Condensed Cablegrams.
LONDON. In a leading article this morning The Times apologises to Messrs Parnell, Egan, Davitt and O'Kelly for the charges made against them in connection with the letters. It pleads that it was a victim to unscrupulous men, but was not a party to any conspiracy. The Times, in making its apology for the publication of the Parnell letters, stated that it firmly be'ieved them to be genuine until Pigott's avowal of the frand in the witness box. It was not Pigott who placed the documents in its hands, although he was the source of the supply. It protests against the attempts to make the Government and the Unionists responsible for acts exclusively committed by The Times. FOREIGN The famine is spreading in many parts of the Empire, and millions of people are destitute and on the verge of starvation in ' hina. Twenty-six , tnousand labourers were discharged from the Panama Canal works, which are now almost suspended.
