Details of the Murder of Detective Cox— Excitement in the City. From the New York Herald, Dec. 11. The events of the last three days have thrown the Irish metropolis into a state of panic quite a8 marked as that which succeeded the assassi- nations in the Phenix park in May last. The | fatal encounter between the detectives and armed men, the daring and almost successful attempt to assassinate a quiet, inoffensive citizen, together with the extraordinary language em- ployed In the House of Commons by the chief secretary, are circumstances calculated to throw | even the most sober-ninded community off its | balance. For some time past, acting appar- ently on good information. the detectives have | hardly for a moment lost sizht of the leaders of | the “assassination ganz,” which ts believed to | be at the bottom of all the recent political mur- ders in Dublin. They have dogged these men ‘on every occasion when they have appeared in the thoroughfares outside their usual haunts, and it was in pursuance of this system of clo: and active surveillance that the detectives came into conflict with the armed ganz in Albybe street on Saturday Three detectiv were keeping aciose watch on five suspecte men from an early hour in the e The men were lurking al ferences | wt of the | sborhond. | inand rious public honses in the Tiiev were evidently aware that a stent watch was being kept on | ments, because they doubled several times attempted to shake off t who were | interiering with whatever 1 had on Seeing that there was’ a chanc hand. f the | gang sepa and thus eluding pursuit, D | tective Eastwood sent one of his men te sistance, and this aid at once arrived in the sons of ‘Inspector St and Williams, bringi at tae opr The sout | sp rators moved slow)y | their part t of three each, quietly fo side.
