THE WORST MAN IN LONDON.—Francis Jones, a hump-backed man, was charged before Mr. Knox with the following disorderly conduct : Samuel Yeo, 27 C It, said that about one o'clock that morning he was near the County Fire Office, when he heard the prisoner using very threatening language towards some of the unfortunates there, and as he refused to go away, and made use of abusive language, he took him into custody. Mr. Knox asked whether the prisoner was known? Barns, the gaoler of the court, said he had known the prisoner for sixteen years, and when he first knew him he was a bully at a brothel. The pri soner had been charged at that court with following females and getting money from them by threats ; he had been charged with stealing a watch, and also with attempting to murder a female by cutting her throat because she would not give him money. The prisoner said that for the last offence he suffered two years' imprisonment. Barns said that on the 10th of last month the prisoner was charged at that court with attempting to extort money from and as.saultng a gentleman. He had repeatedly been at that court, and he was the worst man in London. In answer to Mr. Knox, the constable sail there was no chance of getting any of the women threat ened last night in attendance, as they were afraid Come. Pool, the assistant gaoler, said the prisoner once received nine weeks' imprisonment for a series of assaults on women near the County Fire Office. Mr. Knox said that as none of the women were in attendance his hands were tied as far as they were concerned. For the disorderly conduct the prisoner would have to pay 405., or a month. WESTMINSTER. DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT SER VANTS.—AIfred Blake and George Collins, two big, powerful men, were brought before Mr. Self; charged with the most disgraceful conduct. William Oliver, 384 B, said that at half-past three yesterday afternoon he was passing through Princes-street, IVestminster, when - he met the two defendants. Blake immediately said, " Here is a Bobby," and then proceeded to use most filthy language. Witness told him to go away, when Blake immediately attacked him right and left about the face and heal. Complainant struck him on the shoulders and back of the bead with a truncheon. At this time Collins came up and held complainant, while Blake was striking him, and also tried to take his truncheon from him. Blake was rescued by him, but two other constables coming up he was retaken. ➢lr. Selfe—What was their condition ? Complainant—Blake was drunk ; the other had been drinking, but knew full well what he was doing. Al: Morgans, police-constable, said that when he came up Blake struck him several blows on the side of the head and kicked him repeatedly. An M.P.'s butler also gave evidence at full length. E[e said that the attack was most disgraceful, and ,he conduct of the policeman entitled to much com- m endation. Mr. Selfe said there were other names of disin terested persons on the police-sheet who had volun teered their testimony for the constables, and he found the defenlents were both watchmen at Somer set House. Blake said he was drunk and very sorry; the other denied the charge. Mr. Selfe —the only question on my mind is whether I ought not to &Ind you for trial, but I will take into consideration that you will both lose your situations. It is most disgraceful to find per sons conducting themselves in this way—especially Government servants, and the language used in broad daylight in such a public place is a great aggravation of the offence. Blake you are com mitted for two months:without a fine ; Collins, you are fined 405., or 14 days. Blake—Pray put a fine upon me. I have a wife and three children. Mr. Selfe—You should have thought of them before. COLODI IAL (10 V Zit lethal Columbia, 6 per cent., 1872.... • L o 1895 .. lan.Gov.6 p.c.Ja.&Jul) 1877-84 )o. 6 p. a. I•'eb. & Aug )o. 5 p. a.

