STEALING COFFEE IN THE ST. KATHERINE DOCK.—Thos
Hunt, a labourer, who appeared to be in very good condi-
tion, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing
191 b. of raw coffee, the property of the London and St.
Katherine Dock Company. _ . _

Thomas Foreland, a dock constable, stated that the pri-
soner was leaving the St. Katherine-dock at the Nightin-
gale-lane gateway this morning, and he thought he was
more bulky than he ought to be. He stopped the prisoner
and searched him, and found coffee secreted about his legs,
arms, and body—in fact, the prisoner was coffee all over,
and the concealment was very artfully arranged. The
witness then produced a bag containing 191 b. of clean
coffee, and, in answer to questions by the magistrate, said
that the prisoner told him he found the coffee on the deck
of a ship. He believed that the coffee came out of one of
the warehouses in the dock.

Mr. J. P. Mumford, superintendent of the Dock Company's
own police, said that IGlbs. of coffee were found concealed
on another man as he was leaving the Dock on Monday,
and he was convicted of the offence.

The prisoner said he was starving, and had a wife and
family to maintain. He was in want of bread, and his
children were in a sad condition.

Mr. Paget believed the prisoner was a regular thief.
He convicted him of the unlawful possession of the coffee,
and sentenced him to one month's imprisonment and hard
labour.

SUSPECTED CHILD MURDER.--Thomas Aldridge, about
27 years of age, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged
with unlawfully aiding and abetting in the concealment of
the birth of a male child, suspected to have been murdered
by its mother, Mary Palmer, alias Gillings, late servant at
the house of Mr. Watts, the White Swan Tavern, at the
corner of the Commercial-road and White Horse-street,
near the Stepney railway station.

It appeared from the statement of Chandler, a police
constable, 117 H, that the body of a male child was found
in the house, 19, White Bear-court, Leman-street, White-
chapel. It was left there in the form of a parcel, and wrapt
in paper. Chandler discovered that a woman—Mary Palmer,
alias Gillings, who had been for a long time servant at the
White Swan—had given birth to the child. She is a single
woman. A medical gentleman named Budgett was of
opinion the child was suffocated. Palmer was arrested on
Tuesday night,and is under police surveillance at the work-
house in Ratcliff. The prisoner was manager at the White
Swan. He called upon a woman named Elizabeth Chap-
man yesterday morning, and requested her to fetch some
dirty linen from the White Swan. He pOintod out the
linen to her. The things were in water and in a pail and
a foot pan. The water was discoloured with blood. He
said Mary had given birth to a baby, and he was very much
upset. Mrs. Chapman took the clothes away.
In answer to Mr. Charles Young, the witness said the
prisoner observed to her " A very shocking affair has hap-
pened since Mary was speaking to you last night."
The prisoner was remanded for a week.

HULL-TUESDAY.

Since our last there has been a fair demand for wheat at
an advance of 2s to 8s per qr. over the prices of the pro"
vious week. This advance is partially owing to the largo
quantity of rain which has fallen in the district ; the har-
vest being thereby much interrupted, although at present
no material damage appears to have been done. At our
market to-day there was a good show of English wheat
which sold at an advance of is to 2s per qr. The demand
was not, however, brisk.
English old white wheat, 48s to 50s; old red, 44s to 465.
Barley, chevalier, 28s to 325. Oats, Russian, 22s to 245.

TAFF VALE.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Bristol on Tuesday, Mr. J. Poole in the
chair. The report, which has appeared in The
Sun, was taken as read.

The CLIAIR3LUI, in moving the adoption of the

report, said they had maintained the former divi-
dend, and had avoided accidents, which had been
so disastrous, and which they all so much lamented.
The inclined plane on their line was in course of
reduction, and would soon be opened as a locomo-
tive line, exempting the freighter from the oppres-
sive charges he had to pay for the conveyance of
goods he carried over it. They were laying down
additional lines of rails, anticipating a large increase
of their traffic, so that when it arrived they might
be in a position to receive it. One of their railway
bridges, which was constructed of timber, and
attended with large expense, and perhaps some dan-
ger, was now being replaced by a stone bridge,
which would reduce the expense and make their line
much more desirable. The Penrath docks had been
successfully opened, and when the details were com-
pleted would prove a great addition to their pro-
perty. He moved a resolution, adopting the report,
and declaring a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent.
per annum, which was carried.

