THE PARNELL COMMISSION, Cross s-Examination of Le Caron the Informer. LITERALLY TORN IN PIECES. Probable Effect of the
 Tariff Bill.
ROME IS TERRORIzED BY A MOB.

THE PARNELL COMMISSION.

Le Caron Makes Some Further State- ments-Many Documents Collected. LONDON Feb. S.-The cross examination of the informer, Le Caron, was continued by Sir Charles Russell before the Parnell con- mission today. The court room was over- crowded. MT. Parnell was not present. Le Caron said that during the last fort night he had got documents relating to the case from MT. Anderson, an official of the home office, who at his private residence al- lowed the witness to see the whole of the latter's past correspondence with the home office authorities. The witness then went to Cork street with an unsigned letter of intrs- duction which MT. Anderson had given him to MT. Houston, the secretary of the Loyal Patriotic union. In November, 1888, the witness read the reports of the proceeding be- fore the commission, and they give him the impression that the British prosecution was lamely presented.
 ''That's very hard upon the attorney gene ral," said Sir Charles Russell, the remark causing much laughter.
 Le Caron said that during the first three years of his service as spy he received no payment from the government and at present he was receiving only part of his pay. "Mr. Anderson" i" witness said, Opposed my testi- flying. He said that if testified it would be on my own responsibility. The letter that Anderson wrote to introduce me to Houston was signed with initials R. A"
 'sWhy did you not make that statement before?' asked Sir Charles Russell.
 s'I just remembered the fact" replied the witness.
 Anderson" continued Le Caron, ,tselected the documents he thought would be useful, and I selected those that I thought would be useful to Houston, who in turn selected those to be read to the courts. The work of se- lecting the papers occupied ten days. An derson introduced me to Houston as a man who had been mutually selected to represent the prosecution, and one whom the Times and I can trust.' I made the first proposal to come here."
 Le Caron said he had practiced medicine and kept drug store, and had become. rich. He had held high military office in the Brotherhood, but never an exective office. Bradley. of Philadelphia was now at the head of the executive. The Brotherhood in 1882 numbered 22,000. The membership IS now higher than ever and is increasing.

spaRrING MATTERS.

l A Fast Game in Which Hartford and New Haven Do Their Best to Win New Haven Wins to 2-Fine Play Ing by Both Teams-HilI's Splendid Blocking of Cotter-Connors Pre- sensed With 8 Geld Medal-Hartford 10 Join the Atlantic League.
 The game at the rink last night was fast and furious from the beginning to the end. The Hartfords put up an unusually strong
 game. The playing of Hnl, Phelan and Reed
 was the best ever seen here by any New Ha-
 ven defense. It is 8 wonder that the home
 team had not learned before the fact that to
 block Cotter was half the game won. Hill
 waited for him every time and blocked him,
 letting the ball go where 1t would, Phelan
 completing the play by blocking Sealy. The
 playing of the whole home team was simply grand, and the spectators went almost wild over their fine work. Newcomb was back in his old position, and when he came on the floor he received an ovation. He and Con- nors did yeoman service. Reeds goal tending was phenomenal. At one time Sealy and Cotter had an almost sure goal, but he guaged the ball rightly and with both of them di- rectly in front of him saved a goal. Nearly every stop he made was difficult one. Cot- ter and Sealy hustled for all they were worth and many times Cotter was thrown off his feet by running against Hill, but in such way that 8 foul could not be called. Smith played strong center and Sullivan and Nc Carthy also did splendid work. During the game Connors was struck by hockey on the head, hurting him rather severely.
 One of the features of the game was the presentation to Johnny Connors of gold badge, voted to him at the Light Guards fair as the most popular polo player. Referee O'Maley gracefully made the presentation speech, and as Connors skated down the rink to receive the medal one could not hear him self speak, SO great was the applause.
 The game started with great vim. Con- nors did brilliant word behind the cage, ,com- pletely outwitting Sealy. The first half ended without 3 goal to the credit of either team. Reed had had six stops and Mccarthy seven. Just twenty-five seconds after the half Newcomb got the ball from squsbble at the side and caged it. New Ravens made the second by Connors touching the ball and changing the course of Newcomb's drive. Cotter tried to cage the ball on the start in the third, but Phelan made a great stop. Cotter finally caged after Reed had made stop, catching it on the rebound.
 The fourth goal was made by Hill on back handed shot from the side center. The people burst forth with tremendous applause at this play. Sealy made the fifth on nice drive from the center. The score:

