The Sun.
London, England, 1862-07-22 00:00:00

the afternoon of Saturday week, the day on which
the Volunteer Review took place, he was riding on
horseback along the Putney-road, accompanied by
his wife and child, and an elderly lady, who were
in a basket phaeton. At a short distance from the
entrance for carriages at Wimbledon-common, the
road was very narrow, and in consequence of the
numerous carriages there was a difficulty to get along.
The basket phaeton followed in the line of carriages,
which was formed to admit of the passing of return
carriages, on the other side of the road. Witness was
riding on the grass, on the off side, with a lady, who
was also on horseback, and his groom was behind,
riding and leading a horse for the use of Mrs-Metcalf.
As they were proceeding along the Duke of Suther-
land drove up with a four-horse drag rather rapidly,
and whether he overlooked the pony-phaeton or he
wished to pass it and take advantage of the weak
part of the line, he did not know, but he drove the
basket carriage off the road, and ran against it as he
passed. The wing of the phaeton was doubled up,
and the ladies were very much frightened Witness
seeing the danger of his wife, rode up and forced his
horse between the leaders of the drag and the carriage
in front of them for the purpose of protecting
.his
ladies. Some gentleman immediately came behind
him and seized his horse's head violently
ss an,s leg and
turned
it round. He also caught hold
endeavoured to throw him off his horse. He was
of wi
unable to accomplish it, and he (the
g en'
retreated The drag then moved on, and as it passed
lem.an) then
the Duke lashed him with his whip. uckily for
him and witness the whip did not cut his 1.1") but
only his hat. He followed up to the course and :Isk.ed
the gentleman who had endeavoured to throw 1`"a;
off his horse for his card, but he refused, and told

him to find out.
In cross-examination Mr. Metcalf denied charg-
ing the leaders of the drag with his horse, and alsott he touched their reins. As he forced his horse
between the leaders, they went partly round with
him. The gentleman who came up behind asked him
what he was about. He had no doubt his object was
to put his horse away to prevent further mischief.
At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Ingham sug-
gested that as Mr. Metcalf had not sustained any
injury, whether it would not be better to allow the
Duke to give an explanation.
Mr. Metcalf said that before the case was called
on, he offered to withdraw the proceedings on an
apology being made, but it was declined.
The Duke of Sutherland said that Mr. Metcalf
was on the off side, and not able to judge of distance.
He had witnesses who would give a very different
version of the story. He always trembled when he
saw ladies driving, and invariably pulled his horses
away so as not to alarm them. He was not within
a yard of the phaeton at the time.
The magistrate then left the bench to examie'e
the phaeton, and on his return the case proceeded.
Mrs. Darcey Irving, sister-in-law of Lady Dun-
gannon, and Mrs. Metcalf, who were in the pony
phaeton, and Mr. Metcalf's groom, were severally
examined as witnesses, and they corroborated the
complainant's statements. The ladies stated that
they were very much alarmed, and were nearly up-
set by the drag.
For the defence the Duke of St. Albans was
called, and said he was sitting on the box with the
Duke of Sutherland. There were two lines of car-
riages. They were in one line and the pony phaeton
was in the other. They were going at a slow pace,
when suddenly the complainant rode across and
stopped their leaders, nearly causing their carriage
to come to grief. The complainant took hold of the
reins of one of the horses and the leaders turned
round directly. If they had turned a little more
there would have been great danger. A gentleman
and the duke's coachman got down and took
hold of the complainant's horse, and desired
him to release his hold. The duke called to
him not to touch the leaders, and he touched
him with his whip. They were not driving at the
rate of seven or eight miles an hour. No part of
the drag came in contact with the pony phaeton.
Lord Alfred Paget said he was sitting behind his
grace. There were two lines of carriages. The
pony carriage was a little on the left—a yard and
a half or a good distance from them. The basket
carriage was in one line and they were in the other.
The horses were going a little out of a walk. The
carriages in their line were going at the same rate,
and the other line very slowly. He saw the com-
plainant suddenly ride across the leaders and take
hold of the reins and turn them to the left. He
was afraid the duke's carriage would be thrown on
to the pony phaeton. So gratuitous a thing he
never saw in his life. If the duke had not had the
wheelers firm in hand, the drag must have been
turned over on the other side. There was a regular
pull-up by everybody, and somebody jumped down
and caught hold of the leaders. A gentleman got
down and stopped the complainant. He saw the
complainant come towards the box of the coach,
and the duke's whip went up, but whether it was
to strike the wheelers or Mr. Metcalf he could not
state. He did not see the whip strike anything.
He did not believe the coach touched the pony car-
riage.
Joseph Rawlings, one of the duke's servants, gave
similar evidence.
Mr. Ingham again interposed, but
Mr. Metcalf asked for an adjournment to produce
other evidence to prove that the coach ran against
the phaeton. He pressed for an adjournment, in
consequence of the duke having called witnesses to
contradict his evidence.
The Duke of Sutherland said if he had frightened
the ladies, he was very sorry for it.
Mr. Metcalf was not satisfied with that apology.
He wanted an apology from the duke and the gen-
tleman for the assault upon him. He should indict
the gentleman, who had refused his name, at the
sessions.
Mr. Ingham thought the Duke of Sutherland
ought not to be made answerable for the conduct of
the gentleman.
The parties conferred together, but they were
unable to arrange matters.
Mr. Ingham said he was of opinion that the coach
did come in contact with the phaeton ; of that, the
ladies could not mistake. Being so, Mr. Metcalf
could not be found fault with ; but if the coach did
not strike the phaeton, he was not justified in
touching the horses.
After this expression of opinion of his worship,
another conference took place, but without any
success; and ultimately the summons was adjourned
for a week, for Mr. Metcalf to produce other wit-
nesses.

