On Wednesday, at Worship Street, London, Albert
Gladwin siis..lames Wilson, Robert Inwood, F. Chapman,
was charged, on remand, before Mr. Hannay, with
having obtained divers sums of money by false and
fraudulent pretences, and with having conspired with
others not in custody to defraud divers of Her Majesty's
liege subjects. Mr. Blanchard Woutner appeared for the
Treasury. Mr. Woutner said he should complete the care
to-day, and after proving that the prisoner was not in
• position to advance money—in fact, that he was living
in • roots for which he paid la 6sl. • week—he would ask
for prisoner's committed—Mr. E. J. Rowley, keeping the
South Western Hotel, Bournemouth, deposed that in
April last he saw an advertisement offering money on
note of hand only at 7 per cent , the advertiser's name
being given as C. Kempton, and the address, 11S, Globe
Road, E. Witness having applied for • loan of 1150,
received the letter (form of which has been published)
asking for remittance of 10.. 6d. for inquiry fem. Witness
sent a cheque i produced) for that norm and the cheque
was paid. The next letter informed him that the
inquiry was satisfactory and the loan would be granted.
Remittance was, however, requested of the first year's
interest and cost of bill stamp, amounting to .ClO 7. 64.
before the loan was sent. Witoest sent a cheutie for f.jj
17$ (having deducted the 10.. 6d) and crossed it, but the
cheque was returned enclosed in a letter of excurj, a.
follow.:

" W, Globe Road, London, E, April 10, lfi?fi."Wr K 3.
Rowley. Dear Sir,—Yours to band, with encloer,roq In
reply. I beg to say that since being made • (Pape some
time back by a Mr. John Haverne, of Albion Street,
Leeds, who forwarded a cheque for £l9 135. for interest,
ec., on a loan or £lOO, on receipt of which I despatched
the advance, and in due course found the cheque
worthless, and the borrower, on inquiries, ishiconded,
from that time I have made it • rule to receive all
paymenta, interest, or instalments, by P.O. ordera lam
far from insinuating anything with respect to you as to
your loan fides (of which I am convinced), but it is an
indispensable condition to my granting an advance—l
mean payments by P.O. orders. I therefore return
your cheque, and must request you to remit rue a P.O.
order for .1:9 17s. payable at the money order office,
Combat. London, as already advised, on receipt of which
I will send on the £l5O in Bank notes with the stamped
promissory note. If I hear from you with the post 0.. e
order on Monday nett. I will, to accomsnoe you,
although on the Rank Holiday, remit you the mid £l5O,
in order that you may receive same first or second OOR on
Tuesday, the day you require it. I must ask you to
accept an apology for my not accepting your cheque as
payment, for the mle reason given above Awaiting your
reply, I ant, dear sir, yours truly, C. Kirrrot.
you prefer bank notes for the .Cl5O of
particular values, and will so advise me, I shall be moat
happy to send you accordingly.'
Witness did send a post-office order for the amount,
but never received the £1.50, nor got his money
returned.
The prisoner was committed for trial, on mune six cases,
to the Central Criminal Court