THE HOUSE,

A Senate amendment in the nature of 8 substitute was concurred in to the House bill relative to the judicial districts of Georgia. The House then went into committee of the whole on the army appropriation bill.
 The pending question was on the point of order raised by MT. Randall against the clause appropriating $500, ,000 for the pur- chase of moveable submarine torpedoes. After debate the chair sustained the point of order on the ground that the item for tor- pedoes belonged to the fortifcation bill. The clause was, therefore, stricken out. On motion of Mir. Townshend an amendment was adopt ed appropriating 800 for the pur- chase of guns of musketry calibre. On mo tion of Mir. Maish of Pennsylvania, an amendment was adopted appropriating $15, 900 to enable the secretary of war to cause examinations and tests to be made in converting existing ordnance of the war de- pertinent into steel line breech loading, tor- pedo howitzers, according to the plans of s, H. Eulmons. On motion of MT. Tracey of New York an amendment was adopted appropriating $15, 1000 for the purchase of land convenient to the Watervlict arsenal suitable for proof firing. The committee then rose and the bill was passed.
 The agricultural appropriation bill was taken up, discussed and passed.
 The Speaker laid before the House mes- sage from the President trensmitting further correspondence in regard to Samoa. Or dered printed in the Record and referred to the committee on foreign affairs.
 The House then (st o'clock) took a recess until 7:3G o'clock.

 Company Meet To-NIght-No Grounds
 Selected Net.
 The stockholders of the New Haven Amusement company will meet tonight. Officers will be elected and work for the placing of first-class team in this city com menced at once. The capital stock has all been taken, and those interested feel sure that the new move undertaken by them will be successful. The basis on which the cons pany will conduct affairs will be entirely dif- ferent than ever before. Grounds will be secured at once, a manager engaged, and players engaged.
 It has not yet been decided where to have the ground. The Fair Haven and Westville horse car company say they will do the prop CT thing if the James street grounds are se- cured. The public will know very soon where the grounds will be. Work has been commenced in time, and there will be no difficulty in getting good team. In all probability Hunt, who played center field for the Yale team last year, will be engaged. To show the extravagance two years ago it is only necessary to say that the salary list at one time was over s. 900 for the broken down players that were here, and only $1, 200 was raised and this company has $3, 000.

Feb. S.-When the Wakely Hardware Co.,, manufacturers of Jacks, proved failure the machinery was bought by parties in Auburn, New York, who formed the concern to carry on the business there with capital of some $20, 000 The venture has resulted as unsatisfactorily as that here, and the corpo- ration will go out of business. It is claimed that there are tack machines in the country to produce in six months as many goods as can be consumed in year, hence the failure of these new enterprises.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-The computations made by the treasury experts upon the prob
 able effect of the Senate amendments to the tariff reached the committee on ways and means to-day and were immediately sent to the printer. A Democratic member of the com- nittee says the tables show that one-half of the reduction of S25, ,00o, ,000 effected by the changes in the sugar schedules is wiped out by changes in the other tariff schedules, which in themselves would result in con- siderable increase in the revenue. This would leave the net reduction of revenue about $12, ,O0O, ,O0O or $13,000, ,000, leaving the internal sections out of the calculation.

 A thousand tickets have been issusd for the charity ball, and already Treasurer B. B. English has received large number of fa- vorable responses. Those who have not se- cured tickets can do so by addressing the treasurer or any member of the committee. It is expected that an equal and probably a much greater number will be sold than last year, and the receipts thus far have been in every measure gratifying.
 The object for which the ball is organized cannot but appeal to the charity of everyone who is interested in city and State welfare No more worthy object for contributions can be desired than the hospital, and the great good done by the amount realized from the ball in former years is surely an incentive to earnest labor on the part of the committee in charge of the event, as well as strong for every one to subscribe for the ball who can well afford to do so.
 The dancing committee of twenty appoint ed by Dr. Daggett met last night in George D. Watrous' office and were divided into re- liefs of ten each for their work at the ball. Other details of their work were arranged.

The Directory f0r Nurses,

Now well advanced in the third year of it's existence, has received the confidence and patronage of the public far beyond we had any reason to expect for new enterprise.
 Hundreds of Nurses have been sent to as many sick rooms, and the fact that, with rare exceptions, entire satisfaction has been given all parties, is sufficient proof that the selections have been judicious. Generally the calls for Nurses have been answered promptly, but in sickly seasons the demand has been greater than the Directory could supply. Upwards of @ hundred names are on our register, representing the majority of the best nurses in this city and vicinity, both graduates of the Training School and others.
 When the calls are for Trained Nurses, only those are sent who are graduates or recognized schools and have had experience in the private sick room since leaving the Hospital.
 But, bearing in mind the fact that many cannot afford the expense and not every in- valid requires the special skill of the Trained Nurse, we have on our books the names of many desirable nurses who have devoted their lives to the care of the sick, and who are in every respect competent to perform the duties they undertake and for a compen- sation below what the services of the Grad- mated Nurses will generally command. It is the object of the Directory to supply promptly competent nurses, both male and female, for any case which may present, and one within the means of the applicant. The fee for furnishing Nurse is small and much valuable time and expense will be saved by consulting the Directory when a nurse is needed, either in emergency or for future service.
 Any information in regard to nurses will be furnished and all calls by telegraph, mail or telephone will receive prompt attention by E. |. Washburn, N. D., Registrar,
