POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. 11 iMIiBOROUGH-STREET. EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF A POLICE DIVI SIONAL SURGEON.—John Cross Richardson, of Bridge-road West, surgeon, and stated to be the surgeon to the V division of police, was charged before Mr. Knox with being drunk, behaving in a disorderly manner, using obscene language, and also with assaulting Sergeant Philps, 21 A. Mr. Abraham Myers, check-taker at the Argyle Rooms, said—Last night the prisoner came into the Argyll Rooms tipsy, having passed the money-taker. I refused to allow him to pass me, and he was put out, and when he got outside he assaulted the ser geant on duty. By the prisoner —You were trying to get in, but with the assistance of the sergeant you were pre vented because you were tipsy and very disgusting in your language. It was at the Argyll Rooms. Prisoner---I do not recollect bAng at the Argyle Rooms at all. Sergeant :Philps, 21 A—l wls upon duty last night at the Argyle Rooms when the prisoner was refused admission, being tipsy. I requested him to leave, and he then struck me three or four blows on the body. I again asked him to leave, when he refused and made use of the most obscene language I ever heard. I succeeded in getting him to the door and advised him to go away, and he then de liberately struck me in the mouth, cutting and loosening two of my teeth, and I was obliged to get the assistance of another constable before I could get him to the station. By Prisoner—l have not been obliged to go to a doctor. Prisoner—You are making a mountain out of a molehill. They hurt my arm in the cell. Sergeant Philps—You hurt yourself in falling. You were treated with the greatest kindness. Prisoner—They threw me down and crushed my arm in the cell. Weeks, 339 A, said—l was at Vine-street when the prisoner was brought in, and he made use of very bad language. I visited the cell twice, and he kicked me on the legs. Prisoner—l am a surgeon at Battersea. I was the divisional police surgeon ; and this morning I resigned my appointment, as I would not act for such dastardly low wretches. inspector Draper--I was at the station when the charge was brought in. The prisoner was very drunk and violent. He did not deny the assault on the sergeant. His language is not fit to be re peated, and we had to use force to put him in the cell. It was not till eight o'clock this morning that he would give his name and address, and he then mentioned the name of Mr. Holme, surgeon, of Clarges-street, and wished to write to him. I provided him with pen, ink, and paper, and he dropped the pen into the ink, and at the same time making use of the most filthy language threw the pen into my face. Prisoner—l went to a house in Panton-street last night and had some champagne with six girls, and I afterwards got into an altercation with the police, and I think they struck me first. I have resigned my police appointment, as I would no longer work with them. I have been surgeon to the police for six or eight years. Mr. Knox —Do you know Mr. Holme ? Prisoner—l do. Mr. Knox—l should like to see Mr. Holme, be cause I do not think the prisoner is in his right mind, and he will be the best person to speak to that fact, as he knows the prisoner. Prisoner—lt was the champagne ; it is not un usual to give persons drugged wine. _ _ Mr. have heard the case, and it occurs to me that you are scarcely a man in your right nind. 1 shall remand the case for a few days, when Mr. Holme, who you say knows you, can attend, and speak to the state of your mind ; and in the meantime if you can seed to any friend to bail you, I will take two sureties in £25 each. TIIAMES. AN ATROCIOUS 111ISCREANT.-JOIIR Crow, aged 19, a labourer, of 18, Joshua-street, Bromley, Ana not improperly called the Bromley Savage, was brought up on remand before Mr. Paget charged with assaulting three police-constables. On the night of the 30th ult. the prisoner was making a disturbance in Joshua-street, and upon Nightingale, a police-constable, 352 K, interfering and requesting him to go home, he knocked him down and kicked him. Before the police-constable could rise the prisoner fell upon him and made an attempt to commit a most atrocious and disgusting assault upon him, one even unknown in savage war fare. Fortunately the miscreant did not succeed. A . mounted police-co ns t a bl e came up and released Nightingale. The prisoner renewed the attack on Nightingale, struck him, and kicked him on the thigh. Simon Ralph, No. 32 K, and Thomas Park, No. 292 K, came to the assistance of Nightingale, and both were violently assaulted, and Ralph was disabled by blows and kicks. In answer to Mr. Paget Nightingale said " the prisoner's head was down between my legs when he made the attempt on me which I have described. I have been under the care of the divisional surgeon ever since." Mr. Matthew Bromfield, surgeon of the East India-road, said the constable Nightingale had been disabled and unfit for police duty all the week. Mr. Paget commented on the enormity of the prisoner's conduct, and sentenced him to 4 months' imprisonment and hard labour; 2 months for the outrage on Nightingale ; and a similar term for the assault on Ralph. WESTMINSTER. A PROPER CASE FOR AN INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.