VERDICT OF THE JURY.

We continue our report of the coroner's in quest yesterday on the body of the man Dewson. Constable Sheehaii deposed that last Saturday morning about 2.15 a.m. he was near Darby-street, when ho met. Constable Addison. Just as they met, tho deceased came along from the direction of Grey street. He stopped between the' Albert and Thistle Hotels. He had his hand to hia head, and was without hat or coat. Dew son said he was struck by a man named j Clegg with an iron hook. Witness asked what the hook was like. He said it was a i lumper's hook. He then said that he wanted to see a doctor, and that he would pay all expenses. Dewson appeared to have had drink, but was able to speak quite sensibly and walk steadily. Witness ac companied Dewson to Dr. Dawson's, where he loft him in charge of Constable Addison. He next saw Dewson in custody of Detec tive Hughes and Constable Addison, about three-quarters of an hour afterwards. Dewson would not then walk, and they called witness to assist him. Ho was kicking and struggling violently. Afterwards he walked to the station, and was put into the cell. There was another prisoner in the cell Witness did not consider the man a prisoner when" he first inch him. There was no re ference then made to his going to the Hos pital. When he saw Dewson in custody of Detective Hughes he appeared intoxicated. By Sergeant Pratt: He did not know the extent of deceased's injuries at the time he was arrested. He did net then know that Dr. H.oopor had advised Ins removal to the Hospital. Constable Addison told witness that it was the name man whom they took to the doctor. He also told wit ness that, the doctor thought that, the man's head was fractured. That was after he hod been placed in the cells. When Con stable Addison met Sergeant McMahon, witness heard him tell the sergeant that he had taken the man to the doctor. He did not hear Addison say that Dr. Hooper had ordered tho man to be removed to tho Hospital. Detective Edward Hughes deposed that a few minutes before 3 o'clock on Saturday morning, the 26th iiisfc, he met Arthur Dewsou in Queen-street. He had known him for four years as , a man of intemperate habits and the keeper of a house of ill-fame. He knew that the deceased hud been in Mount Eden (Jaol ten times—once for cutting and wounding. When he first saw the deceased, he was without coat and hat, running as fast as possible, and was in a very excited state. Witness ran after him. He heard Dewson saying, " I'll kill him ; I'll murjer him." Witness soon caught him, when tho man again said, "I'll kill him." Witness asked, " Who ?" Dewson replied, "Sam Clegg." Dewy on smelled very strongly' of liquor, and did his beet to get away from witness. Witness arrested him, feeling certain that he was in delirium tremens. He brought Dewson to a coffee stall in Grey-street, where he lay down. Mr Holland, tinsmith, Gr'ey-3treet, assisted him for several yards until relieved by Constable Addison. Sub sequently they were joined by Constable Sheehan. Dcweon walked part of the way, and struggled violently, kicking out. When lie arrested Dewson he saw blood on his face but no bandage on his head. When Dewson had been placed in the cell Con stable Addison told him that he had taken Dewson to Dr. Hooper. Addison did not say that Dr. Hooper stated that the skull was fractured. Addison said he had in tended taking Dewstfn to the Hospital. Witness and Addison, by orders of Ser geant McMahon, went to Clegg's house in Marmion-street. There he saw M rs Dewson and Clegg. Mrs Dewson was the worse tor drink • Clegg was in bed, and was sober. Mrs Dewson said that there had been a row, and Clegg had struck her husband over the head with the belt produced. Clegg said that Dewson and his wife were quarrel ling, and he asked them to stop, as they were annoying their neighbours. He then pushed Dewson out of the room. He denied having struck Dewson with the belt or anything else. Witness told Clegg that Dewson had a wound on his bead. He replied that he knew nothing about it. Witness got the hook (prdduced) next day. He saw iome blood on a sack, but very little He knew that Clegg was a lumper on the wharf. He had never seen him drunk. Could not say thrift. Jβ was He had never seen him disorderly. Did fob know that Clegg had ever previously been convicted of an offence. At 4 a.m witness, at the request of Constable Addison, visited Dewson in the cell. Dewson was lying on his back on the floor, 3K a blankeb under him and another as a covering. He seemed asleep. fitness felt the pulse and looked at the cut on the head In the opposite corner of the cell was another prisoner. He next saw de based at 10.15 o'clock, when he still ap nSred to be sleeping. Constable Mc- Knell tried to wake him, but could nob. Whe eaid that the skull was fractured.. SdtewM ™ noont of tbo d,ar K e. When

