SERIOUS CHARGE.

ATTEMPTING TO PROCURE MURDER.

Palmerston N., Nov. 3,

At the Magistrate’s Court, Charles James Cookery was committed for trial on charges of having attempted to procure two youths— Henry Joseph Lewis and Alfred Mervyn Capp —to murder DetectiveSergeant Qnirke, also receiving goods stolen by Lewis and Capp. The latter turned King’s evidence, and deposed that Cookery had paid them for the stolen goods, which had been stored in Cookery’s livery stables. He had also offered them a reward if they put a charge of gelignote under Quirke's bedroom to blow him up.
