THE TRUNK HORROR.  Mrs. Goold was medically examined on Monday in order to see the extent of the bruises whieh were aooidsntally discovered on her body when she was overcome by the heat on Saturday. No fewer than thirteen marks of bruises, most of them on. her arms and legs, vies-J found, mid there is no doubt that she must have recently bent a party :n a terrible struggle. The statement ehe makes is that the injuries are the result of a fall which she sustained when getting out of the earriaga as she was being brought to the station with her husband aftsr the discovery of the TeiMatTLO in the trunk. The doctor states that even if she had a fail it would net account for so many bruiess, and that many at these would seem to have been inflicted about the tints the crime was committed. Gool4l has somewhat recovered from his frenzy, and the doctor who examined him states that 119 is unlikely to give way to another outbreak. The porter Berard, who, with his colleague Pore. contributed to the *wrest of the Geolde, was attacked and badly wounded in the streets last night. He is a man forty-eight wars old, and the father of three children. Two men stopped him and asked him for a light. While one was taking it the other shot Berard in the back. The magistrates do not at present connect this at- • taok in any way with the murder at Mme. TO THE EDTTOB Or Tea lIIIIKINHIAD tIaWS. Lenin.
