Lord Hartington, in reply, refused to fix any date for the discussion of the motion. Later. Intelligence is to hand from New York that, in compliance with the demand of the British Government, a warrant has been issued by the American authorities for the arrest of Sheridan, who is alleged to be implicated in the operations of the Assassins' Committee in Ireland.
