SUSPICIOUS OCCURRENCE.

A Charge of Attempted Murder,

Considerable sensation was occasioned in town yesterday afternoon by the circula tion of a rumour to the effect that a married

woman named Olson, residing in Nolson -Biroot,had boon found with her throat cut— the attendant circumstances, it being stated, leading to the supposition that a murder had 'been attempted. The facts are as follow :—At 10.80 yesterday morning, in formation was conveyed to the Police Station that Mrs Olsen was lying in bed in &H house in Nelson-street with her throat partly out, Detective Twohey and Sergeant Xiery at once proceeded to tha place indi-' cated, and found the fact as stated. The' woman, who was bemg attended by Dr.1 Bayntun, was suft'erittß from a wound three1 inches long at ttf j right side of the wind pipe. The doctor having stitched up the1 wound, ordered the woman's removal to the Hospital, which was subsequently done. On' ising questioned by the police as to the (Cause of the wound, the woman, who was apparently suffering from Itha effects of a heavy bout of drink ing, made a number of extraordinary ■and contradictory statements, one of thorn ibaing that three men had come into her loom, and that one of them had stabbed her ■ <with a she»th knife. As her condition was 'bordering on delirium tremens, but little - credence was placed in her statements. An examination of the bedroom showed that m broken water jug stood near the head of ithe bed in which Mrs Olsen was lying. On tha broken edge of the jug was a strip of tinman skin and some hair, a fact which en abled the police to arrive at a very feasible theory as to the cause of the wound. They concluded that the woman, when in a drunken state, had rolled oft' the bed and «ot her neck on the edge of the jug. This theory- b Btrongtlionoct by statements made by neighbours, which aro to the effect that though on Saturday evening there was ono man in the house with Mra Olson, her statement about the tkrw men was quite uutrue. Some days pin vtaly the woman had been raving about three men being in tho house. From what ire hare been ablo to gather, tho woman has beea la liquor for about twelve days. On Sttatday morning last, sho, with a man , named Holland, was charged at tho Police Cwb with drunkenness, aDd a benevolent Itdy—Mrs Hutchinson—connected with the Salvation Army paid their fines. Mrs Olson .it about 34 years of age, and has been mar ried for nine years to Captain [Olsen, the master of a vvsrel trading to the Bay of Islands. Olsea is a respectable, hard-work ing man, and his wife's intemperance has caused him much trouble and expense. She suffers from some nervous trouble, and vivory Bmnll quantity of drink causes her to lose command over herself. She is now in the Hospital, and is ..doing as well aa could_ be expected. This morning Sergeant Kiely arrested on a charge of drunkenness tho man Holland, whoso fine was paid by Mrs Hutchinson on Saturday. On being eaarched at the Police.Station to-day, blood was noticed on Ms hat and on », «igln his pocket. From this fact it ia surmised that he was with Mrs Olsea during Saturday night, and was «n tha hocuro at the time of the accident, mo Mspiojion of foul play attaches to him.

Later Particulars. "feinco the above was written Holland has been fully identified as tho man who was with Mrs Olsen on Saturday night, and will be charged at the Police Court to morrow, with Attempted murder.
