committing him to Minato far trial.
When Muller made his appearance in the street to be con.

THE EXAMINATION AT BOW-
STREET.

It having become known that the prisoner, Frauz.
Moller, was to be taken to Hackney to be bought before the
Coroner at the adjourned inquest, at 8 o'clock this morning,
and would only be brought to the court at 11 o'clock, the
eager desire exhibited by the populace to obtain early pod.
session of places to witness his arrival in the police van had
somewhat abated, and the mob did not assemble so early or
in quite so large numbers in front of the court. Indeed,
until after 9 o'clock there was scarcely any noticeable gather.
tug in the street, and even so late se 10 o'clock, though the
multitude had beams considerable, it fell short of the
tremendous and overwhelming mass which swarmed and
crushed from end to end of Bowetreet on Monday
last. It would seem that the greater port!on of
the habitual attendants at such scenes had been
diverted by the counter attraction at Hackney,
while others, thinking there would be time enough at 11
o'clock, did not hurry to get here sooner. At half.put to,
when the van arrived conveying Muller from Hackney, be
was greeted, as before, by groans and cries of " There'd
Muller!" but those sounds were sot swelled by so many
voices as on the former occasion. By H o'clock, however,
the crowd had immensely augmented, and the new comers
manifested eoesiderstile chagrin at their disappointment.
At 11 o'clock Mr. Flowers took hie seat on the bench,
the ordinary cases having been disposed of as on the former
occasion by Mr. Vaughan, who sat for that purpose in the
hoard-room of the Strand Union next door but one to the
court.

Mr. Giffard, the counsel for the crown, and Mr. Beard,
the solicitor for the defence, were also in their ',Linea.
Mr. Flowers—Let the prisoner be placed at the bar.
Importer Tanner—The prisoner is here, but the wit.
names are not in attendance, having been detained at the
inquest at Hackney, to which they were summoned for
half-past 7 o'clock.
Mr. Flowers—ln what state are the proceedings therr :
Inspector Tanner—The jury were considering their ver-
dict when I left.

Mr. Flowers—lt seems to me to be a very incoureoleat
thing that the prisoner should be sent there the cri.e day
that; he wee remanded to for examination here.
Mr. Giffard—lt is very much so, sir.
Mr. Burnaby (the chief clerk)—There ii nothing to be
done but to wait.
At this moment one of the witnesses entered the court.
This fact having been intimated to the court by Inspec.
tor Tanner,
Mr. Flowers suggested that Mr. Giffard should proceed
with the examination of the one witness present, and pi 3-
bably others might arrive by the time the first had con.
eluded his evidence.

Here another witness, Mrs. Reppeoh, came in, and Mr.
Gifford observed that as he should have to recall her it
would be as well to do so at once.
Mn. Repach was accordingly recalled and sworn.
Mr. Giffard—ln your last examination you mentioned a
conversation you had with the primer about a new hat ;
will you state what this conversation us?
Mn. Ftepe:h—l noticed that be bad on a new hat. He
said his old hat had got mashed in a dusthole, and ha
also told me be had bed the new hat about two month,.
He told ray husband that he had given 14s. GI. for the new
hat, upon which my husband remarked that it "looked a
better hat than that," and added, " It looks like a gains
one." Nothing more was said about the hat to my recollec
lion. At the end of last year he brought a hat-box to my
house. I cannot say if it was in November or December.
He told us that Mr. Matthews had made him a present of
the bat. He showed me the hat, and I believe the one now
produced is the same. [The hat found in the railway ca.-
riage was shown to the witness.] I noticed the lining,
which was a striped oat—with wide brown and blue stripes,
and small black and white edge. I described it before. I
saw it at the polies-statioo. I had frequently seen it, and I
have noticed that he bad ► habit of putting his letter
under the lining. On the Monday morning before his de-
parture, when he showed me the chain and ring, he men.
timed that he had bought them while be was going to
march's* his passage ticket, and that he had only 2a. GI.
left after buying the chain. When I saw him on Saturday,
July 9, he bad a pair of dark trouaere on—to the beet of my
belief a green and black mixture. He had only had them
• very short time. He had on a plain morning coat, bat I
don't distinctly remember whether it was • cloth one. I
think it was. I have seen him in other cute, and I re-
member one with • velvet collar.

