APPEALS TO UNCLE SAM. F. 9. Tynan, the Irish •-InTinclble." Ask* Protection as American Citlsen. Boulogne, S«pt 15.—P. J. Tynan, the Irish “invincjEk" who was arrested here Sunday morning, was arraigned before the public procurer Monday morning. Be admitted that he was th* man described in the warrant of arrest, and was remanded pending the arrival of the papers required to effect his extradition to England. London. Sept 15.—A report is in circulation here that it was the intention of Tynan to perpetrate an outrage at Balmoral castle during the visit of the czar to Queen Victoria at that place. The rumor is probably due to the story told by Tynan during his tour of the I continent that he was a courier of the queen intrusted with an autograph letter from her majesty to be delivered to the czar at Copenhagen. The formabcharge made against Bell, the alleged dynamiter, arrested in Glasgow, is that he contravened section 59 of the ex-plosive substances act of 1883, which declares that any person while a subject of her.majesty, the queen, who shall supply material or aid or abet crime under the act is thereby guilty of felony.
