THE CORONER'S INVESTIGATION, &e. &e., dee Ever since the flight of Baker on tho night of the Stan- wix Hall tragedy, the public has been in a constant s/Btate of excitement as to the result of the officers’ labors eraployed in ferreting out the biding place of the fugi- ytive. Days went by, but no definite information could be obtained aa to the whereabouts of Baker. The ax- ‘thorities, as a general thing, seemed to view the matter coldly, and theresult was, as all know, an entire failure to capture the fugitive. Judge Stuart, who has been watching the movements of the police with a great deal Of interest, came to the conclusion that some bold plan should be formed and acted upon, to discover the place of Baker's concealment, which he had reason to believe was not far distant from New York. Accordingly, he sot himeelf to work, and, with the assistance of one or two confidential officers, was soon upon the track. A aum- ber of persons whom the Juége bad reason to suppose knew something of the whereabouts of Baker, wore ar- rested, brought before him and what information could be obtained from them relative to the matter was se- cured, The baggage of Baker was discovered, anda secret mark was put on the bottom of his trunk, so ag to render it recognizable to the authorities in all the principal citi of the Union. This piece of work was telegraphed to the authorities in Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Albany, and all the principal cities out Wert, which would render Baker’s presence plainly liscerdible, no matter what disguise he might assume n travelling. Still believing that Baker was concealed nor near the city, great exertions were made to dis- sover his hiding place; and accordingly spies were placed 1pon the trailof some of the fugitive’s most intimate riends, A secret court of inquiry was held in the udge’s private chambera, where a number of policemen od pugilists underwent a rigid examination at the tanis of the Court, From the testimony taken on this ecasion, it appeared that when Baker entered Lyng’s lace im Broadway, ecrner of Canal street, he was at- ended by a physician, wko probed his wounds and pro- ounced him out of danger, ard fit for travelling; that © had deen aided in his escape by a Councilman and @ oliceman of the Eighth ward, and a number of the fancy nen of the lower part of the city; that while Baker’s ccomplice was arrested at Lyng’s place at 3 o'clock in he morning, the alleged principal was permitted to ro- ain inthe house until daybreak, when he left the remises unobstructed; that by a ruse those police ‘ho were really in earnest about the arrest of Baker, ere drawn off, and the offender permitted to escape, rst having been disguised in one of the parties’ coats. It alleged that he departed from Lyng’s along with Coun- a Kerrigan, Daniel Linn, one of the Kighth ward lice, detailed at the Mayor's office, Harvey Young, psege Burns and John Morrissey. The party, it is al- » Went up Canal street to Centre, up Centre to jalker, up Walker to the Bowery, and up the Bowery to © Third avenue, and from thence to Fatty Florence's 1blic house, at Macomb’s Dam, where Baker was con- aled for thatday; that Kerrigan, Youag and Linn turned to the city and proceeded to Jonny Lyng’s ace; that on the recond night after he arrived a° scomb’s Dam, Baker was taken away ina close car and brought back to the city again; that he sto; chat ight at the house of oud Brady, io Riteabeth, sect, but bis friends becoming alarmed for his safety, ey had him removed to s bouse in Wooster street. re the fugitive remained for atew days, until due pre- rations had been made by his friends for his final depar- ire from the city, A meeting of his friends took place re, and it was resolved to preseat Baker with a tse to defray bis expenses, which of course would tbe light. A false pair of whiskers and moustache re procured, and everything that ‘could be done to nid arrest was promptly executed. A milk wagon with hs, &o., placed in it was conveyed, from Jersey y, as it was their intention to smngzle Baker ‘ossto Jersey asa milkman. Accordingly, Cg? tate pg in preparation, on the night of Tuesday, ¢ e bth t., Baker was oonveyed to Jersey City, by « well n livery stable proprietor in that city, wio owned wagon and invented the plan to farther Baker’ Moneta ry, the fugitive was tal an who aocompanied bim, that day and night.

The man who brought er to Jersey City, procured his admittance into the of another friend of his, residing in the auburbs of town. Baker took up his quarters during brief time that was allowed him to stay in While here he was visited by his from New York on several occasions, who soled shim, and bade him be of cheer, angerments wero being perfected from his im jiate removal from the United States. The wounds he received in the affray at Stanwix Hall deca! troublesome and painfal, particularly the one ia his omen, which swelled alarmingly, so much so as to xe him believe that the bal! was still in the wound, b the doctor who attended him at Lyng’s had red him tothe contrary.

All these men, ‘with the exception of the latter, were committed to prison in ‘lefault of $10,000 bail each, on charge of being accessories, after the fact. In the possession of some of the parties arrested were found ktters from Baker, while he was lying concealed in New Jersey, Pad hes show, evidently, that those with whom he had m corresponding had been his frequent visitert during his brief stay in Jerseg City. Judge Stuart is entitled to a it deal of redlt for the untiring zeal he manifested in endeavoring to arrest Raker ; and for the fearless manner in which he caused the arrest of those whom he had reasoa to suppose aided and abetted in the excape of one charged with the killing of a human being deserves not a little praise, THE CORONER’S INVESTIGATION. FOURTH DAY. Before Coroner Hilton. At the opening of the inquest yesterday morning Coroner Hilton informed the jury that he had caused the arrest ofahackman named Lively, whom he had reason to suppose knew something definite in regard to the man that drove Baker and his party off in the carriage; also that be had received a number of communications from parties, without any signature, who intended to give him some information respecting those who would, if thoy were placed on the stand as witnesses, reveal important matters to the jury; tbat upon his subponaing these persons they all seemed to know nothing about the case. He wished to state that any persons who were able to give information need not be afraid to give him their names, as he should not make them public unless he deemed it of the greatest importance. ‘The first witness put on the stand, was Leon Oliver, who being duly sworn, deposed that he rexided at 99 Laurens street; [know something adout the first dis. turbance: I left Poole’s pla ly im the evening, along with him and Mr. Janeway, and started for Stan: wix .
