NEW YOKE , October 28 1 a. m.
Xonnard Philp , who waa arrested yea
terdsy for criminal liloel , in the for
gery and publication of the Garfield-
Morey Chinese letter , is a resident o :
Brooklyn. Ho was arrested in the
lobby of a theatre in that city , am
waa brought across the river to New
York , and conducted immediately to
the polica headquarters. He was af
terwards conducted down town to the
district-attorney's office , where he WES
confronted by E. W. Stoughton , who
drew np the papers on which he was
arrested , John L Davenport , ox-
United States District Attorney Geo.
Bliss , and others. Judge Davis was
telegraphed for , and replied that he
would return to the court for tha pur
pose of holding jurisdiction in the
case. It was stated in Davenpoit's
office that it was kuown several days
ago that Philp was the guilly party ,
aince which time ho ha- not bcon al-
owed out of the sight of some oflicers
of the secret service. It was , how
ever , no-essary to get evidence that
would lead to hia coviction , and this
has taken time. The care was worked
up by the detective agency estab
liahod by the former superintendent
of Pinkerton'a agency , and the detect
ives claim that the cvilenca Is condu
cive. The detectives secured posses
sion of the copy of an editorial writ
ten by Philp , and on one of the paijus
has the name of Garfield , In which
the dot was over the c , instead of the
i , as in the forged letter. In several
instances It was found that dots wore
behind the i , instead of over or before
it. There was a remarkable similarity
between the writing of Philp aud the
manuscript of the Garfield letter , and
baviug satisfied himself that he had
found the author of the letter , the
detective presented his evidence to
the state central committee. In the
meantime Sheriff Albert Dag.
; ott , of Brooklyn , had con-
: eived a suspicion of Philp.
Hunting around he found an ordur
.hat Philp had written , aud n com
parison of which with the manuscript
mtisfied him that ho nad unraveled
the knot. This order was sent to the
: ommiBsioners , aud all specimens of
Philp's writiii- . ' , together with the
'orgod letter , wero-put into the hands
of Payne , the espert-and several
othera of hio profession. Their ro-
jorts we'retuado separate , and were
all to the effect that the man who
rrota the Philp uvmuscript mmt
lave beun the forger. While wait ,
ng { n the .district attorney a office.
Philp summonedhis counsel , who are
3en. BogerA. Pryor , Ex-Surrogato
Veeder , of Brooklyn , dies. Brooke
and Messrs. Howe and Hammcl , the
Tombs lawyers. Shortly before 3
o'clock , Philp was lakon Into the
upreme court , where Judge Noah
Oavis presided. The court room wai
densely crowded. The prosecution
TSS represented by Messrs. Stoughton ,
vnor , Bliss , Davenport aud Assistant
Attorney Bell. The case was opened
) y Mr. Bell , who charged the prisoner
vith criminal libel on Jas. A. Garfiold.
On complaint of Goo. Bliss. Mr. Bell
read various affidavits on which the
prisoner was arrested. Hundreds of
yes were in a moment directed on
? hilp. Gen Pryor asked :
"Is there any occasion to read these
affidavits ? "
Mr. Bell said it waa necessary that
ill these things be spread over tha
uinutes of the court.
Gen. Prior "Your honor has
icard these affidavits before , LBO you
would not have issued the warrants. I
do not think that the time snould be
consumed in going ovet them sgaln , "
Mr. Brooke submitted that it was
an { novation in criminal practice to
ubject the prisoner to further annoy
ance , when ho was prepared to waive
examination and to furnish bail.
Judge Davie "These papers are
not. of course , to bo read as evi-
'
onc'e. "
Mr. Boll then again continued : "On
or about the 20th of October he
caused to be published in The Truth
a malicious libel against James A.
Garfield. "
Gen. Prior hero again interposed
and said , "Thero is a grand jury now
n session and wo demand an imincd-
ate trial. Wo respectfully submit
hat thii is a right to which our client
s justified in demanding. Wo are
> repared to go into trial before a jury
o-morrew , if necessary , and the pres
ent proceeding is of no va'ue. "
Judge DAVIS said that be did not
understand that the prisoner had n
right to insist ou waving an examin
ation. Eight pages of Pnilp's manu
script were produced , with the
affidavits of the several experts at-
achcd , to the effect that in their ppin-
on Philp wrote the Garfield Chinese
etter. Judge Davis dented the mo-
ion to discharge the prisoner , holding
hat the affidavits were sufficient ,
Bnd the alleged libel was of a
character to bring ridicule and con-
cmpt on Garfield. "After the letter
lad been 'publicly denounced as a
brgerv , this man denounces the man
who vindicates himself as a liar , and
leld him up to derision. Under the
aws , as I understand them , if public
levrepapera charges man with beiu a
iar , f tic 11 or forger , the editor is
; uilty of a libel unless the charges
ire true. "
Gen. Pryor said : "Wo ara ready
, o try the case at once , and are willing
o waive the benefit of an examination.
We know our client is innocent of the
chayge and we desire a speedy trial.
f the prosecution are not ready , I
uriro that the court fix the amount of
bail. "
After some argument Judge Davis
fixed the bail at 55,000. The bail was
mniahed , and Mr. Philp then left the
court room in company with hiacoun-
eL The examination will bo con-
inued at 11 o'clock to-day. It is re-
> orted that when the case comes to
rial , Ben. Butter will act aa senior
countol for Philp.

