A Coroner's inuuest was held at Air. John Buzacott's house. Emu Flats, on Monday (lltli), to investigate the orisui of a fire which had burut a Btack of hay belonging to Cpbb &'Ca Samuel Coleman, maildriyer, deposed— Went to the stack early in the morning of Saturday last and bejian cutting. Was accompanied by William Harris, Cobb's housekeeper, and was joined afterwards by Mr. AIcDiarmid. who' had sold the stack, and Hector Ross. Worked an hour and a half, when a man named Hickey arrived. He assisted in cutting he stack. About II a. in. sat down at the west end of the stack, and had something to eat and some ale, after which all had a smoke. After that finished the remainder of the portion they were cut ting, and, then sat 'down between 12 and 1 to reckon up the amount they had weiehed. While thus sitting the fire broke out about the middle of the cutting in the Btack. Could swear he was the ast man in the cutting at work, but others might have gone in without his seeing them. Neither he, AIcDiarmid, lJu/icott, or Ross were Bmoking at the time, Harris was dose to the cutting, and Hickey was sitting on the bale of chaff near Ross. They had had a bottle of gin, but Hickey was the only person worse for liquor, and he smoked once or twice about seven or eight yards from the stack. Could not say how tbe stack was set on fire. After hearing some fui^her evidence, the Jury, by their Foreman. Mr. W. Hitchgoz. returned this.verdict— ' The haystack was set fire to by some one of the party lighting a pipe, but there is not suffi cient evidence on whom to fix the guilt'

REPORT OF THE POLICE COMMISSION.

Subjoined we publish the full report of the Commission appointed by the Government to enquire into the state of the efficiency of the Police Force. Also a memorandum and addendum signed by three of the members, whose conclusions in some respects differ from the views of the majority who signed the report proper :—

Sir— We the undersigned, appointed under your letter of the 26th August last, as members of a Board ' To examine into the management and efficiency of the Metropolitan Police Force,' beg to report as follow :— ...

23. Several of the men made it a special grievance that Lance-corporal Leahey (an active man of intriguing spirit) has been unduly promoted, and that he was a man unworthy to be in the police force, because, amongst other reasons, he had introduced his brother-in-law, one Michael Hickey, into the force in the name of William Leahey and with forged testimonials. The Board would not have made any special examination into this matter, but Inspector Bee having caused the testimonials and Con stable Leahey's clearance from Western Australia to be placed before the Board, and the lance corporal to be in attendance on the 25th October, he was examined, and the testimonials and clearance inspected by the Board. We have no hesitation in saying that tho clearance has been added to and that the testimonials are forged. In two of them, professing respectively to be by a clergyman of the Church of England .and a Magistrate, occurs the same very peculiar .spelling of 'new' for 'knew,' and 'caracter*1 i or 'character;' and having examined Lance i-orporal Leakey's writing, wo believe these two and another produced to us— all written on similar paper— to be in his handwriting. These forgeries seem quite notorious in the force ; and we cannot place the slightest reliance on the word of either Leahey or his brother.

THE CASE OF LANCE CORPORAL LEAHY

... that Lance-Corporal Leahey had introduced his brother-in-law, William Leahey,' into the force as his own brother, whereas he had only married Leahey's sister, and his real name was Hickey, and not Leahey; ... which proved that Wm. Leahey was half-brother to the Lance-Corporal, by the same father but by a different mother; that Wm. Leahey passed under his mother's name of Hickey when he was in Western Australia, and resumed his own name when he came to this calony... has failed to clear, up... Forgery may consist not only in - writing out a fictitious document but also in altering one that is genuine. The report of the Commissioner refers not only to Hickey's testimonials but also to his clearance from Swan River... himself states that it passed through his hands on Hickey's arrival at Port Adelaide it is essential to the search ing enquiry which the... the evidence is overwhelming that Lance-Corporal Leahey had a guilty knowledge of the facts. It* must be= borne In mind that he and Hickey were at Swan River together; that he came to Adelaide first, and having secured a post in the Force he was afterwards joined by the other... and secondly, what was the motive of Hickey's change ,of name... it has been proved that Wm. Leahey (or Hickey) is half-brother to the Lance-Corporal... (on and on)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

18/1/1873 LETTERS TO ED - LANCE CORPORAL LEAHEY.

The father of Corporal Leahey married the mother of Hickey whilst the latter was an infant, after whick the two boys Leahey and Hickey were brought up together aa brothers, under the name of Leahey. This name Hickey retained until he arrived in Western Australia, when he took his own name (Hickey), but when leaving that colony for South Australia he found he could only get his disoharge from there in the name in which he arrived— viz., Leahey— consequently he again assumed that name. ; 'I have been credibly informed that, although Leahey and Hickey were for a short period in Western Australia at the same time, they never met there; that when Hickey left for Adelaide he did not bring with him the notorious teati* monials...

