arrested in Dublin for refusing to obey
subpoena calling on him to give evidence be-
fore the Parnell commission, was examined
by the commission. Attorney General Web
ster, Of The Times counsel, conducted his

with blank denials, and finally Sir Richard
Webster was forced to abandon his examine
ton, having failed to extract the smallest
particle of evidence from Molloy. Mr..
Michael Davitt then took the witness IN
hand. In answer to Mr.. Davitts questions
Molloy said that a solicitors clerk in Dublin

The Senate resumed consideration of the
tariff bill Immediately after reading the

tested against the imposition of duties for
any other purpose than to raise the rev.

bill was brought in for discussion the Dem.

from the Mills bill as amendments. but he
found they were prepared TO criticise and
discuss the Senate bill on its merits. even
after their own plan had been rejected BY
the people.

The Two Reports in the Sullivan -FeItor
Election Contest.

The Two Reports in the SuIlivan-Felton
Election Contest.
WASHINGTON, December 12th.-The ma
iority report in the Sullivan FELTON, con-
tested election attempts to sustain the
charges of bribery, forgery, false count, in
timidation, etc, made by Sullivan. The
minority report is an elaborate document.
1t undertakes to disprove each and every
charge made by Sullivan. 1t saws the
trouble with him is that he could not
understand how, being the nominee of so
many parties, he could possibly be defeated
1t declares that nineteen out of twenty
of the 800 pages of evidence taken by the
contestant is utterly incompetent to prove
any issue made in the case, consisting as it
does of hearsay, gossip aud street rumor.
and declares that the contestants record is
little less than an insult to the committee
and to the House. There is nothing in the
evidence to prove bribery, corruption, un-
due influence or improper conduct on the
contestants part, and the fact is brought
forth that the Democratic Governor, Bart
lett, investigated the charges and refused to
issue a certificate to Sullivan. On the
question Of bribery, the only substantial
proof Is that Sullivan bought seventy or
eighty votes. As to the scratching of votes
with red ink. the committee says that the
laws of California forbid the use of pasters.
