London, England, 1855-01-05 00:00:00

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JANUARY 5, 1855.

near the stable be heard a shuffling noise which appeared
to proceed from the privy adjoining. The noise was
repeated, and witness called out, " Who is there ?" A
man answered bim, " Oh, it's only a bobby." (Laugh-
ter.) Believing that it was a policeman he did not take
any more notice of the noise, but went into the stable
and lighted a candle to go about his work.
Thomas Arnold, son to last witness, said he went into
the privy adjoining the stable at 7 o'clock on the same
morning, when he found a pair of black worsted gloves
such as worn by police constables. They were covered
with feathers and a pair of kid gloves were inside of
them. Witness took them to his mistress.

Charles Enry, coachman to Alfred llosslyn, Esq.,
Camberwell terrace, adjoining the premises of the pro-
secutix, said about 20 minutes to 1 on Thursday after-
noon, the 14th ult., he picked up the head and portion
of the neck of a grey goose on the lawn. He had heard
of a goose being stolen, and he took the head to Miss
Bates, who identified it.
_ _

Mr: John Lund, superintendent of the P division •f
the metropolitan police, said that the gloves in question
were shown to him on Thhrsday morning, the 14th ult.
They were covered with feathers, and had kid gloves
inside of them. He received information of the rob-
bery, and went to the two constables on the beat and
the adjoining one. He afterwards proceeded to the pri-
soner's house with Sergeant Quinnear, when his wife
opened the door and admitted them. The prisoner
came up from the kitchen, when witness entered to
speak to him. Feathers were at the time adhering
to his waistcoat and trowsers. Witness noticed
hi 3 great coat hanging up covered with feathers
also. He then asked the prisoner where his
gloves were ? He replied in his hat. Witness
took bis hat down and looked in it, but there were no
gloves. The prisoner then said he had a pair with kid
Hgloves inside, which he placed there to keep his hands
warm. Sergeant Quinnear then went downstairs, when
witness called out to him to look for the goose. The
prisoner said he had a goose, but it had been given to
him some.days ago. Quinnear brought a goose upstairs,
when he told the prisoner that he must consider himself
in his custody for stealina it. The prisoner had been in
the police force about three months, having joined in
August last.

George Quinnear, police sergeant No. 1 P, said he ac-
companied his superintendent to the prisoner's house,
between 10 and 11 on Thursday morning, the 14th ult.
The prisoner's fingers and clothes were covered with
grey goose feathers. The superintendent asked him
what time he came off duty. He replied 5 o'clock, and
that the gloves were in his hat. There were no gloves
there. Witness searched the prisoner's house, and in
the back kitchen he found a dead gooseparfially plucked,
with the head off. He took possession of it, and all the
feathers, and when at the police station he received the
heed from the prosecutrix, and found it to correspond
with the other portion of the goose. The prisoner was
very violent when the goose was found, and attempted
to rush out of the house, and they had to nee force to
secure him. The premises of the prosecutrix were 200
yards off the prisoner's beat.
James Grant, police sergeant 11 P, said that on
Thursday morning, at 5 o'clock, the prisoner ought to
have presented himself at the station-house with the
other constables off duty at that time. He did riot
make Lie appearance until 5 minutes after that time,
when he told witness that he had been to call up a con-
stable for day duty. About a quarter to ten o'clock
Miss Bates came to the station-house and gave informa-
tion of the robbery, at the came time handing witness
a pair of gloves covered wish feathers. Witness ex-
amined the prisoner's rattle, and found spots of blood on
it, and feathers adhering to it.
Mr. Mack, on behalf of the prisoner, contended that
there was no direct proof that the goose was stolen by
him ; it might have been given to him after the rubbery
by another person. As for the feathers: being over his
clothes that was nothing, as he had a right to pluck his
own goose. (Laughter.) The gloves being found did
not show that they were his property.
The Chairman in summing up the case said, the pri-
soner had not called any one to prove his lawful posses-
sion of the goose, and the gloves completely answered
the description of his, which he said had kid gloves in-
side of them. He had no occasion to dwell with any
length upon the case, as all-the combined circumstances
told very much against him.
The jury, without the least hesitation, returned a ver-
dict of guilty.

