The Testimony of a Man Compelled to
Give Evidence Unfavorable to Parneli.
LONDON, December 5.-Upon opening the
Parnell commission, Sergeant, this morn.
ing, read a report OF a speech by Tanner,
| member of Parliament for the middle di.
vision OF Cork, d~enouncing a nan named
Haggerty who had been b~oycotted.
Other witnesses swore they knew OF cases
OF bog cotting and outrage. Being cross.
examined, all testified they knew OF persons
who had written threatening letters to
themselves, their object being to excite
sympathy. The League, they said, de
nounced outrages and was mainly instru'
mental in securing reductions OF rent, which
were very properly requested after the bad
seasons of 1873 and 1879. These wit
nesses said it was their belief that if the
reductions had been voluntarily granted,
the country would have remained peace
ful.
Walsh, ex.Secretary of the Kildemough
County Mayo, branch league, testified that,
by order of the league, several persons had
been boycotted for refusing TO join the plan
of campaign. On cross-examinatlon, wit
ness admitted he had been charged with
| p~ilfering funds and had been

| He also admitted that he had been agent
for a glass insurance company and had
been discharged by the company for max
| ing fraudulent claims for damages to win
dows in his mothers house. He also at
tempted to defraud the Gresham Life In
surance Co. Replying to Davitt, witness
said that the police intimated to him that
they did not know what would befall him
in connection with those insurance matters
if he refused to give evidence on behalf o.
the Times" and that he then consented
TO testify.

DISCONTENT IN GERMANY.
The Emperor Beginning to Show HIS
Hand in Connection with the Military.

The Emperor Beginning to SHOW HIS
Hand in Connection with the Military.
BERLIN, December 5--The Emperor
drove out, to-day, his first outing in ten
days.
The latest order issued by the emperor
is one prohibiting officers in Berlin and
other towns, under penalty of arrest, from
using civilians dress when off duty. The
custom has been growing among officers to
throw aside their military garb on every
possible occasion. This does not meet the
emperor's aim, his object being to glorify
military functions.
The report that the government intended
to ask a proportion OF the 100000 o
marks for field artillery, became q subject
for question in the Reichstag. General
| Won schellendorf admitted that it was
true, but it was untrue that U
marks would be demanded. This left the
l.members in the lark al to hat amount
would be demanded and increased as pre-
| viously agreed upon.
The spread of Socialism appears to AFFECT
| even veteran sol Tiers associations. Uneasy
under the Indications of the discomfort Of
| the veterans, the Emperor desires that no
| soldiers associations, old or new, be au
| thorized unless the statutes OF such asso
I citation Get t4ias an article affirming a.
tachment and devotion to the Emperor
| Such associations must also preclude iron
| discussion at their meetings all political anf
religious questions.
