Da 0 N 71 d -A Y Sri K 1 7 . T AN f T ? . 1 I n fl 117171LL/GEN CITY, Two O'CLOCK. In the Liverpool cotton market yesterday a very firm appearance was manifested, and prices of all descriptions tended upwards. The sales were esti mated at from 12,000 to 15,000 bales, 2,000 of which were taken by the speculators, and 1,000 by the exporters. The railway share market closed steadily, and quotations were without any mate rial alteration. About 12,000/. in Australian gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. It is expected that the greater portion of the gold brought by the Copenhagen will be taken for the continent. Business in the silver market is restricted, and bars are quoted ss. 11d. per oz. standard. Owing to the payment of the 1,000,0001. clue to day upon the Indian loan, there has been an increased demand for discount accommodation in Lombard-street and also at the Bank. This addi tional inquiry, however, is merely temporary, for in the existing state of the market, the subscription of a million sterling cannot exert much influence, especially as the money will almost immediately be distributed, in liquidation of the Company's engagements. The whole amount of 5,000,0001. will after all be merely a transfer from one class to another, as the loan will only be sufficient to enable the directors to meet their payments as they fall due. The distribution of the dividends to the public commences to-day, and this will assist to increase the supply of money in the open market, and partially counteract the effect of the Indian Loau subscription. No alter ation has taken place in the current rates, despite the increased applications of money, and really good bills are in request at 2i per cent. Many persons still retain the imprelsion that the mini mum will be reduced eventually to 21 per cent , but this opinion is not general, nor, so far as can be judged at present, is it likely to prove correct. Some doubt is expressed whether the whole of the call on the Indian Loan will be subscribed very readily, as some of those who offered 99 will be loth to give it when the Bonds are 981 If this im pression should be verified, however, the difficulty will be only temporary, for the securities are getting popular, and are likely to attain a still more satis factory premium. For some days past the embarrassments of an ex tensive brewing establishment have been the su b ject of general conversation, more especially amongst the trade. It appears, however, that the private property of one of the partners is very considerable, and, if disposed of, which will no doubt be the case within a short period, the creditors will ultimately receive the full amomit of their claims, and this eminent firm will be enabled to continue their business. This event has caused deep regret, as it was least expected, and seeing the numbers of people dependent on the establishment, it will be a source of satisfaction to the public to hear of arrangements being made which will enable the firm to surmount their difficulties. The funds remain heavy at about the closing prices of yesterday. Business is very dull, and a few operations seem to have a marked effect. There is no disposition to operate for a fall, and those who entertain a favouralA opinion of affairs are afraid to buy, owing to the flatness at Paris, the Budget, and the possibility of a loan. Consols have been 96k g, and 96g 4 for money ; for account they are marked 961 a. They are now 96g I and 96l / respectively, being firmer. The New 3 per Cents. are 96k ; the Reduced 954 g ; and India Loan Debentures, 98# • India Bonds are 20s. to 225. prem. ; and the June Exchequer Bills, 355. to 395. prem. The transactions recorded in the Foreign Stock Market are not very numerous, and prices have nearly all declined. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 100 to 1001 ; and the 4 per Cents., 104 ; Venezuela 41 per Cents, are 311; Dutch 24 per Cents., 65k ; Peruvian 41 per Cents., 811 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 45a 1 ; Buenos Ayres 6 per Cents., 77i ; Chilian 6 per Cents., 102; ; Ditto 3 per Cents., 72 ; and Spanish Passive, 7.

Admiral is expected to return to this city n , xt Tue 4 JELY, w e'e will undoubt e dl y procee d at once to negotiate with a Now York shipbuilder for the construction of the great Ottoman frigate. The Admiral was desirous that the - United States government should take the contract pro bably under the impression that he would gfit a better bargain from the Government than from a private con tractor. This idea was perfectly nature Ito one not ac customed to our " institutions," and yet everybody at all familar with th em k nows i t to b e entirely fallacious. Private enterprise takes the lead in this country—and the admiral can get his job done cheaper, better, and quicker b y any competent shipbuilder, than the Government could possibly do it—even if the latter lould consent to take the contract, which of course would not.—New York Journal of Commerce. otindee d tie=s of the end shady own free into the let . us at d night's n time to the day.

