CHARGE OF FRAUD.

At the Mansion House yesterday Francisco Ae'
tonio Pedrosa D'Albuquerque, 38, a ship chand!er,
in St. George's-street, East, was charged before
Alderman Sir Francis Graham Moon, on a warrant,
with obtaining by false pretences, on the 2Gth of
December last, a cheque for £495, with intent to
defraud.

Mr. Edward Moss prosecuted ; the prisoner WAS
defended by Mr. Sergeant Sleigh.
The prisoner had been arrested on a sworn infer-
mation of Messrs. Charles Price and Co., insurance
brokers, Cornhill, in which it was alleged that the
prisoner insured with them on the 21st of Januntl'
1868, the tackle and stores of the Italian ship ll'2r"
nard for the sum of £5OO. On the 28th of October
in the same year the prisoner said that the shill
had become a total loss, and made arplication fer
the amount of the policy. The money was paid less
commission, the prisoner receiving a cheque
£495. Previously, however, on the sth November
certain inquiries were made by the underwriter'
and the prisoner communicated to Messrs. Price „is
statement that the insurance had been made ult
rigging, outfit, canvas, and spare sails.
answer being considered satisfactory, a cheque sv„ae
handed to a Mr. Neal, a clerk to the prisoner. I",
payment was made on the faith of the truth 0:0
those statements of the prisoner. The insuralli
would not have been paid on the loss of consumable
stores.

The principal witness was Richard Neal, i;
merly commercial traveller and boekeeper to t'
prisoner, who carries on the business of ash itP

chandler, sailmaker, and provision merchant in t
George's-in-the-East. He entered bin employmiefile

was employed by the defendant to effect the polle:
in question in January, 1868, and recollected;
the circumstances of the ship being returned oa tho
28th of October following as a total loss. 11° also
remembered the prisoner receiving a letter from
underwriters in November, and to being warned 0,
him not to state in the answer anything about
visions or else the policy might not be paid. i'ibo
t
ness cautioned the defendant to be careful, for 'O,
underwriters might require a copy of the iayeiceof
He knew as a fact that there were £3OO wortti '0
provisions on board the vessel when it started
the voyage in Aug. 1867, and that they were lib
,o
to have been consumed in three months. Witneso
replies to the inquiries of the underwriters fiver,
written by instruction of the prisoner, and the Pro to
siots were not mentioned. The canvas sup Plied
vd
the Bernard was from Messrs. Douglas, Frazer' s,i.
Sons, and cost £Bl. It was described in the el.'"et
nal invoice as "best long flax," but the Pris°tioiti
in giving au account of the stores to the caPrior
described it as " extra all long flax," a sePe-fot
quality; and made an addition to the Price kel
profits. The canvas was also differently marto
by order of the defendant, and the original 01a id
destroyed. The cheque of Messrs. Price was ~fthe
in by witness to the defendant's account at
London and Westminster Bank.
