 Sir Henry James Finally Concludes
 His Speech For the Times Before
 the Parnell ComEaissiOn.
 LONDON, Nov. 2.-All the counsel for the London Times were present at the Parnell commission to day. Sir Henry James cons tinued his speech for the Times. He said that MT. Parnell had paid MT. William Red- mond e17O, and had promised that MT. Redmond would be called to explain when the payment was made; but, he said, MT. Redmond had never been called. Sir Henry attempted to show, step by step, how the Clan-na-Gael had become paramount in the body which represented the Irish-American movement and controlled and directed it's operations. Sir Henry contended that the Irishman was enabled to proclaim MT. Par nell's policy of the course which he was pur- suing. Sullivan and Ford, Sir Henry de- clared, had openly preached assassination in connection with the Clan-na-Gael. Sir Hen " finally concluded his speech at 3:30 o'clock.
 Presiding Justice Hannen said that the court would not call for any further evi- dence. Justice Hannen congratulated the counsel on the completion of their tasks. He added: "We must bear the burden little longer. One hope supports us, conscious that throughout this great inquest we have sought only the truth, we trust that we shall be guided to find and set it forth plainly in the sight of all men,"

Brick Dwelling Blown to Pieces
 Two Persons Fatally Burned.
 PrrrsBURa, Nov. 22.-A two-story brick dwelling on Robinson street, Braddock, was blown to pieces this morning by an explosion of natural gas. Two persons were fatally burned and six others seriously injured. The accident was caused by a leak in the main. The leakage was discovered last night, and this morning Charles Householder, an em- ploye of the gas company, was sent to repair she trouble. He descended into the base ment, and almost immediately there was a terrific explosion. At the time there were in the house Peter Kelsh, wife and six chill dren, besides Householder. The foundations upheaved and the sides and front of the building collapsed. Mrs. Kelsh, who was sick, was thrown into the street and fatally injured. Her three-days old babe was not hurt.

THE SQUADRON OF EVOLUTION. Tho Four Big War ships Arrive as BOston-The Chicago Admired by Crowds-An Exchange Of Civilities.

Tho Four Big War ships Arrive at
 BOston-The Chicago Admired by
 Crowds-An Exchange Of Civilities.
 BosToN, Nov. 22.-The United States squadron of evolution, the cruisers Chicago, Yorktown, Boston and Atlanta, whose visit to Boston in compliment to the maritime exhibition was secured by President John W. Ryckman and Press Manager Hugh Coyle of the exhibition association, cast anchor be. fore the city shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon. By half-past 12 the wharves were covered with crowds of men and boys await ing the arrival of the fleet. At 10 o'clock the fleet was plainly visible standing up the har- bor and advancing under steam, and the war vessels were soon at their anchorage. As they steamed in line up the harbor the Yorktown was considerably in the lead. She was followed by the Boston, then came the flagship, the Chicago, and the Atlanta brought up the rear. The Yorktown steamed directly to the navy yard, and after signal- ing her arrival lay-to there, pas sing the Cunard wharf at 1:20 o'clock. wharf at 1:2s. The Chicago laid direct ly of Long wharf, steaming backward while signaling. She was accompanied by the government tug. The Atlanta steamed directly up to Central Wharf. At 1:30 the commodore's salute, nine guns, was heard from the navy yard, and the auns of the Chicago were immediately discharged in rec sponse. By this time there was considera- ble number of small craft surrounding the Chicago, but aside from this the harbor wore no unwonted appearance. To . spectator on the wharf it was evident that the general outward appearance of all the cruisers except the Chicago was disappointment to nine out of ten people who witnessed their arrival, most people seeming to expect leviathans in size, brist- ling with armament after the pattern of the old fashioned frigate. The Chicago, on the other hand, met with universal admiration, her broad yards, armored lookouts, glittering rows of guns, and projecting stem giving her formidable and very imposing appearance. A steam launch from the navy yard, under Lieutenant Hume, carried to the Chicago the compliments of Commandant McOann to Admiral Walker, extending the usual cour- | tesies.
 | Collector Saltonstall, Surveyor Coveney and Naval Officer Kent went down the har' Dor on the revenue cutter Hamlin, met the cruisers and escorted them to their anchorage
 The custom house officials then went or
 board and were received by Captain Robesor and conducted below to Admiral Walkerl
 cabin. Here Collector Saltonstall welcomed
 the admiral. In reply Admiral Walker ex
 pressed his pleasure at being allowed t'
 bring his vessels to this city and then all tn
 members of the party were introduced ant
 conducted on @ tour of inspection over tn
 ship. The collector and his party returne'
 to the Hamlin and visited each of the cruiser
 in turn, like interchange of courtesies tek
 ing place upon each of them.

