LONDON, Oct. 26.-When the Parnell
Commission resumed its sitting to-day,
Sir Charles Russell, counsel for Mr.. Par
nell, demanded the production of GER
tain letters which the Times possessed
and which were alleged to have been
written by Mr.. Dillon, Mr.. Beggar and
other members Of Parliament. He said
that Mr.. Soames, the Times solicitor, had
filed an affidavit affirming that the Times
had received the documents from an
American named Roberts; that some Of
them proved to be bogus and that on this
account they had not been used in the
0'Donnell case. This admission that
somebody was supplying the Times with
forged letters, said Sir Charles, had a
direct bearing upon the Parnell. .Egan
iorgeries. The documents must there
fore be produced.
Attorney General Webster held that
the documents demanded were not ma
terial TO the issue. The affidavit Of
Saomes showed clearly that somebody
had been trying to trick the Times, and
knowledge OF the trick had been COM
municated to Mr.. Parnells solicitor.
The court ordered that the documents
be produced. Sir Charles Russell then
asked for particulars Of the charges
against Mr.. Parnel and those involved
with him.
The Attorney General informed the
court that the other side still continued
to disobey the order for the production
Of the leagues bank books. Justice
Hannen intim ated that il the refusal to
produce the books was final the court
would have recourse to its powers to
compel their production.
Attorney General Webster then con-
tinued the presentation OF the Times
case, making a further review OF the
articles on Parnellism and crime. He
declared that evidence would be ad-
duced proving that Mr.. Parnell knew
that Patrick Egan had supplied Sheridan
and Boyton with funds to enable them
to promote outrages.
Mr.. Michael Davitt claimed the right
to appear for himself. The Court as
serted, Justice Hannen, the President OF
the Commission, said the Court was OF
opinion that all the particulars were
being given which were required.
Patrick Egan on the parnell.TimeS Suit.
CHICAGO, Oct. 24.-Patrick Egan, of
Lincoln, Neb., ex-President OF the Irish
National League, who was in the city,
was asked by a reporter what he thought
of the inquiry being made by the Par
nell commission. Mr.. Egan is one of the
Irish-Americans arraigned by the Lon
don Times with Mr.. Parnell and his COM
patriots. He said: "Nothing new has
developed yet to talk about. What has
been said SO far is simply a rehash OF
charges, without proof, that have been
made for the last five years. But wait
until the evidence for Parncll is pro-
duced. The whole Times case will be
exploded. You may expect some SEN
sational testimony"
"You have private information con-
cerning Parnell's defense?"
Eyes, know something of it. I shall
myself, be able to tell some things which
have not been printed, in the event OF
sub.commission being sent here to take
the deposition OF those of US in the
United States. l have no doubt OF the
complete vindiCation OF Parnell and all
his associates, and this will greatly in
lure the government.
