STEALING BANK NOTES.—REFUSAL To ALLOW A CON-
STABLE TO SEARCH A PRISONER'S BOXES.—Ann Hem-
minway, 17, was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with
stealing two £lO notes, tho property of Mr. George
Arnold, No. 3, St. 31artin's:piaco.
Mrs. Elizabeth Arnold, wife of tho prosecutor, stated
that on Sunday last she missed two £lO notes from a
work-box is her bedroom, and believing that the prisoner,
who had been in her service, but left on the previous
Thursday, had stolen them, she communicated with the
police.

The prisoner said if her mistress would let her off she
would pay her every quarter-day her wages.

Police-constable Butcher, a plain clothes officer of the C
division, said that yesterday evening he went to No. 158,
Adelaide-road, St. John's-wood, whore the prisoner was
living in service, and on telling her the charge she said
that she had taken the notes, ono before Christmas and
the other afterwards. The prisoner said she had picked
up with a young man whose name she did not know, and
he wanted money, and she took the notes for the purpose
of giving him some mousy, and he afterwards went away,
and she saw no more of him, and that, having left No. 3,
St. Martin'-place, she got another situation. The prisoner's
master refused to let him see the prisoner's boxes, al-
though the prisoner's master admitted that she had laid
out a good deal of money on clothes, and that they were in
the boxes. The superintendent had told him to apply to
his worship to know what he was to do in the case.
Mr. Tyrwhitt asked Mrs. Arnold whether she had missed
anything else beside the notes.
Mrs. Arnold said a gentleman in the house had missed
15s. worth of stamps. She did not know whether thepri-
soner had them in her box or not.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said that before a search warrant was
granted the officer had better go to the person and explain
the state of things.
Butcher said that on showing tho gentleman his warrant
card last night he told him that anything could get such a
thing as that, and for aught he know, ho (Butcher) might
bo an omnibus driver.

Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week, and
said if necessary a search warrant would be granted.