The Chairman said that, after hearing all the evidence,
they could come to no other conclusion than that he was
guilty of the robbery.
The proseoutrix here said that she lost three ducks a
short time before, and the prisoner called upon her and
toll her he knew that some boys had stolen them, lie
was the thief all the time.

The Chairman said it was a peculiarly bad case. The
prisoner was appointed to protect the property of the
public; instead of which he robbed the parties he was
considered to protect against thieves. Strictly speak-
ing, the prisoner ought to be punished with penal servi-
tude, which he richly deserved ; but as it was an act of
larceny he could not do so. He should, however, sen-
tence him to 12 months' hard labour in Wandsworth
House of Correction.

TWELVE MONTHS IN THE LIFE OF A
DETECTIVE POLICEMAN.

Yesterday, at Bow-street Police-court, Charles King,
a police-constable of the C division, No. 39, who has
been atached to the force several years, and has usually
done duty in plain clothes, was brought up in custody of
Inspector Durkin and Sergeant Langley, charged with
having been, in a great number of cases, the accomplice
of convicted thieves.

During the detention of the prisoner at the police-
station, before the examination commenced, he made a
desperate attempt to escape from the custody of the
sergeant, but he was speedily overtaken and secured
with the assistance of other officers.
It was understood that the prosecution had been
directed by the Police Commissioners, in consequence of
certain disclosures which had been made from time to
time by the young criminals confined in the House of
Detention, several of whom were brought to the court
under the charge of the prison officials to give evidence.
A statement of the preliminary inquiry was handed up
to the magistrate by Superintendent Pearce.

John Reeves, a -well-dressed youth of some intelli-
gence apparently, was then examined. He said he was
14 years of age, and knew the nature of an oath, al-
though he never took one before. He knew that it
bound him to speak the truth.

Mr. Hall—But do you know what will happen to you
if you tell a lie.
Witness—l shall be punished.
Mr. Hall—But I don't mean in this world ; I mean
hereafter, in the world to come.

Witness—Yes ; I shall offend in the eye of the Al-
mighty,_

Mr. Hall—Let him be sworn.

Examination continued—l am now a prisoner in the
Wadtminster Bricievvell. I was sent there on the 2d of
May last. I was tried at the Westminster Sessions for
picking pockets, and sentenced to two years' imprison-
ment. I know the prisoner King. He was a policeman.
He first knew me as a pickpocket. About this time last
year I met him by appointment at the Luke's Head pub-
lic-house in Little Pulteney-street. Two otherboys were
with me, named Donovan and Arrendon. He said he
would show us a piece where we could get some money —a
place where there were lots of ladies. It was a few days
after Christmas. King went with us through Berkeley-
square to the Serpentine, in 113ele-park. Kirg pointed out
lady to me is Berkeley-street, and I picked her pocket.
I got a purse containing 31. 15a., all gold except ss.
King told me that he knew I should get a skin from
her. I got it by putting my hand into her dress. I gave
the money to King, as well as two other purses which I
succeeded in getting from ladies, one just before and one
afterwards. The money was equally divided between
King, me, and the two other boys, about an hour after,
at a public house where we took refreshments. After
this we went to the Serpentine, and King took us up to
the bridge, where a great many ladies and gentlemen
were looking over at the skating which was going on
there. He said there were plenty of people there that I
might get something from. He painted with his stick
to a lady and gentleman who were leaning over the
bridge, and I and the other boys went up to them. I
picked the lady's pocket of a purse containing half a so-
vereign and 7s. King was about four yards off at the
time, and saw me do it. He then beckoned to us with his
stick, and when we were a little way off he took the purse
from me, emptied it, and put it into the hole of a tree. Ho
gave the money to Donovan to mind till we could get some
more. He told us it would not be safe to stop any longer
on the bridge, but said we might do something under
the bridges, where there were a great many people
under the arches. We wont down there, sad I picked
a lady's pocket of a handful of loose silver. I did not
count it, but passed it over to Donovan. I could net
do anything more there. King said it was a measley
sort of place, and it was no use stopping. The money
was divided about 7 o'clock the same evening at a public-
house in Chelsea. It was the large public-house oppo-
site the cab stand, about three doors from Sloane-street.
Donovan and the other boy were much older than me.
I was never tried for any of these offences. I first men-
tioned them about a mouth ago to Mr. Lawrence, one
of the officers of the prison. I mentioned some things
about King to one of the visiting magistrates. I was
never promised any reward or forgiveness for what I
told, and never expect any. The next day after going
up to the Serpentine we met again, by King's desire, at
the Luke's Head, and he took us to a bank, at the
corner of a street, in Pall-mall. Donovan and Arren-
don stopped two or three ladies there, but I could not
get anything from them.
Mr. Hall—lt seems that you were always selected to
pick the pockets. Was that because you were con-
sidered the most expert hand ?

