WILLIAM O'BRIEN TESTIFIES.
He Tells the Parnen Commission Of
the Agrarian Outrages in Ireland.

LONDON, May 2L-Mr. William O'Brien testi-
fed to-day before the Parnell commission.
The fact that his testimony was expected to-
day drew large crowds to the court room and
the witness was listened to with great atten-
ton. Owing to Mr.. O'Brien's weak condition,
the result of his long imprisonment, he was
allowed to remain seated: In a low, weak
voice, which it was difficult to hear beyond the
counsel table, the witness gave detailed ac-
count OF agrarlan outrages perpetrated In
County IIpperary prior to the formation of
said the witness, after it was established, pre-
vented a wholesale famine and fearful war
in the west of Ireland in 1870. The witness
declared that no murders had been committed
in Tipperary since the league had formed a
branch there.
MIR. O'Brien described the wretched condi-
tion OF the people in Tipperary and other coun-
ties prior to the formation Of the National
League. The poor tenants were in debt up to
their necks and had absolutely no redress
against oppressive and brutal landlords The
witness said the troubles that came on after
1870 arose from the universal movement made
by the landlords to take advantage Of the ''two
years. clause allowed by the act of 1870 to get
rid OF small tenants and thus save paying them
the compensation due them.
The witness described the condition of
County Mayo at the time that Michael Davitt
formed a branch of the league there as appall-
ing. Wholesale famine and bankruptcy
seemed inevitable" said he. Farmers sold
everything at a dead loss and landlords did not
lift hand to help them, but, on the contrary,
denied that any distress existed"

held for France.
1T is my good fortune" said Mr. Reid. to
represent America here when France is cele-
brating centenary as important as the centen-
airy lately celebrated in America. We do not
forget that you helped in the success Of our
revolution. This increases our interest in the
magnificent display Of the arts OF peace with
which you nobly crown your centenary. NV
instructions inform me that there does not
exist the shadow of difference between
France and the United States capable Of
obscuring the century-old friendship of the
two republics which, hope, will always
endure"

THE WIRES WERE NOT UP.
Arrest of an Electrician on Suspicion
that he would Violate the Law.

Mr.. Charles s. Pardoe. electrician for the
United States electric light company, was ar
rested this morning by Policeman Caverly on
suspicion that he was going to violate the act
of Congress with reference to the stringing of
overhead wires near 7th and H streets. The
workmen were about to make a connection
with the street wire and were going to run the
wires along the roofs of houses The officer
accompanied Mr.. Pardoe to the Office of At
torney Riddle, where the matter was investi-
gated, and Mr.. Riddle refused to file an in
formation in the case. Then they went to
police headquarters, where Capt Austin was
seen. The captain was of the opinion that as
it was not proposed to run the wires across the
street he thought that the Commissioners
would grant permit for the work.. Mr. Par
doe was not, therefore, required to give bonds.
MIR. Pardoe said to a STAR reporter that the
company did not propose to violate any law.
He said that he had not put up any wires when
the officer appeared, but was merely getting
ready to do the work.

AN EXTRA SESSION.
Congress will Probably be Called to As
semble In October

Speaking to STAR reporter to-day Senator
Cullom said there seemed to be no doubt that
Congress would be called together in October
instead Of waiting until December. This would
be necessary to prevent a long session during
next summer, as there was more work for the
first session of the Fifty-frst Congress than
could be disposed of in an ordinary session. He
said that he thought the republican party
would dispose of the tariff matter at this
first session. All the Congressman and the
President have an appreciation of the extent
and importance of the work before them

PROHIBITION IN IOWA.
More Liquor Sold and Of Poorer Quality.

CHICAGO, May 2l.-A special from Dubuque.
Iowa, says: In an interview yesterday. Internal
Revenue Collector Webster, of this district.
stated that the prohibitory law increased the
sale of liquor in Iowa. This year he has issued
232 more liquor licenses than last year. The
number of wholesale dealers is slightly less
than before the prohibi;ory law. but the sales
are larger and the quality of liquor sold is
poorer. Not only have the sales increased.
but since the decision of the United States
Supreme Court in the case of Bowman Bros.
the Marshaltown brewers. the importations by
express of original packages of liquor mas been
enormous. Wholesale liquor houses have
sprung up all along the borders of the state
and are supported mainly by Iowa trade.
