The Coroner said it could not be through overcrowding, as the instructions were that ho was not to be taken out till the others were dressed. . A juror: Who was to blamo for leaving the broom in the ward ? Dr Young: Nobody could bo to blame, if there was "no one in the ward. The broom was used to clean up the floor. Mr Macfl'arlane : Did Gschnell give any reason for assaulting Mills ? Dr. Young: He said he wanted to be killed himself. The papers which accompanied Antonio Gschnell on his transfer fi-om the Auck land Gaol to the Asylum wore produced and examined by the jury. The first •was a certificate by Dr. Stockwell, in which lie stated that Gschnell says " that ho feels a sicknoss come on him which compels him to kill a man, and that ho cannot helrj him self. I am informed by Chief Warder Rickerby, Mount Eden Gaol, that he has been an inmate of Nelson Asylum for twelve months, that shortly after his dis charge therefrom he attacked and killed a great friend of his on tho road without apparently any reason, and that he now says he feels afraid ho will kill another. Dr. Goldsbro', in his certificate, said : " He has a strong homicidal and suicidal mania, lias already committed one unprovoked and passionless murder, for which he was sen tenced to death. This was afterwards com muted to penal servitude for life. Has been 50 weeks in tho Nelson Asylum, and for a period in the New Plymouth Gaol and Asylum. States that he must commit another murder, but lias no spite or grudge against any person. These points are corroborated by the at tendants, and also by Dr. Philson, who states the man has a murderous proclivity, though apparently sane in other matters." The letter by G. S. Reston, gaoler at the time'of the transfer, viz., Juno 19th, ISS3, ■was as follows:—"Dr. Young: Sir,—l have the honour to transfer to your custody the prisoner named in the margin (Gschuell). He was tried at the Supreme Court, New Plymouth, on tho 6th November, 1882, upon a charge of wilful murder. He was convicted and sentenced to death, which sentence was afterwards commuted to penal sorvitndo for life. Prior to committing this murder, ho was confined in tho Nelson Lunatic Asylum. He has on several occasions ex pressed his determination to kill someono, and to do it secretly. I thereforo consider him a dangerous person, over whom it is necessary to keep close supervision." John Henry Hooper deposed:—l am a duly registered surgeon, residing in Hobuon street, Auckland. I know the doceascd James John Mills, and had known him for many years, who kept a furniture shop in Victoria-street. I was not aware that ho was in the Asylum until Wednesday morn ing, when I receired a tclophono^ message through the police from T)r. \ oung" request ing my attendance at the Asylum, as one Fitient had fractured the skull of another. arrived at the Asylum shortly before 10 o'clock, and found deceased lying on a bod in one of the sleeping apartments. Thoro were no other patients with him. Ho was quite insensible, with stertorous breathing. There was a serious fracture of tho skull beneath a lacerated wound, on the back of the head, at tho left side. Blood was (lowing freely from it. There were several pieces" of bone depressed on the brain, ; which I removed. (Pieces of bono pro duced. JlfjThe fracture evidently was much moro extensive, -md from'the symptoms I considered tho ease hopeless. I liavo this day made a post mortem examination, 45 hours after death, The body was fairly nourished. There were several contusions on the right hand, and a recent cut on tho back of tho second finger, caused, probably, by putting up the hand to defend himself from tho blow. There was also a recant bruisa over the right collar-bone, and anothor on tho left ankle. The eyes wore ki an aohrymose condition. The forehead over the right eye was bruisod and excoriated. Tho fraoturo of tho skull was of a very extensive character. Tho loft parietal bono was broken into nine pieces, this boing where tho principal blow was struck. The occipital bono at tho back of the head had two loose pieces at tho apex, and it was fractured in a comminuted mannor (in several pieces) behind tho loft oar, oxtend- ! ing down to tho base of tho skull. Tho right parietal bono was fractured justabovo tho right ear, tho loose pieces boing drivon into the brain through tho dura mater, and ■wounding tho right lateral sinua (?) Tho brail! itself was very much contused, with clots of blood over the surface, principally corresponding with the seat of the injury, where tha first blow was struck, and between the hemispheres at tho base of tho brain extending down the spinal canal. Ap pearances appeared to indicato that thore liaA been ft second blow when tho victim fell. Tho cause of death was unmistakably fracture of tho skull. I was shown tho broom (produced), which would cause tho injuries described. There was blood on tho broom then, and it is there now. Tho handle was broken whon I saw it, I did not know Gschnell. George Hardy dop«ied : I am tho chief attendant at tho Auckland Provincial District Lunatic Asylum. I know tho de ceased, James John Mills, and liavo known him since his admission to tho Asylum. When admitted, ho was in a woak condition, and suffering from asthma. Ho was not a violent patient, but very troublesome. Ho vras not maliciously troublosomo, but was tricky, and annoyed other patients. Ho had no particular spito against the man Gsch noll, nor had Gschnell any against him apparently. It was reported to mo about twenty-five minutes past eight o'clock on Wednesday by Attendant Byrnes that Patient Gschnell had murdered Patient Mills. I reported tho circumstance to the Medical Superintendent, and we both went to the place indicated—No. 3 ward. Wo found Patient Mills lying on the floor. An attendant named Clark was with him, but Gschnell had been locked up before they ; arrived. The Medical Superintendent attended to him at once, and then sent for another doctor. Dr. Hooper camo out ehortly afterward*, and tho caso was pro nounced to be hopeless. All the attendants had been properly warned that Gschnell was a dangerous patient, to watch him, and not to leave him alone. Knowing that Gschnell was a murderous lunatic, special instructions were given not to leave him alone with any other patient. Those orders were given to me by the Medical Superintendent, and by mo to the warders or attendants. Tho la»t caution was given on Monday of the present week. I had no more than ordinary doubt of this man at that time. Gschnell was confined to his room until all other patients were washed and dressed. The pationts were let out into tho airing ground after breakfast, Gsehnell amongst tho number. I can not account for Gschnoll being in_ the room where the murder was committed with the deceased Mills. The locks and everything else were in good order in that room. The patienti are supposed to be locked out of tho ward whon they go out into tho airing court. I have examined the locks myself. Thero was no attendant in the ward at the time of the occur rence. Warder James McArarey was in charge. There is a proper store-room kept under lock and key for such things as the broom with which the murder was committed. I have found doors locked but not properly closed, and possibly this may acconnt for Gschnell getting into the room. It is considered . sufficient if the outer doors are all closod. This door might not have been properly locked. Mills was quite able to go out and walk about, and was supposed'to bo out on Wednesday morning. The storerooms are not locked when cleaning. The water closets are left open from the time the patients get up in the morn- Ing, and it is quite possible that he may have secreted himself in there, although thero is no evidence of tho fact. The ncnubbor (produced) is what was picked up in the ward. No scrubburs with broken handles are left about. The attendant, McArevey, has shewn himself intelligent and careful in the performance of his work, ond I have no reason to say anything against him. He never disobeyed any orders. That is all I know about ttie cir cumstances. The Foreman: Was tho storeroom near the ward. Witness: Each ward has a storeroom near the lavatory, from which articles may bo readily obtained by the attendants. The Foreman : How long had the warder loft the room when you had first notifica tion of the blow being struck. Witness: It could not havo been above five minutes. The Coroner pointed out that no one could tell, because no one know when the blow was struck. The Foreman: Was it scrubbing - out time?

