THE PARNELL INQUISITION.
Davitt Continues His Testimony
Before the Co m mi ssiOn.

LONDON, July 3.-Davitt continued his
testimony before the Parnell inquisition
today. He stated that he would not
object to joining any movement to gain
the independence of Ireland, if such
movement was backed by a force stropg
enough to justify the hope of success.
He did not approve of the Clerkenwell
explosion, and regretted the attack upon
the prison van, in which brave police
man WAS killed, but applauded the men
vino made the attack, for trying to save
their friends. While in prison he con-
cluded that movements by secret socie.
ties would do no good, and when released
he held conference with the leaders of
the Irish Republican Brotherhood in
Paris regarding the advisability Of an
open movement.
Matt Harris, one of those with whom
he conferred, had given permission for
his name to be divulged. But at present
witness could not diVulge the names of
the other Irish Republican Brotherhood
leaders without their permission.
Chief Justice Hannen said Attorney
General Webster was entitled to press the
question as to what others were present,
but could wait until the end of the exam
ination to do 30.
Witness further said he failed to win
the Irish Republican Brotherhood leaders
to approve of the adoption OF an open
movement, with the exception of Harris.
He intended to make the land question
the stepping stone to the independence
of Ireland, treating the landlords as an
English garrison. The Leagues land
programme, witness said, had now be-
come the programme of the Tory govern
ment. Laughter
Davitt refused to say whether or not
James O'Kelly, member Of the House,
had been engaged to distribute frearme,
and declared that he did not know
whether the trustees of the ekirmishing
fund, or Carroll and Breslin, Luby De-
voy, Burke and Rosa belong to the Clan
na-Gael. There is cry against the
Clan.na- Gael in America for political
purposes Witness declared he must be
careful of what he said, but he would say
they were all extreme Nationalists.
Davitt said "Parnell and l differ,
because Parnell is opposed to complete
separation, bat if he should get his
measure through 1 would Loyalty sup
port it. If he is successful the demand
for separation will eventually de-"
The League was founded as the Peo-
ple's League. 1t then got into the hands
of politicians. Witness disapproved of
the appeal to Americans to support the
Nationalist fund, which Attorney. Gen
eral Webster had read. Witness never
approved OF the skirmishing fund.
Davitt said while he was correspond
ent of the Irish World he used the ex-
preston "Spread the light" meaning
simply to circulate the paper. Witness
disapproved of much that man signing
transatlantic" wrote.
Parnell entered the courtroom while
Davitt was testifying and remained until
the session closed.

Many heartrending scenes were wit
