HEALY AND BIGGAR.
Two Irish Members on the
Witness Stand.
CONNECTED WITH FENIANISM
The Mysterious Disappearance of the
Land Leagues Records and
Accounts.
Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.

Associated Press DISPATCHES to the HERALD
LONDON, May 29.-Maurice Healy,
member of Parliament, was before the
Parnell Commission to-day. He admitted
that the Cork branch of the League had
received applications from other branches
for a list of the merchants who were
members of the League in order that
other merchants might be boycotted.
Healy held it was legitimate to place
such pressure upon the shopkeepers.
Joseph Biggar, member of Parliament,
testified that he had been member of
the Supreme Council of the Fenian
Brotherhood, but had been expelled in
1877 for advocating constitutional action.
He joined the Land League in 1879. He
declared that the meaning of the speech
he made at Cork in 1880, in which ne re.
ferred to Anarchist Hartman having i'm
itators in Ireland, had been misunder-
stood. As fact, he had only warned the
supporters of Whiggish candidates
that the disgust of the people was
likely to result in the use Of dynamite.
In subsequent speech at Castletown he
advised the people to take care that the
land they occupied should be of no value
to the land grabbers. He further said it
was no part of the Leagues duty to re-
commend the shooting of landlords, but
that it was its duty to defend any ybody
charged with shooting landlords or their
agents. He said that because no conf
dence was placed in the administration
of law, the League ought to defend pris-
oners whose crimes were the outcome of
bad laws. He and Patrick Egan were
trustees of the funds of the League.
He could not associate either Egan or
Sheridan with the outrages.
Continuing his testimony, Biggar said
he had contributed nothing to the Fe-
nian funds. His object in joining the
Brotherhood was to obtain its assistance
in Parliamentary elections.
examined Biggar. Witness said he
never took part in the work of the
Leagues treasurer. He never drew a
check or saw handbook. He was nat
urally indolent, and left the work to
others. He did not know where the
record of the money dealings of the
League was kept, nor did he even know
why he had been associated with Egan
as treasurer. Just before the suppress
sion of the Land League, most Of the
books were moved. Thirty-two books
had been handed to Soames, solicitor for
the Times.
Presiding Judge Hannen remarkei 4
that this was the first time he had heard
about these books.
Sir Henry James said it was mistake.
There were no such books in Soames'
possession. Biggar said all the import.
ant books of the League had been re.
moved to England, and were very bulky.
He did not know chat any of the books
had been destroyed. He had not the
slightest notion of what became of the
missing documents,

THE RECEIVING HOSPITAL.
New Rooms Fitted Up I'm the Califor.
MIA Bank Building.


The rooms for the new receiving hos.
pital are being fitted up in the California
Bank building, on the corner of Second
and Fort streets. They are on the third
floor, and in that part of the building
which fronts on Fort street. This will
entail the disadvantage of carrying all
patients up two flights of stairs, but, as
it is intended to use the rooms only as a
temporary makeshift until the new City
Hall is ready for occupancy, this incon-
venience can be endured.
There are two rooms, light and airy,
and we'll suited to the purpose for which
they are designed. The floor is covered
with oil cloth. Four iron beds, with soft
springs and hair mattresses, stand in the
front room. The furniture which has
been purchased for the use of patients is
plain, but substantial.
For the purpose of heating the room
when the weather happens to be little
too cold, there is fire place furnished
with gas. There are ample water con-
nections. A large rubber cloth is pro.
vided, on which patient, who is
wounded and bleeding, can be placed,
before his injuries are attended to. A
large operating table stands in the middle
of the room. Everything has been pre-
pared which can be needed in cases of
accident, and the old scandal of the
treatment of the unfortunate people who
meet with accidents on the streets, in a
room fit only fer the occupancy OF vags,
will come to an immediate end.

Important Information ws


EDITORS HERALD-I have been re-
quested by the authorities in Washing
ton to send an account of the opportuni-
ties for, and the value of, irrigation
upon the desert lands of this section, for
the use of the Senate Committee having
this matter in charge. There can be
no doubt that if the committee had some
definite information as to sites for the
storage of water or the diversion oi
streams such as the Colorado for the ir-
rigation of the desert, the chances for
the nse of some of the Federal appropri-
alton made for these developments would
be increased in our section.
shonld be glad to have anyone who
has such information to send it to me.
Senator Stewards Committee should
visit Los Angeles. Doubtless it will do
so if some definite object Of investigation
is given. The Chamber of Commerce ia
the body to take this up, and should
make some efforts to get the committee
here, not only for the purpose of attract
ing the attention of the Government to
the irrigation of our desert lands, but
also to impress its members with the
necessity of proper government build
ings at Los Angeles, Pasadena, etc., and
Of a harbor of commerce.
