A wish has been expressed that Lady Luck try conclusions with Sallgia in the Champions. If the former has gone in a previous ruce, then there may be one or two with an eye on second money, but there will be little betting.

In the witnes box. yesterday afternoon, the "Chinese prisoner charged with the murder of an- other in the Western Market: affray, stated that he was aware of, none of the incidents deposed. to by the Crown witnesses. "He was leaving the market on the morning of the affair when he was struck on the head" several times also on the shoulders by a chopper and remembered" no. thing more.

Asked how it was that if hel was rendered unconscious he managed to put up such a valiant resistance against the police who gave"chase to him, witness said: that he remembered nothing of these incidents neither had he any idea how the weapons alleged to have been found on him came into his hands.

After the addresses of Mr. A. Dyer Ball(prosecuting for the Crown), and Mr. H. S. Fitzroy (counsel for the defence), His Lordship Bummed up and the Jury, after an absence of seven minutes, returned a verdict of guilty.

Before passing sentence-of death, Hia Lordship informed pri soner that on the facts which had been proved he considered there was "ample justification for the verdict the Jury had returned.

Prisoner received the sentence calmly, and quietly left the doo
