and its founders and leaders. In
the judgment Of the court the de-
nunciations of crime quoted for the
defense Were of little avail. because
contemporaneously with them the
leaders and organizers were carrying
on the agitation by means Of
speeches and conduct tending to ell.
courage crime. The sentiment in
Ireland against aiding the police in
the discovery Of criminals was not
confined to the ignorant, but was
shared by those from whose educa.
ton juster views Of duty should pre-.
vail.
"Proof has been given that the
league systematically and indis-
criminately betrayed the expenses OF
the defense Of persons charged with
agrarian crime. Theknowledge tina.
such assistance will in all cases be
afforded must have the effect TO en-
courage persons so disposed to COM
NIT outrage. The same observation
applied to the support of their fam
lies. Numerous books and docu-
ments which, II produced, might
have thrown light upon the leagues
proceedings, were not produced.
Generally, We have not received
from Parnell and the officers of the
Land League the assistance that we
were entitled to expect in our in
vestigation Of the league accounts"
The report proceeds to trace the
course Of the Leagues movements
in America and their connection
with the Clan-na-Gael. Touching
the contradictory evidence Of O'Con-
nor and Parnell over the Interview
in the corridor Of the Commons in
1881, the balance of the probabilities
was in favor of the accuracy Of lie
Caron. 1t was highly probable that
Parnell would say TO anyone whom
he regarded as q member Of the ply
steal force party in America that an
understanding ought to be brought
about between
THAT PARTY AND FARSELL
and his supporters in the League. 1t
was also probable that Parnell would
mention Dewey as the person best
able to arranage such an undertake

principal agents through whom the

and dynamite; but it has not been
proved that respondents knew that
the Clan-na-gael controlled the land
league or was collecting money for
a parliamentary fund; but Il has
been proved that respondents invit-
ed and obtained the assistance and
cooperation of the physical force
party in America, including the
Clan-na-gael, and in order to obtain
that assistance ahstainei from re-
pudiating or condemniug the action
Of that party.
besides these there remains three
specific charges against Parnel per
sonally, namely:
e.rhat at the time Of the Kilmain-
ham negotiations Parnell knew that
Sheridan and BoyntOu had been
organizing the outrages and there
fore wished to use them 10 put down
the outrages not proved.
"sThat Parnell was intimate with
the leading invincibles and that he
probably learned from them what
they were about when he was re-
leased on parade in April, 1852, and
that he recognized the Phoenix Park
murder as their handiwork. We
find that there is no foundation for
this charge and that the invincibles
were not a branch of the land league.
THAT Parnell, by an opportune
remittance enabled F. Byrne TO
escape from justice to France. We
find that Parnell did not make any
remittance to enable Byrne
TO ESCAPE FROM JUSTICE.
"Regarding the two special
charges against Davitt, that he was
a Fenian and assisted in the forma-
ton Of the Land League with money
contributed for the purpose Of out
rage and crime, and that be was in
intimate association with the party
of violence in America, and was
mainly instrumental in bringing
about the alliance OF that party and
the Parnellite and Home Rule party
in America. We find il proved that
Davitt was n Fenian and received
money from the 'ssirnishing fund. ,
contributed for the purpose of out
rage. This was not, however, for
the formation Of the Land League
itself, but for the promotion Of sgita-
ton leading up to IT, We find also
that he was in such close and init
mate association with the party Of
violence In America and was the
man mainly instrumental In bring
ing about the alliance referred to-"

LOWE TO BE TAKEN HOME.
Durham Ofnccr Expected Here for Him
This Morning.


This Morning.
James F. Lowe, whose arrest was re-
ported in the Dispatch of Tuesday, was
before the Police Court yesterday
charged with being fugitive from justice
from Durham, n. G..
Policeman Hall testified that Lowe
was arrested on a telegram from Dur
ham, where he was wanted for blgamy,
and that an officer was on his way to
Richmond with the necessary papers foI
the accused.
Justice Crutchfeld accordingly con.
tinued the case until December 9Th tc

the requisition papers.
Grace Campbell, the girl with whom
Lowe left Durham and came to Rich

ham regarding the prisoner, and the
second of these stated that an officer wa!
on his way to the city with the neces

be taken back to Durham to-day. The
officer will arrive here this morning.

SHENANDOAH AT THE ACADEMY.
A Strong War Play Presented By q Good
Company.

The presentation at the Academy last
night of Shenandoah" most excel
lent military drama from the mastery
pen OF Bronson Howard, proved to be
ell that has been claimed for it. The
story is so skilfully drawn that the inter-
est is not allowed to flag, and one con-
tinually wonders whereit is to end. The
second and third acts are the principal
ones that deal with events OF the
war in the Shenandoah Valley. Deal
ing as the play does with one OF
the most exciting and decisive incl
dents OF the war the writer has care
fully avoided giving the noise and con
fusion 10 the action that might ordl-
narily be expected in play OF its charac-
ter. and has interwoven in the action q
love story, which if less ingeniously
handled would seem inconsistent and
unreal. 1t portrays the extremes OF
humor and pathos so closely connected
as TO move the audience alternately to
laughter and tears. The realis-
tic features, the signals from
the distant hills, the bugle calls,
the dust-smeared uniforms of the
soldiers, are all wildly and forcibly por-
trayed. In the third act a detachment
of Company E, First Virginia regiment,
under command OF Sergeant Gibson, ap-
peared and added much realism to the
innate of the act. The scenic investitures
we're particularly good, especially the
scenes depicting the Shenandoah Valley,
which are claimed to have been painted
from sketches taken in the Valley, where
the war action in Shenandoah oc-
Cured. There is nothing in the play to
cause offence Of any nature. The sec
tionsl differences between the North and
South are most wholesomely compro-
missed
The acting company is an excellent
one. The easy and graceful manner IN
which Frank Dayton assumed the diff
cult roLe of Colonel West stamps him as
one of the leading members in his pro-
fession on the English-speaking stage.
The General Haverill of Oscar Eagle
was infused with all the dignity this
well-known actor is recognized for. W.
l.. Gleason as the Sergeant was the
comedy-hit Of the evening. His every
appearance Was the signal for laughter
and applause. Helen Leslie as Ger
trude, the Southern Girl, sustained the
part well and was given recall after the
third act. All Of the others in the cast
played their parts admirably.
A special Thanksgiving-day matinee
of shenandoah " will be given this
afternoon. The engagement will con-
tinue through the remainder of the
week, including Saturday matinee.

