THE KELLY GANG.
.* - RISING OF SYMPATHISERS. (by cable.) Melbourne, June 30. It is currently reported that Hart's brother, with 50 armed men, is at Greta township, about seven miles from Glenrowan, the scene of Monday's tragedy, and intends to resist the holding of an inquest on the bodies of Dan Kelly, Steve Hart, and Byrne. Strong bodies of police, fully armed, have been sent from Benalla and Wangaratta to Glenrowan. It is feared that terrible bloodshed may result if the rumor prove correct, and there is great excitement everywhere in consequence. Later.
Nothing further has been received from Greta. The coroner has permitted the hur|al of the bodies of the outlaws without holding an inquest. The police will therefore refrain from going to Greta, and the excitement is gradually subsiding.
