FURTHER PARTICULARS.

On Monday morning a cabman named Jonathan Mat-
thews was taken to the Harrow-street Station, whisro he
made the following communication :—" I live at No. 68,
Earl-street, Lisson-grove, and am a cabman. Last night,
and for the first time, I saw a placard in the Edgware-road
having reference to a murder committed on the North
London Railway. I communicated certain information to a
waterman named Amos."

The following is the communication made by the cabman
before Mr Henry, the chief magistrate at Bow-street, yes-
terday afternoon :
" I know Franz Muller. He is a native of Cologne. His
age, as he told me, is 25, and for some time past ho has 'been
employed as a shirt cutter in the firm of Hodgkireson,
hosiers, of Threadneedle•street, in the city. Seven or eight
months.ago he commenced to keep company with my sister,
and as her suitor he was in the habit of coming to my house.
1 remember one Sunday in October or November last he
came to my house and said to me, ' You have got a nice hat,
where did you get it from?' I told him I had bought it from
a man named Walker, a hatter, in Crawford-street. Muller
said,' Well, I should like to have one like it.' I said, Well,
try this on,' and he did so, but found it too tight for his head.
I then said, I know your size now, and I will get one for
you.' I did so, and the following Sunday he came and took
it away. Some time afterwards he came to my house again,
when I said,' How well that hat wears ; I have had three
hats since then.' I laid hold of the hat, and noticed on the
inside brim a peculiar thumbmark, caused by the hat being
put on and taken off by the hand at one particular spot.
The hat produced (the one found in the railway carriage)
is the same, and I could swear to it. Last Monday week
Muller visited my house and saw my wife. After paying
her the usual compliments he took a box oat of his pocket
and pulled out of it a gold chain, which ho said he had paid
£3 10s. for that morning. He then fixed the chain on a
watch and gave the box to my child to play with. [The box
was produced, and identified by Mr Death, who was pre-
sent, as the one which he had placed the chain in.] Muller
then exhibited a ring which he had on his finger, andwivell
was similar to the one described by Mr Death. Muller then. ,
began to complain, saying he had been very unfortunate
he had been down to the city, and a cart haying ;pasted
near his foot he had sprained his ankle.
I am going to Canada ; be sure you see Tonath.ano. (mean.
ing me), tell him not to go out to-morrow mertnsivia, until I
Fie then sai
mornings I waited for him, but he never came, and I have
come, for I particalarly want to see him.' For oor three
never seen him since. Yesterday I

The other evidence adduced went to show that Inspector
Steer gave this information at S co tlaud-yerd, and the Com-
missioners of Police immediately
instructed Superintendent
Tiddy and Inspector Steer to thoroughly investigate the
matter. These two officers at once went to No. 16, Park-
terrace, Old Ford, Bow, a house kept by a man named
myth, who said he was in bed on the night of the day the

ing h e had met with a severe injury in
the city and had
sprained his ankle. The lodger produced a pawn-tickete
which he said he hod bought of Muller. The tieln t related
to the geld chain Muller received from D.•ath, and
which Mull,: had pledged in a pawnshop in Bow.
Mr Adatree the American Minister, wee pres,,nt during
the whole of the examination, and at his request a copy of
the depositiocs was prepared to be forwarded to tne Home
Executive in America.
It further transpired in the examination that Muller
sailed from the London Docks on Thursday efiernoon last
in the sailing vessel Victoria, bound for New York.
Last night at 9 o'clock Mr Inspector Tanner, Mr Death,
and the cabman started from Euston-where for ea.verpool,
en route for New York by to-day's . mail. The
inspector was furnished with a warrant granted by Mr
Henry for the apprehension of Muller on the charge of
murder, and he also carried with him lettere at Mr Adams
