POLIC INTELLIGENCE.—Nov. 24.

GUILDHALL. Since the exposure in our
columns, a few days ago, of a fellow resident abroad,
assuming the names of Richard Brooke, F. Neville,
and a variety of other aliases, Mr. Schultz, who
originally brought the matter under the magis-
trate's notice, has received from clergymen and
others in various parts of the country a number of
letters showing that a most extensive and system-
atic imposition has been practised upon the public
in this country for years past, with a considerable
amount of success. In one instance, Mr. Schultz
stated, the party in question succeeded in duping a
gentleman at Torquay f a sum of X3O; but in at-
tempting to defraud a hydropathic institution at
Bruhl, near Cologne, of a similar amount, he was
not quite so fortunate, and Mr. E. C. Hardy, who
was an inmate of the establishment at the time,
writing from Woodfield, near Flint, states that the
same party represented himself as Lieut.-Colonel
Neville Fane (no such name being in the Army List),
and proposes to spend the winter with his family at
the institution, and requested the loan of .£3O to pay
his expenses over, his own remittances from India
having failed him. This was a tempting bait for a
younginstitution ; and had not the managers en-
deavoured to effect a compromise of the above terms
by offering to forward the amount upon the arrival
of the first instalment of the colonel's family, there
would have been another added to the list of vic-
tims. In this case, as in many others, he made free
with the British consul's name, in order to lull sus-
picion, and wished that the money should be sent
in one Bank of England note, to an address at Dijon,
which he gave. In another letter, signed with the
name of " F. Neville," but evidently from the same
party, dated from
Naples
Rev. Mr. Fowle, of the vi and addressed to the
vicarage, Shipton, Marl-
borough, in reply to an advertisement, for pupils, the
fellow said he had three sous just returned from
India, for the purpose of receiving an English edu-
cation ; but from some unexplained reason the con-
templated imposition upon this gentleman wassud-
denlv abandoned. Not so however, in the case of
the Rev. Mr. J. S. Vaughan, of Slapton, near Dart-
mouth, who writes that he advertised for a pupil,
and received a reply from Colonel Neville Fane,
dated from Dijon, offerine, to place his two boys
under his care for three years at £3OO per annum,
with £5O a-year for horse exercise, which he was
desirous hi, sons should have. In a long letter, in
which he described his jeurney from India, visiting
en route and unexpectedly, Egypt, the cataracts of

he Nile, Syria, Palestine, the Archipelagos, Sicily,
and all Italy, from Naples, Rome, Florence, Genoa,
Milan, Venice, Turin, fiCrOil the Alps to Switzer-
land, and thence to Dijon, he stated that in making
such a detour from the regular track he nad tun
short of meansi and although he had written to
Messrs. Matheson, his hankers; at Calcutta, and
Messrs. Lyon and Dodd,his solicitors, his dividends,
which he casually quoted at £B6O, had not arrived,
and he, therefore, requested the loan of £3O to
enable him to take his boys to Dartmouth. He
then went, on to state that he was a widower, 38
years of age, and had married the niece of Sir Ti.
Frere, of the Legislative Council, Bengal, and
offered not only to repay the loan, and to pay a year
in advante) hut promised to get Mr. Vaughan two
more pupils, sons of Mr. Grant, the Deputy-Gover-
nor of Bengal. He was exceedingly anxious that
the amount should be forwarded in one Bank of
England note through the British Consul at Calais
or Boulogne, which he urged would be an offi-
cial guarantee for his identity and respectability,
and that nu delay should occur, as he did not
wish his " fine noble who had been used to
officers' society from the age of five, to be uselessly
idling away their time at Dijon. Mr. Vaughan 'a
reply to this latter intimated that he had discovered
the mala fides of his dottcarendent, and in commu-
nicating with Mr. Schultz the ret'. gentleman said he
feared this species of deception was not the darkest
part of the colonel's career, as he had ascertained
that he had advertised repeatedly for young ladies
to fill the situation of governess, with the view of
inducing poor and friendless girls to go abroad and
to get them in his power. Mr. Vaughan said he was
a man of peace, but he should, nevertheless, like to
teach the fellow the meaning of muscular Chris-
tianity. It further appeared by a letter from a
newsagent in King-street, St. James's, that Colonel
Pane obtained a regular supply of the Times, and
the insertion of his advertisements, both of which
Mr. Vaughan's inquiries put an end to, In that
case very little cunning was exercised by the
colonel, who merely wrote to the proprietor of an
hotel in Jermyn-street, St. James's, stating his in-
tention of taking up his quarters there for the win-
ter, and requested that newspapers might be for-
warded to him in the interim. Mr. R. A. White, soli-
citor, of G, ant ham,advertised for information relative
to the whereabouts or death of John Mills Taylor,
formerly of Sproxton, near Melton Mowbray, and
latterly of Newark-upon-Trent, and received a reply
from the colonel in the name of Alfred Ainsworth
Fynn, dated from the Bagniere de Luohon, Haute
Garonne, offering to go before the British consul at
Marseilles, whom he said he well knew, and make
the necessary affidavit as to the death of " his old
friend" John Mills Taylor, and requiring a Bank of
England note for £2O to defray his hotel and tra-
velling expenses to and from Marseilles. He repre-
sented he was well known to M. Charles Tron, the
mayor of the town where he was staying, and fur-
ther offered, if his affidavit were not necessary, to
supply the required information on the receipt of a
Bank of England note for £lO. But as Mr. White
declined to part with any money for information
which might prove valueless, and intimated that
certain formal and official certificates would be ne-
cessary with regard to the death, burial, and identity
of the missing individual, Mr. A. A. Fynn, alias F.
Neville, alias Richard Brooke, alias Col. Neville
Fane, abruptly declared off. The name of Fynn
will probably be recognised by many of our readers
as that of a notorious person who was exposed by
Sir R. W. Carden about 18 months ago at the Man-
sion-house. On that occasion it transpired that
several young ladies had been induced by the liberal
terms offered by Fynn to accept the situation of
governess and found too late how egregiously they
had been deceived, having been inveigled abroad
for the worst of purposes.

