POLICE INTELLIGENCE

LIVERPOOL-SATURDAY,

BEFJEE MR. W. EARLE

ClrAaol AGAINST A SAlL9R.—Caplaill Charles M'Don.
nell, commander of the James Baines, charged a sailor
named Charles Smith, belonging to that vessel, under
the following circumstances :—Mr. 131uck defended the
prisoner. The complainant said he charged the prisoner
with three offences—stealing a boat, desertion of the ship,
and refusing to do duty. In support of the two qrst
charges, the carain said the prisoner had signed articles
in Liverpool to go round with the ship. At Melbourne
he took the boat and escaped with it, and he was subse-
quently arrested, and sentenced to thirty days' imprison-
ment by the magistrates there. Mr. Bluck : Then he
has been punished for desertion, so the charge of felony
falls to the ground. Mr. Wybergh : The charge of
felony cannot he sustained ; and as for the desertion, he
has been punished already for it. The captain said the
man refused to do his duty. Mr. Wybergh : Was that
since he was discharged from the prison at Melbourne ?
yes, sir. In reply to Mr. Bluck, the captain said the full
term of imprisonment at Melbourne had not expired
when he took the prisoner out of jail, as the ship was
going to sea. He did not know if there was any wages
legally due to the prisoner or not. Mr. Muck contended
that the man must be discharged, as he had already been
punished for any offence he had committed. Mr.
Wybergh said the captain must show something done by
the prisoner after he left Melbourne with the ship, in
order to bring him within the operation of the act. The
captain said he wished for a remand until Monday, when
he would be prepared with evidence to sustain the case.
Mr. Bluck : You had him four and a half days in irons,
I believe ? Yes, I had. Mr. Earle : I shall remand the
case to Monday. The prisoner was remanded accord-

PLUNDER AT THE Doexs.—Edward Riley, Michael
Gallagher, and Thomas Garner, three dock labourers,
were charged with stealing a quantity of copper from the
Sandon Dock. It appeared that the prisoners were
engaged in carting away ballast from a vessel in the
dock, and, when leaving the gates, the police officer
beard some unusual noise in the carts, and, on searching,
be found a considerable quantity of copper that bad been
taken off a ship, concealed in the carts. The prisoners
said they were employed by another person to cart away
the ballast, and knew nothing of the copper. They were
remanded.
