Judge Hannen said the circumstances under which the commission met were novel. He stated briefly the seope and nature of the principles on which the commission proposed to conduct the in- quiry. The commission, he sald, was directed to inquire into and report upon changes made against members of the house of commons and other per- sons in connection with the O’Donnell- Times ac- tion, The commission held that the inquiry Should be restricted to the charges that were Made the cause of that action. Parliament also them, in ‘addition to — their s powers, all the powers vested in Judges of, the high courts of justice. ‘hey propose, in the first instance, to make the ns as though it were an issue between Mr. O'Donnell and the Times, reserving to themselves the power to call anybody who night ‘be able to throw light on the issues there invol ‘The in- quiry would be carried on in accordance with the rules of the ordinary courts, Before i Judge Hannen asked Sir Charles Russel) for whom he appeared. ‘Sir Cuaries replied that he repre- sented eighty-four Irish members of — Mr. Graham said he was retained, with Attorney- General Webster, for the Times. Application was made for permission for the representation of Scotland Yard by counsel, Judge Hannen sald he ‘would decide upon the application if it were found. ‘that the inquiry involved the police, ‘SIR CHARLES RUSSELL DEMANDED that he be allowed to inspect the letters and pho- tographs bearing on the and that the com- mission issue an order for the discovery of the documents upon the authority of which some of ‘the Times’ charges were made. He asked that a commission be appointed to take evidence in the United States, and that an order be issued releas- ing Mr. Dilion from jail so that he may give testi- mony before the commission. He wanted es lally to see the Egan-Harris letver, which, be claimed, ‘was a forgery. Counsel for the Times to produce certain letters, vut objected to the commission, giving an order for the discovery of the documents. MR. PARNELL ENTERED THE COURT-ROOM while the discussion concerning the production of the letters was proceeding. Sir Charles Russell sald he did not confine his plication to two letters. He wanted to inspect all the letters and documents referred to in the articles on “Parnellism and Crime.” Judge Han- nen stated that he had not read them, and said that counsel must inform the court what were necessary $0 as to guide them. Sir Charles stated to the court that one of the many charges pub- lished inthe Zimes was that certain Parnellite members of the house of comiaons were connected ‘with an illegal association, and were sharers in the crime of murder. One proof of this charge was a letier in which Mr. Parnell approved of a fund—meaning an assassination fund. ‘THE PRODUCTION OF PAPERS, Judge Hannen said he understood that the 7¥mes Would produce ail the letters and documents af- fecting Mr. Parnell and the others against whom it brought charges. If the parties could not agree as co tile production of the papers, the comiits. sion fwould deal with the disputed points in chambers afterwards. Mr, Graham then opened the case for the Times. After a review of the history of the “Parnellism and Crime” articles, he said 1t Was now asked that the Times should state whence it had derived its information, but if 1t divulged its sources of in- formation the object of the commission might be defeated and Its inquisitorial character lost. Sir Charles Russell here insisted that the case should not proceed until the commission decided the question as to the production of ail the docu- ments in possession of the Times. ‘The judges adjourned to chambers to consider the question. Th a short time the commission re- turned to the court-room, and Judge Hannen asked, assuming the commission’ thought they had Jurisdiction to order the discovery of the ocuinents, What restrictions Sir Charies Russell would claim. ave Sir Charles stated that he wanted to know in plain language if the Times charged Mr. Parnell Or bis associates With complicity in the Phoenix Park murders. ‘Mr. Graham replied that the Times would pro- duce evidence to substantiate all the charges It had made in 1t8 articieson “Parneftism anu Crime.” AN IMPORTANT POINT DECIDED, ‘The commission again retired to deliberate, Upon resuming the sitting Judge Hannen said that the commission having considered the question as to whether it was empowered to order the discov. ery of the documents, it was of the opinion that It had the power vo direct such discovery. ‘The com- mission would take upon itseif the right tocon- ‘sider What documents it would be right. for Sir Charies Russell's clients to t. ‘The court thought that the details against the persons the ‘Times accused ought to be given. ‘The court had u determined to enter thoroughly “into the inquiry and follow it out to Sir Charles Russell made application for the re lease of Mr. Dillon on in order that he might appear before the commission, Mr. Grahame, for the Times, made no objection to the granting of the application. He said that two per- sons now in servitude for connection with the Phoenix Park murders would also have to be Drought before the commission.

To-morrow at 1 o'clock the preliminary meeting of the first triennial session of the Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons will be held in ‘the main hall of the Grand Army bullding. This ts what brings such a large number of doctors to ‘the city at the present time. There were not many members in the city during the early por- ton of the day, and this was attributed not to the ‘Dad weather, but to the fact that doctors do not care to eave their homes until the last minute. ‘The trains later in the day brought large dele- gations. Dr. Busey, as chairman of the committee of arrangements, was kept busy at the headquar- ters at Willard’s in receiving the members who came in to register.

After the first greeting the conversation as a rule droy into medical subjects, and such scraps as: “Yes, he died in eight days.” “It was a beautiful opera- Uon,” &c., could be heard from all parts of the room, friends in this ext, bat the great tapers are at in this city, Duc majority are az the different hotels. ‘There are three classes of hames registered.