A resolution, authorising the raising of £120,000
by the creation of new shares, was agreed to.
The retiring electors were re-elected, and the
meeting was then made special to consider a work-
ing agreement with the Dare Valley Railway Com-
pany, which was approved and adopted, and the
proceedings terminated.

NEWCAS TLE-ON-T YNE.—TITESDAY.
Since Saturday last the weather has been very unsettled
and a good deal of rain has fallen. It looks a little better,
but people are getting very anxious about the harvest pros-
pects in our district. Notwithstanding the state of the
weather, all things considered, a great quantity of grain
has been cut in excellent condition. In the valley of the
Tyne the wheat crop is fully an average. At our market
this morning a good supply of wheat, at an advance of 2$
for English and is to 2s for foreign. Barley and oats rather
dearer ; fine malt is higher ; beans and peas firm ;
flour 1$
to 2s dearer.

STATE OF TRADE

.CARDIFF, Aug. 22.—The prevalence of unfavourable
weather has slightly checked trade at the docks, but within
the last day or two things are beginning to right them-
selves again. The stem has not been an open one for some
weeks, whioh shows that business upon the whole is pretty
active. The ironworks of Merthyr and Aberdare are well
employed, and there is no scarcity of Orders experienced.
Puddled iron is still unusually firm, and it will take a few
weeks regular working before stocks are completelyreple-
nished, the same having been materially reduced owing to
the effect of the late hot season. Rails aro in good demand,
and American specifications are gradually incraasing in
number and quantity. Quotations average from £7 to £7
10s. per ton at the works. Bars and other descriptions also
command a full average inquiry. Continental buyers of
steam coal are purchasing considerably, and merchants re-
port that there is a pretty good demand. The Birkenhead
and London markets continue to take increased quantities.
Prices are fairly maintained. The Lantwit and Rhondda
Valley house-coal collieries are not in many instances on
full time, owing to the falling off in the local and inland
sale. The other branches of trade are in about the same
state as last week.

LEICESTER, 23d.—There is a seasonable amount of
business doing in hosiery. Plain goods are in request, and
there is a fair demand for fancy articles. Manufacturers
continue to be well engaged with orders on hand, nothing
being made for stock. In the country districts business re-
mains healthy. Worsted yarns are firm and high in price,
and spinners are well employed. Cotton yarns are also
dear. There is a shade more inquiry for wools, and high
prices are quoted.
NOTTINGHAM, 23d.—The lace trade remains, nn the whole,
quiet, and there has not been much doing in any branch
during the past few days, except, perhaps, in black silk
laces, for which there is yet a fair demand. The silk mech-
lin trade is still quiet, and there is nothing doing in quil-
liege. The cotton lace trade is flat. Vely little is doing
in either plain or fancy goods. The hosiery trade con-
tinues buoyant. There is a full average amount of busi-
ness doing in most branches, and the workpeople continue
well and fully employed. Manufacturers have orders on
hand, ani no stocks whatever are created.

A MAN BLINDED BY SULPHURIC ACID.—A
fiendish assault was perpetrated by a wife upon her hus-
band at Hebburn a few days ago. Margaret Surgen and
her husband had been living unhappily together for some
weeks. The latter had been unmanly enough to beat his
spouse, but she retaliated in a fearful manner by throwing
sulphuric acid in his face, which completely burnt out one
eye, and so injured the other as to render it probable that
he will be e tirely blind.—Sunderland Herald.

BRISTOL AND PORTISHEAD.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
on Tuesday at Bristol, Mr. J. Ford in the chair.
The report stated that the works were making
steady progress, and that the road from the junction
at Bedminster to the termini at Portishead would be
ready to receive the permanent way before the next
meeting.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said the calls had been rapid in unison with
the progress of the works, but the result had proved
that they had not been too rapid for their funds, for
they had been paid punctually. The line when com-
pleted would be one of the cheapest in the kingdom.
The report was adopted, and the directors were
authorised to borrow such sums of money as might
be required from time to time, in accordance with
the provisions of the Act of Incorporation.

A vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the
proceedings.

