At the sitting of the Police Commission yesterday, Mr O'Connor complained of a paragraph that recently appeared in a contemporary professing to give the opinion of the commission regarding his conduct, and stated that it was most unfair and prejudiced his case. The commissioners, who have not yet finished taking evidence regarding Mr O'Connor's connexion with the Kelly operations, entirely repudiated the paragraph, and disclaimed any responsibility for it .

Constable Barry, one of the force engaged in the Kelly operations,was examined. During his evidence, some questions put by Messrs. Sadleir and O'Connor raised the point as to how far the officers concerned were justified in taking part in the proceedings. After some discussion, the officers were told that they might put questions to elicit information as to their own conduct or to protect themselves but not to discredit any other officer.
