THE E/EP-REES, TUESDAY EVENING,, SEPTEMBER 1

TEE STEPNEY MURDER

ADJOURNED INQUIRY —(TRIS DAY.)
This morning the jury empannelled to inquire
into the death of Mrs. Nary Emsley reassembled at the
Railway Tavern, Grove-rced, Yile.end. The promedinp
appeared to excite the liveliest interest, and the room was
Dot only inconveniently crowded, but a large number of
persons remained grouped round the door, notwithstanding
the unfavourable state of the weather.

The prisoner Mullein, who was attended by his solicitor,
Mr. Woad, was brought in a cab from the House of
Detention by :Superintendent Howie, of the K division,
and being recognised by the mob, was with some difficulty
preserved I.e the police from summary execution. It
required in fact the strenuous exertions of at least a dome
oaken to protect him from the delicate attentions of the
public.

Mr. W.mtner attended to watch the case on behalf of the
Crown.

Th. court was formally opened at half-peat 10.
Mr. Joseph Bigp (recalled) identified two lenses, which
Mrs. Em sley had shown him. flail no doubt whatever that
the looms were the same that had been shown him.

Elizabeth George, the charwoman who red to work for
the deceased (recalled)—laid that for some time before her
death the deceased had disused silver teaspoons. She
used three of common metal like those produced. She used
iron table spoor, but she had one silver spoon which was
latterly locked up. The petreer was the man in the house
at the time ou the Saturday when a person called to look at
the paper.
By Mr. Wood—lt was the Saturday before the deceased's
death, that is, at Saturday. the 11th August. Heard
the deceased talk to Iftn:lens about whitewashing some
kitchens. This was shout 6in the evening. Gave him his
mousy about 7 o'clock. He had not earned much that
week.

Dr. 0. L. Gill (recalled) raid the Lacerated wound in the
de,eaved's ear and left eyebrow might have been inflicted
by the plasterer's hammer produced. The length of the
around on the eyel.row corresponded with the length of the
hamnier blade. The contused wounds at the back of the
head might have been °omelet:nal by the butt end of the
hammer.

Waiter Thomas Emma (rectfled)—On Saturday week I
d.. 1 not rise till hahf•past nine in the morning, not Wag welL
I .lid not go beyond my door till half•past ten, but I did not
then go off the premises. I did not go out till the
evening. The nest morning I went out into the
field between nine and ten. I saw a man I
know named Mackie, and while I was talking
to him the three officers came up. Sergeant Thome.
brought a paper parcel, and naked me what en.
in it told him I did not know. It was opened, and
then I hazan to be alarmed. Ho did not tell me where he
got it ; bat be had nothing in his hand a minute before.
I had Dever till then ma the parcel or its content& I will
swear it. When it Male from and bow it got iato the shed
I don't know.

By Mr. Wood—l got alarmed when Mr. Thorns. said
" Here's one of the old lady's grates." I believed that the
hit of tape in question belonged to a big in which she used
to keep bee money. I have had a great many business
transactions with Mrs. Emsley. I did not owe her ant,
thing. I was not paying her off a debt on a building con-
tract by the week. I was paying her off by the year. I
don't consider that I sh.-. 11 be in debt till the time when the
next instalment fails doe.
_ . .

~ly the Coroner—l still
think the tape produced is the
tape that belouged to the elecesael's money-bag. I know
Mollens. I have never seen him since the death of the de-
eeesed in the hricktleld, except no the Sunday morning
when the pureel was found. He was then with the officers.
Simenneh F.mms, (daughter of the last witness)—leult
Illegnmiar week I was at home at my father's house. My
father was unwell, and I took him his breakfast into his
hedroont, it was shout a quarter to 9. He did not go out
till abut an hour after he got up. I will swear that. I
know Mullen.. I did not see him in the hrickgeld,

it is broken and will not shut. I did not go
into the shot ut all on the day I mw Mulls= in the field,
until five or sit in the afternoon, and then I went to the
copper. Th. shed is at the side of our house. It has only

On Saturday there were eight workmen there. Ther h.ivn

where the parcel was found. The ruined shed
is when Mullen. said I hail brought the puce! tram.
The room was then clewed, aryl, after about half an hour's
c-nsultation, . .

The Coroner announcer! that the jury were of opinion—en
opinion in which he entirely c..ncurrell--that it weal., be
adriealile for the ends of justice once more to adjourn the
iniintry.
The court therefore wljonrned till the 16th of October.

As early as tea o'clock this morning a vast num-
ber of permos of bath sexes assembled near the Thames
polies-court for the purpose of obtaining admimion to
bear the investigation of the charge of murder pre-
ferred against two men named Emma and Mulieu.
At 11 o'clock Arbar•street east, opposite the court, was
thronged, hut admittance W lila denied to every one except
those upon actual lupines. cod the police engaged in the
various night charges. The crowd was increasing when our
reporter devatchod his reemenger. The adjourned inveeti•
gatiim will commence at two o'clock this afternoon, when
Emm., wl, , is out upon hail, and Mullena, will he arrai„mol
on the charge of wilfully murdering Mary Eruvley. There
is a general belief in the innocence of Emma, who is a
•• fy respectable and inoffensive man, and has for many
yowl maintained an irreproachable character.