CRYSTAL PALACE AND SOUTH LONDON
JUNCTION.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the Victoria station, Pimlico Sir C.
P. Roney in the chair.

The report, an abstract of which has appeared in
the Sun, was taken as read.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, said that
the line was opened for traffic to the high level
station at the Crystal Palace on the Ist of the
present month. The line was, however, opened in
a very incomplete state, as there were several
stations not yet sufficiently advanced to be avail-
able. Those stations were, however, rapidly ad-
vancing towards completion, and no delay would
take place in opening them for public traffic. In
addition to that, there would be an easy means of
access to and from the City, which would be still
more valuable when the connecting link of the
London, Chatham, and Dover Company with the
Metropolitan,
and consequently with the Great
Western, Great Northern, and other railways on
the north side of th

terminus and the Crystal
say that the traffic at the present time
he

ingly satisfactory. During the first wasweek
was opened they carried between 4,000 and 5,000
passengers ; in the second week they increased to
nearly 10,000, and in the third week nearly 20,000
were carried. When the proper number of trains
were running over the line and the intermediate
stations were opened they would have, instead of
19 trains a day, at least double that number, and a
very large amount of traffic.
Sir C. H. Ric', the deputy-chairman, seconded
the motion for the adoption of the report, which
was carried unanimously ; and a vote of thanks to
the chairman and directors closed the proceedings.

SANITARY CONDITION OF THE CITY.

Dr. LETHEBY reported on the state of 226 houses
that had been inspected during the past week, and
he submitted a list of 47 places which required sani-
tary improvement in various particulars. He also
submitted a list of 22 places requiring further pro-
ceedings on account of orders already issued, but not
yet complied with. He also submitted a certificate
of the indecent and unwholesome crowding of the
house No. 18, Fetter-lane, and recommended that
the usual proceedings should be taken to have the
house registered as a common lodging-house.
Fifty-three births and 45 deaths were registered
during the week. The mortality returns were less
than the average (48) for the corresponding period
of the last ten years. Twenty-one, or nearly half
of all the deaths, were among childre n of less than
five years of age, and five only were among persons
of GO and upwards. The chief causes of death
were as follows :—Phthisis 4, hydrocephalus 6,
pneumonia 3, bronchitis 3, continued fever 5, scarlet
fever 5, measles 5, and erysipelas 1.
From an account laid before the Court by the
principal clerk,
hands of the Chamberlain, on Thursday last, on
it appeared that the balance in the
the Sewers rate,'was £10,061 2s. 11d., and that the
sum overdrawn on the Consolidated rate was
£5,219 11s., and on the Metropolis Main Drainage
rate £1,499 14s, Old.
.After disposing of some routine business the com-
missioners adjourned.

A communication signed "Arthur Helps," -and
addressed from the Council Office, Whitehall, was
laid before the Court, in which was inclosed a copy
of the circular which has been issued by the Veteri-
nary department of the Council to the inspectors
appointed for the city of London, and the metropo-
litan police districts, relative to the disinfection and
disposal of the carcasses of diseased animals.
Dr. LETIIEBY reported that the markets and
slaughter-houses in the City had been duly inspected
during the past week, and the officers had condemned
5,3711b5. of meat as unfit for human food. ft con-
sisted of 8 sheep, 8 pigs, and 39 quarters of beef.
He also reported that the hides were not removed
from the slaughter-houses at Nos. 53, 56, and 66,
Aldgate, until after the time appointed in the regu-
lations, and as much inconvenience arose from it he
recommended that crders should be given for the
necessary proceedings before the justices. He like-
wise reported that the hides were not removed from
Leadenhall-market until nearly 8 o'clock in the
evening, the appointed time being 5 o'clock, and as
the de]ay was caused by the improper practice of
salting the hides in the market, and causing the
ground to be saturated with a large amount of saline
and animal matter, and as it also interfered with the
work of the scavengers, who were unable to begin
the cleansing of the market at a proper time, he re-
commended that notice should be given to the Mar-
kets Committee of the fact, that the regulations with
respect to the removal of hides were not observed.
The suggestion of the medical officer was agreed to.

the cleansing of the market at a proper time, he re-
commended that notice should be given to the Mar-
kets Committee of the fact, that the regulations with
respect to the removal of hides were not observed.
The suggestion of the medical officer was agreed to.