Giovanni Laui, a nativo of Duomo d'Ossola, on the Lago di Comino, was placed at the bar charged with the wilful murder of Heloise Thaubin, in the Haymarket. The prisoner is 21 years of age. He stands about 5 feet 10 inches high, and his appear ance is as youthful as his age would imply, He is rather a good-looking young man, of rather sallow complexion, without beard or moustache, but with jt-it black hair. He wore an Italian cloak and cloth gloves. His demeanour in Court was more sedate than at the police-court ; and he appeared to be impressed with the awful posit ion in which he stood —that of his being tried for his life for the murder of the unfortunate woman above-named. The Court was densely crowded. There were a number of well-dressed gentlemen present, and guessing from their dress and the quantity of whisker and moustache worn by them—if that now be a test—they appeared to be foreigners. The Sardinian Consul was present, and watched the proceedings on behalf of the prisoner. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. °lake prosecuted. Mr. Tindal Atkinson and Mr. Austin defended the prisoner. Mr. Bodkin, in stating the case to the jury, said that the prisoner, in the exercise of his discretion, had chosen to he tried by a jury of Englishmen, instead of half Englishmen and half foreigners, as he had a right to claim, and he (the learned coun• el) was sure the prisoner would receive at their hands strict and impartial justice. The deceased woman was one of those unfortunate women who infested the West End of London, and lodged in Atundel-nlace, in a house kept by a woman named Levy, who followed the same course of life as the deceased. In order to attract the unwary, the deceased woman was in the habit of wearing certain articles of jewellery which would be proved to have an important bearing on the case. There were other articles of clothing which would also have a material connection with the inquiry. The learned counsel detailed the crime, connected with the prisoner's appearance and conductC in the house, and with the victim of the alleged murder, and said that he should be prepared to prove the facts he had stated by the most ample evidence. He also detailed the circumstances connected with the extraordinary capture at Gravesend, when on the point of sailing for Monte Video. Interpreters having been sworn, The first witness called was Julie Levy, a foreign Jewess. She said—l am the landlady of No. 8, Arundel-court, and have been so for about four mouths. I knew the deceased Heloise Thaulain. She lodged in my house. I first knew her about three months ago, when she came to lodge with me. Deceased got her living by seeing gentlemen. She occupied the front room on the third floor of my house. On the night of the 23d February I was walking in Charles-street, Haymarket, about ten o'clock. Heloise Thaubin was also in the streets at that time. The prisoner spoke to me in Charles-street, and we conversed together for some minutes. I had my watch and chain on, and seve ral rings on my fingers. The prisoner asked me if I was a Frenchwoman, and I said no. I th-n spoke to him in German, but he did not reply. I then pointed out to him my residence, and we walked up and down the Haymarket together. About half-past ten o'clock I was in Arundel court. I saw the prisoner there. He was talking with two women at the door of my house —one of them was the deceased. At 11 o'clock the prisoner came to my house in Arundel-court alone. He knocked at the door and asked br "Madame." I was in my parlour at the time with an old lady. The door was opened by my servant, Anne Brown, and on seeing the prisoner I recognised him imme diately. The prisoner sail he camo to pass the night with me. 1. did not entertain his proposals, partly from expecting a friend, and partly because he only offered me ten francs, which I considered too little at that early hour. The !prisoner said to my servant, Anne Brows, " Well, then, I will sleep with the woman I spoke to in the court. The servant went to find the deceased, and, meet ing with her in Waterloo-place, brought her to the house, and the prisoner and the deceased went up stairs to the bedroom of the deceased, hut I did not see them go into the room together. I did not see the deceased again alive. She wore a watch and chain, and had on two rings, one with a white the other with a red stone. Cross-examined—l had kept this house about six months, but I have left it and sold the furniture. I never kept such a house before in England or abroad. Four gay women lived in the house. Deceased had no jewellery of her own. I don't know where the gay women bought their dresses, they were their