THE TRADE MURDER AT SHEFFIELD.

The inquiry into the circumstances attending the-
death of Bridget O'Rourke, by the evplosion of-
a case of gunpowder, thrown through th e window
into a dwelling-house in Sheffield, was resumed
before Mr. Webster, the deputy coroner, ,on Wed-
nesday, at the Town-hall, Sheffield. George West-
ridge, the person against whom the attadc was
directed, and the husband of the other woman who
was so seriously injured, was examined. He stated
that he was a stove, grate, and fender grinder,
working for Mr, Hoole, of Green-lane, who first
employed Lim in June last, in consequence of other
men turning out. He had at the time been nearly
two years out on strike himself, and was glad of it
good situation with regular work. He was shortly
after mobbed, and obliged to run home to escape.
The men who followed him said that he deserved
to be murdevid for taking work at Hoole's, and_
several of thew said if they could get hold of him
they would "do i'is job." Thompson, the prisoner,
and his wife, were by at the time. Ihe latter
said that Wastridg'e should be burnt, and would
be burnt before loeg. A few weeks, after the
witness went to Mr. Hoole's Bagshaw, keeper
of a co-operative store, and the secretary of the
Saw-grinders' Trades Union, and Broadhead,
the keeper of the Roya,'l, George Tavern, and
president of the Associated Trades of Sheffield,
asked him and other men worix-ing at Green-lane to
meet them at a public-house. ,Nn interview took
place, when Wastridge and his fellow-workmen
were asked to name a sum which would induce
them to leave their employment. SevOral offers
were on other occasions made and rejected. At
last an agreement was come to that they cere to
have £lO a man. This sum was not paid, however,
and they remained in their employment. At the
last interview they had Broadhead said that they
must come out whatever the consequences were.
The witness, after making these statements, de-
scribed what took place on the 23d ult., without
adding any fact of importance to those previoiisly
mentioned. Evidence was then brought forward
to show that Bridget O'Rourke, the deceased, was in
a weak state of mind at the time she made her de-
claration, and that no reliance was to be placed on
her incoherent statements about a parcel of gun-
powder being seen in the house before the explo-
sion. The inquiry was again adjourned, Mrs.
Wastridge, although recovering, not being yet Able
to appear before a jury.