THE AUTUMN HANDICAPS. THAMES. THE BIRD-LIME THlEF.—Thomas Bush, aged 28 years, and described as an anchor smith, of No. 10, St. Dunstan-road, Stepney, but who is known to the police as the bird-lime thief, was brought up on remand charged with stealing £2 Os. from the Bur dett Tavern, Burdett-road, Limehouse. On Monday afternoon last Mr. 11. S. Love, the landlord of the Burdett Tavern, left his bar for a few minutes. At that time there was silver to the amount of £4 on the shelves in the bar. A communication was made to Mr. Love, which induced him to leave his house and run after the prisoner, who was overtaken by him. He charged him with robbing his till. The prisoner said nothing, but he put his hand behind him, and a quantity of silver fell on the ground. Mr. Love afterwards received 18s, which the by standers picked up. A few shillings was taken from the prisoner. Mr. Love missed 455. from his shelves. A boy, named George Parsons, saw the prisoner remove the silver, piled in heaps of £1 each, from the shelves by means of a stick, the end of which was covered with bird-lime. He called the landlord, and the prisoner fled with his pocket full of stolen silver. Jonathan Goodburn, 163 K, said that he found a box :containing bird-lime on the prisoner, who had lately come out of Maidstone Gaol, where he had been confined for a similar offence. 'The former robbery was committed in a public-house in Plum stead, and by means of birdlime. The prisoner was committed for trial.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Halstead on Monday—Mr. J. Brewster in the chair. An abstract in the report appeared in The Sun. The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, stated that a dispute between the company and Mr. C. B. Sperling had been referred to their respective soli citors, the result being the acceptance by the com pany of £382 in discharge of their claims against Mr. Sperling. With respect to the revenue balance of £ll2 for the past half-year, the directors pro posed to expend it in repairs at the Haverhill, lied ingham, and Colne stations ; the balance would have been larger but for the payment out of revenue of landowners' interest and the secretary's salary. With different rates in connection with the Great Eastern system the company would be in a far bet ter position, and the directors were attempting to secure this by arbitration, Captain Tyler, of the Board of Trade, having been appointed mutually by the two companies to decide upon the rates and facilities for traffic. Mr. CARDINALL suggested a renewed application to Parliament for running powers over the Great Eastern Railway to Cambridge. After a brief discussion, the report was adopted, and the proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. iIEXIIADI AND ALLENDALE. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Allendale on Saturday; Mr. W. B. Beau mont, M.P., in the chair. The report, which was read by Mr. Bewick, stated that the capital account showed that the total expenditure had been £70,094 and the total receipts £72,661. The total amount of revenue was /1,034. The report was adopted, and the CHAIRMAN boped that they would be able to open the line for passenger traffic to Cattou-road station by the close of the year. The meeting was made special, and the necessary powers were given to the directors to apply to the Board of Trade for an extension of time to make the second section of the line. PEMBROKE AND TENBY. The report of the directors states that the revenue from the line continued most satisfactory, showing an increase of £1,351 over that of the correspond ing six months of last year. They congratulated the shareholders on the extension of the line from \Vhitland to Carmarthen, and the consequent con nection of the district by the narrow-gauge system with the northern and midland counties. The line had been worked by Messrs. Davies and Roberts in a satisfactory manner during the past six months. The directors proposed a dividend for the past half year at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum upon the ordinary :and preference shares of the company, payable on the 29th inst.

The follow*, apposred Iti oft' Latest Edition 01 ylntsrday syning:— This afternoon Joseph Goss, the pugilist, was placed before Sir Thomas Henry, charged on a warrant with intent to commit a breach of the peace. The prisoner seemed to have recovered to a great extent the effects of intoxication. He is a bigger man every respect than Allen, and pre seats a far more formidable appeatauce. Ho was dressed in a light brown suit of clothes, made up in a very "fast" style, and his hair was closely cropped. On being placed before the chief magis trate he put his forefinger to his forehead, stroked his short hair, and made his bow. Mr. Humphries (the clerk) to the prisoner —Is your name Joseph Goss ? Goss—Yes it is. Sir T. HenrY—hspector Silverton holds the war rant under which the prisoner has been