own. There was a man named Mouton living in the house. He sold jewellery. He came to see Virginie Sylvestre. I think he hal another home. .1 don't know if Mouton slept in the house always, as I do not trouble myself with my lodgers at all. The ladies pay me weekly for their lodgings ; none of them were in debt to me at the time. I don't know if Mouton was in ' thi house at eleven o'clock that night. Mr. Disher, the husband of one of the women, who lived in the house with her, is a tailor, and works out of the house. I don't know if Disher and his wife quarrelled that night. The witness then gave the names of the persons living in the house at the time, and the apartments they occupied. Juliette lived in the back garret ; the deceased in the front garret. The second floor was occupied by Madame Sylvestre, and the hack by Madame Disher. The first floor (two rooms) was occupied by a Belgian woman, but I don't know her name. I think her name was Anna, but I don't know, as she had not lived there long. I was the landlady of the house but the servant let the rooms. The Belgian wo man was a gay woman• She met a lover at her house. I believe he was a Frenchman. I saw the Belgian woman's lover on the night the deceased visited Heloise. I recollect now, it was the night following the death of Heloise that the Frenchman came. I recollect it because I was so bad. I don't know if the Belgian woman was in the house the night of Helcise's death. I took no particular notice of her, as she bad boen so short a time in the house. I never saw the Frenchman speak to Heloise. I saw the Belgian woman about 4 or 5 o'clock in the day after the death of Heloise. That was the first time I F.aw her that day, and she came into my parlour. I occupied the whole of the ground floor. My bed room was at the back. No one slept with me that n i g ht. No one came to visit me that night. I did expect a friend, but he did not come. The kitchens • were below. I kept two servants—Anne Brown, and a little woman, who has since left. The one who left slept in the kitchen, and Anne Brown out of the house. Anne Brown left sometimes at one and sometimes two o'clock in the morning, and came about 10 or 11 o'clock in the forenoon. The servant who slept in the house was about 20 years of age. She went to bed about 1 o'clock on the night in question, and got up about 7 or 8 o'clock the following morning. It was the ser vant's business to wash the passage every morning. I wore four rings on the night of the 23d of Feb. when I first met the prisoner in the Thymarket. All of them are diamond rings. Deceased wore that night a ring with a real stone, like what gen tlemen wear in their pins. I believe it was a gar net. The prisoner was very cross when I declined to sleep with him. He did not say anything, but looked downwards and appeared very cross, as he could not speak French. He said something to my servant. Virginie Sylvestre said—l live at 48, Lisle-street. lam not a gmy woman. I am supported by M. Mouton. At the time in question, I lived at 8, Arundel-court, where he lived with me. He slept in the house on the night Heloise met with her death—he slept there every night. I knew the deceased very well. She deponed that she went out with Heloise in Waterloo-place, and there met the prisoner and Madame Levy. I did not hear him ask Madame Levy to let him sleep with her, hut he said he had asked her, and in case she re fused, he would sleep with one of us. We then parted. About a quarter to 11 o'clock I saw the prisoner again. He again said if he did not sleep with Madame Levy he would with me or deceased. The deceased said, "Let me alone," and the pri soner replied, "Good night," and went away. In a short time Anne Brown came after us, and spoke to the deceased at the corner of Jermyn-street, saying that a gentleman was waiting for her at Arundel-place. - The deceased walked towards Arundel-place, and the servant walked behind. I went back to Arundel-place about 1 o'clock in the morning, and called out to Heloise (the deceased) to come to supper. The first time I called Heloise, she said she was engaged and could not come down ; the second time I called to her, I said, "It does not matter, come down." 1 then heard the pri soner say if she wanted a supper he offered her one. After this she came down, and we took sup per together. Mouton was in bed. She remained till about half-past two o'clock, and then left the room and went upstairs to her bedroom. I took a glass of beer to a sick person, and saw the deceased go upstairs. I asked the deceased for a book. _T o t!! ut prisoner opened the door in his shirt and vith the his stockings, gave me the book, and loc ked u pon the door.

