Mr.. Davisrs TestImony-How the
Government Has Adopted Land
League Proposals.
LONDON, Oct. 30.-Nichael Davitt contin-
ued his speech before the Parnell commits
sion to- day. He argued that the government
is now adopting some of the leading propos-
ais originally made by the Land league. For
instance, the league proposed to buy out the
landlords in Ireland on twenty years. valu-
alton of their property. The Conservatives
denounced the idea when 1t was first moot
cd, but the government is now preparing a
similar scheme.
Mr.. Davitt denounced the charge that Mr..
Patrick Eagan, treasurer of the Land league,
paid money to assist In the Phoenix Park
murders, or that Mr.. Davitt advanced money
belonging to the league for the committal Of
outrages. The Times, Mr.. Davitt declared,
had not produced anything to support the
charges, except the evidence of the convict
Delaney, who swore that the forged letters
of Carey to Egan were genuine, and the test
imony of the self-confessed perjurer, Pig
gott, as to his interview with Eugene Davis.
Boycotting, Mr.. Davitt declared, was not adj
vocated as means of personal injury or in

The committee on squares had long ex-

to whether to recommed to remove the