Wltnoss: No. The Coroner : Of course, it is is presumed that the ward was empty whan the warder Jeft it. Witness : It is presumed so. Coroner: For what reason did he leave

it? Witness: To go to breakfast. Corner: Of course, there is always a warder with the patients when they are out. Witness There are always three, except when they are working, when the number is reduced to two. There is never less than two. Coroner: Jg: it really your opinion that the warder was. atteutive to his work, and did not skulk'i>ny of hia duties, |-

Witness :It is. I never had fault to find

with him.

In answer to a juror, the witness ex plained that it is necessary to clear away »11 things from the room when the patients came out from bed. All buckets and such things were cleared away. They endea voured to treat Gschnell as kindly as they could. He asked to be allowed to do a little work, and they permitted it, and also consented to him going a little walk, but an attendant was always present on the oc casions. More recently, however, they had been more careful.

A juror : What kind of locks are they '!

Witness: Patent locks,

James McArevey deposed : I am one of the warders of the Asylum, and knew the deceased, James John Mills. At S o'clock the patients of No. 3 ward were at break fast. They finished their meals at ten minutes past eight. I was in charge of the ward, and told tho patients to go out side into the yard. I saw them all out iuto the yard, except ono man Jolly, who being a quiet man, is always left in the ward. I saw Gschnoll go out with the others into the yard. I then locked the door. I am certain that the hasp of the lock caught in the door properly.. The lock was in good condition to tho best of my knowledge. When all the patients were out I was sup posed to go to my bioakfast. This was my usual custom. I was about five minutes away when Byrnes came down and told me that Gsehnell liaxl murdered Mills. I went with him to No. 3 ward and found Mills lying on the ground. Gschnell had been taken to the cell at this time. Gschnell might have taken the broom out of the storeroom, but I am certain I locked the door securely, and I don't know how he could have obtained access to it. There were two other doors opening to the ward, betides the one which I locked. One of these was the water closet door, while the other was always locked. Access could be obtained through the closet door if tho inside door had not besn looked. I have seen the inner door unlocked before now, but I believe it was looked on Wednesday morning. I did not unlock" that door. Gschnell and Mills showed no animosity to each other. Tho warders had all orders to keep a special look-out on tho former, as he was danger ous. Couid not account for the mon being in tho ward, as he saw them go out. Warders Philpot and Burnß gave evidence to hearing Gschnell cry out that ho hiul killed Mills. Burns entered the ward by unlocking and opening the door, and seizod Gsehnell.

Asylum, 4 p.m.

Inspector Thomson is now present on behalf of the police. The Coroner, in summing up, impressed on tho jury that they wore not to deal with the possible carelessness of McAvery. The case was not one of manslaughter, but of deliberate murder. It would lie with the Colonial Secretary to say what means should bo taken in the matter, but the jury had nothing to do with {that. The man could not bo punished more than by his present incarceration. Their duty was to return a verdict of

"WILFUL MURDER."