The ground was soft, otherwise the injury to the lad might have been very serious, but even E3 it was his legs were much hurt.

FIRING A REVOLVER IN THE GAIETY. London, February 4

Alfred John Hickey has been arrested on a charge of firing a revolver in the gallery of the Gaiety Theatre last night. The defendant was brought up at Bow Street court today, and remanded for medical examination. An incoherent letter was found in his pocket. It mentions the names of Detective Sergeant Joseph Hampton aud Dr. Cleland, tbo Colonial Surgeon of South Australia.

[The name Dr. 'Cleveland' was mentioned in our telegram, but evidently meant Dr. W. L. Cleland, Colonial Surgeon and Resident Medical Officer of the Parkside Lunatic Asylum, and enquiries which a Register representative made of that gentleman on Saturday afternoon throw some light on Hickey's past history. On turning up the records Dr. Cleland found that Alfred John Hickey, described as a labourer, was committed to the North-terrace Lunatic Asylum, Adelaide, on February 21, 1896, by Mr. W. Johnstone, S.M., at Port Adelaide, having been previously examined by Dr. Toll. In the following March he was removed to the Parkside Asylum, and was discharged on August 23, 1897, apparently cured. Ho had scar on his head, which, he said, had been injured.

Dr. Cleland mado an entry at tho time— 'Intellect appeared weakened, and he kept r*|-eating same thins* and always wanted head to be examined.' Ho used to nay that ho heard voices and that ho was not resitonsiblo for his thoughts. Hickey further stated that his grandmother, Mrs. Porter, was also in the Parkside Asylum. There is an inmate of the institution named Mary Porter, aged seventy-one years, a widow, who was living at Rosewater in 1895. She is still at Parkside. and has a son-in-law James Hickey, residing in Elizabeth street Rosewater, who is the father of the man referred to in our telegram. Before be went to the North-terrnce Asylum Hickey was under treatment at the Port Augusta Hospital. He is twenty-three years of age.

The following is a copy of a letter written by Hickey during bis confinement at Parkside to Police Inspector Doyle. It is dated 11th May, Friday, no year:—

'Dear, Sir. I was charged at the Port Adelaide Police court, for braking a picture and sent to the North Terris Lunatic Asylumn for Lunnacy and I was there for some time. And now I am at Parkside Lunatic Asylm and I hear voices tring to accuse me of what I know nothing at all about and what I can make they are galvanic shocking me for what I know nothing at all about. an'J trine to accuso 1110 for what I know I am Innocent of.

26/5/1903 - PERSONAL FROM LONDON

Thomas Brown, a general laborer, apparently about 40 years old, who stands re manded by the Thames Police Court magife trate on a charge of having attempted to murder four German seamen on April 2 by shooting at them in a common lodging house, and also having attempted to kill a police sergeant, seems to be subject to many extraordinary delusions. No possible reason can be given for his attempt to kill the seamen, all of whom he wounded, except that he suddenly developed homicidal mania in a very acute form. A document found in his possession discloses the fact that the man is certainly not in his right mind. It runs thus:-

"On board the ship 100. Dear sir- This is to certify that I am worked on from Australia, Adelaide wireless telegraph, worked by mind reaiders. Whenever I go to a music-hall they force me to stare at the players. Well, I can not tell them about it, because they don't know about it. There is one artist in particular, by the name Gipsy Woolf, that could explain. I also must confess to a murder committed by me in Dorset-street, Spitalsfield. A person by name Annie Austin. I think detectives are after me, for I have seen a few. I cannot stand it longer, and I would not like to see Mr. Austin get the blame, which he once did, and was acquitted. My real name is Alfred Hickey, Elizabeth-street, Rosewater, at Port Adelaide, Australia. That also the Levey Sisters; and I would just like them to make enquiries about this wireless telegraph and mind-readers.

There was to-night in Whitechapel a public, the Princess Alice. I was played up by them, and when any person asks me about them they make me dizzy, so as not to take any notice. I wish these people would try and find out for them selves by making any enquiries of any Australian detectives. Sergeant detectives. Cardiff.”

In the course of the Police Court proceedings last Friday the prisoner, addressing the magistrate, said, "Do you know any thing of wireless telegraphy?" Mr. Mead-I do not. The Prisoner-Well, do you mind having the Röntgen rays put on me, and you will then find the needle? Mr. Mead-I don't think that material. The Prisoner-The Röntgen, rays can prove what 1 mean; but I don't want you to try and make me a lunatic.”