Even increased dulness prevails to-day in the
Stock Exchange. Business is quite stagnant. The
effect is rather prejudicial to the funds, which have
declined 1-18 to It per cent. In the other depart-
ments of the Stock Exchange, however, prices are
fairly supported.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at
67fr. 90c., being bc. lower than yesterday.
Consols are officially marked 93, I, and both
for money and the account. The present
quotations are 93 to e for cash, and 93e to for
the 11th October. The official business report is
as follows ;—Five per Cent. " enfaoed" rupee
paper, 96 ; ditto Five-and-a-Half per Cent., 102 e,
102 ; Indian Bonds, Os. die. ; Exchequer Bills,
la, to 4a. prem.

Scarcely any business has been done in the foreign
stock market. Yesterday's rise iu Mexican Bonds is
not fully supported ; transactions are recorded at 21i
to 22. The Turkish Loan of 1868 is fist at
57 to }, whilst that of 1854 is quoted 73} to
7t Sales are recorded as follows :—Mexi-
can Three per Cents., for account, 21i,
22 ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1853, for ac-
count, 431 ; Spanish Three per Cents., for account,
481 ; the Committee's Certificates, si; Turkish
Six per Cents., 1858, for account, 57i.
At Vienna on Saturday a fresh fall of 1 per cent.
took place in the Metallice.

There was no new feature in the discount market
yesterday. The supply of money was ample, and
• fair demand was experienced at 31 to 32 pur
cent. for good bills. Very few applications were
made to the Bank.

About 72,0001. in gold, part of which is under-
stood to be Australian and the rest refined, was
sent into the Bank yesterday, and a further sum will
probably follow, the demand for exportation being
still limited. Only about 40,000!. is known to
have been taken for the Continent The 43,500/.
by the Shannon will be refined, and may then he
sold to the Bank, as well as a portion of the sup-
plies from America.
The shipments of silver for China by the steamer
of the 20th inst. are expected to show a consider-
able falling off, owing to the announcement by the
present mail of the arrival out of the 282,000:. in
specie by the Malabar, in addition to that by the
mail steamer. Some exporters also prefer to await
the arrival here of the lame amount of Mexican
dollars which is expected about the end of the
month.

The light portion of the mail from Bombay will
be distributed iu London to-morrow morning.
An instalment of 8 per cent. fell due yesterday on
the Canada loan of 2,800,0001., and of 10 per cent.
on the Russian loan of June last, but the bulk of
the sum required had been paid in advance.
A circular has been issued to the creditors of
Messrs. Walter, Howell, and Co., distillers, of
Bermondsey, convening a meeting for to-mor-
row. For some time past attempts to effect an
arrangement have been in progress, but apparently
without effect. There have been considerable losses
upon trading, chiefly in gin. The liabilities are
about 400001. and the assets show 6s. &I. in the
pound. We understand that there have been no
dealings in accommodation paper.
A meeting was held yesterday of the creditors of
Mr. C. Underwood, wholesale grocer, of Covent-
garden and other places. His liabilities amount to
8,000/., while his assets do not show more than Us.
or 6s. in the pound. It was determined to place
the estate in the Court of Bankruptcy.
Telegrams from St. Petersburg announce that
the shipments of tallow had reached 86,000 casks,
and there were 30,000 on the wharf. The price
was firm, at 49 ro. The exchange on London was
quoted 36d. to 364 d.
A telegram from Marseilles announces that the
telegraphic cable on board the steamer William
Cory was cut near Toulon on the 15th, during a
heavy gale, but that it was expected to be reco-
vered. This cable was intended for submersion
between Marseilles and Algeria.
The Agents General for the Crown Colonies
notify that they have been anthoriaed by the
government of the Cape of Good Hope to receive
tenders until the Bth October for Six per Cent.
Debentures to the amount of 200,0001. ; 100,0001.
is to be redeemed at the expiration of twenty years
from the date of issue, and the remaining 100,0001.
at the expiration of thirty years from the same
date. The debentures are for sums of 1001. each.
Principal and interest are payable in London.
The State of Ohio invites proposals, receivable
at New York until the 20th November, for the pur-
chase of 6,400,000 dolts. (1,280,0001.) of the trans-
ferable certificates of the funded and registered
debt. The rate of interest will be either bor 6 per
cent, according to the date of maturity of the cer-
tificates desired. The principal and interest will
be payable at New York.
A meeting of the shareholders of the General
Discount Company (Limited) has been called for
to-morrow, to consider the recommendation of
committeea of shareholders to wind up volun-
tarily, and it is understood that it is con-
templated to appoint three liquidators. In all
cases of voluntary winding up much depends upon
the choice of liquidators. One, at least, should be
independent of all parties. In several cases of a
liquidation not independent of party influence
shareholders have sought in vain for information as
to how their money has been lost.
The Brighton Railway traftic return show, this
week an increase of 1,5671., and the South Eastern

The traffic return of the Great Western Railway

The past week shows no improvement in the passenger
tratac. This is no doubt 01/blg to the engagement of the
people in securing and preparing their crops. September
will probably show conch better. The rates of late freights
are also tending to depress prices at the ports, and to keep
the produce back. The crops are made, however, and must
go to market, and if not in excess during this and the
Dent two months, will go forward more gradually, and
more to the convenience of, at lees cost to, the company.
