John Chapman and Wm. Swift, clerk and porter in the
employ of Mr. White, a salesman in Covent garden market,
were brought up on remand charged with stealing money
from their master's till.

Mr. Abrams, of Bow- street, appeared. for Chapman, and
Mr. Steadman for Swift.

M. White stated that for some time past he had sus-
pected that he was being robbed, and on the 17th Sept. he
placed in the cash-box £2 19s. in marked silver, and £6 9s.
in other moneys. Between 1 and 2on the following day
he found the money was £2 6s. short. He called in the
market beadle, and in his presence taxed Swift with the
robbery. Swift at first denied it. Being asked what
money he had about him he produced 14s. in silver, of which
two half-crowns, four shillings, and two florins were part of
the marked money. The prisoner said he could not tell
how he got those coins unless in change. Afterwards he
acknowledged that he had taken it from the cask box which
he had opened with a false key. He produced the false
key and gave it up, at the same time saying that " Jack"
(meaning Chapman) was as bad as he. When Chapman came
in he was accused of complicity with Swift, at first denied
it, but ultimately acknowledged that he had some of the
money, and produced two of the marked half crowns.
IThey both begged to be forgiven, Chapman, with tears in
his eyes, and Mr. White took till the next morning to con-
sider; agreeing to meet them at a public house in Maiden-
lane. " Swift," continued the prosecutor, "kept the ap-
pointment, and was led like a lamb to the slaughter, but
Chapman was not man enough to face it." He was appre-
hended some days later.
Mr. Abrams cross-examined the witnesses at some
length, but finding the magistrate had decided on a com-
mittal reserved his defence.
The prisoners were committed for trial.
William Levy and Mary Brittain were charged with
stealing a purse.

The complainant said the woman got into conversation
with him and then stole his purse, which contained a good
sum of money. The male prisoner came up after the
robbery and tried to prevent the complainant following the
woman by asking the way to Chancery-lane.
Ackrill, the detective, said both prisoners were known to
each other, although they denied it when he apprehended
them.
They were both fully committed for trial.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
SZELETON KEYS.—ATTEMPT TO ENTER AN HOTEL.—
William Jones, a young man, was charged before Mr.
Knox, by Sergeant Winters, 8 0, with attempting to enter
the house, No. 8, Dover-street, a private hotel.
The evidence went to show that James Cox, waiter to
Mr. Storey, private hotelkeeper, of 6,7, and 8, Dover-street,
while in the hall of the house No. 8 the previous evening,
heard some one trying to open the door with a key. He
opened the door, and the prisoner immediately ran away,
leaving a key in the lock. The witness Cox pursued the pri-
soner, who in his flight threw away some skeleton and
other keys, and at last was caught by a Commissionaire
named Robert Pitt, and handed over to Sergeant Winters,
BC. On Sergeant Winters going to the residence of the
prisoner's father, he found that he had only been home a
few weeks after receiving three years' imprisonment for a
skeleton key robbery.

Jarvis, 165 C, proved picking up several keys which had
been filed.

Prisoner wanted to know what the indictment was against
him, and Mr. Knox told him that he would know that in
good time, and remanded him.
