Appears In the Case Against Edward J.
Ivory, of London.
A MEMBER OF IRISH SOCIETIES
Who Joined Them as the Paid Agent of
England, Creates a Sensation by His
Appearance Gives His Testimony in
a Thoroughly FrIgktenedManner.
Losuox, Nov. 14. Tho final oxamlnn
ilon of ICdwiiril J. Ivory, nllns Kdwnrd
Hell, tho saloon kocpor of Now York nnil
alleged dynamiter, nt Bow street pollco
court yesterday dovelopoil Into a sensation
equal to tho bxcltotnentcnused by tho rov
elntlonsof tho spy, Iio Caron, somo years
ago.
Tho weekly examination of Ivory havo
been going on nt Bow street every Friday
since ho was brought to London nftor his
arrest at Glasgow, somo two months ago,
on tho charge of being concorneil with
1. J. Tynan, Kcarnoy, Italnos and othors
In a conspiracy to blow up -public and
other buildings with tho uso of ilynnmlto.
Hlthorto, tho testimony has boon of tho
monotonous pollco description, but yester
day tho crown, roprosontod by C. K. GUI,
sprung n sensation In tho shape of tho tes
timony of a government spy, known only
ns '''Jonos," a natlvo of Armagh, Ireland,
who seems to hnvo succeeded In becoming
n mombor of secret Irish organizations In
Now York, under Instructions," and to
havo possessed himself of secrets of tho
Clan-na-Gaol association.
Ivory has hlthorto behaved In n most
unconcerned manner, ns If confident of
acquittal, but whon Jones was placed
In tho wltnoss box tho prisoner's face
ehowod consternation. Ho was completely
staggorod by tho appoaranco of Jonos un
der such circumstances, and great, though
suppressed excitement provallod In court
when a rumor was circulated that tho
proseoutlon oxpoctod tho mysterious wlt
ness, whoso rcnl namo Is kept secret, to
unravel tho secret history of tho "physical
forco" movement In tho United States.
Whon Jonos first appeared on tho wit
nosss stand Mr. Gill asked the presiding
magistrate to stop all skotching in court,
exclaiming that It was of tho utmost lm
portauco that nothing should bo allowed
to transpire to Identify tho wltuoss In tho
future.
But Jonos caused moro oxcltomont dur
ing tho proceedings by suddenly address
ing Magistrate Vaughan, saying:
"A reporter Is taking a skoteh of me. I
fear for my safety."
Tho magistrate, Me. Vnughon, then or
dered tho reporter to desist, but a prison
attendant soon afterwards suld to tho
magistrate:
"A reporter Is writing description of
Jones.
Tho magistrate thoronpon sternly re
marked :
"I will not allow even a written de
scription of tho witness to bo mndo."
Chief Inspector Molvlllo, of Scotland
Yard, who was present In icourt, took an
actlvo part In suppressing tho taking of
descriptions of Jones.
Jonos Is a small, Insignificant looking
man, about flvo feet five Inches high, with
a brown board and mustacho and hair a
hado darker. Ho has a bulging forehead
and black oyes, pale comploxlon, and has
i furtive, shifty look. He was very nerv
ous while In court, and was constantly
pulling his beard. Hespokowlth a pro
nounced brogue. Ho dellvorcd his testi
mony ns though in fear of his life, and
soeinod to bo scared of tho sound of his
voice. In fact, at the close of tho proceed
ings a jailer remarked to a representative
of the Associated Press:
'"Jonos Is a dead man. I am glad I am
not In his shoes.1'
Whon Ivory's counsel asked Jonos to
glvo tho Initials of his namo tho witness
refused. But' the counsel Insisted, and
also 'demanded to know the nddross of
Jones in Now York, 'whereupon tho wit
ness replied: "I fear for my safety, and
doellno to glvo the purtlcular location."
Tho magistrate uphold Jones In his re
fusal, and then followed a dramutlo inci
dent. Counsel for tho prisoner solemnly asked :
"Did you take the oath of tho Clan-na-Gael?"
Upon hearing this question Jones turned
Uvldly pale, hosltatod for a moment, and
then feebly answered :
"Yes."'
Ivory's counsel thoroupon said :
"You woro Intending, at tho Umo, not
to obsorvo It?"
To this question Jonos replied:
"Yes; I did not Intend to observe It"
Counsol thereupon said:
"Havo you any respect for tho oath you
havo given horo today r"
"Yes," replied Jones In a woak voice.
This Incident caused the deepest Impres
sion upon all prosont In tho court room.
Heplylng to questions upon tho part of
Mr. GUI, who prosecuted for the treasury
department, Jones suld ho was a natlvo of
Armagh; that ho was employed by the
British government to make Inquiries ut
Manchester In 1800, and that in 1S01 ha
was sent to America, whero ho resumed
his inquiries.
In November, 1S91, Jonos contlnuod, ho
entered tho employ of wholesale grocers of
New York olty and remalnod with thorn
until 1805, when ho opened his own busi
ness. Jonos, It nppcars, remained In Now York
until September of the prosont year, all
the tlmo, apparently, "making inqulrlos"
for tho British government.
Ho added that early In 1803 ho mot Will

tional Alliance) and Bolaud.ot Now York

Irish Nationalists' organization, known
among its members ns tho "United Irish,"

