LONDON , April G. The dynamite
prisoners were arraigned at the Bow
atreot elation to-day , and chargsd
with having in their possession , with
felonous intent , explosive material.
The dotootlvoa gave a fall his
tory of their chsao after
Norman and IGay , and a number of
points which In their opinion
pointed to his guilt and to Intimate
relations between him and the other
prisoners. It transpired that the
name of the man whom Norman
alleges engaged him as clerk Is
Fletcher. The detectives deposed
that on Norman's person was found a
telegram signed Fletcher. At the
conclusion of the testimony nil were
remanded without bail , although their
counsel strongly nrged ball 'be
allowed.
LOHUON , April G The interest In
the nitroglycerine discoveries continue
to grow , and the excitement is Intense ,
The papers nro making the most of
their opportunity and selling frequent
editions with headings : "A plot to
blow up London. " The contents of
the editorials and local norrs seek to
connect the arrest of the four dyna
mite parsons with the advice given by
O'Donovan Rosea to Irishmen to burn
everything In Eagland except their

The house in Nelson square , at
Lambeth , where Wilson and ( Gallagher -
> gher , the , dynamite fiends , were ar-
"restod yesterday , has been plaoad un
der police surveillance , aud all person *
entor.lnR.fvre carefully torntlnlzjd and
notes taken of their personal appoar- '
anoe. The police hope that In this
way they may secure evidence upon
which to base farther arrests , as they
are convinced that Ihoro are numerous
accomplices of the men already incus
tody still at large. One evidence - f E
this is the faci just made public ,
that large sums of in mey at regular
Intervals have been deposited at the
bank of Englannd to the credit of the
men held in custody in the Dabin !
jalla for the Phciiix murder and
other murders. The authorities have
made a vigorous search for the source
of these deposits , bat have not yet
been unable to discover It. Henry Dal
ton , who was arrested at the Ameri
can exchange yesterday in connection
with the dynamite plots , reached
England anoording to the
Information obtained from police
sources to-day , some time In February.
In appearance he was unassuming and
maintained a quiet and reserved do
moanor. While loitering abon it
Bowies' American reading room hi
appeared to bo more interested in
the E jglish papers than the American
periodicals and was especially con -
cerned to get the latest no ira. It Is
understood Norman's connsel base th o
defense on a plea that he was an inno
cent agent and was employed in the
capacity of clerk for a limited time by
a man from the United States who 1 ts
not arrested yet. It will bo hold tha it
Norniiu was in entire ignorance of th 10
act that the box contained the torrlb !
explosives. It is alleged by the p r-
tles who claim to have some knowl I-
edge of Norman , that ho is of respect *
able birth and education and came to :
England expecting to' find employ
mont. No arrests have beem made in
London except the four reported yes
terday.
The prisoners ware arraingod
in Bow street court this morn-
Ing. Justice Inghan , who pre
sided , Informed them they were
brought before the bar upon the
charge of having in their possession
explosive material , with the Intent tense
nso the same for felonious purposes
The statute provides ooranns convict
ed of thla crlma ah ill bo lisblo to pun
ishment of two yuarj at hard labor.