BOW-STREET.—Charles Browne and Henry
Johnson, alias Taylor, alias Smith, were brought
before Mr. Henry on the charges of loitering in
Tottenham-court-road, with a view to commit
felony, attempt to commit highway robbery, and
violently assaulting two police-officers.
The prisoners were observed by Sergeant Lam-
bert, E division (who was in private clothes), loi-
tering about in Tottenham-court-road, between
Francis-street andChenies-street,in a suspicious man-
ner. At the corner of Chenies-street he heard Johnson
say to Browne, " Here is a chance," at the same
time pointing out a man who was crossing the road.
Browne replied, " Oh, let him go, he has not got
any super" (a slang word understood to mean a
watch). They then allowed the ;man to pass by.
The constable concealed himself in a doorway, and
after a while saw them attack another passenger.
He rushed across the road to assist the gentleman.
Upon seeing him they ran off, and escaped from
him. Shortly afterwards he met with Sergeant
Ryan (also of the E division), with whom he went
in search of them. In about twenty minutes he
found them in Tottenham-court-road, and leaving
Ryan, who was in uniform, a little behind, he
went up to them and took them in custody.
Browne seized him by the throat, saying " If you
don't let me go, you --, I will knife you ;"
and after a struggle got away, but was pur-
sued by Ryan. During the struggle which
followed between Johnson and Lambert the
former dropped a lanthorn and a crowbar
which were at once snatched up by a woman, who
ran away with them. With the assistance of some
persons who happened to come up, Lambert con-
veyed Johnson to the station-house. In the mean-
while Ryan followed Browne, who was running
along Tottenham-court-road, and overtook him
near Cumberland street. Browne took a crowbar
from his pocket and beat him about the head with
it, smashing his hat and stunning him. He again
got away, but was stopped by a gentleman, who
detained him till Ryan, recovered from the stun-
ning, came up and took him into custody.
The crowbar, a formidable weapon, was produced.
Johnson, after giving two false names, admitted
that his real name was Smith, and gave his correct
address. He admitted that he had been previously
convicted.

13oth prisoners denied that they were the persons
who attacked the man in Tottenham-court-road.
Browne said if he ever had a chance, he wopld
" pay" Ryan.
They were remanded for further investigation.

CLEItKENWELL.--•A YOUNG WOMAN FROM
THE COUNTRY CHARGED WITH BEING DRESSED AS
A MAN.—A respectably-attired young woman, who
gave the name of Margaret Norton, described as of
no occupation, was charged before Mr. Barker with
being drunk And incapable of taking care of her-
self, in the Southgate-road.
It appeared that the defendant was attired in
man's clothing on the previous night, a little after
11 o'clock, and, as she was drunk and incapable of
taking care of herself, she was taken to the Kings-
land police•station, and was licked up. It was
stated that the defendant had come to town on a
visit, and she had attired herself in man's clothes
for the purpose of having a spree.
The defendant, who s.?emed to feel her position
acutely, said she was sorry, and would never do so
any mote.
Mr. Barker discharged her with a caution.

