THE MURDER OF MR. NENDICK. ARREST OF ONE OF THE SUPPOSED MURDERERS.  On 'Nee lay a man came to the Wolverhampton Police and Station, said a man named Rd. Hicksm had made a statement to him with reference to Mr. Nendick's murder. The statement the mall made was somewhat in these words:--`; I murdered Nendiek ; I have had no peace since, and have not slept night or day since it happened. I shall ex e myself up. I took the dagger and used it, and left the dagger there because I broke it., and I jumped thrqugh the window. We ttkok his pocket, and we thou& there was about ..t29 in, but when Sc looked at it we found there was only ss. 9d.'' Upon hearing this statement, Inspector Thomas immediately went to the neighbourhood of Brickkiln. street.,,.i there found the young man Hickson, whom be app... led. Before Inspector Thomas bad charged him vi; or offence, the accused said to him, "I know what yn ve got me for; you have got me for Nendides affa On their way to the station he said he knw the , .•;or party, who was his "pal." Inspector Thomas at once brought the man to the police station, ant he was here charged with being concerned with others in th. murder of Mr. Neudick. His reply was, "Who have ,ingot to swear against met" He talked lot of relevant matters, and said be could call his employers to prove that he had borne a good charaeLer. On the waistcoat he was wearing there wore several marks resembling blood, but it is not at present certain that they are blood stains. With reference to the rionark made by the accused concerning the " Pocket," it may be stated that the Chief-constable and In=pector Thomas ascertained on Wednesday that the clothes of the deceased had not been cut. It is possible that by the word " pocket " the prisoner meant an ord:uary calico pocket worn by grocers in front of thir aprons. A pocket was found in the possession of the prisoner on Wednesday. On Wednesday morning the prisoner was brought heforethe Stipendiary magistrate, I.Spooner,Esq., at the Borough Police-court, and formally charged with the offence, and an application was made on the part of the police that he might be remanded for a week, to give them time to make further enquiries. The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said, " I am innocent." Inspector Thomas, having given evidence as to the arrest of the accuaed, Mr. Spooner asked him whether, if the application for a remand was granted, he believed he could obtain evidence in support of the charge. Inspector Thomas said he believed he could. The prisoner repeated that he was innocent, adding that at the time the murder of Mr. Nendick was said to have been committed he was at a temperance meeting in another part of the town. Mr. Spooner, considering the serious nature of the charge, felt justified in remanding him. The prisoner was then remanded for a week, sad was removed back to the cells.
