THE KNIFFIN CABE
No Indictment by the Geand Jury—The
Suspects Go Pree.
TreENTON, Feb, 14,—The grand jury,
after considering the evidence in the
mysterions Knitlin murder case, ro-
ported to Justice Beasley, of the Mercer
county court. They found no bill
against Dr. Kniflin nor Miss Pureell,
who were charged by Detective Relger
with the murder, Lawyer Dartren
moved for the discharge of the bonds-
men, Prosecutor Stockton consented
to the discharge of the sureties on Dr,
Kniflin's bond, but not those on Miss
Pureell's bonds, He gave no reason for
holding them, except that something
mignat turn up.
Jistice Beasley said that both the ac
cused were free because the grand jury
and coroner's jury after due delibera-
tion could see no evidence on which to
hold them. The order for the release of
the bondsmen was then signed, David
Purcell, brother of Emma Purcell, was
present, and was congratulated on the
outcome of the grand jury's sitting.
of the Parnell Commission.
Feb, 14. The report of the
Parnell special commission presented to
parliament finds that the respondent
members of the house of commons were
not members of a conspiracy to es
tablish the absolute independence of
Ireland, but that some of them, to
gether with Michael Davitt, joined the
Land League with the intention to ac
complish by its means the independence
of Ireland as a separate nation. The
commission entirely acquits Mr. Par
nell and the other accused members of
insincerity in their denunciation of the
Phoenix park murders and finds that the
fac simile letter published in The Times,
upon which the charge was chiefly
based as against Mr. Parnell, was a
forgery. The respondents, the report
continues, did not directly incite crime,
The mass of evidence proved that the
League in America since 1853 has been
directed by the Clan-na-Gael and been
actively engaged in promoting the use