MARYLEBONE. THE ATTEMPTED WIFE
MTJRDER, IN CHURCH-STREET.—James Wadden,
described as a hairdresser, was brought up on re-
mand before Mr. Yardley, charged with having
attempted to murder his wife, Harriet Maria Col-
chester, by cutting her throat with a razor.
It will be remembered that on last Sunday night
week the unfortunate wife went with her husband
to the coffeeshop at which they had been accus-
tomed to sleep, 3, New Church-street, Edgware-
road, and where they retired to their room about 11
o'clock at night. After about an hour's time, the
landlord (Mr. Cobley) and his lodgers were aroused
by loud screams of " Murder," and on breaking open
the door of the room in which prisoner and his wife
were, saw them both in their nightdresses, covered
with blood. Prisoner said his wife had cut her
throat, on which she turned her head as well as she
was able, and shook it, as much as to say " No."
Medical gentlemen were called in, and by their ad-
vice Mr, Yardley was sent for, and took the poor
woman's depositions. Since then Mr. Kirby, of
Connaught-terrace, and Mr. Greaves, of Newcastle-
place, Edgware-road, have been in constant attend.
ance upon her, and today the following certificate
was handed in by Mr. Burrows, of the I) division,
who said he would not then tender any further evi-
dence :

" Nov. 24, 1862.—5ir,---We beg to report that
the health of Hannah Maria Colchester Wadden is
improving daily, the chief drawback being spasmo-
dic attacks of coughing. The wound is granulat-
ing healthily, but at present there is no tendency
of it to close. She still breathes entirely through
the wound iu the front part of the neck. She mis-
carried on Saturday night, at 11.45, with a small
child, dead. She is doing well, and we ho{ ein a
few days to report her to be out of danger.—Signed
by Mr. KIRBY, surgeon of the police, and Dr.
(3 REAVES, M.] )."

The prisoner was remanded for another week.
It is understood that in nddition to the charge of
attempted murder, a charge of bigamy will be
brought against the prisoner, a number of the rela-
tives of the first wife, who is still living, being pre-
sent, with the marriage certificate, which is signed
in the same name as he (prisoner) now gives.

W ORSRIP-STREET.—A GOLD BED.—Fanny
Whitworth, 15, and Alice Gosley, 14, finely grown
girls, were charged before Mr. Cooke, the former
with stealing £l4 10s. iri gold from her parents,
and the latter with knom iogly receiving the same.
Mr. Beard defended Gosiey.
The Engthfa. of Whitworth said her husbghd Wi46

a dock labourer, she addel to their little money re-
cei'vals by turning a mangle. Therii was a family
of six children, yet she had been able to put by I
small amounts at different times, which on Saturday
last amounted to 129. This, in different sums
wrapped in paper, she, when opportunity offered,
placed in the tick of her bed, and in the mattress
under it. On Friday last she missed half a cove-
reign, and mentioned the fact to her daughter the
prisoner. Subsequently 15 sovereigns were missed,
taken from the 'various parcels, and then the girl ad-
mitted having taken 12 10s., which she said sue had
lent to her companion Gosley. A few hours after-
wards ehe returned a sovereign, saying that Gosley
had restored it. The bulk of the money, however,
could not be heard of.

215, N division, said he apprehended Gosley on
Saturday night last. She insisted that the £2 10s.
was all Whitworth had given to her, and that she
believed it had been honestly come by. She was
a hard-working girl.
Mr. Beard strongly contended th,,t there was not
the slightest proof of his client's guilty knowledge,
the other girl having manifestly led her into par-
ticipation of the offence.
Mr. Cooke remanded the prisoners.

