Judge Refuses To Order Separate Ago
Murder Trials
Holding that the burden was on him to see that justice was done to the accused, taking one apart from the other, Mr Justice Wicks, acting Puisne Judge, in the Criminal Sessions this morning refused an applica- tion by Defence Counsel for separate trials of two brothers who were jointly indicted for the alleged murder of the elder brother's wife on the hillside at Mount Davis on a night in August.
Accused were Chung Wah and his elder brother, Chung Wing, on trial for the murder of Ho Ying.
Spectators this morning included 27 students from Class 5 of St Stephen's Girls College, headed by a teacher, Miss Lam, and 24 recruits from the Police Train- ing School, Fanling, under the charge of Insp. L. Nippard.

On Monday last the premises built by the Medical Missionary Society, as an Hospital and re sidence for the attending surgeon and his family, were put up to Public Auction; but, although the sum expended on their erection was something like a thousand pounds sterling, the highest bona fide bid obtainable for the materials was only dollars eight and five. This bid the Auctionect refused to se cept: not, however, we should suppose, because he thought the materials, in such place, and to be removed within a month, were worth a cent more.
The questions have been, pro- pounded "who constitute the Medical Missionary Society
with authority to order this post of the premises? ...and... whother, under the circumstances, would li not be better to allow them to fall into the hands of Government, who could certainly turn them to better account than the poitay yield of eighty-five Spanish Dollars."
