THE CASE OF MURDER AND PIRACY ON THE

-11-1041

On being cross-examined yesterday, Tallir, the
second mate, said—The new originally appointed of 19
men. lan not aware of any misconduct on the part of the
men prior to the beating of Carlos. Carla did not appear
to go in far. Lyons was generally spokesman ; the others
were sometimes present, not always I can't say which of
the prisoners appeared to be the leader.
At this period of the proceedings it was disoovened that
the Auatraan did not speak Gamma, bat riclavosso ; and it
was thereforejlirranged that the 'videos* should he brans.
Lied to him in Sclavonio based of Gamin.
Mr. Henry thought it advisable that a translation should
be mate in Spanish also.
The deposition of Tab was then read over by the chief
clerk, Mr. Burnaby, and translated into Spanish and &M-
-yopic by Mr. Rosenberg, and into Greeit by Mr. Paakie-
witch. This process was very lengthy, and occupied the
court for a period of nearly two hours.
Mr. Henry desired :the interpreter to explain to the
Spaniards, that intimation having been very properly made
by the Treasury to the Spanish Consul, in case be shroud
think it desirable to take dope fa their d 'fence, and a Mr.
Beard having been appointed by the Spanish consul to defend
them, then was no oixesioe for them to put asy questions to
the witness, Mr. Beard having in fact done so already for them.
This having been done, Mr. Henry then desired the in•
terrain to explain to the Sclavonian, Radaelr, that a similar
oxanunication had been made to the Austrian govern.
meat, but no solicitor attended for him. If therefore he bad
an question to put to the witness he was at liberty to do so.
Bedeck had no questions to put.
A similar intimation was made through Mr. Peekiewitch to
the Greeks, Carlos and Wetter. They declared they were
sot Greek subieets—Carlaiwas a native of Cephalonia, sad
Water was a native of Marmon, and consequently a
Turkish subject.
Mr. Henry said the Creek and Turkish consuls had better
be informed that subjects of thaw countries were under
examination here.

Early being recalled corroborated TaSr's statement u to
the sharing of the money. Witness had a share. It was
41. each amongst 17. and there was some over. Did not
know what was done with that. Wilmss took a share, 4(.
Mr. Welsby— You were not very fortunate with yours, I
holier*.

The witness mid he we. not, but he believed the reel were
nearly all the same. About it. 10a. out of his was good
mosey ; the rest was bad money or medals. He also nave an
aooount of the murder of the steward, agreeing with the
statement of Taffir. The persons in the boat were the
steward, the second mate, the cook, Frank Paul, Yucca,
Wetter, mid witness. It was Lyoos and Nauritaa who pelted
the steward with bottles. They were full bottles of chain-
papa The steward jumped into the sea, and Lyons said
it was too easy a death for him. Witness saw him for a
little while, but be we. woo out of sight. The boat was
fastened alongside, and Lyons ordered him into the boat to
else, the bottles. He did not go aboard any more, but stopped
in the boat. Never saw the caption's brother or chief
mate. Blanco said the mate was singing out when thrown
overboard.

The whole of &Ay's andante on this and the former day
wee thee translated to the prisoners in the three languages.
The prisenent were then reminded.

THE FATAL ACCIDENT AT WOOLWICH
DOCKYARD. .

After our report left yesterday,
Other witnesses gave evidence of a corroborative nature,
proving that when the boiler had been lifted out of the Tw-
irl, and, was about one foot shove the held, the guy-chain
of the shears suddenly snapped, carrying with it lb. whole
of the heavy gear which became twisted and broken, and
fell acmes the deck of the Spiteful, striking the unfortunate
MN, who were at the moment engaged in stewilying the
boiler with baedspikes as it rcee out of the hold. The
boiler in its fall crushed and killed Healey and injured
others. _ _ _

In reply to the Corneae, the relatives of the doomed,
who wen present, stated that they had so questions to ask
of either of the witnesses. _ _ _

TheCoroner,aftar recapitulating theevidenco, observed that
the main question for the jury to consider was whether the
machinery and gear timed for the removal of the boiler from
the ship was in a proper csooditim, and if otherwise, whe-
ther any person wee responsible for the defect. The eel-
deuce wait to show that the machinery had been carefully
inspected, and that there was no sign of the least flaw or
defect, and certainly in a government dockyard inferior or
defective machinery would not be used for the purpose of
saving expense Altar some further remarks from the
coroner,
The jury returned a verdict " That the dammed men lost
their lives from injuries received by the accidental breaking
of RD iron chain back•guy whilst employed is removing a
boiler from her Majesty's gem vessel Spitefel."
