The proceedings took a sensa- sional turn at this juncture,

Chinese detective rushing into Court and informing the Magis- trate that the servants whom he had been sent to fetch had decid- ed to be legally represented and that they were at that moment in the office of a local solicitor.

His Worship: In that case, gentlemen, have no alternative but to adjourn this inquiry once again, but I will take steps to see that they are here on Monday afternoon next. (To Div. Insp. F. Grant) Please swear the neces- sary information and I will issue subpoenas for each of these men.
