(From our own correspondent.) There are evidently some robbers about the town. Late on Wednesday evening the pre- mises of Mr. William Cakebread, coal and jemmies having been used to open the staple fastening it. The burglars searched the premises well, even to the turning inside out of the pockets of some coats hanging up ; but they only succeeded in getting a few shillings worth of postage stamps and a few oranges. A lighted candle and also lighted paper had been used in floor being strewn with paper ashes this morning. The stamps were found in the kitchen of the Queen's Head Hotel, owned by Mr Clanchy, subsequently visited by the burglars at about 12 o'clock. The thieves got into the bar parlour by opening a win- dow facing the back yard of the hotel. They managed to obtain from two money boxes about 30s., belonging to Mr. Clanchy's chil- dren, and also a gold watch. They then proceeded to the kitchen, consuming several found in the store near the hotel, and took with them several bottles of sherry. As they left the stamps referred to behind them, it is surmised that after indulging in the luxuries in the kitchen they had suddenly to decamp. This is the fourth robbery which has taken place this week. The inquiry into the circumstances con- nected with the death by drowning of Edward Minchington in the Barwon was resumed at the police court to-day, when Dr. Walshe, resulted from asphyxia from drowning. Mr. Couves, J.P., who conducted the inquiry, recorded his opinion that the man had wan- dered into the river whilst in a state of intoxication, and was drowned ; and he com- mented in severe terms upon those who were upon the spot, but rendered no assistance beyond throwing out a rope.

Considerable excitement was caused on Monday morning by a collision in front of Parliament House, North-terrace. A trolly and pair, owned by Mr. S. Thred- gold, carrier, of North-terrace, and drives by Mr. T. Margitich, was brought to a standstill on Victoria-bridge, King William-road, to allow the driver to re-fasten a pole-chain, which had become loose. While he was on the ground one of the horses took fright. The pair then careered along the road and turned into North-ter- race. Mr. Margitich is said to have made a particularly courageous attempt to stop the runaways. He rnanaged to hold one of the reins, and get on the trolly but the brake could not hold the bolting horses. Opposite Parliament House the trolly and pair collided head on with a cab on the rank there. Immediately the four horses were mixed up in what seemed like inextricable confusion, and the kick- ing and screaming of the animals soon drew a large crowd. The harness was cut away, and the cab was lifted bodily clear. One of the horses had an off hind leg badly cut, but otherwise no damage or injury was done, and the cabdriver (Mr. T. H. Moyle, of Jeffcott-street, North Ade- laide) escaped unhurt. Fortunately the cab was unoccupied. |

The City Coroner (Dr. Ramsay Smith) conducted an inquest at the Adelaide Police Court on Monday morning into the circumstances surrounding the death of Errel George Hartwell, a youth, aged 17, who had died at the Adelaide Hos- pital on October 22, where he had been admitted suffering from injuries sustained in a collision with a train while driving a milk cart at Murray Bridge on Octo- ber 2. A BOLTING HORSE. On Friday Mr. W. Roesler tied his horse, Springton, October 25. William James Hartwell, carrier, of Magill-road, St. Peters, identified the body of the deceased as that of his son. So far as he knew the boy had good sight and sound hearing. John Edmond O'Donnell, enginedriver on the train which collided with the de- ceased's cart, stated that when approach- ing the first crossing after leaving Mur- ray Bridge for Adelaide, he blew the whistle twice. It was a very dark night, and he took the extra precaution of sounding the alarm the second time, be- cause he recognised that the crossirig was a bad one. He did not see the light on the deceased's cart approaching the cross- ing until he was only a short distance from the crossing himself. He applied the air brake, but there was no hope of stopping the train, and the engine struck the horse on the shoulder. As soon as the train had stopped the witness went back to the crossing, and saw a youth sitting on the road about 2 ft. 6 in. from the rails. His leg and arm were badly crushed. Ernest Robert Brown, a mason, of Mur- ray Bridge, stated that he saw the acci- dent from about 100 yards away. He heard the train whistle twice. The de- ceased was standing up in his cart carry- ing a hurricane lamp when the collision occurred, and he was thrown on to the rails. James Alfred Marshall, porter, of Mur- ray Bridge, deposed that he set the gong ringing at the crossing as the train left the station. The gong was automatically cut off by the engine passing over a rail on the station side of the crossing. Edward Brooke Thomas, resident medi- cal officer at the Adelaide Hospital, stated that Hartwell was admitted to the Ade- laide Hospital on October 3. He was quite conscious, and told the witness that he had been run over by a train the previous night. Six days after his ad- mission bronho-pneumonia set in; but the witness thought that was probably adven- titious. Empyema on the right side of the chest followed, and septicaemia fol- lowed on that, and caused death. Had not the pneumonia set in the boy might have lived, for the original injuries would not necessarily have caused death. The Coroner recorded a verdict of death from septicaemia following on broncho- pneumonia. |
