FURTHER EXAMINATION OF THE ACCUSED.—
MANSION-HOUSE THIS DAY.
The accused William Smith, who stands charged
on suspicion with being the murderer of Mrs. Sarah
Millsotn, was placed at the bar for further exami-
nation.
Mrs Bailey repeated the evidence she gave at the
coroner's inquest on Wednesday, but in cross-
examination she admitted that she had been con-
victed of begging, and that she, could not say where
she passed the day previous to teeing the prisoner
on the night of the 11th of April. Her evidence
was altogether much shaken.
An additional witness named Smallman said,—l
saw the prisoner on the 4th of April, in the evening,
at Bevington's. I was on the same side of the way.
I heard the prisoner call the person he was talking
to, " a wretch." He appeared to be talking to a
kind of female.

Mr. Scarth objected to such an answer.
The Lord Mayor—Did you see the person
inside ?
Witness—Yes. It was a female. I saw her pass
a piece of money to the prisoner. It was silver,
but I can't pay whether it was sixpencce or a shil-
ling. I heard him say, "Is this all, you wretch."

stick in his hand. It had
a knob at one end and a dagger at the other.
It was like what the " swells" used to carry in
the anti-garotte days. Thestick was similar to that
which can be seen in many shop windows in the
City. I saw the dagger at the end of the stick, and
I heard the prisoner say, " In a short time I'll do
for you, you wretch." I picked the prisoner out from
70 or 80 others yesterday in Newgate.

in Cannon-street. I was standing near Beving-

finished talking to the person, ran off towards
Ludgate-hill.

The Lord Mayor—Where did he put the stick

and put it underneath it.

tween ten minutes and a quarter to seven on the
evening of the 11th of April. He wore a hat, and
had to the best of my recollection a stick in his
hand. The place where I met him was between
the Fifteen-arch bridge and Eton College, and a
mile and a half from the railway station.
Cross-examined—Prisoner was not walking at
the rate of six miles an hour. I know the Jolly

recollect there were some private c,neatricals at the
college the saute evening. I have often met the
prisoner before on the Slougb-road.
Mr. Wontner—That, my lord, is all the evidence
I have to offer to-day. I have to ask for another
remand.

Mr. Scarth—l really think we should know when
the case is likely to be completed. It is a great
hardship to the accused to be so frequently re-
manded. I hope the evidence will be considered to
be completed on the next examination.

The Lord Mayor again remanded the prisoner
till this day week.

MARKETS.-- Ilia Day.

MARK-LANE.

Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of home-
grown wheat were but moderate. The condition of the
produce was only middling. The trade for all qualities
ruled quiet, but factors were firm, and Monday's currency
was supported.

The market was fairly supplied with foreign wheat.
There was a moderate demand for most descriptions, and
prices ruled firm.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
The supply of English barley on sale was very mode-
rate ; of foreign, good. The trade was quiet on former
terms.

Malt was in slow request at. Monday's currency.
The market was well supplied with oats. Good and fine
samples ruled firm, at full currencies, but for inferior qua-
lities the trade was slow, at late rites.

Beans and peas met a slow sale, at Monday's quotations.
There was only a moderate demand for flour, at late
rates.
