The Broome Murder.--The three men, Chas. Hagen, Pablo Marquez, and Simeon Espada, who are under sentence of death for the murder of the traveller Mark Liebglid, are giving the prison officials very little trouble. Mr. A. S. Roe. the Police Magistrate of Perth, visited the gaol yesterday, at the request of the condemned man Marquez, and had a long conversation in the Manila language with both Marquez and Espada. Years ago, when in Roebourne, Roe was acquainted with Marquez, who was fairly successful at that time in some of his business ventures. Mr. Roe was with the condemned man for nearly two hours, but, although both condemned men spoke freely, they made no qualification of the evidence which they gave at the trial. Each accused the other of being guilty of the murder, but both were equally emphatic in their assertion that Hagen participated in the crime.