— John Newton, a little boy about six years of age, was charged, under the new Industrial School Act, with wandering abroad, without any home or visible means of subsistence, magistrates having power to send such unfortunates to an industrial school. Mrs. Elizabeth Warner, a charitable lady of position, living at No. 1, I Vorcester-street, St. George's-square, said the mother of this young boy died a short time ago and left two children, the elder of whom had been sent by her to school. The father had deserted the mother some years ago and gone to America. The priests had supplied the mother with money until her death, and had kept the child as long as they could. A b out three weeks ago she found him wandering, and gave him over to the care of a woman, but he had since been wandering about the lodging houses begging and subsisting upon casual relief. Hearing from the Archbishop that there was a vacancy for a boy at Walthamstowe she went to Pete r - street last evening, and found him destitute and inadepltorhe able condition. She had him washed and c l ot h ed, grdebrrohuagdhtbebttlenir before be made at magistrate. Mr. Arnoldthraeate.this morning n o said h once. What religion was the boy ? t Mrs. Warren replied that the mother w as a Catholic. _ _ _ Mr. Arnold then issued his order to send the boy to the Roman Catholic Industrial School at \Val ' : tharnstowe, where he will be kept and well brought up till he has attained the age of 16 years.

MANCHESTER, April s.—The market for shipping yarns has been very quiet to-day, and to effect sales lower prices must be accepted. There is, however, a strong conviction among sellers that prices have nearly reached the lowest, and few spinners appear disposed to enter into large contracts at the rates now offering by buyers. In home trade yarns there is about a retail business going on, and some conessiou has being made in prices. There is not much pressure to sell. In the cloth market there is no new feature. The absence of business is not greater than it has been for several days past, but ii strikes the attention more forcibly, besause this is market day. There is no positive change in prices, though they are certainly a shade weaker, and the feeling in the market is rather duller. The Times, in its quotations of the New York cotton market by cable ye s t er d a y, g ave m iddling Orleans at 263., and to-day it quotes it at 33c. Both of these quotations differ from the most reliable advices here, which place cotton at 291 c. The quotation yesterday showing a fall of 31 caused a good deal of uneas i ness here, because com menial people place great reliaace on the 7 inies's sources of information, a nd though they suspected an error, were afraid to disregard the news as in correct. CARDIFF, April 4.—Trade has improved to a slight extent at the docks consequent upon the ar rival of a good number of vessels, and the scarcity of tonnage, which has so long injuriously affected the coal trade, is likely to soon pass away. There is a better inquiry for steam coal from some of the Mediterranean and French markets, and there are hopes that the activity which prevailed during part of last year will again be witnessed this year. The mail packet companies are beginning to take larger quantities, and for the next few months they are expected to be considerable buyers. The arrival of vessels has enabled colliery proprietors to keep their pith in more regular employ, and the stop pages are not so numerous as was the case a month ago. Now that the hard weather has disappeared the railway companies are able to conduct a larger inland traffic, and the shipments of Welsh steam at Birkenhead keep up tolerably well. For house coal there is a moderate coasting sale, and the spring-like weather has caused a decrease in the local consumption. The coke proprietors have carried out a reduction of 10 per cent. in the wages of the men in their employ. Stocks of pig and puddled iron are heavy at teveral of the local establishments, and there is no material improve ment as yet experiencedin the iron trade. Conti nental requirements are small, and the advices from the United States lead to the hope that American buyers will continue to make considerable purchases. Tin plates are selling freely, and prices are fairly maintained. Railway Traffic Returns for the Week, Mlles °paned. Receipts. Railways. 18 67 . 1888. 1887 18(6 £ £ Belfast and N.