The prisoners wore pat down'on the
charge Rheot as : Norman , aged 22
Gallagher , 33 ; Wilson 22 ; Dalton 39.
Ddton la alee known by the alias
as John O'Omnor. When the
prisoners marched into the dock
a atalwart politician was stationed behind
hind each. They ate intelligent men
well dressed and have every appear
anca of being not- only rospaotabk
but educated. The evidence both
direct and circumstanclal was glvot
almost entirely by tha detectives
They deposed they followed Normar
from the dynamite factory In Blrmln ?
ham to his hotel In this city ; that the ]
dogged his footiteps Wednesday
evening , and finally arrested htn
late at night. When made a prlsono
he declared he had no idea what the <
box contained , yet In his pockets wen
keys which exactly fitted the
box. The detectives' also . fount
on htm a | 0 note will
the stamp , "N. Y. , March 10 , "
printed thereon. Among other arti
cles taken from htm was a map ot
London , and an envelope addressed
"Gallashor , American Exchange. "
The officers statid ho also bad In his
pocket a telegram directing him to
call on Fletcher at Oharlng Gross
hotel ( Fletcher Is the person who
according to Norman , engaged him to
carry the dynamite box taken from
htm. ) In regard to Wilson and Gal
lagher , the evidence of the policemen
who arrested them was not loss con
vincing. Tlioy deposed when they In
quired of Wilson what ho had In
his portmanteau , ho curtly replied ,
"You had hotter look. " They
examined it , and found rubbers bags
containing the liquids already de
scribed. Gallagher denied having
any knowledge of those bags or their
contents. Although Gallagher was
arraitod in Nelson cquare , ho g&vohls
acdress as Charing Gross hotel. It
was remarked at this point in the pro
ceedings that a oluo to Gallagher's
connection with Norman was the en
velope found on Norman directed to
Gallagher , and Fletcher's dispatch to
Norman asking him to call at the
place which Gallagher claimed aa his
residence , The police stated further
that they found at Gallagher's rooms
more rubber bags like those in the
portmanteau , besides a quantity of
money and a letter of orrdlt for $000
dated Now York , March 13 Gallagher
interposed with a remark that the
much talked about liquid was merely
hydrate of chloral , and if the rubber
baqs were uiploiivo that was indeed anew
now discovery In respect to the ad
dress ot Dalton , alias OIGonuor , the
polloa testified that ho refused to give
any address except Bowlo's reading
rooms , 14 Edward place , Folham road.
Ho was , However , searched and some
pieces of fuse and a thermometer
found. Dlton hero eald contemptu
ously , "Tho f aso you found woo mere
ly a cigar lighter. " The police con
tinued , they learned the whereabouts
of Dalton's lodging house by shadowIng -
Ing him to that address. They found
open him a diary which contained a
receipt for the manufacture of ful
minate of mercury and other chemical
compounds. Dalton hero reiterated
his denial that he not had
the slightest acquaintance with
the other prisoners or any
knowledge of them. Norman's coun
sel wan Win. Dovtton Smyth , the
other prisoners having 'no legal
advtavra except as he acted incident-
al'y for them. He made little com
ment on the testimony and confined
his remarks to an uraent appeal on
the question if bill , which ho asked
to bo allowed lo give for his client.
Ho said Norman had boon in the
country only about a week.
Judge Ingham refused to grant the
request of Gallagher and Norman
that their money be restored to them ,
and cloning the preliminary examina
tion said he would remand them until
Thursday without bail. Additional
precautions were taken to guard the
Bow street prison , and the prisoners
Norman , Gillrgher , Wilson and Dalton
are carefully watched.
The stock of explosii ca discovered
by the police at Wnltohead's manufac
tory in Birmingham has beeo exam.
loed i by the government Inspector ,
who reports that he found among
other articles for the destruction of life
and property 170 pounds of nitre-
glycerine. The government has al
ready taken action looking to an
amendment of the law In regard to the
possession of explosives. Sir William
Harcourt , home secretary , announced
this nfieruoon in the commons that on
Monday next ho would Introdnco a
bill to that effect , and would ask the
house to facilitate the passage of the
bill , In order to secure Its speedy"on
actment. , The annjnncemeut of the
government's Intention to deal with
thn matter was received with cheers
by the house.
A communication regtrded by the
police authorities as of the greatest im
portance was recelvedyesterday evening
by "G" division. Tae communication
was to the effect that a large quantity
of dynamite had been consigned from
Liverpool to the address within the
territory of " 0" division , which In
clude St. James , Haymarket and H i-
gent streets. It Is expected arrests uf
greater importance than those already
imade will be eflected.
An Infernal machine of the most
scientific and destructive character has
been found during the last few days.
Tne police propose to publish a des-
orlptton of the mechanism of this in-
strument. The magisterial Investiga-
tlon will show the persons arrested in
London , Liverpool , Birmingham and
Cork , are all members of the same or-
ganlzatlon which bos baen supported
Iby funds regularly received from
tAmerica. . It Is reported a plan of
both houses of parliament was found
on one of the prisoners.
Special detectives were placed at all
itho depots where trains arrive from
from the north. It , is probable that
within a few days the nltro-glycorlno
ataken to the Flumstead marshes will
abe removed and rendered harmless ,
by being spread on plowed land. The
receptacles which contained It will be
cleaned and produced as evidence at
the magisterial inquiry.
Dalton describes himself as a corn-
itpooltor. . The arrest of Norman was
nmade too hastily , It appears , as ho was
to moot Flocthor lately In the day.
If allowed to keep this arrangement
; the police could have arrested both
men. It Is reported Norman has
made overtures to the authorities
with the idea of turning Informer ,
The note found on Norman was
similar to those found )