the only member OF the Irish delegation
to-day in New York, was in telegraphic
communication with the other delegates.
who are in different parts OF the country
addressing meetings, and with his col
leagues in Parliament In reference to
Gladstone's letter.
Mr.. Gill states that the meeting of the
party to-day in London was postponed
for few days at the suggestion OF the
delegates here to afford them an oppor-
tunity of consulting together. They
will probably meet for this purpose FRI
day at Cincinnati, and by that time O
full interchange Of views will have taken
place.
WARNING TO sYMPATHIzERs.
Gill warns the friends of and sympa-
thizers with the Irish cause in this
country to beware of forming hasty con-
clusions on the information thus far re-
ceiyed. He declares his fiat disbelief in
the alleged anger of Irish members ut
Parnell's alleged refusal to summon a
second meeting. He is equally incrsdu.
lous as to the statement that an Irish
member said the Irish party would fol-
low Parnell even il home rule we're put
back fifteen years.
ABSURD STATEMENTS.
He says such statements are perfectly
absurd. A grave crisis has undoubtedly
been caused by the publication Of Mr..
Gladstone's letter, but the Irish members
may be relied upon to act with some ol
the patriotism and disregard Of sell
which has characterized their policy.
Pernell and the Irish parliamentary
party will decide the question presented
to them by Mr.. Gladstone's lettsr wholly
on considerations for the best interests
of the cause which he and they have
brought to the threshold Of victory.

"that the next few days will allow oil

What the Papers Say Pro and Con Par
neII-"GIadstone'sN Noble Letter"
fBy Anslo-American cable to the Dispa.chl
LONDON, Eng, November 26.-The
Chronicle says "The country will to-
day realize the extent OF Psrnells das-
tardly presumption when it reads Mr..
Gladstones noble letter to Morley.
When we call to mind all that Mr.. Glad
stone has brayely borne for Parnell we
can find no parallel for the baseness OF
Parnelrs requital. Though it has been
our duty 10 criticise and oppose Glad
stones policy We feel certain that his
prompt resolution to throw oil the un-
clean alliance which Parnell would force
upon him will send thrill OF pride and
admiration through the heart of Eng
land"
AEULoGY OF DAvITT's.
The article concludes with eulogy
OF Dayitt's independence in these words {:
ave shall bo surprised if the best men
OF the Irish race at home and abroad do
not cooperate with Dayitt in his noble
efforts to redeem his country from dis
| grace and the cause for which he suffer-
!
ed from ignominious destruction"
The Dduy 7eLegraph praises Glad
stones honorable straightforwardness.
"sAR-cHAsM FOR PARSELL.
Regarding Parnell it says "1f it be
generalship 10 have not only brought
disaster on his own party, but 10 have
temporarily wrecked the whole Home
Rule cause. Parnell may claim to be
one of the finest generals of the age"
now THE LETTER snsCARRIED.
The star (Home Rule) says Glad
stones letter was designed TO be read at
the Parnellite meeting held yesterday,
at which it was voted to retain Parnell
in the leadership of the party. Some
| how the letter WAS not read.
Justin Mccarthy had been instructed
to inform Parnell OF Gladstone's opinion
that change in the leadership Of the
Irish party was essential, but in the
haste OF Parnell's arrival Mr.. Glad
stones opinion was not fully impressed
on him. Parnells sudden presence (;
his past services the outside cruel
talk against him, and the instructive
Irish loyalty prevailed over the duties
Of the Parnelites as to the necessity Of
the situation.
| PARNELLITE EYES NOW OPEN.
The eyes of the party are now opened
to the significance of affairs in England,
which is nothing less than whether
home rule will be passed on at the next
general election or be indefinitely
shelved. Had the Parnellites known
that they could have come to but one
conclusion we believe they will come to
it to-day.
In conclusion the star says it is con-
fident that patriotic Home-Rulers have
no alternative but to pass resolution
which will enable Mr.. Gladstone to give
the remainder of his life to their cause.
COMMENTS OF THE PARIS PRESS.
PARIS, FRANCE, November 26.-The
Temps says Parnell is bitterly eXpiating
his offence, but that he will doubtless
prefer to suffer purely personal expia-
ton rather than condemn Ireland 10 an
unhappy defeat. La France considers
Gladstone's letter to Morley equivalent
to treaty of peace between the ex-
Premier and Lord Salisbury.
