 Resses.
 LONDON, Nov. 13.-At the meeting of the
 Parnen commission to-day Presiding Justice Hamilton intimated that the courts decision
 in the matter of the disclosure of documents was that all the documents, which the Times possessed, including even those which the Times solicitor thought spurious, should be disclosed in order to assist in the search for the truth. Sir Charles Russell, counsel for the Parnellites, stated that he had receiva ed several threatening letters. Justice Han nen remarked that he also, and probably oth- CTS engaged in the case, had received similar letters. The intimidation of witnesses, he said, was 60 certain that precautions must be taken not to allow the premature disclosure of their names. The taking of evidence in relation to out rages was then proceeded with. James Mannion, one of the witnesses, declared him. self Fenian and member of the league. He said he had taken part in several out rages and had gone on moonlight expedi- tions. He knew no moonlighter who was Flaherty, 6 farmer, of Galway, testified that he was not ashamed to acknowledge it. He was perfectly ready to act with the moon lighters again.

Chief Warren,s Resignation Under
 DiacuRsiOn.

D1scussi0n.
 LONDON, Nov. 13.-In the House of Com mons this afternoon Mr. Matthews, the home secretary, stated that the resignation of Gen. Sir Charles Warren, as chief of the Metro politan police, was solely due for his refusa to submit to the rule which forbids officials to publicly criticise government services. General Warren, in announcing his resigna- tion, said Mir. Matthews, wrote that had he known that such a rule existed he would never have accepted the post.
 @In the debate on the estimates in connection with the Supreme court of judicature Mir. Louis J. Jennings (conservative) moved to re- duce the appropriation by considerable sum. Lord Randolph Churchill approved tho proposition. He said that the money squandered on court officials was @ public scandal and national disgrace, amounting to malversion of public money on large scale. MT. Jennings' motion to reduce the estimates was rejected by vote of 14S to 129.