THE ASH 7 ON- UNDER• LYNE TRADE
OUI RAGE AND MURDER.

ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE, MONDAY

---
This morning, at the Town-hall, Ashton, Fredk.
Hipwell, Robert Ryan, Michael Burke, Thomas
Barlow, John Ward, John Toole, and John Clay
Johnson, were placed in the dock on remand,
charged with having murdered Police constable
Jump, on the 28th June last, while in the execu-
tion of his duty.
Mr. Cobbett, solicitor, appeared for the prosecu-
tion ; Mr. Torr, barrister for Barlow, Toole, Ward,
and Hipwell; and Mr. W. Roberts for the remain-
ing prisoners.
Mr. Cobbett said that Johnson, as the bench
must be aware, had made a statement touching the
murder, and since then Burke, Barlow, and Hipwell
had also made statements. These statements would
only be put in each case as evidence against those
who had made them. None of the men making the
statements would be put in the box, for these state-
ments were not full and complete enough to warrant
the prosecution in putting them in the witness-box.
At a future stage of the proceedings, and in another
place, it might be deemed advisable to place them
in the witness-box, however. The evidence against
Ryan and Toole could not be completed to-day, but
against the other prisoners it was complete enough
to warrant the bench in committing them for trial.

The depositions taken at previous examinations
having been read over,
Dr. S. D. Lees said he had made a further post-
mortem examination of the body of Jump, which
had been exhumed, and he had found the sEcond
ball. The two balls had taken a parallel course in
the body. This ball, found the last, differed from
the other, which had the shank of the mould cut off.
This had not. He found a mark upon the left side
of Ward's forehead, whieh had been deep at first,
and made by a cutting instrument.
Richard Pickering, superintendent of the Roch-
dale police, said—After Johnson was apprehended
he said he wished to make a statement about this
affair. He said he got up at six o'clock on the
morning of the 28th June, and found Ward stand-
ing at his door, and he took him into the cellar.
Burke came at 8 o'clock. Ward said there had been
a row at Ashton with the police, and that he eF:
petted one or two of them were dead. Burke said
that Jump was dead, and the other officer was
expected to live. Johnson afterwardd that

