The '''Police Commission''' had a long sitting yesterday. Captain Standish, who was the only witness examined, gave a long account of the police proceedings in the North-eastern district in connexion with the late Kelly gang of outlaws. In the course of it he cast severe reflections on Mr Nicolson, the present acting chief commissioner of police, and Sub-Inspector O'Connor, charging the former with inefficiency, and the latter with falsehood and misconduct. He was cross-examined both by Mr Nicolson and Mr O'Connor, and it was made painfully apparent during this part of the proceedings that the relations between the late chief commissioner of police and the two gentlemen named are of a most hostile character. Captain Standish ultimately expressed his wish to withdraw some remarks of his attacking Mr O'Connor's private character. The commission meet again at 11 am to-day.
