London, July- 1. Mr W. OBrien has returned to Cork. There was great excitement among the crowd which assembled to greet him, and disturbances ensued, which led to /the police using their batons freely on the heads of the mob. London, July 2. Mr Davitt, in his evidence before the Parnell - " Times " Commission I ruised the actions of Egan, Ford, and , Alexander Sullivan. He admitted he was a Fenian, bub stated he did not approve of crime. He regarded Mr Parnell as a Tory. He opposed the dynamite policy, but did not oppose the use of force where it might be considered necessary. He said that individual members of the Fenian organisation had committed assassination without the sanction of the governing body, and admitted that he once wrote professedly sanctioning murder and outrage, but he appealed to his superior officers to prevent the execution of such deeds. He had not attended a meeting of the Olan-na Gael body since 1880. He denied there was any alliance in Ireland between the Clan-na-G-ael and the Land League, and also denied that the former was a murder society. New York cablegrams state that another tragedy is believed to have occurred in connection with the American branch of the Clan-na-Gael. Dr. John Mclnery, of New York, a member of the society, is missing, and it is supposed that he has been lured by rail to Omaha, capital of Nebraska State, on the Missouri, and there murdered by members of the body, acting under instructions from headquarters. London, July 3. Tenders for the new loan will be opened on Tiiesdaj'. The final instalment will be due in December. The loan is made repayable in 1918. One of the conditions is three months' interest wiil be paid in September. The prospects of the loan are regarded as favourable. Holders of New South Wales stock express surprise at the announcement of the new loan, which they consider a breach of the pledge given in May, and a violation of Ex-Treasurer Burns's pledge not to seek the market again at an early date. | The loan is quoted at a premium of 1 per cent. It is required half for railway construction and half for redemption purposes. Chicago, July 1. Seven prisoners have been indicted for the murder of Dr. Cronin. Sullivan is not amongst the number, and it is ex- j pected he will be le- arrested and charged later on. The Grand Jury have indicted Patrick O'Sullivan, Buike, Cooney, Beggs, Coughlin, Kunze and Woodroffe, for the murder of Dr. Cronin, for trial this | month. The Oiicnt Steam Navigation Company, which has entered it. to contract for a weekly six-day service between England and Canada, guarantees to run steamers at the rate of nineteen knots an hour from either London and Cherbourg or Plymouth to Montreal or Halifax. The Government subsidy to the service is one hundred thousand pounds. Paris, July 1. M. Thevinet, in the Chamber of Deputies, produced a letter proving that Boulangists had forged documents incriminating members of the Government in connection with the alleged misappiopiiation. Perth:, July 3. A sensational attempt to wreck a train was made on the York-Beaverley line, -but luckily the diabolical scheme was discovered in time to be frustrated. The iail\vay line, for a distance of a mile and a quarter, was blocked by an accumulation of pipes, rocks and trees, so that had the train fallen into the trap most serious results would no doubt have resulted. A man named Ford and a wom&n named Bowron have been arrested in connection with the crime. AUSTRALIAN MARKETS. Syunky, July 3.
