THE PARNELL INQUIRY.
CONTEMPT OF COURT.
London, November 20. Mr. Edward Harrington, of the Kerry Sentinel, has been fined £500 for contempt of Court in publishing an article charging the Times-Parnell Commission with partiality. Received November 23,1.15 a.m. London, November 21. The proceedings of the League in Kerry formed the subject of evidence before the Times-Parnell Commission to-day. The son of Curtin, who was boycotted and eventually murdered, admitted he was a member of the League, but did not believe the League had any connection with the murder of his father. Norah Fitzmaurice, whose father also fell a victim to agrarian outrage, was one of the witnesses examined.
Leonard, agent for Lord Kenmare, gave testimony as to the punishment of tenants for paying rent and "landgrabbing." These outrages began at Killarney, after speeches by Parnell and O'Donoghue. After violent speeches by O'Brien, Healy, and E. Harrington, outrages increased in number and violence.
