White- head himself was taken into custody when the police made the descent on the den, and {s now in close confine- was not oconfined to the government officers but was apparent on the street to even the most causual obaerver. The prompt action of the government officers {8 highly commended. The postoflice and neighboring government property was placed under increased guard, and the royal residences at ‘Windsor given a large force of senti- nels, sent thither in a private manner. This precaution was made neces- sary e the government cfticoss-Yearned late last night that in cohnection with the discovery of the dynamite factory in Birmingham some conspirators were already on the way to Windsor from Blrmingham, It is stated in official circles that there is reason to belleve that the whole in- cendlary and dynamite conspiracy here and in America will now be laid bare and the number of arrests shortly increased. The man first arrested last night near Fleet straet had engaged rooms on Southampton street, corrner of Strand, giving his name es Ormund and statlng that he was a medical student. Sabsequently he said his correct name was Norman, The first irquiry for cooms was made by an elaerly man. A box of explosives was taken to Norma lodging by a person of rakish appear- ance, who looked more like a trawp or street {dler than a porter of friend of the stadent. It is belteved thls individual and the elderly mau have been captured in the person of two men arrested at Lam- beth, Oae of these men had in his pockets and sewed up in his clothing a large sum of money, a portion which was In American cotns, Street ramor made free use of American’s namo and connected many Irish-American's with the plot. One of the Lambeth zoners had secured lodgings iu the name of Wilson. His movements ex cited so much suspicion among hls nelghbors that he lefc his room yester- day saying it was his Intention to go to Wolverhampton, When hereturn- ed at noon to-day he was surprised to find slx detectives awaiting him, Norman undoubtedly came direct from Birmingham, Where he was stopping wae just over the cffice where {s printed the Court Circu'ar. The proprietor of that shest recently re- celved letters containing dire threats, the origin of which he has now no ment. A considerable quantity of nitro-glycerine was we:zed by the offi- ocers at the samo time, Ioformation now in the hands of the detective tends to demonstrate that this place is the central manufactory of explo- sives and the most important depnt of all infernal contrivances in the king- dom. Whitehead, who is described a8 a man about 25 years of age, dark complexion, and with marked Ameri- can accent, He has been {n the habit of purchasing supplies of nitro-glycer- ine and aclds which are necessary to ron his business, The chemists at Woolwich are en- gaged in an examination of the mate- rial. The police regard the arrest as a most Important one. This is evi- denc:d by the fact that since it was made, precautionary measures have been renewed. Eipecial attention is now beirg glven to the protection of baildings in which are located the offizes of the ministry and all public cflicials, Extra sentinels are posted at Windsor castle and the postcflize. Policamen and detectives are keeping close watch on suspiclous localitles, THE RUBBER BAGS found in Norman's quarters contained nitro glycerine In eufficlent quantity to bluw up any town in the kingdom. The police believe Norman was en- gaged in a plan to carry out the dyna- mite doctrines which are particalarly fostered by O'Donavan Rozsa. Henry Dalton is » man «f shore stature and pock-marked. He was an cccasional caller at Bowles' American reading room, 14 Strand. This arrest was effected owing to in- formation derived from papers fcund on other prisoners. It is believed by the authorities that Dalton is an emfs- sary of the dynanite faction 1n Amer- fica. The man arrested with Wilson at Lambsth is named Gallagher. The papess found upon him prove his con- nectfon with Whiteh Woolwich authorities pronounce the compound found at Lambeth nitro-glycerine and identical with that found 10 Norman's quarters. Gallagher’s portmantean was packed with explosives, Dalton is suspected of balng the perpetrator of the outrages in theoffico of the local fiovernment board, West- minster. The prisoners were not ar- ralgned, because In view of the docu- ments selzed, the police have declded to make other arrests, which they thought might be frustrated if the evidence in their possession was made public. Norman describes himself as a coachman, Wilson oclaims to be a clerk, a Gallagher a physician, POLICE BUPPOEITIONS, The police belleve the Birmingham factory one of a serles which exists in great towns, Evldence Is accamaulat- ing that the persons arrested are con- nected with the invincibles. Dyna- mite used in the Westminister explo- slon was undoubtedly made at one of the factorles of the soolety. Nor- man’s boxes were barredor theoateide with wood for the better protection of the contents and fitted with handles, After the contents had been tested at Woolwiob, the bex was taken to the magezine at Plumstead marshes, where 1t will be kept in .water uatil the «(flislals can safely dispos=d ot the coutente, It is believed the name Whitehead is an allas end that the police know the proper neme, but wish to keep it se- cret for the present.

The stock in the house coneisted of fourteen carboya holding ten gallons each of sulphuric and nitric acld, a great number of cava of glycerine and mixed scids, ten gallons of nitro-glycerine, a coollog machine, hydrometcrs and a varieiy of chomical appliances, It is belteved the governmont in- tends to introduce bill in accordance with Harcourt’s opinion, expressed in the commons, that the present state of law in regard to the poasession of explosives is unsatisfactory. AN EXPLOSIVE BUSINESS, BirmiNaHaM, April 4 —..The city police have made a raid upon the suspecied localities in Lotsam atreet, Ladywood, and discovered a Fanian nitro-glycerine factory in full opera- difficulty in tracing to the prisoner. The fourth arrest was Henry Dal- ton, taken into custody to-night. He came from the United States two weeks ago. He was found at the rooms of the Amerlcan exchange. He made no resistance. Dalton was placed in jall at Scotland Yards. There was no less seneation in the commons when the arrest were an- nounced than elsewhere. Sir Wm. tion, THE DYNAMITE FACTCRY, BirmiNGHAM, April 5.—In accord- ance with the request of the home office, Whitehead was remanded for a week.
