THE FOUR MEN ARRESTED IN LONDON AND THE EYI- DENCE AGAINST THEM, The men arraigned in the Bow street court, London, yesterday, asstated in Tag Star, for hay- ing explosive material, were put down on the charge sheet as Norman, aged 22; Gallagher, aged $3; Wilson, aged 22; Dalton, aged 89. Dalton Is also known by the alias of John O'Connor. When the prisoners were marched into the dock a stale Wart policeman was stationed behind each one of them. They are all intelligent men, are well dressed, and have every appearance of belng not only respectable, but educated. The evidence was direct and circumstantial, coming almost entirely from the detectives. They testified that they found. in Norman’s pocket a key that opened the box and also a telegram directing him to call on Fletcher, at Charing Cross hotel. Fletcher ts the person who, accord to Norman, e hin to carry the dynamite box that was taken from him. They found in Wilson’s portmanteau rubber bags, containing liquids, and also found in Gallagher's rooms more rubber bags like those in the satchel. The latter interrupted the testimony by exclaiming that the liquid was merely hydrate of chloral. In Daiton’s possession some pleces of fuse and a thermometer were found. Dalton cried out contemptuously, “The fuse you found was merely a cigar lighter.” They also found upon him a book containing a recipe for the manufacture of fulminate of mercury and other chemical compounds. The prisoners were all remanded without bail, THE CORK DYNAMITERS, Carmody, O’Herlishy and Featherstone, the men arrested on charge of being dynamite carriers, had & re-examination in Cork yesterday, which was conducted with the utmost privacy.

In reference to the conference between repre- sentatives of the Washington Gas Light company and the District Commissioners Thursday, Com- missioner West said toa Star reporter thst the way the question came up was this: He foresaw that the gas company wanted to tear up the streets, and several weeks ago he sent for Mr. Bailey, of the gas office, and had a long tall with him about the way gas is supplied, and on parting Mr. Batley prot to let “ Bartol know what the views of the District Commissioners were upon the subject, and an arrangement was made that upon his (Mr. Bartol's) return from Fiorida he ‘would call and see the Commissioners, which he did. Commissioner West says he has’ all aloug thought that the District government, as well ax private citizens, were paying too much for their Gas; he holds that every inducement in the world which citizens can make to encourage visitors to come to this city, by making it pleasant and agree- able as a home, should be held out to them. One of these points 1s to have a well lighted city and cheap ‘as for general use. The minimum price had not en reached by along ways. He said this gas company should not be allowed to go on and tear up the streets and avenues for their own convent- ence and profit without some phe grag ben- efit to ue people, otherwise they might as well let in an outside company to do the sanfe thing; in which event the citizens might expect some manent benefit by honest competition. He hoped the officers of the gas company would see their own interest by a more ltberal practice towards the city and its residents. soma GEORGE ALBERT Mason’s CLat.—George Albert Mason, who was recently released from the Al- Dany penitentiary, where he had served @ term for serene, , Is in the city, and proposes, ac- co) pul tions in various papers, to sue the government for $50,000 for alleged false im- prisonment.
