CRIMINAL COURT—Feb. 3.

(Before Mr. Baron Martin.)
ALLEGED SCUTTLING OF A SHIP.
This morning the trial of Mr. White and Mr. Sutton was
resumed.

Some witnesses were examined, amongst them being Mr
William White, the owner of the Snowdrop, a brother of
the prisoner, whose only important statement was that he
did not feel extraordinary anxiety when he heard the vessel
was destroyed.

Mr. Glover, the ex-Mayor of Shields ; Mr. Peacock, the
present Mayor of Shields ; the Rev. Mr. M'Clennan, and
other gentlemen, gave the prisoners a good character.
Mr. Baron Martin summed up at great length, and the
jury retired at 26 minutes to one.
After an absence of about a quarter of an hour the jury
returned into court with a verdict of not guilty.
The verdict in the estimation of everybody in the court
appeared to be a just one, and there was great applause
when the foreman announced the decision to which he and
his fellows had arrived.

The prisoner White (then of course no longer a prisoner)
bowed respectfully to the Judge and jury. Mr. Sutton said
—" It is a righteous and true judgment, and I thank the
Judge and the jury."
Both the prisoners then retired with a host of friends,
who were anxiously awaiting their fate.