arrested, so he will now give his evidence. Inspector George Silverton said—l went to the Westminster-bridge -road this morning about half past ten, and there found the prisoner in the street. I went up to him and said, " Goss, I want to speak to you." He replied, " Very well." Sir T. Henry—Did he know you ? Inspector Silverton—Yes, Sir Thomas. I then took him a little distance off and read the war fan: over to him, which charged him with being about to meet the prisoner Allen, and to commit a breach of the peace. On concluding the reading of the warrant Goss said, " I don't know what it means. I was never going to fight." Sir T. Henry to Inspector Silverton—Do you know him to be the person mentioned in the war rant? Inspector Silverton—l know him to be the man matched to fight Henry Allen for £2OO asile and the championship. Sir T. Henry (to Goss)—You have heard what the witness says. What answer have you to make to the charge? G033-I was not engaged in a prize fight. Sir T. Henry—No, not actually engaged, hut it was generally known that you were about to Le engaged in a prize fight. Go,s—No, not to my knowledge. Sir T. Henry—You don't mean to say that ? Goss—Yes I do. I never put no money down for the stakes. Sir T. Henry—Bat others might do so for you. Are you not the champion prize tighter ? Goss—No, sir, I'm not. - Inspector Tanner —The fight, Sir 'Thomas, was to see who was to be the champion. Sir T. Henry—But does not one of them hold what is called the belt? Inspector Silverton—No, sir ; no one has held the belt since Torn Saycrs. Sir T. Henry—Are there any porsons in attari ance who offer themselves as ban._ Inspector Silverton—Yes, two—Mr. Tupper and Mr. Vesey. Sir T. Henry—Mr. Tapper, you have heard it stated that Goss is one of the men that was about to engage hi a prize fight. Are you now willing to become surety for him ? ➢lr. Tupper—Yes, sir, quite willing. Sir Thomas Henry—The Legislature is deter mined to put down prize -fighting, and I wish to impress it upon Inspectors Tanner and Silverton that it is their duty to take care that any peizon known to be about to take part in one that they are at once to apply for warrants for their appre hension, which will be at once granted. Sc deter mined is the Legislature as to the propriety of putting it down that special clauses have been embodied in an act of Parliament, making it penal on the part of the railway companies for assisting in any way in conveying rersons to a prize fight. In the other case, that of Allen, I directed that he skould find two sureties for his good behaviour and keep the peace to all her Majesty's subjects for the period of twelve months. Are you, Mr. Tupper, willing to become bail for the prisoner in the sum of £5OO ? Mr. Tupper—Yes, sir, I am. Sir T. Henry —Are you, Mr. Vesey ? Mr. Vesei—yes, sir. I believe Goss will keep his word. Sir T. Henry, to Inspector Silverton—You know both the persons offering themselves as bail for the prisoner ? Inspector Silverton —Yes, Sir Thomas ; both are highly respectable men, and there can be no objec tion to them as bail. Sir T. Henry—Now, Goss, before you go, let me advise you at the expiration of the twelve months not to think of again engaging in a prize fight. It will most certainly be prevented, and severe punishment will then be the result if you are again brought before me, for I will not take bail on any future occasion, but deal as severely with the matter as I am enabled to do by the law of the land. Goss—l shall never engage in any prize-fight. Sir T. lienry—l am glad to hear it. Goss—l hope that nothing worse will ever happen in settling grievances in this country. Sir T. lieury—Ah, we won't go into that now. Mr. Vesey, of the Duke of Cornwall, Cornwall road, and Mr. Tupper, of Webber-row, Westmin ster, then entered into the required sureties of £5OO, and Goss in his own recognisances for the same amount. ALLEN'S BAIL. Mr. Abrams—Sir Thomas, on the part of Allen I have to ask you whether you will accept the per sons who offer themselves as bail for Allen ? I be• lieve the inquiry of Inspector Silverton has been quite satisfactory. Inspector Silvertoa—Yes, I have received such a communication from Manchester which renders unnecessary any opposition to Mr. Brown as bail. Sir T. Henry—Very well, then, if the two per sons named, Mr. Brown and Mr. Longhorn, will come forward and state their willingness to become bail for Allen, I will send to the House of Deten tion directions for his immediate attendance here. In about half an hour Allen and his bail arrived at the court. Sir T. Henry—Are you willing, Mr. Brown, to become bail in the sum of £5OO for twelve months for Allen ? Mr. Brown—Yes, sir. Sir T. Ilenry—And you, Mr. Llugham ? Lingham—Ves, sir. Sir T. Henry—Now, Allen, I hope thAt you are aware that prize fighting is illegal. Allen—Yes, sir. The required forms having been cotnplet,A, Goss and Allen left the Court in company with their sureties and friends.
