SUSPECTED ATTEMPT TO DESTROY THE NINE-
ELMS RAILWAY STATION BY FIRE.

On Saturday afternoon, after the men had left
work at the Nine Elms-station for the day, the watchman
on duty proceeded on his rounds as usual, when his atten-
tion was attracted by a pile of wood nucler one of the work-
men's benches. He then found that under the wood and
coils was a quantity of dry shavings. Following the direc-
tion of the line in which the &having, were laid, and remov-
ing them with great can, the watchman disoovered a box of
Inciter matches placed in such a position that any person not
perceiving the dangermuld scarcely avoid treading on them,
There are adjacent to the workshops several large ranges of
WlLTlliomes well stored with valuable goods, and had the
workshops caught fire the whole of than buildings might have
been destroyed, together with the contents. Mr. Scott im-
mediately set an inquiry on foot, and which inquiry ia still
progressing.

EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ALLEGED MAN-
SLAUGHTER IN EPPING FOREST.
LVQIIEST7—(THIS DAY)
At noon to-day, Mr. John Humphreys, coroner,
held an inquiry at the London Hospital respecting the death
of Henry Brinkley Jameson, aged 13 years, who wee shot
by soother boy, earned John Mcrdaunt.
Mr. Maynard, from the office of Mr. Beard, attended to
watch the case for Mordaunt, and Superintendent Howie
bad the management of it for the commissioner of police.
W. J. Jameson, brother of the deceased, mid that he
raided at No. 12, George-street, DaLion. His father was
• clerk. On Wednesday, the 7th inst., witness and deceased,
and two other lads, were at Walthamstows. They were
out gathering blackberries in the forest. At five o'clock
they set out for home. (ta the way they met
two lade, named John Mordaunt and George Mea-
dows, who had guns over their shoulders. Witness
asked them the way oat of the ((neat. Some coeveremion
ensued about shooting birds. Meadows threw up a dead
sparrow end find at it. Some other shots were fired in the
worse of a quarter of an hour. Theo Meadows presented
his gun or rifle at Holliday, one of witness's comrades, and
then, swinging on libellee, diecharged the weapon is another
direction. That made them timid, and they all walked
rapidly away. They heard caps being snapped behind them,
sad Meadows said, "Shoot them ; here goes." They
walked for some distance until they came to a bush where
they stopped to pick blackberries. Meadows came up, sad
"kneeling down like • regiment of rifirs preparing to resist
cavalry," fired into the bosh. The shot, however, was aimed
wide of witness. They Meadows fired other shots, Mot-
daunt looking on, blueing on his rifle. Meadows
then said that he would shoot witness's dog ; as " it would
be a fine hare." Witness pat the dog under his coat, and
threatened to prosecute Meadows for cruelty to animals.
Mordaunt loaded his gun with a quantity of shot saying,
" Here's a lot for Some of you." After some other proceed-
ings of the same kind deceased said to Mordeunt, " You have
no right to shoot here at all ; the police would take you ap if
they saw you and you should not go oo this way." Mordeunt
presented his piece at him and fired, saying, " I will shoot
you." Deceased fell. Mordaunt said who. he saw the
blood, " Oh, my gracious," and ran away, as did also
Meadows. Holliday ran after them. They came back
afterwards to give sesistsoce.
Coroner—Do you believe that Mordaunt intended to
injure your brother!
Witness—Yes sir. He seemed angry at what my brother
said, and he fired at him directly. The deceased was
carried to the Rising Sus, and the police arrested MordeuaL
Charles FL Holliday, 79, Shrubland.grove, Debtor', ap-
prentice to a jeweller, gave a similar account of the cir-
cumstances. When deceased said to Mordeunt. "You have
no right to shoot here at all," Mordaunt said, "Haven't I?
I will shoot you." Be levelled the gun at the
deceased's face, fired, and shot him. Deoeas•ci fell,
and Mordauut dropped his gun and ran away. Mordeunt
seemed provoked by the remark of the deceased boy. He
and Meadows bad previously mid that they would shoot
some of witness's party, and the latter had had to run away
am they began to shoot at them. There had been no quarrel.
Superinterdent Howie said that Mordeunt is at present
confined io Ilford Gaol. He was 15 or If: years old.
C. Eideforth, 13. George street, Hecknev, son of a watch-
maker, mid that ha was within • yard of deceased when he
was shot. Mordeont placed the muzzle of the gnu
within half • yard of deceased's face when be fired. He
took deliberate aim at deceased. Witness ran for • police-
man. There had been no previous quarrel, but Mordaunt
was provoked about not getting the dog to shoot. They said
they should gat it dead or alive.
By Mr. Maynard.—Witness did not see Mordaunt load his
gun before be fired.
After some further evidence,

The Coroner said that be would adjourn the ease for the
production of the boy Mordeunt.
Mr. Maynard said that he should reserve the defence,
but an explaoatioa would be given of the unfortunate
occurrent°, on the pert °oration that would show that it
was entirely • miaadveatura
The court was then adjourned.
