POLICE INILLLIGENCE.

MARLBOROUGH- STREET.

ASSAULT AT THE ALHAMBRA PALACE.--GeOrge
Henry Ebers, waiter, No. 11, Weston-place, Yolk-
road, King's-cross, was charged before Mr. Knox
with assaulting Thomas Palmer, constable, at the
Alhambra, and also with being drunk and disor-
derly ; and Henry Ebers, his father, a coffeehouse-
keeper; and Joseph Overton, a pointsman, of
No. 11, Weston-place, were charged with being
drunk and attempting to rescue the first-named
defendant from the custody of the police.
Mr. Sayer appeared for the complainant, and
Mr. Ricketts for the defend.

Mr. John Reeves, superintendent of the Al-
hambra, said that about eight o'clock the previous
evening the three defendants presented themselves
for admission, and Weston and Henry Ebers
being drunk he refused to admit them, and an al-
tercation then took place, and there was a good
deal of chaffing. He took hold of the defendant
Henry Ebers to put him out, when George Ebers
came up to him and tripped him up, and then
struck Palmer, one of the constables, on the face
with a stick. He then called "Police," and gave
the defendant, George, into custody, Palmer's face
bleeding very much at the time.

In answer to Mr. Knox, the witness said Reeves
took no part in the assault.
Mr. Ricketts put several questions to the witness
with the view of showing that the defendant,
George Ebers, had three tickets for admission, and
that he went back to get his money back, and
also that he had advised his father to leave the
place without any bother.
Thomas Palmer, a constable of the Alhambra,
proved being struck in the face with a silver-
knobbed stick by the defendant, George Ebers, and
gave similar evidence to the first witness.

Neil nanny, 172 C, said that on attempting to
take defendant, George Ebers, into custody, the
other defendant tried to rescue him, all the defen-
dants being drunk. Palmer's face was bleeding,
and the defendants treated him (witness) very
roughly.
Mr. Francis Bebey, of No. 16, St. Martin's-
court, said the complainant came to him with a
contused wound on the face, and he dressed it for
him.

In answer to Mr. Ricketts, the witness said that
the injury might have been inflicted with the stick
produced.

Mr. Knox said the most serious part of the
charge was against George Ebers.
Mr. Ricketts addressed the magistrate on the de-
fendants' behalf, stating that they had tickets for
the Alhambra, and felt much annoyed at being
refused admission. He was instructed that the
defendant George Ebers went back to get his money
returned on the other defendants being refused ad-
mission, that an altercation then ensued, that there
was a scuffle, and that Palmer's face was injured
in the course of it ; but that the defendant George
Ebers could not have struck Palmer, as he had not
the stick i❑ his possession at the time.
Mr. Knox said that he should impose a fine of
10s. each on Overton and the elder Ebers (Henry),
and he would take Henry Ebers's recognizance for
his son's appearance in a week.
Subsequently it was stated that the defendant
George Ebers had settled the matter with Palmer
by compensating him, and he was then discharged.
