CHARGE OF MURDER.

THAMES POLICE•COURT.-(THISDAY.)

Timothy Murphy, aged 29, an Irish labourer,
was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with the wilful
murder of Thomas Sullivan, another Irishman, at No. 34,
Royal Mint-street, better known as Rosemary-lane, in the
immediate vicinity of the Royal Mint, on Saturday night.
This case originated in a drunken quarrel, and ter-
minated fatally. Both men were intoxicated on Saturday
evening, andiwere fighting, quarrelling, and abusing each
other. The prisoner afterwards went out, and declared, in
the hearing of several persona—" I will kill that to-
night." He went into the shop of Mr. Loans, at the
corner of Dock-street, Whitechapel, and asked for
some medicine. Mr. Loane, jun., who was in the
shop said he wanted no medicine and told him to go home.
He then uttered a threat, and said he had a knife, and
would use it and finish Sullivan. He also said in the
presence of a police-eonstable, No. 99 H, that he
intended mischief. He went home, and soon afterwards
there was a struggle in the passage of the house where the
parties lived, and when it terminated the denecteed ex-
chtio.ed, " I am stabbed," and fell, and when bis wife threw
herself upon him she discovered that her husband was dead.
He had been stabbed in the body, and the knife is supposed
to have penetrated his heart. The prisoner ran away directly
he had stabbed his countryman. Information was
promptly conveyed to the Leman-street station-house in
Whitechapel, and Inspector Dendy, of the H division, took
the most vigorous measures for his speedy apprehension,
which was effected the same night by John Fox, a police-
constable, No. 144 H. The prisoner managed to get rid
of the knife after he stabbed the deceased. The prisoner's
eyes were swollen and disooloured, and he said the in-
juries were inflicted by the deceased.
Dr. John Loane, of No. 1, Dock-street, Whitechapel,
said the deceased had been stabbed on the left side near
the heart, and that wound was the cause of death. There
would be a poet mortem examination this afternoon.
Dr. Loan's brother was examined as to the prisoner's
threats on Saturday night.
Mr. Partridge remanded the prisoner, who appeared
quite unconcerned.
Inspector Dendy said the prisoner was laughing and
whistling in his cell the whole of yesterday.