Cross-azarnined by Mr. Beard.—The concereation about
the new hat took Own on the Monday morning when he
produced the ehai•. I had seen him daily during the pre.
ceding week, bat can't swear to the trousers he tees
then wearing. I can swear to his trousers on the
Saturday, the 9th of July, but not on any other
day. I think they were dark. I first heard of the
outrage on Monday. I was aware that • large
reward was offered soon after. Nothing was said to ms
by the polioe till the Tuesday or Wednesday after Muller
bad left England. The boots he had on were nearly new,
but I don't think hia coat was new. I had not seen him
wearing a new coat for mouths. Be bad ties, but I did not
see it.

Ite.examined by Mr. Gifrard—l know that he had a new
coat, bemuse I heard him tell my husband so. I myrelf
work at the tailoring.
Mr. Beard—Was the lining torn u it now appears when
you saw it last in the prisoner's poswesion ?
Witmer—No, it has been torn sines.
Mr. Giffard—lt was not torn then. Bat was it the same
lining ?
Witnrs—Yes. I believe it is the same hat.

Godfrey Ferdinand Repot& was next called. He deposed—
lam the husband of the last witness. On Saturday evening
the 9tia July, I sew the •risoner at my house. He bad on
a morning coat and dark trousen —dark-brown or grey.
They ware any colour 1 cannot be certain every
colour. They were very old and had strips.; I
cannot exactly say what colour, but I think there
was brown in it. I remember his owning to me
on the 11th July—the Monday. He had on a new hat. I
said to him " You have got a new hat." My wife said he
was very extravagant in having another new hat. He said
he had had it about two months. Upon my inquiring
what he gave for it he replied, " Fourteen shillings and
sixpence." The conversation was not in German, but in
Euillah. I said the hat was worth a guinea.
Mr. Beard—lt was not your wife who said that
Witness—No, 11was I who said it.
Mr. Burnaby (the chief clerk)—lt is so in his evidence. I
took it down so.

Eximinatioe continued—Ho lad on light trousers and a
single-breasted coat that morning. He remained till 1
o'clock that day. I saw bin, every day till be veiled. After
the Saturday I Dever again saw him in the dark trousers
which he bad en that day.
Mr. Beard objected to the use of the word "dark," as the
witness had said the trousers were of "every or any colour."
Mr. Giffard—Did you ever see him in the same trousers
after that day ?

Wiliam—No, altar that I only saw him in light trousers.

Creis-saramined by Mr. Beard-,kbout two moths before
this I saw him with mote new boom and new clothes. Hie
light trounce were a kind of check, white end black mixed,
or grey. He used not to wear always the same trousers.
He may hare worn the same trousers again that he wore on
the Saturday, but I did not see them. As I was not always
with hiss I cannot my. When I noticed hi new hat I did
not look at the maker's same. I had it is my heed but
did sot notice the Haig. I did not Ws op the lining to
see if any name wee written in it.

itrazaudited by Mr. Gdfard—Os Youday he were light
tracers, sad as Tuesday, Wedamaday, and Thursday the
same,

At the request of Mr. Beard the wittier Jonathan
Matthews was recalled for further croereiamisatkm.

Mr. Beard—Have you been it court all Ude nennias ?
Matthews—No; I have only bees in abut eve rethinks.
I came in when I wan called. I cannot tell when I wee on
Saturday, July 9. I don't reoollect w►en I was that night.
nor whether I was at Edmonton that day. I have bees at
Norwich. I dame my it wan about 14 years ago. I think it
was sheet 1860.

Iltr. Bend—You emeght to know the exact data ; you have
owes to recollect It.

Wanes—Yin. I know I have.
lie. Bawd—l shall sot uk you anything wore.