QUESTION AS TO DISCHARGE IN BE NAST:I.-IMPORTANT FROM CUSTODY, This bankrupt formerly carried on business as a wine merchant in College-hill, and his certificate was ?Im pended for two years, without protection for six months, and a certificate was granted to a creditor on which bankrupt was arrested and lodged in the Queen's Bench prison. He had only been in custody eleven days, but the six months having expired Mr. Lawrance now applied for protection, which would operate as a dis charge. Mr Bayley opposed on the ground that the bank rupt had kept out of the way to avoid being arrested, and therefore was not entitled to protection. Mr. Lawrance was instructed to deny this, and sub , witted that the Court not only had the power to grant the protection, but could not travel out of its own order which had been carried out, and it bad been held by Mr. Coinmissioner Holroyd that where protection had been refused for a given time if the creditors did not avail themselves of their power to imprison a bankrupt, the bankrupt was entitled to protection after the time for which it bad been suspended. His Honour said he inclined to that view, but there must be an affidavit that the bankrupt bad not kept out of the way. The case was adjourned for affidavits on both sides. The question of oasts to abide the result. IN ItIC WATTS. This bankrupt wasdZribed; of Tottenham, and late of Tenter-street, Moorfields, picture dealer, and this was a meeting in proof for debts. The accounts are in course of preparation by Messrs. Butler and Canningq, but the amount of the liabilities has not yet been ascertained, but is said to be large.

I called to the deceased, but received no answer, and, having tried the door, I found it locked. About 8 o'clock I saw the room burst open. 1 saw leer things lying on the table, and I then looked ;-.1- the bed. After the bed-clothes were removed 1 saw the de ceased, her back was towards ine. She was lying upon her face with her head between two pillows (the pillows were noi; over her head). Her arms were turned back. The doctor came about 5 minutes after the door was broken open by Fairfield. During the interval I went down stairs, and Mouton stood outside the door, shut if, and said no one should enter till the arrival of the medical man. Deceased wore that night a watch and chain, two rings, and a pair of earrings. O n Wednesday evening when I went to deceased's room, I did not see any of those articles. I knew th©m perfectly well—one of the rings she only pos sessed the Sunday before. Witness then detailed the articles, belonging to the deceased, missed. When the prisoner went into the house, he had no marks on his face. I noticed him particularly. Cross-examined— I have resided in the house about five months and a half with Mouton. I never lived in any other house with Madame Levy. I knew her from seeing her in the streets, just a: Frenchwomen know each other. I don't know where she lived before. Sometimes I took male friends home to Arundel-court when Monsieur Mouton was out. He was always out in the day, and went to a certain place to spend his evenings. Mouton came home on Wednesday to break fast at one o'clock, then he took a walk with Disher and came home to dinner. I saw the Frenchman in the house after the doctor came. Am certain Heloiso wore two rings on the night in question. She took great pride in showing them. I very often go into Waterloo-place and talk to other women. I did not consent to sleep three in a bed with He'oise and the prisoner. He did not ask me. No one ever proposed it. Theophile Mouton—l lodged in February with the witness Sylvestre, at Madame Levy's. lam a commis sion agent. At half-past seven o'clock on Wednesday night I broke open the bedroom-door of the deceased. Several persons were with me at the time, I went to the bed and removed the bedclothes from the deceased, and gave her a little push. I called out, " Heloise, will you come to dinner !" She did not move, and I then saw she was dead. The deceased was lying as described by