STRIKE OF THE PARIS TAILORS......At a meeting of the journeymen tailors of Paris, held on Sunday last, which was attended by 2,500 persons, it was decided to strike for higher wages. Notice was to be given to the masters on Monday, and if the conditions demanded were not complied with, the strike was to commence forthwith. In the course of the proceedings M. Deguerguo read the following telegram from the London Trades' Union, signed y Mr. Matthews :—" Your telegram received. Having entire confidence in your success we promise you our moral and material support." The meeting, after several salvos of applause, telegraphed the following reply :—" The Paris tailors assembled in the Hall of the Elysee Mont martre have received your despatch ; they accept your generous offer of assistance, and thank you in•the name of humanity and fraternity." The Groves, Wilsons, and Gibsons, of Vermont, are brushing the dust from their pedigrees, and have formed an association to investigate their supposed titles to estates in England and Holland. The Groves lay claim, through Hans Graf, who came to this country in 1717, to a gigantic property in Holland, and the Wilsons to a share in the Earl of Warwick's possessions, which consist of 25,000 acres of land twenty miles from London and 65 013411=U :wines in London. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. MIDDLESEX. We are in a position to state that Mr. Wood, the son of the Colonel Wood who successfully contested and sat for some years in Parliament as member for Middlesex, is about to contest that constituency in the Conservative interest in opposition to Mr. Labouchere, who is the Liberal candidate, and in whose favour Mr. llodgson has consented to with draw. The canvas of both these gentlemen is rapidly progressing. IHPERIAL PARLIAMENT lIOUSE OF LORDS.-LAST EVEN►NG The LORD CnikNcELLon took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. __ PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Kidderminster Gas Bill (Amendments) was read a third time. ADMIRALTY COURTS The LORP ChANCELLOR begged leave to introduce a bill to amend the action of Viee-Admiralty courts in the colonies. The bill was read a first timo. BILLS. The Fulham Railway Bill was read a second . time. RELIGIOUS (SITES) BILL. Lord CRANWORTH said that in moving the second reading of the Religious, &c., Building (Sites) Bill he need not tell their lordships that the interment of the dead had been regulated by a bill called the Mortuary Bill, and this act had controlled all grants of sites necessary for the purpose of erecting religious edifices. Now what he wished to effect by the present bill was to do away with a great deal of inconvenience, which arose in obtaining permission to erect the edifices already described. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that although ha did not intend to object 'to the bill, still he thought that it was very carelessly drawn. The noble lord then entered into tiany technical points which he considered, if insisted upon, would lead to several serious innovations. He should therefore propose as an amendment the enrolment of the deeds. The bill was then read a second time. THE MUTINY BILL. Lord LONGFORD said, that in moving the second reading of this bill that their lordships were doubtless all well acquainted with a discussion which had gone on in another place relative to flogging in the army. In conse quence the 22d clause of this bill had been altered, and it enacted that flogging should only take place under two conditions, mutiny or insubordination, accompanied with personal violence. He (the noble lord) chiefly regretted that it should be necessary at any time to enforce corporal punishment. The bill was road a second time. LYON KING-AT-ARMS (SCOTLAND) . BILL. Lord BELMORE moved the commitment of this bill, which was committed accordingly. - - ADJOURNMENT FOR THE HOLIDAYS. Lord REDESDALE moved that the hOuse adjourn for the holidays on Friday the 12th inst. This was agreed to, and the house adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS-LAST EVENIN G. The SPEAKBA took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINNISS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Caledonian Railway (Forfarshire Works, &c.), Hartlepool Gas and Water, and Ipswich Fishery. 'LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER RAILWAY (No. 3) BILL. Mr. T. HUGHES moved the suspension of standing orders in tho case of the petition from tho London, Chatham, and Dover Railway (No. 3) Bill. Col. W. PATTEN opposed the motion. Mr. CAVE thought the best course was to agree to the proposition, as it. might lead to so beneficial a► measure for the benefit of the undertaking. The motion was agreed to. THE METROPOLIS GAS ACT. The Sheriffs of the City of London presented a petition against the Metropolis Gas Act. TIPPERARY ELECTION COMMITTEE. Sir P. EGERTON brought up the report of the Tippe rary election committee, which stated that the Hon. C. White was duly elected, and that thero had not been un due influence exercised by the Roman Catholic clergy. ENFRANCHISEMENT OF WOMEN, Mr. It. GURNEY presented a petition from a large number of persons stating that they possessed evert-quali fication fur the franchise except that of sex —(loud laugh ter)—and praying . " that that circumstance might not be come a barrier to their admission to the franchise. (Loud laughter.) THE METROPOLIS GAS BILL. A great numlocr of petitions were presented by members on both sides of the house against this bill. NEW WEI T. A new writ was, on the motion of Mr. BRAND, ordered to issue