Witness—Yes ; I was more up to it, and had the

watch to sell for us, and he said that he sold it for 4/
rile money was divided between him, King, and me..
My companions were not taken into custody with me.
They escaped.

Mr. Hall—What was the largest amount of money
you ever obtained in this way in one week ?
Witness—l have got between 901. and 1001. in one
week by pocket•picking. King shared that money with
me and the other boys. It was about six weeks before
I was taken. I picked from about one to five pockets
per day generally.
Mr. Hall—What did you do with your share of the
money? —_ _ -

Witness—l did not keep it by me. I used to give it
to Mr. Dunn, a tallow-chandler, who keeps a shop in
Short's-gardens. I have given him as much as 171. at
one time. I took the money to him because the other
boys did the same. I always had it back again when I
wanted it.

Mr. Hall—How did YOU spend all this money, then ?
At penny theatres, I suppose
Witness—Oh, no. At Astley's and Drury-lane. I
laid some of it out in clothes, and so forth.
Mr. Burnaby—And didn't you buy a horse !
Witness—l bought a pony at Smithfield for 51. 155.,
and kept it for about six months, riding about
with it.

Mr. Hail—Where did you usually ride ?
Witness—ln the Park, mostly. (Great laughter.) I
kept the pony standint, in the Angel-yard, Broadway,
and paid 2s. 6d. a week for it. I fed it myself. I sold
the pony for rather less than I gave for it. I had been a
thief two years before I was apprehended. I hare a
mother, but I left her.

Cross-examined by prisoner's attorney—l knew King
six months before January, 1854. The time when I first
went out with him I knew he was a policeman. Another
boy in the prison first told the visiting magistrate about
me and King.

Mr. never knew a more important inquiry
than this. If there is any truth in the statement we
have heard to-day (and I understand it is supported by
other evidence), it is one of the most frightful cases •f
delinquency that can well be imagined. That one ap-
pointed to protect the public should be so associated
with these young thieves—aiding, abetting, and pro-
fiting by their clime—seems hardly creditable ; and yet
I am informed that similar disclosures have been wade
by, other boys. It is( due to the public that the mat-
ter should be thoroughly sifted, and I trust the autho-
rities will deem it of sufficient importance to engage
the services of some professional gentleman to conduct
the prosecution,

•
Superintendent Pearce said that he would convey his
worship's opinion to the proper quarter. Two of the
prisoner's companions and three other boys had been
brought from the Bridewell to give evidence if required.
Mr. Hall—You have shown enough for a remand,
and I think the inquiry had better be adjourned for a
week. The offence charged is so heinous in its charac-
ter that I hope no exertion will bo spared to ensure its
proper management.

The prisoner (who said nothing to the charge) was
then remanded fur fiirther examination.

It may be added that the prisoner is the officer who
was concerned in an extraordinary case heard before
Mr. Jardine, at Bow-street, on the 25th Oat. last, and
reported at length in our paper of the following day.
On that occasion a servant girl was charged with con-
cealing the birth of an illegitimate child, and a lady
named Butler, the girl's mistress, accused the officer
of having conspired with the girl and another person
to extort 201. from her to prevent the disclosure of
circumstances which were alleged to implicate her as
au accessory on the occasion.

A SOLDIER'S WIFE.—On Sunday last the wife of Pri-
vate Hunter, of the Royal Sappers and Miners, pre-
sented to the military chaplain at Liverpool, for bap-
tism, two children, of which she has recently bee❑ con-
fined. When the minister asked the sponsor to "name
the child," the answer was " Inkerman •" and when he
took the second, asking the same question, the answer
was •` Alma." The former was a boy, and the latter a
girl, and their genuine military mother wished them to
bear the names of the great battles which their father
had witnessed cm his march to Selmstopol.