LATEST PARTICULARS.

The excitement caused by the explosion continued
the whole of the morning, the number of persons
arriving to witness the ravages of the accident being
very great. The officials connected with the com-
pany appear quite at a loss to account for the ex-
plosion, so whether it was caused by over-filling,
or the sudden shutting-off the gas from the large
main, thereby producing a heavy back pressure,
remains to be discovered at the official inquiry
which will be made into the circumstances connected
with the accident.
On making inquiry at St. Thomas's Hospital this
morning our reporter was informed that the list of
fatalities, which late last evening was known to
extend to nine unfortunate persons, had not been
increased, and that all those who were admitted to
the hospital were going on favourably.
The names of those killed are as follows :
S. Smith—This poor fellow's case was considered
hopeless at the time of his admission into St.
Thomas's Hospital, a piece of slate having been
driven edgeways through the skull into the brain.
A. Shea, both legs fractured—This poor fellow
gradually sank after his admission into the hospital,
and expired about seven o'clock.
Edward Burke, 4, Union-court, Chelsea.
O'Donnell, residence not known.
F. Thomsett, 26, St. George's-road, Battersea.
Fielder, residence not known.

W. Carter, ditto.
J. Dewrie, 5, Turrett-court, Chelsea, plasterer's
apprentice.
Also a lad, name unknown, apparently about 18
years of 'age.
London, England, 1865-11-01

youths, who are now studying navigation on board,
for the purpose of obtaining appointments as officers
in the mercantile navy. The reformatory ships
.&kbar and Clarence, and the training ship Indefati-

THE WIDENING OF MANSION-HOUSE-STREET.

A letter was read from Mr. W. 0. Beville, the
secretary of the Union Bank, in reference to the
question of widening Mansion-house-street on the
north side, and in reply to a communication ad -
dressed to the directors of the bank, on behalf of the
Commission, asking them to postpone proceeding with
the frontage of their building now in course of
erection. It was stated that a similiar request was
made to the directors by the Commission on the
25th of July, 1863, pending a negotiation for the
same object between them and the Metropolitan
Board of Works, and the directors having subse-
quently had communicated to them officially a re-
solution passed by the Commissioners, in which
they decided to take no further proceedings in the
matter, they had entered into a very onerous con-
tract for the completion of the building now erect-
ing, and had expended large sums for foundation
and works of unusual difficulty from the nature of
the soil. They had also paid a considerable sum in
the shape of compensation in order to obtain pos-
session of part of the site. Under these circum-
stances, it was stated that the directors could
not suspend the progress of the works—and
they took that opportunity of expressing
their conviction that the interests of the public
would be much better served at a comparatively
trifling cost by the widening of Mansion-house-
street on the south side. On the completion of the
new street from Blackfriars-bridge, the Mansion-
house would front that important. thoroughfare,with
ample space for an entry suitable for the buil ding,
and convenient for the civic processions of State oc-
casions. The removal of the present portion from
the north to the ',western side would give consider-
able additional roadway where it was most needed,
as the set of the traffic was mainly from King Wil-
liam-street, and so the improvement could be
effected by the Corporation without any interfe-
rence with private property, and at a very moderate
outlay. The directors trusted that these sugges-
tions might receive due consideration.
The subject was referred to the Improvement
Committee for consideration and report.

ferior hops the trade is dull, and prices have a drooping
tendency.

BURNT TO DEATII.—An inquiry was held by Mr.
William Payne, city coroner, last evening, at St.
Bartholomew's hospital, respecting the death of a woman,
named Jane Jones, aged 32. Mr. J. S. Daniel, 13, Alders-
gate-buildings, Aldersgate-street, said that the deceased
was a domestic servant in his employ. Last Sunday morn-
ing ho heard loud screams proceeding from the kitchen,
and upon going thither ho found the deceased in flames,
With groat difficulty he succeeded in extinguishing them,
but not before she was dreadfully burnt. She was carried
to the hospital, where she died soon after. It appeared that
while attending to her duties she was seized with a fit and
fell in the fireplace. The jury returned a verdict of acci-
dental death 1)Y fire.