the witness Sylvestre, and the room was in great dis erler. The sofa bad been pulled in front of the fire. Deceased was, lying on her belly, with her face between the pillows ; her arms were turned back, and her fingers were cramped or contracted, as if she had endeavoured to defend herself ; her arms were spotted blue ; when I discovered the body, I covered it up again, and it re mained in that state till the doctor came. I did not disturb the position of the body when I touched it Cross-examined—l am a commission agent. I work for several persons. I deal in every article given to me for sale. I get work where I can. Iw rk for M. Jochotn, 5, Mead's-court, Wardour-street, Sobo. I for merly dealt in jewellery. Mr. T. Atkinson—Do you cell jewellery to gay women ? Witness—l sell them where I can. Ido not choose my customers. I slept at Madame Levy's with Madame Sylveetre every night. We lived there. I did not know that Madame Levy was a gay woman. Ido not lose my tme in enquiring into such matters. I bad seen her several times before. I went to live at her house. Virginia paid the rent of the room. Such questions are not reasonable. (Laughter.) I helped Virginie as much as possible, like friends. All the money I earned came into the house for the benefit of the household. Eliza Disher sworn—l lodged at 8, Arundel-place. About half-past 7 oa Wednesday morning I saw prisoner go down stairs. I was go;ng down stairs, and the prisoner was behind, and he passed me at the bottom of the stairs. The night beflre I bad quarrelled with my hus band, and I sat on the stairs Lear my door from half past 2 till 7 o'clock. About a few minut , ,s before 7 o'clock I heard three groans from the top room, and about half-an-hour afterwards the prisoner came down si airs and followed me without speaking down the other flight of stairs. He passed me at the landing without speaking, and quitted the house. He opened and closed the dcor himself. He had nothing in his hand, but he appeared stout cl)out the shoulders ; he pre sented a stouter appearance about the breast than now ; he had a large brown coat with loose sleeves ; it had no hood like the one he has on now ; it was quite light at the time ; when the prisoner got outside he turned round and looke,l at me. Julie Levy, recalled Cross-examined by Mr. T. Atkinson—The prisoner was dressed in the same coat AS now; a coat like it, but I don't know if it had a hood to it. [The prisoner was dres-ed in a large ;Out coat or cape, braided, with a hood.] His coat that night was braided like the one he now has on ; lie had on a coat braided like the one he now wears when in my hos:e. By. Mr. Bodkin— No male person slept in the room with the sick person. Virginie Sylvestre recalled—Examined by Mr. T. At kinson—When I first saw the prisoner he was dressed just the same as he is now—the colour was brown blue. By the Judge—l don't know if it bad a hood to it. Eliza Dtsher recalled and mos-Examined by Mr. T. Atkinson.—l panelled with my husband about eleven o'clock, and went down into the kitchen. I took up my position on the stairs about half-past 2, remaining till near 7. I wa; awake the whole of the time. lam mar ri-d to Disber. I was married to him at Great Bealingo, about 2 years ago. I had resided in this house about three weeks when the occurrence happened. I knew nothing cf the habits of the inmates. I thought them quiet people. Some of them went to bed early, others late. I went out of the room by my own accord. My husband several times called to me, saying I had no t , u.iness to be en the stairs ; but I persisted in doing so. I saw lieloise go up stairs about half-past two, just as I came up from the kitchen and sat on the stairs. I saw no other pass up or down the stairs between that time and morning. I did not get drowsy at all. It was quite light at half-past 7 o'clock that morning. The peeson who then went down stairs bad on a brown coat with loose sleeves. My husband is a tailor Toe coat worn by the man is known as a paletot ; it bad braid round