POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Tht Day.

MARLBOROUGII-STREET.

SINGULAR CHARGE OF OBTAINING MONEY BY FALSE
PRETENCES.—CharIes Agreton, a young man bearing the
aliases of Thompsett, Clifton, &c., was charged before Mr
Tyrwhitt, on a warrant, with obtaining the sum of 10s.
from Mr. Reginald York; of No. 45, St. James's-place, St.
James's-street.

Mr. Yorke said that on the 12th February, between six
and seven in the evening, he was coming out of the St
James's- Club, when he saw a person standing at the cor-
ner of the street. When he got to his door some one said,
" Well, old fellow, I must offer you a thousand apologies
for stopping you, but I want to speak to you." On turn-
ing round he recognised the prisoner as the man he had
seen standing at the corner of the street when he came
out of the club. The prisoner then told him a
long story to the effect that he was a gentleman,
and had been an officer in a Hussar regiment,
and that like many other young men he had kept a young
woman, led a dissipated life, and gone "down the hill."
He mentioned the name of Nellie Harrison as that of the
female, said he resided in Lupres-street, Pimlico, with her,
and that he had seen her that day in the Burlington-
arcade, but that she passed him by, and the climax of the
story was that he had forged his father's name to a bill for
£450. He said Cox and Co., the army agents, knew all
about him, and would speak of him, and on his asking for
some money he gave the prisoner 10s., Relieving his
story. The prisoner again saw him, and telling him that
he was going to see Mr. Woodgate, one of the Oxford
boat, at Richmond, he gave him some clothes to assist
him in going. The prisoner also told him that his father
kept a hall in Sussex, and his mother a villa at Venice ;
but, from inquiries he (Mr. Yorke) had made, he
found that he was not known at Cox's, at
the War-office, that no such person of the
name had a hall in Sussex, and instead
of his mother being at Venice, she was in prison
for an omnibus robbery. He had also ascertained that the
prisoner so far ingratiated himself with a gentleman, a
member of a c►ub, as to be invited by the gentleman to
dine at the club, and that in the course of an altercation,
the waiter having said something which offended the pri-
soner, he went to the waiter and demanded a sovereign as
compensation.

- -
Sergeant Shillingford, 4 0, said the prisoner was once
before charged with begging of a member of a club, but
discharged ; and he was also once charged with represent-
ing himself as a detective agent.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner.
BREAKING A WOMAN'S ARM.—Thomas Ryan, of 41,
King-street, described as a ship's steward, was charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt with violently assaulting his wife,
Ann Ryan, and breaking her arm with a poker.
Robert Beales, 134 0, said that shortly after 12 o'clock on
Saturday night he was called to 41, King-street, and found
the wife of the prisoner with her arm bleeding, and she
said the prisoner had struck her with a poker. He took
the prisoner into custody, and the injured woman went to
the Charing-cross Hospital, and was still there, unable to
move.

The constable then handed the following certificate to
the magistrate :

" Charing-cross Hospital, March 12.
" This is to cortify that Ann-Regan is a patient of this
hospital, suffering from a compound fracture of the arm,
" 0. W. BERRY, House Surgeon."
The prisoner said his wife was as violent as himself, and
did not wish to attend. She had once stabbed him.

Fanny Seal, a lodger in the same house, said that between
12 and 1 o'clock on Sunday morning she heard the prisoner
come up stairs, and directly he entered his room he walked
to the fireplace, and took up a poker. Directly afterwards
she heard the sound of three blows, and the wife scream
out, and afterwards the wife said her husband had broken
her arm.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would remand the prisoner, and he
would not take bail.
