A STRANGE MURDER STORY: Arthur Padatan, staying at the New Bridge Hotel, Bridge-street, Westminster, has been charged at Bow. street Police-court, on his own confusion, with the Wilful murder of Manly Strickland, at Timmerman's Perm, Tonawanda, America, on April 6 last. Detective-sergeant Bush, of Scotland-yard, said that about 20 minutes past six the previous evening the prisoner came to the office in Whitehall, and said he wished to give himself up for the murder of • man in America. After 'he had received the usual caution, the prisoner said that "on April 2 last in the woods at Tonswands bi Anaerioa, I murdered a man named Strickland by shooting him through the heart, and he fell dead. It was through jealousy. I gave my. self up to the palice, but on my way to Buffalo I got faint-hearted, and said it was an accident , I was afterwards acquitted by the coroner's jury.' The prisoner signed the Statement, and was then taken to King-street Police-station. On the way he said, "I cannot stand it any longer; I get no sleep, and have to take laudanum. I took a vial last night. After I wee acquitted by the curoner• jury it preyed upon my mind, and I purchased another revolver and went to Strickland's grave with the intention of committing suicide. My heart failed me again, and I went to the police a second time as I was so much worried. The police found two letters upon me, and after reading them and hearing my story they came to the conclusion that I was mad, and sent me to the Buffalo Asylum. I was discharged early in August and came over to this country, arriving in London on Monday last. I am determined to stand my trial for the wilful murder of Strickland." The prisoner gave witness a certificate of his naturalisation and also a cutting from an American newspaper relating to the murder of the man Strickland, Be was remanded for a week.
