LONDON. July 23.-Th House of Com mons tonight entered on a aerie of Irish debatea. When th estimates tot Ireland cam up for discussion John Redmond, chairman of the Irish psrllamentary party, moved the reduction of the salary ot the chief aecretary, George Wyndham. Mr. Redmond maintained that Mr. Wyndham had done nothing for the country and that the Irish problem was more dangerous to the empire today than It had' been for a quarter of a century. v Mr. Wyndham, In refuting this assertion, declared that he could at present offer no constructive policy and maintained that there ceuld be.no recession ot agrarian strife, no revival of Industry and. no staunching ot the flow ot emigration, and that the idea ot home rule was Impossible even to those who cherished it unless and until th desolating process of social pro scription and the miasma of fear which penetrated and paralysed every nerve of national life were repudiated by the good sense of tbe people and repressed by the power of the government. Mr. Wyndham's accusation that T. W. Russell, liberal unionist, member tor South Tyrone, palliated disorder during the Ds Freyne evictions, brought out a heated denial from Mr. Russell and lengthy ex changes between himself and Mr. Wynd ham.

Latimer in his home in Brooklyn on the morning ot July S. Parker testified that on May 1, this year, Latimer visited him and employed him. "Why did Albert C. Latimer visit you?" aaktd District Attorney Clark, . . 'He told me he wanted to get evidence against his wife with a man who was known by Mr. Latimer as Tuthlll. " Parker continued: "on May I of this year I went with Mr. Latimer to Tuthlll' residence In Vanderbllt avenue, and there I was told by Mr. Latimer that It was Tut hill's house, and I was to kee j watch on It and report TuthlTTs movement to him. On May 4 I saw Tuthlll go to Latimer's bouse at about 5:30 or 6 o'clock. Latlsier was accustomed to reaoh horn as late os 6:30 or 7 o'clock."' Parksr testified that on on occasion Tut hlll went to see Mrs. Latimer at her bom and remained thero until tha middle of the afternoon. Before Parker left the stand District At torney Clark made the following statement: I have had no conversation with this witness, but I understand that he can testify that the deceased told him that In case of- his death lie would know who killed him, mentioning the names of two persons. Now this Is hearsay and not admissible under the laws of evidence. It seems to me that if this declaration is to be Introduced now It would be Illegal, censurable and cruel. As far as I am concerned, I do not propose asking this man to make that declaration. Maggie Fltsgerald, a servant employed In a house near Latimer's, says that after the shooting she saw a man she thought was Latimer go to ths window and Call for help. This witness also testified that about th time the police arrived she saw a man on the roof of th Latimer house.
