THAMES.

ROBBERY IN THE ST. KATHERINE DOCK,. George
Teasdale, a cooper, aged 24, was Ix ought before Mr Part-
ridge charged with stealing 3 bottles of sulphate of quinine,
value 3l s, some brandy, tea, and other articles in the St,
Katherine Dock.
Mr J. P. Mumford, superintendent of the It. Catherine
Dock Company's police, said he went yestErday to the ex••
port shed on the A jetty and sent for the prisoner. Mr
Hunter, superintending foreman, was present. There had
been two cases plundered in the shed. One contained
brandy, the other quinine. The prisoner was accused of
being in the shed by himself, and must know something
about the plunder that was going on. The prisoner re-
plied, I know nothing at all about it. He told the prisoner
he must search his house, and proceeded with him to his
lodgings, No. 13, Oxford-street, Whitechapel, near the
hack of the London Hospital. In a room which the
prisoner said was occupied by him he found in a cupboard
two bottles, eaoh containing an ounce of quinine, and
valued at 10s, each. They were exactly similar to a bottle
of quinine found in the export shed, and to other bottles of
quinine in a case that had been plundered. He said to the
prisoner—More than these have been taken out of the shed,
To which he replied—There are two here and one in the
shed, that is all I took out of the case. He found several
other articles, the result of pilfering, in the prisoner's room,
including two sample bottles containing brandy, two parcels
of tea wrapped up in sample papers, and 25 cigars, which
he believed to be foreign, and some leaf tobacco.
The Prisoner—Did I not say the two bottles of brandy
were given to me by a gentleman named Harding?
Mr Mumford—yes, you did.

Walter Lurcher, a labourer in the service• of the St.
Katharine Dock Company, said the prisoner had been en-
gaged in the export shed coopering the casts that were
plundered. He found a bottle of quinine in the shed after
the prisoner left it and two cases broken open. He gave
information to Mr Mumford.

Mr Partridge asked the Superintendent for information
about the prisoner, and Mr Mnmford replied that the pri-
soner had been fa the Dock Company's service three or
four years, and had been recommended for promotion as
foreman cooper. The prisoner was in comfortable circum-
stances, and had a bank book with an account of his sav-
ings. The prisoner's father had lately met with a severe
accident, and was in the hospital at Croydon.
Mr Partridge—l will remand the prisoner for one week,
to make further inquiries about him,

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to our market
to-day were very moderate, consequently the stands were
scantily supplied with samples. The trade, however, was
in a sluggish state, and although prices were without quo-
table change from Monday, their tendency was decidedly
in favour of buyers.

The supply 4 foreign wheat on offer was tut moderate.
Sales, however, progressed slowly in all descriptions, yet
prices ruled stationary.

Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, at late
rates.

The supply of barley on the stands was very moderate.
On the whole the trade was steady, and prices ruled firm.
Malt was in slow request, at late rates.
With oats the market was moderately supplied. Most
descriptions were in fair request, at full prices.
Beans and peas ruled firm, and previous quotations were
supported.

Flour changed hands to a moderate extent, at late
rates.

BOROUGH HOP.

The accounts at hand from the plantations this morning
are favourable. The demand both for English and foreign
hops rules inactive, and whilst good and fine qualities sup-
port previous rates, the value of inferior produce has a
downward tendency.