Cross-examinedTharke only speaks of one shot
being fired at Jump. I am sure I took down ex-
actly and faithfully what Burke told me.
Ward's house has been searchs'd, but no bullet-
mould has been found there, al though Burke
said one would. Johnson said he had drunk as
much as 20 glasses of rum per da.v for several
weeks. And after he had made the s tatement to
me I noticed that his hand trembled, as though he
were suffering from delirium tremens. He (John-
eon) also said that the police had been operating
upon him in the lock-up with chlorofot m, ether,
sso., which, of course, was a delusion. Busise told
roo that Ryan and Toole had nothing to do with
the murder.
mil he tell you the same thing about Barlow and
Heppe, -istall ?—I do not remember.
By th e prisoner Johnson—Did Burke tell yon I
s
had no 011 ng to do with the murder ?
Witn'se• —Yes, he said you had not.
Are yo u aware when I was in the big cell that I
asked to 1,,,e let out of it because there was such a
smell of su Iphur ?—I do not remember any such
application. I remember you asked to see the
superintendeLl. lam not aware that you asked to
have a telegraph message sent to Manchester for
Mr. Roberts aud ,Dr. Harrison; nor am I aware
that you had to walA up and down the room with
your handkerchief Caere your mouth to prevent
the sulphur issuing on t of some cupboards from
going down your throat,. I saw you put your hat
first against one ear and ti2en the other. I remem-
ber your being in a room with three policemen, but
I do not know that they were operating upon you
with any apparatus.
By the Bench—Some two hours .after Johnson
had made his statement he told me thai he was not
in a fit state of mind to make a further statement.
The prisoner Johnson—Are you aware that on
en,a occasion, when the police were charging me
witLti gas and electricity, that I broke the window
and ,sailled " Murder ?"
Wit -ness—l remember a window being broken,
but I know nothing about any policemen being
with yol. 1.
mr. coL%bett, in reply to the bench, said that John-
son was ch, arged with having harboured Burke and
Ward after . the murder had been committed, know-
ing them to L ,ave committed the same. He was not
charged with ba ing directly concerned in the murder.
Superintendesat Ludlam, after a witness had
proved some unies 'portant matters as to some foot,
marks, produced scn.. Ise bludgeons, three men's caps,
and a piece of paper, found where the murder was
committed. The pied. of paper is a portion of an
invoice for beer made on t against Burke, by a beer-
seller, named Knott. On the, 15th just, I saw
Barlow at the New Bailey Prison, Salford, and said.
to him, " I have been told Fchl wish to make a state-
ment about the murder at .3mallshaw." He said,
" Yes, I want to tell the truth about it." I then
warned him, and he made a ,statement similar to
that made by Ward, which is given above. Barlow,
however, added that, in the presence of him and
Johnson, Ward said that both he (Ward) surd
Burke shot Jump.
Cross-examined—Ward's wife never refused to
let the officers search the house. The caps have not
been traced as belonging to anyone, except Burke
said one belonged to Ward.
Sergeant Thomas Whiley deposed that Thomas
Hipwell had made a statement to him about the
murder, which was similar to the statements made
by the previous prisoners. The principal difference
from the other statements was that in Hipwell's he
makes mention of five pistols at Ward's on the night
of June 27. Ward had one of them, Burke one,,
Henser one or two, and, he believed, Ryan had one.
He also said that, as he was runninpway, when the
struggle commenced, he heard a shot fired, and then
two other shots followed. He did not know who
fired them.
John Watts, police-officer, deposed to appre-
hending Ward and Bur;se in Johnson's
house at Manchester. Ward save the name of
Knowles, and on taking him to the police-sta-
tion witness charged him with having been con-
cerned in the murder of Police-constable Jump. He
replied " Oh, is that it ?" Witness also charged
him with having been concerned in the attempt to
take the life, on the same day as Jump's was taken,
of Police-sergeant Harrop, when Ward replied,
" Oh, I can bring five or six witnesses to show I
was not there."
The case was at this stage of the proceedings
adjourned.
