INCITING TO MURDER.
YOUTH TURNS KING'S EVIDENCE. Press Association. PALMEBSTON N., November 3. In the Magistrate's Court, Charles James Coekery was committed for trial on charges of having attempted to procure two youths, Henry Joseph Lewis and Alfred Mervyn Capp, to murder Detective-Sergeant Quirke, and of having received goods stolen by Lewis and Capp. The latter turned King's evidence, and deposed that Coekery had paid them for the stolen goods, which had been stored in Coekery's livery stables. He had also offered them a reward if they would put a charge of gelignite into Quirke's bedroom and blow him up.
