POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MANSION-HOUSE.

Richard Storey, 14, and Edward John Glover, 13, errand
boys, were brought before the Loid Mayor and Alderman
Finnis, sitting in Petty Session, charged with stealing a
cheque on the Union Bank for £2O, the property of their
employer, Mr. Thos. Marzetti, 9, John-street, Minories,
bonded warehouseman.

The prisoners were both in the service of Mr. Marzetti
as errand boys, and on the 21st ult. the prisoner Glover
was sent to the Union Bank with a cheque for £2O, which
he was to get cashed and take back to the warehouse to pay
the wages with. He never returned with the money, it
having been ascertained that the cheque was paid at the
Union Bank. The prisoner Storey, who accompanied
Glover to the bank, also absconded. Nothing was seen
or heard of the prisoners until Friday, when detective
officer Gale went to Hackney, where he apprehended both
the prisoners. He told them they wore charged with steal-
ing a cheque for £2O, and twat he should take them into
custody. Glover said when he got the money, as he was
coming through the Exchange the prisoner Storey, who had
followed him to the Bank, persuaded him not to go back,
and took a bag with £5 from him, and said he would throttle
him if he did not go with him. They went together, and Glover
gave Storey another £5, and they went to Southend and
afterwards to Chatham, where they spent all the =may.
They each paid for what they had, and Storey spent, all his
money first, and Glover had to give him some of his. After
spending all their money they walked from Chatham to
London. Some of the money, it appeared, was spent in the
purchase of clothing.
They were sentenced to four months' imprisonmeat.