 Good Polo.
 The Bridgeports were never in the game last night. Pierce didn't do any work to speak of. He was repeatedly blocked. It was hustling game, aud if the home team keeps up the gait it struck last night New Haven will land dear the top. The surprise of the evening was the playing of Connors and Neweomb. The latter didn't seem to skate; he apparently had wings, and was ap- parently everywhere. Connors passed to Newcomb in fine style. The latter was re- peatedly applauded. Reed again played a brilliant goal, while Hill and Phelan were an impenetrable defence. Conway was fouled several times. In the latter part of the game the New Ravens toyed with the visi- tors. Captain Hill has his team in excellent condition, and they are playing polo second to no team in the league. The score:

THE NATIONAL GAME.


 What the League and Brotherhood
 Are Doing.
 Pfeffer of the Chicago Players club says that his team for the coming season will be as follows: Second base, Pfeffer; third base, Latham; shortstop, Williamson; felders, Duffy, Ryan, Dwyer and Bastian; pitchers, Baldwin, King and Tener; catchers, Farrell and Darling, with first baseman yet to be secured. This is about the only Brotherhood team that is practically complete.
 The Cleveland players have not joined forces with the Brotherhood, as was expect ed, and they are signing contracts with the League club instead. Last night McKean put his name to League contract, and Zim- mer and McAleer have agreed to do so to- day. The other members of the nine are wavering, and the president of the Cleveland club expects to have his men all under con- tract before Jan. 1.
 The total number of players whom the Brotherhood managers say they have con- tracted with to date is eighty.seven. A number of the men whose names are given have agreed to play with the League, and their contracts are in the possession of the clubs which they played with last season. The election of Syracuse to the America n association is by no means an assurance that the club will play in it. The International association is not yet broken up, and the | Syracuse club will await the outcome of the Brotherhood movement before resigDing from it. Although the Buffalo nine is owned by the Brotherhood delegate from Buffalo, it has not yet resigned from the International league. Rowe and White will not leave, unless Brotherhood club is placed in Buffa- To. They seem to be doubtful of such 8 move, in spite of plans of the Brotherhood.
 The management of the Athletic club are much disgusted with the Brotherhood for trying to get their players. They say that the Brotherhood announced in the beginning that the Association would not be interfered with. Now that so many of the League players are deserting them, the Brotherhood are hunting for Association players to 6l their places. Cross, Seward, Stovey and Bierbaur of the Atletics, Foreman and Kill roy of the Baltimores, and Hamilton of th' Kansas Citys, have been announced as mem bers of the Brotherhood clubs.
 The Indianapolis league nine is getting it old players rapidly, and its indeld will b. the-same as last year, with the possible ex , ception of first base. The pitchers who hay ; been secured are: Getzein, Boyle and Rusie , and Buckley has agreed to play next season , The leaders in the Brotherhood scheme ar still in Pittsburgh trying to get the Players league club of that city on it's feet and t overcome the effect of the publication of tn - form of contract, which has caused the dii 3 affection of many Brotherhood players.