HAMMERSMITIL—A SERVANT'S INTRIGUE,
—A young man named Joseph Thornton, was
charged before Mr. Dayman with having been in
the area at the residence of Admiral Hutcheson, of
29, Norland-square, Notting-hill, supposed for an
unlawful purpose.
The Admiral stated that he was called up by the
police between four and five o'clock that morning on
account of the prisoner having been found in his
area, The most extraordinary part of the affair was
that his servant, who slept upstairs, was down, and
told him that the prisoner had asked her for a few
matches and she gave him some. The witness also
stated that he recognised the prisoner as having
seen him leave his area with a lump of coal about
three weeks ago, and when he questioned the ser•
vant about it she told him that she knew nothing
of hlm nor the coal.
Police-constable Lewis, 325 T, said that about
half-past four o'clock that morning he was on duty
in Norland-square, when he heard the voices of
persons talking in the area of No. 29, and the pri-
soner afterwards climbed over the gate. He stopped
the prisoner, and asked what he had been doing in
the house, to which he replied that he had not been
in the house, but that he had been talking to the
servant outside the railing. He afterwards told
him that she put a chair to enable him to get down
the area.
The prisoner told the constable that he had been
previously talking to the servant, but the officer
denied the allegation.
Mr. Dayman asked the prisoner to explain the
reason of his being at the Admiral's house at that
time of the morning,
The prisoner said that he was at work upon the
job. This was explained that the Admiral's house
and other houses in the square had been under ex-
ternal repair, and the prisoner was one of the
labourers employed at the works. He added that
he came from Stratford on Sunday night, and
reached Norland-square about two o'clock in the
morning. He was supposed to go to work at seven
o'clock, but he lodged near the square, and was
going home. As he passed the Admiral's house he
saw the servant, and she invited him down for half
an hour. She provided him with a chair to get
down and a chair with which he could get up.
Admiral Hutcheson said he had not missed any-
thing. He wished, however, to have a remand for
the attendance of the servant.
Mr. Dayman thought the case was explained. It
was a little bit of intrigue between the servant and
the prisoner.
Admiral Hutcheson said she had been in his ser-
vice six months, and had behaved remarkably well.
Mr. Dayman remarked that it was strange she
was down about the house at that time in the
morning.
Admiral Hutcheson supposed it was by appoint-
ment. He was, however, only desirous of obtaining
the truth.
Mr. Dayman thought the truth was very trans-
parent. There was sufficient intelligence for the ad-
miral to act upon, and he could make any inquiry
of the young woman he chose.
The prisoner said he did not go there for any un-
lawful purpose.
Mr. Dayman said it was not for any good pur-
pose, quite the contrary.
The prisoner was then discharged.

THE ALLEGED COMMERCIAL FRAUD.

James Crowther end Samuel Goodburn, two re-
spectable middle-aged men, who were placed at the
bar on last Monday week upon a charge of conspir-
ing together in obtaining, by false pretences, sums
to the amount of about £7,000, with intent to de-
fraud their employers, Messrs. Laing and Merri-
dew, appeared yesterday before the Lord Mayor, at
the Mansion-house, in ans wer to their recognisances,
to undergo a further examination upon that charge.
Mr. Wontner again prosecuted, and Mr. Sleigh,
barrister, instructed by Messrs. Hillyer and Fen-
wick, appeared on behalf of the defendant Crow-
ther, and Mr. Geo. Lewis appeared for the de-
fendant Goodburn.

Mr. Wontner signified his intention of calling Mr.
Barber as a witness, and said he thonght he would
be the only additional evidence that would be re-
quired.
It will be remembered that on the last examina-
tion, Mr. Laing, of the firm of Laing and Merridew,
was the only witness examined.
Mr. Sleigh now said he should like to put a ques-
tion or two to Mr. Laing, and he was accordingly
again called into the witness-box. In answer to
Mr. Sleigh,
Mr. Laing said—The transactions between our
firm and Mr. Barber amounted to several thousand
pounds per annum for the last several years, the
entries being made by Goodburn and another clerk
in our books. Upon a purchase being made in the
market the entry would be immediately made in the
contract book, sometimes, not always, by the tvr-
son who effected the purchase. The contract books
are all still in existence. The contract I referred to
with Messrs. Northcote and Son is entered in our
books, and our commission charged as brokers and
received by us. I said on the last occasion Crowther
had since been carrying on business on his own ac-
count, but I have since ascertained he was a clerk.
I have spoken my mind respecting him. I have been
called upon by some perm to arrange Crowther's
accounts, but I refused to entertain it. Crowther
sent Mr. George Evans toil me, offering to give me
any explanation I might require. My reply was
that Crowther had told me so many lies I would not
believe him upon his oath. I told Mr. Evans to tell
Crowther to send me a copy of all the transactions
with Barber, but I have never had it. I never said
I would not let Crowther rest until I drove him out
of the market.
Mr. Lewis, on behalf of Goodburn, said he should
like to cross-examine the witness before Mr. Barber
was called, and in answer to him
Mr. Laing said—Barber's account commenced in
1853. I think it commenced with a purchase of tar-
tar only. I think that was paid for in cash. From
1853 to 1855 it was paid for partly by cash and
partly in manufactured articles. The first dealing in
saltpetre was in June, 1855. It was Good burn's duty
to credit him with the tartaric acid or the cash when
paid, in the ledger. From 1853 to June, 1855, I
looked over Barber's account from time to time. In
June, 1855, there appears to be about £5OO due to us
from him. In 1855 a fresh business was introduced
between us and Barber. It was the purchase of
saltpetre through us as brokers in addition to the
tartaric acid. Between 1855 and 1861 I went over
the ledger account of Barber several times in each
year, and always made inquiries. When that new
business was introduced nothing was said to the
defendant about the limit of Barber's account. I
did not consider it requisite to caution them any
more about it. On one occasion I told Goodburn
not to let the account go over £5OO. The payment
for the saltpetre was made in refined saltpetre or
cash. In every year I went over the account in
the ledger between Barber and ourselves several
times. I thought Barber was a man of limited
means, and a man it was not safe to trust over
£5OO. It was a stipulation between us and Barber
that he should deal through our house alone. I
was aware that Barber had not any saltpetre refin-
ing works till 1855. Between 1855 and 1861 Bar-
ber might have paid us, in cash and manufactured
articles, as much as £BO,OOO. We charged Barber
one per cent., and one per cent. for selling : one-
half per cent. on buying was because we made
advances on the warrants. We also charged five
per cent. interest on the balance. The interest de-
pended upon the state of the market. It was very
likely to have been as much as eight per cent. at
times. Our firm was in the habit of entering into
contracts for the purchase of saltpetre for Barber.
We entered into contracts most likely to the extent
of £3,000. It was debited to Barber, and would
become his, subject to payment. If £3,000 worth
of saltpetre purchased at Liverpool was purchased
without warrants and conveyed to Barber's premises
without any security, it was by the prisoners, and
not with my or my partner's knowledge or sanction.

