The names of the three com missfoners are Michael Finucane, sec retary to the government of Bengal revenue. general and statistical depart ment: Frederick s. French, now one of the Irish land commissioners, and Will liam F. Bailey, one of the assistant commissioners on the Irish land com mission. They will be under the gem eral control of the lord lieutenant of Ireland. The bill will become effective Nov. 1.
 The keen interest felt in this new legislation, which, it is hoped, will pro- mote peace and contentment in Ire land, was shown by the crowded house. The peers gallery and the distinguished strangers gallery were filled, and there has been no such gathering of mem bers of parliament since the opening of the session. Tn the diplomatic gallery sat United States Secretary Henry White, an interested spectator, while almost every Irish peer listened to MT. Wyndham's exposition of the bill. From an early hour the stone benches from the house of commons entrance to the doors of the lobby were packed with impatient Irishmen, among whom were many priests. Most of these went away without seeing even the inside of the legislative chamber, the galleries of which were crowded as has not been the case for many a day. Michael Da- witt, the "father" of the Land League, celebrated his fifty-seventh birthday by re-sntering the house for the first time since he ceased to be member in order to hear the chief secretary for Ireland unfold his plans.
 The passing of the first reading of the bill was followed by a rush to the Hobby, where ensued scenes that might well make the ghost of Parnell turn in his grave. The tall form of Lord Dud- ley, the lord lieutenant of Ireland could be seen amid a crowd of Ma tionaIists who scarcely a year ago would rather have suffered every pen alty than associate with the official head of the Irish government. Beside Lord Dudley stood the gdzzled little Sir Anthony Mcdonnell, the first na. fional assistant Irish secretary. He il was who drafted the bill. Horace Plunkett, Lord Iveagh, Lord Ash bourne and many Unionist members joined the group. The Duke of Aber corn, the most powerful landlord in Ireland, asked to be introduced to Johr Redmond, and mutual friend brought the duke to the leader of the National ist party, with whom the leader of the Irish landlords heartily shook hands and they patched up the peace of Ire land over the house of commons re < freahment bar.

Describes the Blow That Won
for Jeffries.
He USED OLD PUNCHES
Ryan Says It's Hard to Change
Early Habits.
At End of 2nd Round COrbett
Said Sc I'm All In.''

Chicago. Sept. 2-"There were no new
punches shown in the Corbett-Jeffries
fight said Tommy Ryan today.
Ryan got in from the far west this
morning and promptly nailed the can
afloat about him.
'Jeffries used two old punches on Cor
bett. In the first round 1 saw Jeffries
going for the head with those hooks of
his and L told Corbett to watch out, that
he was likely to come below with one OF
those. Sure enough, in the second round
Corbett had his elbows up little
guarding his head. you know, when JEFF
fries stepped in and ripped one up from
the hip with his left hand. 1t landed
square in abe pit of the stomach. When
Corbett came back he said:
" Tom, Pm all in. That punch
Don't get discoura ged,' I said to
him.
81 amt discouraged, but I know
when I'm all in. That took the fight al!
out of me-.
Il knew that Jeffries would kill him
if he tried to go away and told him
to stay in close and get inside every
chance he could.
He did that, but even then he would
break out into those old wide feints of
his. You can't change an old fellow.
IF it hadn't been for that second
round punch think Corbett would have
gone along for Is rounds, maybe the
limit. After that Corbett was so slowed
UP that Jeffries looked faster than he
really was. At that, Jeff is fast.
The punch that licked Corbett and
the punch that finally put him out were
sent for the same place. The first was
a left-hander and the second a right
handler and the last was right on the
beta good square punch.
After the fight was over Jeffries
came over before them all and said to
me:
I guess we can shake hands now
Il said All right and we shook.
I'm going to ask my st. Louis club
for permission to fight one more fight
anyway. I want to meet Philadelphia
Jack O'Brien and I think Frisco club
will give US a purse all right and
think we will draw big.

good form and l believe he can beat

for him to get to the top. l will be
