POLICE INT.

;.—(This Day).

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN EXPENT3IVI7IOiETLAt:gustus Lascelles, an ill-
looking Frenchman, was brought before Mr. Bingham,
charged with attempting to garotte Pierre Sartori, the
manager of the Turkish Divan, 68, Haymarket.
It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, which
was interpreted- to the Court by Mr. Albert, that about
two o'c'ock this morning he was proceeding down the
Haymarket, dressed in the Turkish costume, when the
prisoner came stealthily behind him, and seized him with
both hands by the throat, with the intention no doubt of
garotting a-ol then •robbing him. Prosecutor alter a
sharp struggle managed to get out of the prisoner's grasp,
and as soon as he could cry out, he called police, and a
constable came up and rescued him from the prisoner
who was taken to the Ftation.

Police-constable 117 0, said on hearing the cry of
" Police," he ran to the spot and saw the prisoner in
the act of grasping the prosecutor by the throat, and
three more apparently companions of the prisoner were
standing close by looking on. Witness at once ran up
and collared the prisoner, but the other three men ran
off.

Mr. Albert proved that the prisoner was a notorious
bad character, having been sentenced to the galeya for
five years. He, however, contrived to effect his escape
from France before the sentence was carried out. The
prisoner had also been convicted in this country.
The prisoner, in defence, said it was all a joke, and
pinching the prosecutor he merely intended to frighten
him.

Mr. Bingham was inclined to think that a robbery was
not intended. A serious assault had, however, been
committed, for which he must be fined 51, or two
months.
