''An American gave me 1900 francs 2

when the American left me we were
thrown into profound misery"
Coming to the Aguetant murder she re-
affirmed her former accusations against
Prado.
'What have said pains me deeply, ;,
she said, "but it is So It is the truth l
have spoken without hatred. Prado Is the
only man have ever loved"
Prado rose here and violent scene fol-
lowed between the former lovers. Prado
reviled the woman before him out
rageously, revealing intimate details OF
mistress of a Turk. The audience laughed,
and the president got angry, saying he
would not allow such levity where mans
life was at stake PradO shrugged his
shoulders scornfully.
After this followed the testimony of the
officers who arrested Prado. One of them
testified that in the encounter Prado had
discharged revolver at him and a ball
had passed through the right cheek and
out below the ear. In spite of the wound
the officer succeeded in arresting the
prisoner. In his opinion Prado had tried
to kill him. Prado rose and denied this,
saying that the shooting was accidental.
THE PARNELL COMMISSION.
LONDON, Nov. AT the sitting of the
Parnell commission today police witnesses
gave testimony regarding outrages in Ire
land, which they believed were due to the
instigation of the league.
Sir Henry James, counsel for the Times,
says that it was difficult to compel witness
to comply with subp9nas. and that he
would be forced to complete the proof OF
certain outrages later.
Several witnesses testified that Land
League hare hunts were organized over
lands belonging to persons who offended
the league, for the purpose of damaging
their crops. Police testimony from Tough
rea, Athenry and other places in Ireland,
showed that prior to the founding of
league branches in those districts the dis
tricts were comparatively free from crime,
and that after league meetings there was
much turbulence, often eliminating III
outrage. 1t was testified that five muir
ders quickly followed the founding of the
Loughrea branch, including the killing Of
Sergeant Linton, who, witnesses averred,
was shot for testifying at the Parneli
trial.
1t is stated that Sir Charles Russell
counsel for the Parnellites, will call wit
ness to swear that he forged the Times
letters, and will show by enlarged photo
graphs on magic lantern that IN tracing
beneath the signature the pen was re-
peatedly stopped in the course Of writing
THE CASE AT EDINBURGH.
LONDON, Nov 9.-Judge Kinnear, in his
decision in the Parnell-Times case at
Edinburgh yesterday, allowed proof as to
what debt had been arrested and what
debtor and creditor relations existed be-
tween the persons arrested and the de-
fender He deferred the question as to
publication in Scotland, preferring that
the whole question of jurisdiction be de-
termined by one interluctor, after having
the facts before him.
The CAR.
LONDON, Nov. 9-Contradictory stories
regarding the car Of Russia are plentiful
here, so contradictory that it is hard to
decide which, if any, to credit. 1t would
would seem certain, however, that i'm
portant changes will shortly be made in
the policy to which he has steadily ad-
hered since his succession to the throne. or
that an alteration will occur in the regime,
either temporarily or permanently, The
life he has led of constant fear and dread
full expectancy since the first attempt upon
his life, has induced nervous disorder,
and his hitherto robust health has yielded
to the steady tension of such an exist
ence.
Despite his temperate and retired life, his
great personal strength has sensibly dimin-
ished much it is said, to his alarm. The
late wrecking of his train in the south of
Russia so completely unnamed him that
il was feared for awhile that his mind
had given away beneath the shock. Since
that time he has been in state of melan
choly, which has alarmed his attendants,
and, although the royal physicians are
strength of will which have hitherto char
acterized him will never return. Always
religious, the devotional exercises now
occupy great portion of his time, and it
is with difficulty that he can be persuaded
to attend to the common routine of bust
ness.
