POLICE INTELLIGENCE Y ESTERDAY.

DISORDERLY FOREIGNERS.—PhiIibert Mathieu, a shoe-
maker, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, at the Marl-
borough-street Police-court, with being drunk and also
assaulting the police, and Alphonse Letoilleux, artist,
was charged with being drunk and behavingin a disorderly
manner and attempting to rescue Mathieu. From the
evidence of Constable Evans it appeared that the two
prisoners had a dispute at an oyster stall in Wardour-
street, and the foreigners eventually knocked some of them
off the stall. A row ensued, and when the defendants
were taken into custody Letoilleux assaulted the constable.
A witness was called, named Jolly, but as he appeared
somewhat confused in his account of the matter, owing to
the amount of- refreshment he had taken, the magistrate
fined Letoilleux 10s., and Mathieu 20s.
SUICIDE BRIDGES.—Ann Leary, aged 26 years, was
charged by Mr. Roue, inspector of the K division of police,
at the Thames Police-court, with attempting to commit
suicide at the Old Gravel-lane swivel bridge of the London
Dock, where so many unfortunates have committed
suicide. The prisoner was intoxicated when she made the
rash attempt on her life. Inspector Rose said the many
attempts of wretched and erring creatures to rid, them-
selves of life from the Old and New Gravel-lane bridges
had put the police to great inconvenience and trouble.
-The prisoner was remanded for a week. Ellen Cross, a
married woman, was also brought up, on remand, charged
with an attempt at self-destruction at the New Gravel- I
lane swivel bridge of the London Dock, which has gained
the same unenviable notoriety as the other bridge for the
many suicides committed there ; but she was discharged,
after being admonished by the magistrate.
CHARGE AGAINST A JOCKEY.—A jockey, who gave the
name of Charles Jones, was charged before Mr. Arnold,
at the Westminster Police Court, with two assaults and
wilfully destroying a coat. Arthur Coe, footman to Baron
Bruce, and Wm. Aylett, coachman to Sir Wm. Mansfield,
gave evidence, and stated that while standing quietly
at the corner of E at on-lane last night, a youth dressed as
and annoyed Aylett by walking round
ahinijoetkNejcec,amand theneup running his spursinto him. He took
no notice of this, and then the lad came and struck him
in the stomach. He ordered him off on that occasion,
but a third time the lad came up and annoyed and struck
him, and then Aylett, incensed at the annoyance, seized
the lad and threw him into the road. The defendant
then rushed up and, joined by half a dozen others, made a
general onslaught upon both Coe and Aylett, striking
them several times and tearing Coe's coat all to pieces.
Defendant utterly denied the intention to annoy the com-
plainants ; said he merely went to the assistance of the
lad, who was being ill-treated, and who had put on his
ockey's clothes for spott.
