Gentlemen favor this policy, whose judg-

SAN FRANCISCO, March 1S.-The steam
ship MonoWai arrived this morning, twen-
ty-fiye days from Sydney, Australia, and
seven from Honolulu. The whole town of
Tauranga, Auckland, was thrown into a
state Of excitement February 9th, owing to
the murder Of his wife and four little chill
dren by Duncan Munro, stepson of James
Bodell, late mayor of that town. Munro
had been an inmate of the Whan insane
asylum about three years ago, being af-
hicted with religious mania. He had re-
Gently been acting strangely and talking of
offering a sacrifice to the Most High, but
his relatives feared no harm from him. On
the night Of February 8th Munro's brother
spent some hours with the family before
taking his leave. When the milkman
called at the house in the morning he was
unable to rouse the family. He opened the
kitchen door and found Mrs Munro and
the eldest boy, years old, on the floor in
pool OF blood, their heads being battered
in. The milkman saw Munro on the beach
at the back of the house, attired only in
his night clothes. The police were called
in and Munro was secured. 1t was
then found that his wife and the
four children still breathed Under
them were found a fatiron and rolling
pin, covered with blood. In the front bed
room the bodies of two little boys, three
and five years of age, respectively, were
found in bed with their heads crushed in,
and in a cot near by an infant daughter lay
dead, with her skull beaten in. All the
victims were alive when found, but soon
died, with the exception of the youngest
boy, who bids fair to recover. The jury
at the inquest found verdict of wilful
murder, and also that Munro should not
have been released from the ASYLUM.

ors, many of whom were medical men. All
united in saying that the infant was one of
the strangest freaks of nature ever known.
The brains were distinctly visible, being

brane. There wss no forehead, and the
top of the head is perfectly fiat. The
Anzzinis are peculiarly unfortunate