for Middlesex, in the room of Mr. Hanbury, deceased. NEW BRIBERY ACT. Mr. Sergeant ARMSTRONG gave notice of his inten tion to move an addition to the oath now taken by mem bers, to the effect that they had not directly or indirectly by agents or other persons permit, sanction, or suffer bribery to be exercised on their behalf. THE REFORM BILL—THE MEETING OF LIBE RALS TO-DAY AND THEIR RESOLUTIONS. Mr. ACLAND, on the part of Mr. Coleridge, gave no tice that, on the reading the order of the day for going into committee on the Bill for the Amendment of the Repre sentation of the People, he should move that it be an instruction to the committee that they have power to alter the law of rating, so that in every parliamentary borough the occupiers of tenements of a given amount of relative value be relieved from the liability of personal rating, with a view to fix a line for the borough franchise, at and above which all occupiers should be entered on the rate book, and shall have equal facility for the enjoyment of such franchise as a, residential occupation franchise. THE REFORM BILL Mr. SYNAN asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he proposed retaining and moving in committee on the Representation of the People Bill the clause for tho use of voting papers. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he did intend to proceed with the clause, and he hoped it would be adopted ; and he hoped it would also be adopted in Ireland, as it was a country in which it would, work very advantageously. (Loud laughter.) EDUCATION. On the motion for going into supply, Mr.LOWE rose to call the attention of the house to the proposals of the Government whir respect to the arrange ment of the grant for education. Ho contended the pro posals would fail, that it would not in the least degree stimulate people as the Government desired, and that the expenditure as proposed would be altogether a waste of public money. He concluded by moving that the house dissents from so much of the minute of the Committee of Council on Education as provided for an increase of the grant now made to primary schools. Mr. CORRY defended the plan prcposed by the Go vernment. A short debate ensued, in the course of which Mr. Corry, Mr. Powell, Mr. H. A. Bruce, Mr. Henley, Mr. Pugh, and Mr. Hadfield took part, and on a division Mr. Lowe was left in a minority—the number being for the motion 203, and against it 40. Among the other subjects discussed were the practice of issuing writs for vacancies in the house under certain cir cumstances; the sentence passed by Mr. Baron Bramwell upon two prisoners tried for burglary at the late Kingston assizes ; the case of John Toomer, convicted of rape at the Berkshire assizes, and sentenced by Mr. Justice Shee to 15 years' penal servitude; the exclusion of Aberdeenshire from participation in the grant of £35,000 voted by the house for compensating the owners of cattle slaughtered under the compulsory Orders in Council ; and the build ings now in course of erection on the site of Burlington House. Sir R. PEEL called attention to the recent negotiations affecting the transfer of Luxembourg to France, and in vited Lord Stanley to give the house some information on the subject. The newspapers, it was true, had announced that the proposition had gone off, but still the circum stance that the sale of 200,000 Germans to France at about £2O a head had been contemplated threw grave suspicion upon the policy of France, and suggested the apprehension that the Emperor of the- French had made another great blunder. He hoped the noble lord at the head of the Foreign-office would be able to give an assurance that the policy of isolation inaugurated by Lords Palmerston and Russell, and which had tended so much to discredit us iu the councils of Europe, would not be carried further. He trusted that Franco had been induced to gtve up this shabby trafficking in the population of neighbouring States by the representation of the English Government. Lord STANLEY observed that although the question of Luxembourg was of very great importance, it still lay within a very narrow compass. Every one knew that Franco wished to possess the Duchy, and that the King of Holland was not indisposed to part with it. It was not, however, a fact that his Majesty was ready to part with this outlying territory unconditionally, for he desired that the wishes of the population should be consulted, and that the consent of the great Powers (Prussia especially) should be obtained. The latter had a greater interest in Luxem bourg than any other Power. Her Majesty's Government were not made aware of the negotiations between France and Holland until 10 days since. Prussia had asked for the good offices of England to dissuade the King of Holland from carrying out the proposed transfer, and he had re plied provisionally that if the people of Luxembourg should not object, and Prussia did not object, it would not be the duty of the British Government to interpose. The report that the negotiations had been abandoned had been OPPArmcd, and he, had that day reoeiyed au official lu timation to that effect from the Minister of the King of The subject then dropped. ;The report on Ways and Means was brought up and. agreed to. The Marine Mutiny Bill was read a second time. The Canada Railway Loan Bill, as amended, was con sidered avd agreed to, and the bill was read a third time and passed. Some other bills were forwarded a stage, and the house adjourned at 10 minutes past one o'clock. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. GRAND NATIONAL HUNT STEEPLECHASES.
