POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

BOW-STREET.

RIOTOUS PAUPERS.---ix stout robust-looking young
women named Harriet Reeves, Ellen Binnaird, Eliza Wal-
lace, Frances Webster, Ellen Shine, and Mary Ann
M'Carthy, were charged with creating a riot in St. Giles
Workhouse, and assaulting the nurses, porter, and police.
John Shugar, the porter, said the prisoners were
amongst the most refractory inmates of the workhouse,
and for a year or more had caused the whole staff of the
establishment great trouble. Last night they left their
sleeping ward in a body, paraded the house in very limited
attire—(laughter)—and finally took up their quarters in a
ward reserved for other inmates.
One of the defendants—Yes, because the one we were in
was a reg'lar hot 'tin.
Witness continued- .The nurses tried to eject them, upon
which they p unced upon one of the attendants, and pitched
into her right and left. (Laughter.) He was called in to
assist in quelling the disturbance, when the prisoners began
to call upon the others who were in the ward to stand up
for their rigors. (Laughter.) Some of the paupers soon
showed a disposition to aid the girls, and the result was a
general row and riot ensued, during which a great portion
of the clothing was torn, and a scene of the utmost disorder
presented itself. The police were ultimately called in, and
it was only after a desperate encounter that the defendants
—the ringleaders in the mutiny—were secured, and taken
to the station house. All the time the riot lasted the pri-
soners used language of a bad description, and kept con-
stantly calling up their adherents to give it to the peelers
—(laughter)—and stick out for comfort. (Laughter.)
Martha Welding, one of the nurses, confirmed the state.
ment of the porter, and said she should have been literally
torn to pieces—(laughter)--had not the women or, more
properly speaking, furies been overcome by the police.
Police-constable, F 156, said when he was called into the
workhouse he found the six defendants parading the yard
in the most airy costume—(laughter)—arm in arm. They
were making use of bad language and defying and threaten-
ing the authorities. They then shouted out "here's the
crusher, let's give it him," which they certainly did in most
approved pugilistic style. It was with great difficulty he
secured the prisoners.
' ' '

Mr. Henry asked the women what they had to say in
answer to the charge ?

One of the girls, in a most impudent manner, replied—
" Nothing; we're all guilty and as bad as one another, and
no mistake." (Laughter.)
Mr. Henry said the conduct of the prisoners was most
disgraceful, and he should fine them 40s. each, or in default
send them to prison for a month.
One of the girls, on leaving the dock, said, " It's all
right, I can do a month on my head."

BETTING AT MANCHESTER, THURSDAY.

For Liverpool Cup Barchettina came in great force, and
6to 1 was taken freely. For this event Oakapple still re •
mained firm, but almost everything else had a shaky ap-
pearance. Bto 1 was freely offered against Joey Jones, and
during the day 100 to 7 was laid against The Knave, which
price, however, was reduced to 12 to 1 (offered) at the close.
Imperatrice was friendless. 100 to 6 was booked once or
twice about Carisbrook, but later on 100 to 4 was laid. 100
to 8 was taken as often as it could be obtained about Fan-
tail. For the Goodwood Stakes the operations were almost
confined to Anfield. Isoline occupied a similar position in
the Goodwood Cup betting, and 700 to :00 was booked in
one bet about her. Closing prices :
