THE NORTON TANGLE.
An Open Verdict.
SYDNEY, October 15. At the inquest on the body of Grohn, a witness testified thnt Morris, owing to his having been turned out of Norton's house, suggested to him that they should conspire against Norton, by stating he had killed Grohn. Norton, in evidence, denied that he Btnick Grohn. The latter came home drunk and fell down., and Morris dragged him upstairs to bed. The Coroner stated the evidence of Morris was unreliably and it was that of an accessory after the fact. In the absence of a more minute medical examination at the time of death, he did not think it possible to find the actual cause, and there was not sufficient evidence to say how the man came by hias death.