the buttons. I know nothing of the jewellery won' by the ladies. By Mr. Bodkin—l heard Virginie go up stairs about five minutes atter deceased went up. I heard her knock at deceased's door and ask for Heloise. I hcar(l her re- turn 1 not d►rectly after she went up. From that time t►ll the prisoner came down no person went up or down the stair:. t did not notice if his face was scratched or not, although he turned round and looked at me as ho went out of the door. By the Judge—The three groans I heard were not loud. They were immediately one aster each other. That was all the noise I heard. If there ha I been a violent scuffle I think I should have heard it. If there bad been fighting, or violent struggling, I am certain I ehould have heard it. I heard the groans distinctly, though they were not very loud. The coat was not like the one the prisoner has now on. I can't say if coats with hoods can be worn inside or outside on the shoulders. At the time I thought the screams came from the sick room. The Court adjourned at two o'clock for a short time. Mr. Frederick Tuthill, of 8, Charlee-street, St. James's.- square, surgeon to the C division of police, said—l was called into the house No. 8, Arundel-place, at half-past 9 on the night of the murder, and found the deceased in a top room lying on her face on the bed, her head sup ported by pillows, and the rest of her body covered with the bed-clothes. I observed nothing particular on re• moving the clothes beyond the way in which the body was lying. I turned the body over, and found the chest and abdomen rather warm. The general appear kllCo of the body was livid and ecchymose ; the face was swollen, the featurce distorted, and the eyes prominent, with the pupils dilated. There was mucus running from the nose, the tongue was protruding and swollen ; on the lower and front part of the windpipe a dark livid spot was visible, about the size of a tourpenny piece, and the fingers were contracted and nails livid. I made a post mortem examinalon ou Saturday morning, assisted by Mr. Palmer, the house surgeon of Charing-cross Hospital. On removing the skull I examined the brain, and came to the conclusion that death bad been occasioned by strangulation. The facts fully bore out the opinion I had previously formed. In my judgment death was produced by strangulation by some other person. Pressure on the windpipe was, in my opinion, the immediate cause of death. I should say, from the appearance of the deceased, she had been dead eight or ten hours—it might be longer. The pesi tion in which the bsdy was lying, the bedclothes over it, and the gravitation of blood towards the parts, would account for the degree of warmth I have spoken of in the chest and abdomen ; the extremities were per fectly ccld. Cross-examined by Mr. T. Atkinson—Deceased was no', a woman of full habit. There was nothing remark able about her ; she was a healthy woman, and no trace i f disease could be found in the body. She was a woman of ordinary strength. I have given a most careful con sideration to the appearances on the body, and have come to the conclusion that death was caused by stria , - gulatiou. By Mr. Bodkin—lt was not probable, or even poil- b sible, that Heloise could have caused her own death .): straneulation in the manner describe'.

Sergeant John Rogers, C 6.—On Saturday, the 27th of February, I had brought Madame Virginia from the inquest held at Charing-cross Hr tal to the prisoner at the Vine-street station. She said •in my hearing, in French (I understand French perfectly), to the pris on -r, "That's him 1" He immediately touched me en the siosuider and said.

We returned to London that evening by railwa and at the station she was met by a French gentlems with whom she went away, and I did not see her aga' Some few minutes after this statement, Madame gir.ie asked if the watch bad been found, the pet touched me on the shoulder and raid, "The watt been stolen from me by some Englishwomen, ar' fending myself from them I got my face scratcl nis manner."

