THE IRISH QUESTION.

THE RECENT LONDON ARREST.

THE POLICE HISTORY OF THE AFFAIR.

DYNAMITING THREATENED.

tNTENDERED OUTRAGES IN THE METBOPOLI. London, October 30.

The police have published the story connecting the supposed member of the Clan-na-Gael, upon whom an inquest was recently held, with Millar who arrived at Boulogne in April; to arrange the outrages during the Jubilee celebrations, but owing to. a warning from the police never visited England Millar employed Melville and others as agents for contemplated outrages on Balfour. The police cleverly dogged every conspirator in England, Paris, and Boulogne, and Amsterdam. The police tracked the movements of the American dynamitards from France to England, and warned them that they were suspected When their funds were exhausted they returned to America. American dynamiters threaten Balfour if O’Brien is imprisoned, and say they will avenge the loss of life at Mitchelgtown.

The Clan na-Gael programme included outrages at Liverpool, London Glasgow and Cardiff. A. dozen members assisted Melville at Liverpool until the police actually forced them to fly, Many of the farmers of County Clai’6 waht the money they subscribed to the plan of campaign refunded, but -the organisations want the rents received from this source for their own use,

Sir Henry Holland addressed a meeting at Hamstead last night. In referring to Mr Gladstone’s utterances with regard to the Irish question lie said it was practically preaching rebellion to the Irish people. The effect of the speech will be most dangerous, because a largo sense was attributed to meaning more than actual words warranted. .Notwithstanding Mr Gladstone's agitation, the Government have determined to act firmly in dealing with Ireland, Viscount Cranbrook, in his speech at Glasgow, said that Mr Gladstone was the only leading politician in the history of the British Nation who had connived at crime.
