THE PLATE ROBBERY CASE.
LIVEBPOOL, TILUESDAY.—It will be remembered
that the prisoner Sirrell was remanded by the county
magistrates on Tuesday in order that he might be
brought up before Mr. Rushton, the stipendiary ma-
gistrate, on a charge of receiving some plate, sup-
posed to have been transmitted by M'Guire, the pro-
duce of a robbery at the house of Mrs. Tinley, No.
4, Peel-street, Liverpool. The prisoners Sirrell and
M'Guire were accordingly placed in the dock at the
Borough Court at ten o'clock this morning. It was,
however, understood that the cave would not be gone
into, owing to a deficiency in the evidence. Mr.
Lewis was again in attendance on behalf of Sirrell,
but M'Guire had not the advantage of the presence of
his legal adviser, Mr. Simon. Mr. Dowling, the chief
officer of police, conducted the prosecution.
The magistrates on the bench were Mr. Rushton,
Mr. R. E. Harvey, Mr. T. IL S, and Mr. C.
Turner.
Mr. Rushton on entering the court immediately
I ordered that the prisoners should be brought up.
The prisoner M`Guire, who is a young, fresh-
coloured man, then stepped forward to the front of
the dock, but Sirrell, who appeared less unconcerned
than at the recent examination before the county ma-
gistrates, retired to the back and sat down during the
brief conference which ensued.
Mr. Rushton (to Mr. Dowling)—These prisoners
have, I understand, been remanded to enable me to
investigate an additional case to those already gone
into before the county magistrates—a case of robbery
within the borough ? Mr. Dowling—They have.
Mr. Rushton—And I understand the evidence to
be this—that certain plate was stolen within the bo-
rough of Liverpool, transmitted by railroad in a tin
canister, the tin canister having at the top a label
running thus :—" Martin M'Guire, 32, School-lane."
T
his was found in possession of the prisoner Sirrell
by the London officers, Inspector Lund and Ser-
geant Whitcher, and the Liverpool officer Keogh.
Now, have you any proof of M'Guire's handwriting?
Mr. Dowling—l have no proof of the handwriting.
I had better at once state that as a fact ; and it would
be folly goinginto the case, as it would waste the
time of the Court to no purpose.
Mr. Rushton—Then the prisoner Sirrell is trans-
mitted back to the county jurisdiction to await the
decision of the county magistrates.
