BOW-STREET.

Mn. BANICES'S CASE AGAIN.—On Tuesday, Mr. Thos.
Sneezum, a builder, residing at No. 13, Great Smith-
street, 'Westminster, accompanied by his solicitor, waited
upon Mr. Jardine to inform him of an imposition which
had been practised upon him.
The Solicitor said, that in the course of last week a
person of the name of Bankes was charged with an inde-
cent assault, and ordered to enter into recognizances to
answer the charge at the Central Criminal Court. One
of the bail on that occasion gave the name and address
of Mr. Sneezum, but that gentleman knew nothing what-
ever of the matter till he saw his name reported in the
newspapers. The charge against Mr. Bankes was of a
most disgusting nature, and Mr. Sneezum's name being
mixed up in such a transaction had given him consider-
able pain. Mr. Sneezum's nephew, who was of the same
name, and was in the employ of his uncle as a servant,
had entered into the required sureties, and declared him-
self to be a housekeeper, residing as above, which was
totally untrue.
Mr. JARDINE inquired whether the nephew's name
was Thomas ? Mr. Sneezum answered in the affirmative.
Mr. JARDINE—Does he reside on the premises ? Mr.
Sneezum—Yes ; but he merely resides there as my
servant.
Mr. JARDINE—IS he a housekeeper ? Mr. Sneezum—
Certainly not.
The Solicitor inquired whether he could not have the
party re-captured and fresh bail taken ? Mr. Jardine
was of opinion that he could not do so. The Solicitor said, that at all events the recognizances
were void.

Mr. JARDINE inquired whether the recognizances had
been returned to the sessions ? The chief clerk said
they had not at present been returned.
Mr. JARDINE said, of course Mr. Sneezum was not
responsible under the recognizances, but it was quite cer-
tain that his nephew washable to be indicted for perjury.
It was a subject of great and serious importance, and he
(Mr. Jardine) would take time to consider what course
he ought to pursue. It was evident that he had been most
grossly imposed upon by the false representations made,
more particularly so after he had sent an officer to inquire
into the sufficiency of the sureties. He would consider
what steps he should take. The parties then leftthe office.,
On Wednesday Mr. Gregory, a solicitor, attended
before Mr. Jardine, in consequence of a statement that
appeared in the newspapers respecting the sureties of
Mr. Bankes, who was last week charged at this Court
with a misdemeanor.

Mr. Gregory said, that he was the solicitor for the
family ,of Mr. Bankes, and having seen it stated in the
Times, and other papers, that an individual of the same
name as one of Mr. Bankes's sureties, had appeared here
and complained that he had been personated, he (Mr.
Gregory) made it his duty to see Mr. Bankes on the sub-
ject, and he had ascertained that neither Mr. Bankes nor
his servant was aware that the person who became surety
was not the proprietor of the premises in Great Smith-
street, and a householder. But, as it now appeared that
he was not, Mr. Bankes was ready to furnish the Magis-
trate with another surety this evening, and inquiry might
be made concerning him, and to-morrow (this day) be

EVENING SUN

0 01 Id attend and enter into the requisite recognizances.
Mr. JARDINE—I apprehend that can he done.
Mr. Gregory said that he would not now enter into the
merits of the charge, but he might state, that at the pro-
per time Mr. Bankes would be prepared with a sufficient
answer to it.
Mr. JARDINE observed that the case had certainly
been misrepresented by the papers.
Mr. Gregory—Yes, grossly misrepresented.
Mr. JARDINE—The nature of the charge has been en•
tirely misunderstood, and there is a common saying,
that " misunderstanding brings many lies to town."
It was then arranged that the surety alluded to by
Mr. Gregory should attend here to-morrow (this day).

[WANDSTVORTH POLICE.
A POLICEMAN FINDING PROPERTY.—James Potter,
police constable 268 V., was placed at the bar, before
Mr. Paynter, charged with stealing a fur boa.
Charlotte Weston stated that she was a widow, and
lived in Plough-lane, Battersea. The fur boa produced,
value Is. 6d., she lost on the eveninc, of the 4th of Sep-
tember, in Battersea Washway, and gave information o
her loss at Clapham station-house.
James Titmos, a youth, about thirteen years of age,
said, that a little after that time he found the boa on the
foot-path. The prisoner, who was close upon his heels,
asked him what he had got, and he said, " A pussy
and prisoner said, " I must have that, my man." He
took it up, and put it inside his coat.
Police Sergeant Emerson proved that information of
the loss of the boa was received at the station on Satur-
day, and at nine that night it was read in orders to the
men going on and coming off duty ; the prisoner being
one of those present, he was asked if he found any such
article, and he said he had not. He was asked again on
the following morning, if he knew anything of it, and be
said he did not. It was his duty to have brought the
boa to the police-station, after finding it.
The prisoner said a few words in defence, that
amounted to nothing, and was fully committed to tile
Central Criminal Court for trial.
