POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAL)

BOW-STREET.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—Mary Ann Jones was this morn-
ing placed at the bar, in accordance with remand, charged
with attempting to commit suicide.
From the evidence of a witness named Long, it appeared
that the woman had resided with him as his wife for the
last 18 years, and a more industrious or good-tempered
woman could not be found, but when she was laid hold of
by her drunken companions she became perfectly insane
from the effects of the drink she received. In one of thee•
drunken orgies she made a most desperate attempt at self-
destruction. At first she appeared to have intended to
effect her object by strangulation, from the fact that a
pieoo of cord was found fastened tightly round her neck,
but this not proving successful she cut her throat with a
razor, and then inflicted a deep cut across the upper part of
her arm. When she was discovered medical aid was pro-
cured, and she had been an inmate of an hospital since the
26th of August.

The magistrate said ho found by the surgeon's certificate
that she was still in a very precarious state, and as he had
doubts of her being of perfectly sane mind, he should re-
mand her until she had undergone an examination by the
medical officers of the Strand Union.

The unfortunate woman was accordingly again remanded
or that purpose.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ANOTHER ASSAULT ON THE WITNESS FOR GIVING
Ev DB CE.—William M'lntosh, a young man, described
as a painter, was charged, before Mr. Beadon, with as-
saulting a female, named Brown, living in Gart-street,
Soho, and working at Messrs. Crosse and Blackwell's,
Soho-square.
A woman named Myers, it may be remembered, was fined
20s. or 14 days, for an assault on the complainant, the only
provocation appearing to be that she had given evidence
at this court connected with a watch robbery.
The complainant now said that on the previous night as
she was passing along the street, the prisoner, who was
with six or seven others, called her a "lagging cow," and
then deliberately picked up a stone and threw it at her,
striking her a severe blow on the leg.
Sergeant Smith said as he was taking the prisoner into
custody and to the station stones were thrown at him and
the complainant.

Mr. Beadon said it was very serious, and asked whether
anybody else saw the assault, and being informed that a
little girl had witnessed it, he ordered her to be sent for.
The little girl attended and proved the assault.
Sergeant Smith said the girl was threatened outside the
court.

Sergeant Cole said he had several times lately heard the
female Brown threatened.

Mr. Beadon fined the prisoner 40s. or a month, and said

if he found the complainant was continually tormented he
would put on the heaviest fine, and if any person put a
finger on either the complainant or the little girl he would
commit them with hard labour for six months.

As the 'witnesses were leaving the court they were fol-
[owed and shouted at by a large crowd.

APPLICATION TO ESTRBA.T BAIL FOR ONE OF HEENAN'S
SECRETARIES —Sergeant Silverton, of the C Division,
applied to Mr. Beadon to estreat the bail put in by Mr,
Morris, proprietor of the New York Hotel, Leicester street,
Leicester-square, on behalf of George Robinson, who was
described as of the Round Table, St. Martin's-court, and
who was stated at the time to be acting as one of Heenan's
secretaries.

The Sergeant said that Robinson was charged on the
night of the 3d July with threatening to stab a civilian,
with being drunk, and also with tearing the uniform coat
of a constable named Smith, 72 C. He took Mr. Morris's
bail for Robinson's appearance at the court the next morn-
ing, but insfead of his appearing he the same morning
started for America with Heenan._ He believed Mr. Morris
had been induced by Heenan, who was then staying at his
hotel, to be bail for the man, and that ho was not going to
leave England.
Mr. Beadon said Mr. Morris had no business to bail a
man he knew nothing about. It was for the Commis-
sioners of Police to decide whether the bail should be
estreated, and if so it would have to be done in the Court
of Exchequer.

TIIIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was again scantily supplied with home-
grown wheat, chiefly of the new crop, and in very middling
condition. The demand for both red and white qualities was
much restricted, at Monday's decline in the quotations.
The value of the new wheats ranged from 44s to 60s por
quarter.

There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on offer.
All kinds were a dull inquiry. In prices, however, no
change took place.

Floating cargoes of grain were a dull inquiry.
Barley was in moderate request, at previous currencies.
There was very little business doing in malt, at barely
stationary prices.
We have to repn,t a dull inquiry for oats, and inferior
samples were somewhat lower to purchase.
Beans and peas moved off slowly, on former terms.
The flour trade was heavy, at Monday's fall in value.