It is stated that buOhlo had crossed
the Missouri river wrat of old Fort
Peck , and were going northwaat !
toward Brown's creek , fifty miles
south of the boundary. The pralrio
was fairly covered with buffalo. Maj.
Walsh thinks they are making for
Wood mountain , which in a nittu-al
herding ground. Should they do so
the Indians will have no difficulty in
securing a sufficient amount of meat
for the winter. Should Sitting BuU's
band attack them , ru they advance
toward the line , it ii probable that
the herds willretu'nto their former
icrding grounds. It is not likely ,
liowoVer , that Sitting Bull , who is an
experienced huntsman , will do EO ,
jut on the contrary , will attack the
lufialo from the rear , and thus drive
them in the direction of Wood
mountain.

LONDON , October 28 1 a. m.
A dispatch hai been received from
Lord Ripen , the viceroy ol India ,
stating that no post had arrived from
Gtbul since the llth hist. All the
information concerning the affairs at
C.ibul is dor ved from rumors , and
even these are scarcely tholoast au
thentic. Newuwas received that the
ameer hadb. ; n assassinated , and that
anarchy prevailed. The feature of all
commuimations since the 14th leads
to the belief that the
state of things at Cabul
and between that point and the En

cupied ground running from Twelfth
to Thirteenth street , and half way
back along the block from Eighth to
Ninth avenue. The building was of
brick , highly ornamental in its con
struction , and five stories high. On
the nor h aide of the street was a row
of four buildings , occupied by the
employes , and all these , with
mo.it of their contents also burned. In

charred timber and iron works. It
appears the company manufactured irs
own gas. The supply gave out last
night and the workmen neglected to
turn oft- the atop cocks. Meanwhile
the gaa generator was kept going and
aa soon as the supply was sufficient the
flow commenced again through open
jots , filling the building. A watchman
entered the building with a lighted
lantern , when a loud explosion oc-
cured and the flames immediately
leaped outcf the shattered windows.
The loss is estimated at 8500,000.

LADIES AND GBNTLKMBN You have
no idea what it Is to mo to luok upon
; his circla of friends. There has been
a seed many s'mngcn in this y.ml in
the last tv.ro weehfl. There are some
strangers perhaps , here now , but in
, his circio , all along its lno ! , there
r faces that fl.wh bick to mo the
nomorics of these twenty years past.
Memories full of struggle , full of
question , full of events , full offriend-
sliip , full of victories , full of
all that goes to make up
the lifo and private friend
ship of this Western Reserve
ror the period of at leadt eighteen
poara. You cannot know what strength
; t bringi to mo to SCO these friends
who have stt od by net me alone , but
by the cause that they believed I re
presented , and have stood by it in a
most useful , earnest , intelligent ,
Forcible and effective manner during
those years. Why , I see men in
this circio who in the whole of this
long time have never betrayed to me
by any sign or any word that they
had the least purpose of their
own to serve , but only the purpose to
servo their country and ita best inter
ests ; and that their friendship for me
was largely , if not altogether , becauee
they thought I was capab'o of ren
dering some good service to the cause
they luvcl and the country they re
vored. Well , a man with such friend
ship around him , and with such sup
ports behind him , would bo a very
poor piece of timber , indeed , if he
jid not amount to something. Out
of the soil of such hearts as
these , out of the forces of such people
ple as these , they can grow all that is
iiost in our civilization and under our
institutions. I know not what awaits
me in the future. I never discount
it so far as it relates to myeelf. I
never allow myself to be elated with
what msybe , nr r depressed with what
might have been. I do Bay this , that
[ cannnot conceive that the
time can over como when
the friendship of these men
that are gathered In this yard to-day ,
can be anythiny but dear to me , and
the greatest possible value in strength
ening my heart and hope whatever
the field may be. I thank you , gen
tlemen , that out of this inclement day
and with all circumstances ap
parently against it , you have
nade your way hero to
my home , that you have formed a
circle about it that will not disappear
when you are gone. It will seem to
me in all times to come as I stand up
on this portal that a circle of my old
constituents and friends have left
: heir guardianship and love circling
about my door , I welcome you.
