VAUGHAN AGAIN REMANDED.  On Wednesday morning the prisoner, Edward William 'Vaughan, was brought up at the Occasional Courthouse, Warrington. before Mr. James Tinsley, and charged on remand with the wilful murder of Thomas Ellaman, at Rixton, on the 27th April. The prisoner had been brought from Padgate by the 10.15 train, in custody of P.S. Barnes. Superintendent Weir applied fora remand until the 12th inst. Mr. Arthur Browne, who represented the prisoner, said he had no objection to a remand, but the day mentioned would be very inconvenient, as it was a County Court day.—The Clerk suggested that some formal evidence be offered by the police.—Superintendent Weir stated that he received the prisoner into custody at Ross. He charged him with the offence. Prisoner made a statement to the effect that it was an accident.—Mr. Tinsley: Do you see any reason, Edward William Vaughan, why you should not be remanded?— Mr. Browne: On the prisoner's behalf, I say that I have no objection.--Superintendent Weir, to suit the convenience of the defence, asked that the prisoner be remanded until Friday, 13th inst.—Mr. Tinsley thereupon granted a remand as asked.—Mr. Browne applied for bail. He said that his worship would have seen from the newspapers that the result of the Coroner's inquiry had been an open verdict. Therewas not, he thought, the shadow of a doubt in the minds of the police and himself that there could be no case of wilful murder, because the police admitted that they ,could not find any motive for the crime. That diaposed of the "wilfully and maliciously," and it resolved itself into manslaughter or nothing. The prisoner surrendered to the police. His father was a very respectable man, a man of property. He (fifr. Browne) held in his hand a letter from the Vicar of Gorsley, near Newent, Gloucestershire, the writer saying that he had known the parents tor 25 years and could testify to their great respectability. As to the eon, he could hear nothing but good of him. He seemed to have been a friend of everybody and an enemy of none, and would be the last person in the world to hurt Anyone. The Vicar of St. Sohn's, Chelsea, kad written also, saying that he would do everything he could to help the family.—Mr. Tinsley : I might as w.eil tell you before you go further, that I should not grant bail without consulting Mr. Weir.—Supdrintendent Weir , lam not free to admit that there is no motive.—The Clerk: Can you tell us what the verdict of the Coroner's jury was ?—Mr. Browne: It was an .open verdict.— , Superintendent Weir: I would not feel jaistified in being: a party to vemand on bail.—The prisoner was then for- , many remanded until Friday, 13th June.