Two of the Prisoners Convicted

at
ONE SETS UP AN EFFECTIVE ALIBI.
McDermott Is Set at Liberty, But a Jury
Promptly Convicts Wilson and Gauger.
Crawford tho star Witness-Two
More Men Wanted.
Two of the men arrested fur attacking and
gagging the watchman and blowing open the
safe nt the Cambridge colliery on tho Otli of
September, last, weio convicted beforo Judgo
Savidgoat Pottsvillo yesterday. The testi
mony was of such a character that the jury
deliberated but a short tlmo. Tho third
man arrested was acquitted. He succeeded
in establishing an ell'ectivo alibi.
Tho two men convicted wero Jehu Wilson
and Gils Ganger. Both aro men of Imd
record from Jit. Carmel. Wilson was re
cently tried nt Stiubury with Jllko Kline, of
town, and others for assaulting a watchman
at tho Alaska colliery, near Mt. Uinnel, but
that case fell through for lack of evidence.
At the trial yesterday it was conclusively
shown that upon being released from tho
Sunbury jail Wilson went to Mt. Carmel
and joined Ganger and two other men and
camo to this town. After spending a day or
two in inspecting the surroundings tho men
made tho attack upon the Cambridge colliery.
lliomas D Connell, the watchman, was a
witness at tho trial, but his testimony was of
no Importance beyond establishing the mode
of tho attack, tho safe blowing and tho
number of men engaged in It. Ho could not
identify any of tho prisoners as being con
cerned in tho atlalr. He said the robbers had
their faces covered with pieces of cloth up to
their eyes and did not lcmovo them whilo in
his presence.
The ftar witness in tho case was a man
named Bobcrt Crawford, of Mt. Carmel. In
previous reports of tho case ho has been
referred to as "John Smith." Crawford and
another tramp lodged in the boiler house of
tho colliery on tho night of the rubbery.
While they were there Wilson, Ganger and
two other men entered tho boiler house and
engaged in a conversation. Crawford know
all of the men by sight and two or three of
them quite intimately. Ho made their
acquaintance at Mt. Carmel. Tho visitors
advised Crawford and the tramp to seek
lodgings at the lockup instead of in the
boiler house. That was tho substance of
tho conversation. Tho fuur men left
tho place and shortly after tho robbery
was committed. Early in tho morning
Crawford and his tramp companion wero
found asleep in the boilerhou'o by tho C. &
I. police and charged with the crime. The
tramp's namo was William Downs and rosi
douce given ns no place in particular. Tho
two men wero taken into custody. They told
the tnry of tho visit made by the four men
the night beforo and Crawford gave their
names and residences as well as ho could re
call them. This did not satisfy tho pollco
and to save himself from tho charge Craw
ford agreed to run duwn the men. Upon thi
condition ho was released and allowed to
travel in search of the robbers at will, but
under tho survcilanco of the C. & 1. police,
somo of whom kept up a hot sinri'h
in olhor directions. Tho arrest of Wilson
at Biversidc, near D-.mvillo, followed a
few days later and Crawford positively
identified him as one of tho four robbers.
About thrco days latter Gaugor was traced
from Ccutmlia to Mt. Carmel and he, too,
was positively identified by Crawford. Sub
sequently Thomas McDermott was aricsted
on tho outskirts of Mt. Carmel by Detective
Amour, upon being led by Crawford to a
place whore McDermott was mending u shoe
under a bower formed by fallen trees. When
brought hero ami arraigned lieforo Justice
Curd in McDermott stoutly maintained his
Innocence and declared that on tho day of
the robbery ho worked for a farmer at
Ithaca, N. Y., digging potatoes. Crawford
was positivo that McDermott was ouo of the
robbers and ns tho accused had only his own
oatli to oiler ut tho time, and as Wilson and
Gauger had just as firmly declared their in
nocence, it was decided to hold McDermott
and ho remained in jail until yesterday,
when ho was given his liberty. Ho showed
conclusively that ho was in Ithaca at the
tlmo the robbery was committed. The Ithaca
farmer gavo ovidenco for him.
Gauger and Wilson have been remanded.
Ganger will probably bo sentenced next
week. Wilson's lawyors havo moved for an
arrest of judgment and now trial. Two of
tho robbers are still at largo.
