about 1:to 1 per cent. took place in prices. The
chief feature, however, has been an advance of
about 3 to 32 per cent. in Midland Stock, owing to
the announcement that the dividend will be at the
rate of 61 per cent. per annum. Caledonian, Lon-
don and Black wall, Great Northern, and North-

'TILE DREADFUL MURDER AT ITALTPO.RTH.

The scene of this dreadful murder has throughout the
Whole of this morning been visited by thousands, and the
landlord of the beer shop, The Stag, adjoining the house
ill Which the murders were committed, has in consequence
been doing a thriving trade. A number of constables of
the P division of the Metropolitan Police have been
stationed in front of "the premises, No. 16; Manor-
Place, to prevent the obstruction of the thoroughfare; but
notwithstanding this arrangement, large groups of persons
assemble in the road and stand for hours, alternately gazing
up at the second floor window and discussing the " latest
particulars" relative to the murder. Of course the most
absurd and ridiculous rumours are current, but the only
facts at present known are those which appeared in The
Bun of yesterday, in the examination of the accused at
Lambeth Police-court.

On inquiry at the principal police-station of the P divi-
sion, our reporter learned that the relatives of the girl,
teary Wells Streeter, had arrived in town and identified
the body, who lies with the other three:unfortunate persons
at the Newington Workhouse.

The police are busily engaged making inquiries respecting
the Prisoner, but the information collected will not be made
ice°lin until it is given before the Coroner at the inquest,
Rhich is appointed to be held to-morrow morning.
The Prisoner firmly adheres to the story he told upon
being taken into custody, and denies that he was ever
Seized With insanity.