, Gillagher and Wilson. The police
arwho escorted the prisoner from Bow |
street to the house of detention wore
armed vrlth revolvers which have
boon at the Bow street station but
. , not used since the Fenian outrages of
1867.
17Tho analysis of the liquid found in
the dynamite factory at Birmingham ,
shows that If it remained on hand tna
few days longer It must have exploded
: from inherent defects In the mannfao-

flNelion square , Lambeth , was the
place of fenUn refuge In 1867. Tne
prisoner , Henry Dalton went tore
America 10 years ago. He stayed
same tlmo in Now York state , then
wont to Now Jersey , where ho pur
sued the calling of compositor. Dai-
ton's parents state they know nothing
knothlng about the prisoner's affalu.
Dalton first appeared at Bowies'
American reading room the 10th of
March , having made the voyage from
America in a White Star stoamor.
A man known as "Flaherty , " ar
rested at Birmingham , Is believed to bo
Fletcher. When Whltehoad was ar-
rcstod ho mndo a great effort to got a
bottle of liquid from a cupboard. The
windows of Whltohead'a rooms were
lined with gauze to prevent missiles
eutorlug. One hundred aud seventy
pounds of nitro-glycorlno in White-

points of the R&ruo were nervousness
on the part of both players. A Quo
rally toward the close by Schaufor
after Vignoaax , through extreme nor-
vousucBK , failed to profit by two or
throe good opportunities , won the
game. So nervous , Indeed , was Vlg-
nonux , that ho could not retain his
seat while hii oponont was playing ,
but moved excitedly about , while per
spiration stood out In great drops on
his forehead. Sohaofer won the load
and ohoso the black ball , Ho failed
to count on the firat stroke nud was
followed by Ylgneanx with a run of
11. Then Sohaofor irathorod
38 on his string ; Yignoaux
made 4 in his second , leaving the balls
in bad position , and Sohaofor failed to
count. The first point of special In
terest was by Yignaux In the fifth In
ning , when , having conquered for a
time his nervousness In the previous
Innings , ho ran 139 , the game then
standing Bhaofor 79 , Vlgnanx 170.
Bohaofer then took the balls , aud by
the most brilliant play conceivable ,
Including open and close caroms ,
around the table , draws , masses and
rail naming , amassed a total of 220
The call then stood , Sohaoftr 299 ,
Vignaux 17f > . The next notable per
formance by Vignanx was In the
eighth Inning , In which ho counted77 ,
and In the twelfth inning , when ho
scored 101) ) , Schaefer maklnssmall runs
until the 17th , when he added 95
points by rapid piny. The score then
stood 448 to 423 In Schaofor's favor.
In the 18th Inning Yignanx made 52 ,
and both began to show great nervous
ness , ranking small runs and mUscs in
the last half of the 20tb , with the
game standing 492 tie , Vignanx hud
the balls where ho nhonld have made
the game Dually , but ever careful play
caused him to miss an easy stroke on
the 18th shot. Suhaofer opened the
21st Inning with 108 necessary to
win the game nnd the balls In bad
.position , but the little man succeeded
in making a count and
and after n few shots get the balls
together near the rail. Frqm that
I point to the end his play was most
I I brilliant nnd beyond description.
Again anAftgala thn.b Uk.brokebadly
