The polico in their offorts to control the mob have beon making a freo use of their batons, with the result that several civilians have beon injured Mr. Timothy Healy, who was horse- whipped yesterday by Mr. McDermott, nephew of the late Charles Stowart Parnell, and solicitor for the Parnell family, was one of tho speakers. He said, among otber things, that ho woula not be deterred by violence from pursuing the course he had mapped out for himself, and repeated the language In referonce to the widow of tho Irish leador which ho used at Longford on Sunday last, and which led to the chastisement he ceived at the hands of Mr. McDerniott. Mr. Dillon on arriving at Waterford, was recoived with mingled cheers and hisses. Three hundred police guarded the feaeration delegates on their wi to the convention, which was held i the city hall. The polico ropellea repoated charges mado by the mob. Tho Paruellito sympathizers tried to rush through the entranco of the city hall, bu ‘were beaten back. Tho convention proceeding, Mr. Dillon confirmed Mr. O'Briens Boulogne rovela- tions, and added that the men now calling him a traitor had telographed 10 bim whilo he was in Now York, offering bim the leader- ship in succossion to Mr. Purnell, Continu ing Mr. Dillion suid that in spite of tho continuous calumnios heaped upon him, he had never beforo revealod this fact. Moss Harrington and Redmond and other promi nont Parnellites had joined in the request, which was made after he hao declared against the leadership of Mr. Parnell.

After arriving at Bulogno ho told them that he could not_accept the position uniess all con- curred in promisiug loyal support. Those men, one and all, promised that if ho took the 'chairmanship they would be his loyal followers. He had done nothing siuce that altered his position & hairs- breadth. For weeks at Boulogne they wereas anxious to get Mr. Paruell out of tho leadership as the majority wore. 1f they had steadily adlhiered to that volicy they might havo saved Mr. Parnell from an impossiblo position. Ifany onein the world was ro- sponsivle for Mr. Parnell's fate, ufter Mr. Parnell hiwself, it was the men who, when the supremo Hour came, had not sufficient courage, manliness or honorable friendship |to take a firm stand and impose their jud g ment on him. [Cheers.] Mr. Dillon loft the convention hall on s way to the railway station guarded by police and 100 priests. A mob followed and kept up & continuous attack until Mr. Dillon obtained sholter in tho station. A number ot skulis ‘were cracked. Thirty delegates, while crossing a toll bridge, were thrown to the ground and tramplod upon, many being hurt and bleod- {ng profusely when rescued by the police.

Recommentations and Suggestions of' the Chief of Oranance Wasnixaroy, D. C., Noy. 4.—Brigadier General Flagler, chief of ordnance, in his aunual report to the socrotary of war, says that the work of supplying our fortifications with new models of disappearing carringes for large guus, is some years behind the guns. e recommends the construction of a sea- coast carringo factory and the further en- Jargement of the facilities for the manufact- at the Watertown arsenal, The report states that the department has thus completed two eight-inch, one ten-inch and one twelve-inch breechloading, steel xifled guns. One of the eight-inch guns was tested with German smokeless powder with significant results, £fty pounds of the com- pound giving tho projectile a_highor velocity with about the same pressure as 125 pounds of black powder. The time allowed the Pneumatic Dyna- mite Gun company for the delivery of ten guns has been exiended to January 1 next for the first delivery and July 1, 1502 for the last detivery. Amoug tlie estimates submitted is ono of £1,122,000 for oil tempered and annealed steol foreight, ton and twelve inch gurs, nclud ing the parts required for the manufacture of a typo sixteen inchgun. On the subject of this groat gun—about equal in s1z0 to tho largest rifle in the world, General Fiagler gays: Recent improvements in tho resisting power of ships armor vould seem to still Turther emphasize the already recoguized necessity for guns of this calibro. As it would bo foolish to couciudo that the im- provements in the resisting power of armor have reached thewr final limit, and as much timo is required for completing u type of gun of such high power as may have become an mbsoluto uccessity for overcoming such rosist- anen, the sooner the work 1s commenced the better. Other estimate Boa coust mo For steel twalve inch 5,000; for thirty car. ringos, i for " carriages for now eight, ten and twelve-inch guns, §1,505,000; for pulargement of the heavy gun carriago plant st Watertown, Mass., 3151,000; for armor iorcing projectiles, £20,000; deck piercing welve inch shells, $100,000; alteration of Aftecn and sixteen inch carriages, $100,000, The report describes at length the exbaus- tive experiments made by the department with maguzine small arms, including the latest Europear models. On' this subject the report suys: That but fow mugazine guns of American design have yet been brought be- fore the board. This depart- ment is doing all in its power to afford American inventors all opportunity to meet tho requirements of new existing con- ditions, namely the change in calibre and tho fntroduction of smokeiess powder. The in- vestigatious made and knowledge gainea by this department have not demonstrated so much excellonce in the magazino arms which have been adopted by foreizn nations as was expected, and have not shown such per- footion in any ouo of them as could warrant ts adoption for ourservice. It is hoped that this country can produce a better arm, aud until it can, or certainly until it has been demounstrated thut it cannot, it would bo bo wise to dofer a change from the excellont pluglo loader now in service to a magazine pystem.
