DETERMINED SUICIDE IN A POLICE CELL.  On Tuesday at the Workhouse, Coventry, Dr Iliffe, coroner, held an inquest into the circumstances attending the death of James Ball, a pauper formerly an inmate of the Workhouse.— The deceased had beeuin and out of the house for several years, and Mr. Martin, the master, admitted him on tho last occasion on January 10th. He was destitute, but there was nothing in his manner to lead to the supposition that he was suffering from melancholia in any form. He was 39 years of age, and a weaver. On Sunday night last he went to bed with the other inmates, but during the night he broke out of the place, marks on tho boundary wall showing the spot where he made his escape. He had been well treated, aud had made no complaints whatever. Shortly after midnight on Sunday Police-eonstable Smith, of Stoke, met the deceased on the Binley Road, walking very fast from the direction of Coventry. He said to the deceased, "Hallo, • where are you going?" Deceased replied, "'l'o Rugby." In reply to another question the deceased said, after some hesitation, that he bad got out of the Workhouse by climbing over the wall. Smith took him back to the County Police Station at Coventry, and banded him over to the care of Superintendent Wilson, by whom be was locked up in a cell, on the charge of absconding from the Workhouse with clothing belonging to the Guardians of the poor. He was supplied with a bed, and rugs, and at 8. o'clock Policeconstable Tallett took him into the yard, Where be washed himself and remained for something like half-an-hour. At nine o'clock the Superintendent and Police-constable Tallett wont to take the deceased his breakfast. Tallett unlocked the door, and it was then seen that the deceased was banging from the ventilator by his scarf, one end being tied to the knob, and the ether placed round his neck in a slip knot. The body was cut down and placed on the bed, and being yet warm artificial means were adopted by the Superintendent to restore respiration, while Tallett went for Dr. llaig. Life, however, WM quite extinct. The Coroner mentioned, as showing a morbid tendency on the part of the deceased, that when the man who was killed on the railway was taken to the Workhouse, several men gathered at the mortuary door, and the deceased said, "Ah I there's no telling what was on that poor fellow's mind; perhaps he's better off."—The jury returned a verdict that the deceased hanged himself while temporarily of uneound mind.—Mr. Beamish (chairman), and several other Guardians were present during the enquiry.
