THE FRAUDS ON THE GREAT
NORTHERN RAILWAY.

CENTRLiL CRIMINAL COURT.—(Tars DAY.)

(Before Mr. Baron Martin and Mr. Justice WilleB.)

Leopold Redpath and Cbarles James Conayns Kent
were placed at the bar this morning to answer the in.
dictments of fraud and forgery preferred agaiust them by
the Directors of the Great Northern Railway Company.

Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, Mr. Bodkin, and Mr. Gif-
fard prosecuted ; Mr. Sergeant Parry and Mr. Tindal
Atkinson defended Redpath ; Mr. Hawkins and Mr.
Thompson defended Kent.

On the learned julges taking their seats on the bench
Kent was ordered to retire, and Redpath was tried
singly, upon one of the indictments charging him with
forgery. The document was described as a transfer of
a stock, and there were a variety of counts in order to
meet any legal difficulties that might arrise.
Mr. Sergeant Baliantine, in addressing the jury, ex-
plained the nature of the prisoner's duty as the transferer
of Stock in the Great Northern Railway. The particular
charge was that of forging and uttering a transfer deed,
numbered 3,623. It appeared from ao exatnina...ion of
the books that an amount of stock was brought into the
books of the Company about the time the forgery was
alleged to have taken pace, in favour of John Morris,
who was described as of Manningtree, Essex, gentleman,
and rho manner in which it was brought in appeared t}y
the books of the company in the following entries,
"OB 197 B," which represented the old books of the
company folio 197 B. The name of the atte.ting wit-
ness was Shaw. Not only were there no such per.ions
as Morris and Shaw, but there were no such entries in
the old books as indicated by the numbers in the new
books. The accouitt was altogether fictitious— an in-
vention of Redpath's for the purpose of establishing that
fraud which he ultimately carried out.
Evidence was then adduced.to bear out the statements
of the learned gentleman, which was merely a rec:apitu•
lation of the evidence published in The Sint during the
examination of the prisoner at Clerken well Police-court.
Mr. Sergeant Parry having addressed the Court for
the prisoner,

Pm

The Jury retired, and, after a short ahsenc,?, returned
into Court, and gave a verdict of "Guilty."
Leopold Redpath and Charles James C.)myn Kert
were then arraigned for feloniously forging and uttering
a transfer to George Sidney, with intent to defraud.
The particulars of this ease were similar to the last
and, as the facts are so fresh in the recollection of the
public, it is unnecessary now to repeat then.
After the examination of a numb,-r witnesses, the
jury found a verdict of guilty against Redpath, and ac.
quitted Kent. (Applause )
Mr. Justice Willis sentenced Redpath to transporta-
tion for life. _ _

The other indiotmenti against the prisoners were
withdrawn.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

MAMLBORO UGH-STREET.

T,
11.011BEBY BY A SHOPWOMAN.—Maria Collins, a
young woman in the service of Mr. William Forsyth,
draper, No. 1, Little Newport-street, was brought be-
fore Mr. Bingham, charged with robbing her employer.
Mrs. Forsyth, tshose husband was too ill to appear,
stated that the prisoner had been in their employ as a
shopwoman for the last ten weeks, and yesterday, in
consequence of a piece of binding disappearing in a very
mysterious manner, she caused a strict search to be
made, but without success. In the cour,e of the after.
noon the prisoner went upstairs to her room to change
her dress, and onjer return she told the apprentice to
look in the haberdashery drawer, where no doubt he
would find the missing piece of binding. He did so, and
there found the artic'e, which he brought to witness, and
having related the ei rcum stance attending its diFcavery she
at once suspected the prisoner's honesty, and she called
her and the other assistants before her, and, as a matter
of form, suggested that their boxes should tie searched.
The prisoner strongly objected to 811,36 a proceeding, and
protested her indignation at being suspected to be a
thief. Witness persisted in searching her boxes, and the
prisoner then rau up into Mr. Forsyth's room, and at
once confessed that she had soma of his prop,,rty in her
box. The prisoner then made her way out of the house
into the street, followed by the apprentice, who brought
her back. A constable was then sent fr, and, in his
presence, her boxes was searched, and 17 pairs of stock-
ings, several' bandkerchiefe, and a quantity of under
clothing, of the value of 4l 75., was found therein. The
prisoner begged forgiveness, and said it was her fir-4
offence. She was then taken to the station-house.
Remanded for a week.

CORN EXCLIANGE.

Compared with last week we have had a slight increase
in the arrivals of English wheat coastwise. Fresh up to-
day, however, the receipts by land carriage were small,
and the show of sampl..s was consequently limited. Fine
dry qualities realised full prices with a moderate inquiry ,
but other kinds were very dull, yet we cannot call thorn
cheaper. Over 10,000 quarters of wheat hive come in.
The amount of business doing in all kinds was limited, yet
Monday's prices were supported.
Floating cargoes were held at full currencies.
There was a fair inquiry for oats, and Atooday's price s
were supported.
Beans, peas, and flour were unaltered in value.

There was about an average of beasts on sale in to-day's
market. For all kinds we had a dull inquiry r.t Monday's
currency. The show of sheep was limited; nevertheless
the mutton trade ruled heavy. In prices, however, no
change took place. Calves were in short supply and steady
request, at an improvement in value of 2d per Sibs. Pigs
sold slowly on former terms. Milch cows wore very dull.