That was about April, 1862. I cf ;
Goodburn and Crowther had, witi'ioui;*
mynae with
ledge or consent, entered into an arrangb
Mr. Cauderoy. They had taken warrants from the
box without my sanction and delivered t he,m from
nowtime to time to :Mr. Cauderoy, who was to euTPIY
to
that saltpetre to Mr. Barber, and Barber wee
repay him in refined saltpetre. Cauderoy gave WY
clerks a memorandum that he would pay the moues'
when he sold the saltpetre. When the discovery.
was made Cauderoy had warrants to the amount of
upwards of £9UO, which he ultimately paid the
money for. Ido not know what arrangement theY
made with Barber; they credited Cauderoy without
my consent. 1 told them not to trust Mr. Caude-
roy in any transactions. There were 40 or 50 nei
Icounts opened. Goodburn had the managemqntii°e
t hem, but he was not authorised to give credit. ,1-.`
did not come from me from time to time when he
delivered the warrants. He had no need to do se.
as he had general instructions as to the limit of
every account. I had unlimited confidence in Good-
burn, and I do believe that, with the exception Of
this account, no other account has been in error.
have not found out. that Goodburn has derived the
least benefit frc m Barber's account. The discovery„
took place in March, and he remained with me tint'''.
June, when he resigned. He was most assiduous
in making up the accounts of Barber. I find that
every item has been entered in my accounts with
Barber. I have gone over every iteo, and am bound
to say I have found them all correct,
Mr. Laing, on being re-examined byiUr.Wontner,
said—With respect to the transaction of Crowther,
which I told Mr. Sleigh was entered in our booksp
and which we received the brokerage, that was the
transaction about which I had the convesatiou
with Crowther, and in which he admitted the en,cl:
were his own, and which he had bought with !'".."
moneys of the firm. Barber paid me part in casbi
part in tartaric acid, and part in saltpetre. I mem'
by that that when we sold the tartaric acid,
placed the proceeds to his account, having purchaseu
the raw material for him. If that had been carried
out in all subsequent transactions it would hac
been quite safe. The ledger would show what
goods had been bought for Barber, and what he
had paid in respect of those goods ; but the securities'
do not appear on the face of that account. Each
party's securities are kept separate, and are 13°_
carried through the ledger. I did not examine th
securities, but took Goodburn's word that they were
sufficient to cover the balances. If he had re;
tamed the warrants until the goods had been
paid for the account would have been perfeettle
straightforward. It was no matter what °let
balance was so long as there were securities to ence,
it. I know nothing about the Liverpool trarisnii,
tions in 1858, in which the saltpetre was sent
rect to Barber's premises, without the warren':
being retained. It that was done, it must hn/
boen by the prisoners, and was not done with ;
consent or authority. I have not supplied Bar to
with a single artic.e since the discovery of the ste..,
of his account. The £9OO was realised by seclq
ties which Cauderoy held. I have told them bc'tc,
not to give Cauderoy credit. Cauderoy failed jail?"'
debt, and I was one of the inspectors of his estal"'
That was in Nov., 1857.
The cross-examination had lasted a considereblo,
time, when Mr. Wontner said Mr. Barber's
amination would, most likely, occupy several booed
and it being already late, the case was adjourneia
for a week, both the defendants being admitted
bail the same as before.