I gave him 30s. for the watch and Bs. for the ring. Cross examined by Mr. Austin----I afterwards sold the watch to Mr. Moses for 325. Mr. Moses—The watch produced is the same watch purchased cf the last witness. Philip Croom, waiter at Kleen's Hotel, said—P r i soner arrived there on the Bth February, and remained till the 233. He slep out that night. On the following d a y he returned in a cab. He held a handkerchief to his face, and on my asking him what was the matter, he said lie had been on board all night, and that a cat had scratched his face. I replied, it looked more like the scratches of a " human cat," and appeared to have been done by a young la ly, and he nodded assent. Prisoner went up for his portmanteau, paid his bill, and left the hotel. I noticed marks of blood on his shirt. Cross-examined—The scratches were about the breadth of a human finger nail, and that caused me to make the remark about a "human cat." Prisoner had the same cloak on as he has now— he bad it on loose about him. The witness was re-called, and identified the various articles found in the prisoner's baggage on boar I ship, as belonging to Heloise, and being in her possession on the night she met the prisoner, especially the rings, watch, brooch, and ear-rings. The clock was hung up in Heloise's room, near the chimney, and I saw it there the morning previous to her being found dead. The case for the prosecution closed at ten minutes to five o'clock. Mr. T. Atkinson said he felt it difficult upon the vast mass of evidence that had been adduced to address the jury for the prisoner to-night. Mr. Justice Crompton paid it must rest mostly with the jury. He was ready to go on, and he thought it might begot over by ten o'o!eek. The jury said they were ready to go on if his lord ship wished. Mr. Justice Crompton said if the learned counsel Mt b e could not then do ju•tice to the prisoner's case he should adjourn the Court. The Court wai accordingly tv:journed until to-morrow, and the jury locked up. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Bylee.) THE ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON. The grand jary entered the court at a quarter past one, and announced they bad found, true bill against Edward Truelove for misde- meanou A trua bill against Stanislans Tcherewaki for misde• meanour, and A true bill against Simon Bernard, Thomas Allsop, Felice Ore,ini, Piotri, Gomez, and Carl Rudio, for feloniously attempting " to kill and murder a sovereign prince, to wit, his Imperial Majesty, Louis Napoleon, Emperor of the French." CHARGE OF ARSON. William Henry Parker, 32, dealer, was indicted for feloniously setting fire to certain premises situate in Monk well-street, City, with intent to defraud the West minster Fire Insurance Company of the sum of 1,0001. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Bodkin appeared fair the prosecution, and Mr. Sergeant Parry defended the prisoner. Mr. Bodkin, in opening the case, entered into a state ment of the facts, which have already appeared in Thit Sun, and said that as there was no person on the pre mises when this alleged offence was committed, the charge against the prisoner would not effect his life. The fire, it will be recollected, occurred o n th e 10th o f l ast month; and in a few days after the occurrence, the prisoner sent in a claim to the fire-office for upwards of 5001., for damage done, which turned out to be a very exorbitrut claim ; one item in the document being 260/. for brown paper patterns, which it was now stated were not worth more than 101., and various suspicious circumstances had Induced the Westminster Fire Insurance Company to institute the present proceedings. James E. Ba)lis—l am an engineer in the London Fire Brigade. On the 10th of March I was called at 10 micutei to 9to a firs ix 111011 well-street. I broke the door open and entered the house, but found no per son on the premises. The principal part of the fire was um der the cutting board in the centre of the shop, but the fire was burning all round. The patterns and contents of the shop were on fire. There was no gas burning in the shop, neither was there a fire-place or stove. There was a door to the cutting-board, that covered a bin which received the cuttings if the materials used in the prisoner's trade (a mantle-maker). The fire when it reached this spot would communicate with the shop. Tne fire was burning in the cellar under the cutting-board. I remained in possession of the premi , es until the prisoner was taken into custody, but he had free access to the house. George Cole, sub-engineer to the London Brigade--I arrived at the fire shortly after it broke out. On entering the premi•es I saw a hole in the floor of till shop. I looked down an I saw the gas full on. There was a very large volume of flame. The height of the flooring above the burner was ten inches, and the fire came through the shop floor. I found a gas branch in the cellar unscrewed from its place, and the burner turned upwards towards the shop floor. I found three screw■ on the cell❑r floor. They fitted the screw holes in th• post from whlch the branch had been removed. Th• n',oplo or burner bad been taken out of the branch. The flame woutd rise at least ten inches from such an opening. By the Judge—l extinguished Vie flame. John Foulger—l am an inspector of City police. I went to Monkwell.street on the 10. h of March. I found Baylis and other firemen there. I tried the screws found by the last witness, and they exec ly fitted the holes in the post I have tried them since, but the holes have been made so large that the screws now fall out. Some further evidence having been given, the court adjourned till to-morrow. POLICE INTF.T.T.IGENCE.—(This Day).