The prisoner was remanded for medical examination. Pos- sibly the man does, hail from Australia. Certainly it is a curious coincidence that in the South Australian Directory for 1902 I find "James Hickey" credited with living in Elizabeth-street, Rosewater

27/5/1903 - A PORT ADELAIDE LUNATIC IN A LONDON POLICE COURT.

"Thomas Brown, a general laborer, appa *i rently about 40 years old, who stands remanded by the Thames Police Court magistrate on a charge of having attempted to murder four German seamen on April 2 by shooting at them in a common lodging house, and also with having attempted to kill a police sergeant, seems to be subject to very extraordinary, delusions. No pos- sible reason can be given for his attempt to kill the seamen, all of whom he wound- ed, , except that he suddenly developed homicidal mania in a very acute form."

This is an extract from our London cor- respondent's letter, which was published in The Advertiser on Tuesday morning, and we have ascertained that Alfred James Hickey, alias Thomas Brown, is known to' the Port Adelaide police. His father (Mr. James Hickey) resides in Elizabeth-street, Rosatala ward. There can be little doubt as to Alfred James Hickey's insanity, for in February, 1896, he was brought before the Port Adelaide Police Court on a charge of lunacy, and committed to the Parkside Asylum. After his release he joined a vessel ftt Port Ade- laide and cleared out of the State. He suf- fered from hallucinations of the kind men- tioned m our correspondent's letter.

A communication and a photograph have been received by the local police from Scotland Yard, and the information sought for by the home authorities concerning the man will be forwarded imme- diately. Mr. James Hickey, of Rosatala ward, has recognised, in the photo the likeness of his son's features.

7/2/1907 - LOCAL COURT-POET ADELAIDE. Monday, May 6.

John Hickey, laborer, of Rosewater, versui J. Pcmeroy, laborer, of Port Adelaide. Claim for £9 19/. The plaintiff alleged that he suffered damage by/ the defendant wrongly depriving ' him i of'one bbjrck-and-white cow and a calf, the pro- '. perty of the plaintiff, by refusing to give then* up on demand. The defendant pleaded not guilty* declaring that the cow and calf were not the property of the plaintiff, as'alleged. Mr. S. H. Skipper appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. R. Cruickshank 'for the defendant. The plaintiff said he bought a black-and-white tow in November last. He took it to the de- fendant's property the same day to graze. Ir »na left there until five months ago. when he was ' informed by the defendant's wife that the owner had claimed it. The defendant himself said the people who bred the cow would know it, and would be the only ones to settle for it. While ¡ the cow was grazing on the defendant's place it i carted -on 'April 14 last. It was then taken i away by Mr. Hunt. The defendant refused to give | the cow to the witness. Annie Philp deposed tnat ehe sold a black-and-white lS-months-oid heifer ! to Mr. Hickey last November. She saw the cow | atout five months ago on the defendant's pre- mises. In company with Mr- Hickey the wit- ness went to the defendant's place anoui three weeks ago, and the plaintiff asked for his cow. George Philps said that his' mother'sold a cow to Mr. Hickey atout November. 1905. He recog- nised the cow in the plaintiff's possession on the defendant's property. The defendant said he had been grazing cuttle for 25 years. The cow claimed by the plaintiff belonged to Mr. Hunt. It was -cent to lum in 1904, and he had seen it every night since. He remembered Mr. Hickey's heifer coming. The two differed in size. On one occisión the plaintiff took Mrs. Hunt's heifer home with a mob. and it came back the next morning. He still had Mr. Hickey's heifer on hi? premises, which he was willing to give up on payment for grazing. On April 15 the feet» had been paid up to date. He handed the raw over to Mr. Hunt last Sundav week. Mrs. Pomeroy said she remembered a black and white heifer being sent down to their paddocks bv Mrs. Hunt. She *aw the cattle in the paddock! daily. Emin Pomeroy, son of the defen- dant, said he remembered bringing some cattle home from Mrs. Hunt'« in No- vember, 1905, for grazing. He looked after the cattle. He remembered Hickey's heifer coining down to the paddocks. The two heifers differed in appearance. Mrs. E. E. Hunt said she sent a h'ifer down to Mr. Pomeroy when it was about three months old. She saw the animal every few days. Mr. Pomeroy po'nted out to her- self and Mr." Hunt Mr. Hickey's heifer, which was «maller than hers and had not so much white about the body. Thomas Charles Hunt said he vUitci his heifer every three weeks. Albert Walker said while employed at Pomcroy*s place he had driven cattle to Mr. nunt's place. II: saw Mr. Hickey *ä heifer al Mr. Pomeroy's last Sunday. Verdict for the defendant.
