The man who committed the assault on Annie Farmer on Wednesday morning at a common lodging-house in George-street, Spitalfields, has not yet been captured. It is now believed that the wound to Farmer's throat was not made with a sharp instrument; also, that a quarrel arose between the pair respecting money, as, when the woman was at the station, some coins were found concealed in her mouth. The authorities appear to be satisfied that the man has no connexion with the recent murders, and expect that he will shortly surrender himself into their hands.
