THE PARNELL INQUIRY.
Loxdon, July 10. O'Connor, in cross-examination before ihe Painell Commission, admitted that he was a Fenian until 1880, but refused to disclose anything concerning the operations of that Society. He admitted that there had been a conspiracy to murder Judge Barrett, and that the plans were arranged. Witness had been charged with having corrupted the police, and justified his action on the ground that he considered the police capable of hanging innocent men. Sir James Hannen, President of the Court, said it was moral torture to listen to this man.
