The Tung mystery, the case in which a Indy threw herself or was thrown from a railway carriage, has resulted in an open verdict, though, except for the perhaps accidental fact that there was a man's umbrella in the carriage which she occupied, all the evidence pointed to suicide. That she was a married woman who had conceived a violent passion for a man who was j not her husband, and that she was naturally a woman of high moral character who felt acutely the wrong she wax doing her husband, was proved beyond question and although a strong feeling was excited against the lover, it was obvious that he had no responsibility for the crime beyond his encouragement of the victim's fondness for him. Thoro was, however, just sufficient doubt in the case to justify the jury in the open verdict they returned. The succession of ghastly crimes which have filled the papers of late has been further added to this week by the discovery of the mutilated body of a girl in mill-stream neat Dover, with at present scarcely a clue to help the police to discover the murderer.
