HEALY AND BIGGAR TESTIFY.
They Tell the ParnelI Commission of
Their Connection With the League.

LONDON, May 29.-Mr. Maurice Healy, NJ
p, for Cork, was placed in the witness box at
to-day sitting of the Parnell commission. He
admitted that the National league of Cork had
received applications from various branches of
the league for lists of the names of merchants
and members of the league in order that all
Others might be boycotted In answer to an
interrogation, Mr.. Healy held that this practice
was legitimate.
deposed that he was expelled from the
supreme council of Fenians because he advo-
Gated constitutional methods. He afterwards
joined the league. His speech i'll 1880. in
which he referred to Hartman having imita-
tors III Ireland. had been misread He really
only intended to warn the wings that the dis
gust of the people might result in the use of
dynamite. He subsequently advised the peo-
pie to see to it that the land was of no value to
land grabbers. He also admitted saving that
while it was part of the league to recon-
mend the shooting of landlords it would de-
fend persons charged with shooting them or
their agents. Mr.. Biggar said that he spoke
thus because he had no confidence in the ad-
ministration of the law in Ireland. Moreover
he believed that the league should defend pris-
oners when the crimes with which they were
charged arose from bad laws He said that
Mr.. Egan and he were trustees of the leagues
funds. He was unable to associate Egan with
the Sheridan outrage.
NEVER CONTRIBUTED TO FENIAN FUNDS
Mr.. Biggar said he had contributed nothing
to the Fenian funds. His object in joining the
brotherhood was to obtain its assistance in
parliamentary elections.
Sir Henry Jonnes, for the Times, cross
examined Mr.. Biggar.
Witness said he never took part in the work
of the leagues treasurer. He never drew
check or saw a bank book. He was naturally
indolent and left the work to Others He did
not know where the record Of the money deal
ings of the league was kept nor did he even
know why he had been associated with Eagan
as treasurer. Just before the suppression OF
the land league most OF the books were re-
moved. Thirty-two books had been handed to
Mr.. Soames, the solicitor for the Times.
Presiding Judge Mannen remarked that this
was the first time he had heard about these
books.
Sir Henry Jonnes said that it was a mistake
There were no such books i'll Mr.. Soames' pos
session.
Mr.. Biggar said that all the important books
Of the league had been removed to England
They were very bulky. He did not know that
any of the books had been destroyed. He had
not the slightest idea of what had became of
the missing documenta

In the matter of the star-route contracts,
suspended by second assistant postmaster-gen-
eral Whitfield, because of apparent illegal, if
not fraudulent execution, the assistant attor-
ney-ge2eral for the Post Office department has
just rendered a decision. He holds the entire
series of contracts, amounting to some S147 ,OOO

which the contracts were based, and which
were filed in the Office of the second assistant
postmaster general in January last, while held
to be irregular in many respects. are not
deemed absolutely void. The assistant attor-
ney-general holds that, based upon these pro-
posals, new contracts properly and legally exc
cuted, with good and sufficient bonds, may be

Oklahoma Town Sites.

Thirteen applications for town sites in the
King Fisher district in Oklahoma territory and
twelve in the Guthrie district have been re-
ceived at the general land Office. Land Com
missioner Stockslager said to-day that no action
would be taken in these land-site cases except
to refer them to the registers and receivers of
the land office, for the purpose of ascertaining
whether the land is used for business purposes.
If such is the case the land cannot be subject
to homestead entry. Mr.. Stockslager stated
that no title could be given in such cases until
some action was taken by Congress authorizing
it. He added. however, that persons who in
good faith settle upon and occupy lots in such
sites will without doubt ultimately receive title

IHE PLANS FOR THE PURITAN.-The board of
naval bureau chiefs which has been consider
ing the feasibility of changing the plans for
the completion OF the monitor Puritan have
decided to recommend the adoption of the
plans proposed by the bureau of construction,
which look to substitution of heavier guns in
barbettes for the turret guns and general ad-
dition to the powers of offense and defense of
the vessel. 1t is estimated that the changes in
the plans will not cost more to carry out than
the original plans