Tho jury brought in a verdict in accord ance with direction, of wilful murdoragainst Antonio Gschnell.

SUPREME COURT.-Criminal Sessions.

Tho evidence was voluminous, and occupied most part of tho day.—Tho prisoner, in his address to the jury, said that Mr MacCormick was in straitened circumstancos when in his em ploy, and that ho pledged somo of the articles by roquost of Mr MacCormick. —His Honor summed up with great care, and submitted tho caso as clearly as ))Oa siblo to tho jury, who after forty minutes' deliberation, returned into Court with a verdict of " Not guilty."—The prisoner was at once discharged.

This Day.

His Honor took/ is soat at 10 o'clock.

Malicious Injury to Pbovkrtv.—Ed. Dewar Richards sui'rondorcd his bail and was arraigned upon an imlictmont in which ho was charged with demolishing a house at Nowmnrket in August lost. —Prisoner pleaded not guilty.—Mr Hudson William son appeared on tho part of tho Crown. Mr Thoo. Cooper conducted tho cano for tho prosecution, and Mr Heskoth appeared in defonce.—Be: 1.. Tanner deposed Aliat lie was an accountant residing at DoTonport. Owned property at Newmarket (title pro duced), situated next to tho Royal George Hotel. There was a houso on tho allot ment. Ho purchased the property in Juno, 1882. Tlio building consisted of a cottago with sovon rooms. Ho took possession in the month of July. Prisonor occupied it. Ho gave notice to prisoner to giro up possession or submit to a higher rental. At tho eloso of an auction lalo he locked tho house, at that time : empty, and took away tho koy. Caused some ropairg to be done ; subsequently Richards re-ontered without permission. He gave him notice through his solicitor to give up possession. Prisonor refused. He commenced a suit in law to reeoror posses sion. An action was commenced under a , Land Transfer certificate, and he (witness) obtained judgment on the loth August last. Heard subsequently that his house had been interfered with. Ho wont out and found that the front part had be»n removed nearer to tho Royal George Hotel, and the remaining part was literally In ruins, quite uninhabitable. He estimated his loss at £200. The front part had been a butaher's shop. Prisoner was at the salo. He nover paid rent.—To Mr Heskoth: Ho purchased the property of a female. Ho believed at the time that her name was Richards. Ib might have been Kelly. Applied by letter for rent ; nover demanded rent personally from Richards. Did not see any pigs on the premises. He applied foratitleunderthenew Act because lie thought it would be better. Was not aware that such a title would de feat prisoner of any right. Prisoner said that he (Mr Tanner) was only a dummy in tho affair. Ho did not hold the property as a trustee for the Allisons, Rent was to be £1 per week. He did not visit tha premises a second timo, because Richards was a violent man, and he did not care to come in contract with him. To Mr Cooper :He gave ±"340, his own money, for the property.—Rees Gordon Thomas, clerk in the Supreme Court, was sworn, and produced writ, statement of claim, and other documents in connection with the case. —Charlos Henry Walter Dixon, a cadet in the Land Transfer Office.produced the certificate of titlo issued by the Transfer Office ; also, the caveat against the grant in" of the title, and which lapsed.— Charles S. S. George, solicitor, deposed to being tho attesting witness. He could not proceed on the caveat without money ; pri sonor said he was hard up, and the caveat was allowed to lapse. — Joseph Albert : James, a carpenter, of Devonport, deposed , that he was engaged by Mr Tanner to repair the house at Newmarket; he went and found the house unoccupied ; one door was merely latched, tho other was locked up; he did the repairs, papered tho rooms, put on looks and window fasten ings ; the job lasted a week. — John Mullally deposed that ho was a carter, and did a bit of contracting.—Mr Cooper : You can knock a house down occasionally, I presume.—Witness : Anything for an honest penny. He met Richards, and after some parley, he agreed to give Richards £15 for the houso for removal. Was to remove it the next day. He did the job the next morning. Soon had it down. His motto was " wire in," and down came the front part (of the house. Richards was arrested that day, and ho did not doj another hand's turn. He had a jolly good dinner at the Royal George, and Richards carved.— Mr Cooper: That was after you had carved the house ?-Mullally: Aa you like.-Mr Cooper : Have you paid Richards the £15! —Mullally: I don't think so; might, but am not clear about it.—Cross-examined by MrHesketh: He [gave an 1.0. U. for the money, and that was the finish as far as he was concerned. Mrs Gorbett might have picked it up. He could not swear that Richards touched the 1.0. U. Do net remember him saying, "■ There s a lawsuit on, and if you touch the house you do it on your own responsibility." He believed the house would have been standing yet, but tor Mrs Cerbett. —To Mr Cooper: Heard Richards upstairs that morning. The keys were brought to him by the girl.—William Dinnison deposed that he was a house and land agent. Knew prisoner and the house. The house was converted into a shop. Wit ness gave an account of the house from tho time it was built to its removal on the 9th' of" August. Could not