hoard that tho wound was dangerous was after Dew.son was dead. Had ha known that the doofcor harl ordered Dewson to bo taken to tho Hospital, he would at once have removed him there.

SergciiiitMcMahondepoc-ed that he wason duty on Saturday morning last. Hβ saw Detective Hughes and Constables Addison and ShoehanV Addison snid they had locked up tunnn for being drunk and dis orderly. They .said he had been wounded by Samuel Clegg, and tiiat Dr. Hooper had dressed tho wound. He did not seem to think it was serious. Witness directed Hughes to inquire into the matter. He did not hear anything , of a cab having been ordered to take the man to the Hospital. Witnessvisited Dewson in the cell. He did not then appreliund any danger. The wound seemed small and not dangerous. Witness again visited Dewson as he came off duty at 5 o'clock. He was still asleep. He was never told that Dr. Hooper had ordered the man to be taken to tho Hos pital. The regulations were that the ser geant must visit the cells every two hours, and the lock-up keeper every hour. Constable Kelso deposed to being in charge of the lock-up when Dewson was brought in, at about 3 a.m. He was told that the man had a wound,. but not of a serious nature. Dewson did not say wfio had struck him. Witness gave ' Dew son three blankets, folding up one for a pillow. Witness visited Dewson a quarter of an hour after he was placed in the cell.

Witness looked at the wound on the hoad. it appeared small, lie also visited the cell at 10 minutes to 7 o'clock. Dewson was still asleep. He spoke to him and tried to rouse him, but could get no answer. Witness removed him to a dry cell, as the other one had become wet and dirty. Witness had to carry him, as he did not awake. At 7 a.m. witness in formed Sergeant Lyons of the occurrence, and asked him to look at the prisoner. They both went to the cell, and Sergeant Lyons said, that he thought Dewson was sleeping all right, but had not quite re covered from hiadrunkenness. At 8.30 o'clock Constable McConnell took charge of the lock up. At B.4so'clock witness, hi company with Sergeant Pratt, visited the prisoner, who was still sleeping. Sergeant iPrutt intimated that ho could produce six other witnesses to testify,to the care of the police in the matter, but the jury signified that they wore satisfied, and accordingly no further evidence waa ad duced,

The jury, after about 10 minutes' delibera tion, returned the following verdict: — "That the deceased met his death by a blow, but by whom given wo have not suffi cient evidence to show. Wo also exonerate tho police from any bin me in the matter." Tiio coroner asked tho foreman whether they had considered whether it was murder or manslaughter.

The foreman said that they had not thought of that. The members of the jury, however, all .said that they considered it manslaughter, and the verdict was recorded accordingly. .The jury continued sitting from 10 a.m. till 3.30 p.m. without adjourning for lunch.

BEFORE THE COURT.

At the Police Court this morning, Samuel Clegg v.'aa again placed in the dock and charged with manslaughter. ]To ajrain pleaded " Not (Juilty." Sergeant Pratt stated that an inquest in connection v ith the death of the Dewson whom tho prisoner was charged with killing was con cluded yesterday. The jury had returned a verdict of " Manslaughter" against some person unknown. They considered that there was not sufficient evidence so far to fix tho crime on any particular party. Cleg<j was before the Court on Monday charged wite this ofFonee, and was romnn dod until this morning to permit of his being present at tho inquest. Hie evidence taken by tho coroner was very voluminous, and was not in readiness to be presented to the Court. It would therefore bo necessary to have the accused remanded till Friday. Tho remand was granted accordingly.
