POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

BOW-STREET.

THE FRAUD ON THE INLAND REVENUE.—Sydney
Charles Jackson, pawnbroker's assistant, was
placed at the bar charge.' with being concerned in
the fraud on the Inland Revenue which has lately
been discovered.

It will be recollected that a man named Monk is
at present under remand on a charge of fraudu-
lently transposing certain stamps whereby a number
of cancelled forcign bill stamps were made to ap-
pear as new and genuine stamps, ranging from 53.
to £1 each. The frauds were accomplished by re-
moving the Queen's head from a now penny stamp,
placing it neatly over the cancelled mark on the
old one. The trick had been most perfectly per-
formed, and it is feared that it has been carried oa
to some considerable extent.

Police Sergeant Kerley said, in consequence of
certain directions he, that morning, went to Ilford
gaol, and there, on the prisoner leaving it, he
arrested him, and told him the charge.against him,
namely, transposing stamps with intent to defraud
the Commissioners of Inland Revenue. He said he
could tell where he got the stamps from. lie ob-
tained them from a man named Mark, who stopped
him at the corner of Bryan-place, Caledonian-road,
and said he had just had some money left
him, part of which was in stamps. He gave him the
stamps produced, and asked him to pawn them after
which he (prisoner) took them to some pawn-
brokers in the borough, who refuses to have any-
thing to do with them. He afterwards went to a
jeweller's in Whitechap and purchased a watzh,
and he also obtained another watch under similar
circumstances in the Whitechapel-road, and then
handed up the ticket. With the remainder of stamps
he purchased some clothes at Mr. Moses's, Isling-
ton-green. He (witness) asked him if he had known
the man Monk before, and he replied that he had
seen him some time previous at the shop of his
(prisoner's) master, Mr. Mallett, a pawnbroker in
the Caledonian-road. Ile (prisoner) had iden-
tified Mank as the parson from whom he had
receive I the stamps. Oa searching him ho
found the card of the tradesman of whom ho hal
bought the watch and chain. Some other pawn-
brokers' tickets were found iu his pockets.
Inspector Brennan produced a number of frau-
dulent stamps, which he had received. from Mr.
Harris, one of the tradesmen of whom he had
bought the watch and chain.

Prisoner was remanded for a week, when he
will be placed at the bar in company with Monk.

MARLBOROUGII-STREEL

DARING ROBBERY.— Henry King, address refused,
but describing himself as a clerk, was charged be-
fore Mr. Knox with stealing from the person of
Mr. Christian Olifiers, a merchant residing at No.
4, Devonshire-terrace, Kingsland-green, a gold
watch and chain of the value of £l3.

When the prisoner was taken into custody a shani
watch, known by the slang of a " Spide," was found
in his possession.

Mr. °Hers, a Dutch mer6ant, said about 12
o'clock last night he was in Regent-street, when
prisoner ran up and tore his watch and chain away
and ran off. He cried " Stop thief," and the
police stopped him and brought him back. The
robbery was an instantaneous one, and done very
cleverly. The police acted so well in the matter
that he should like to leave them somo thing, so

that their meritorious conduct might In mentioned
in the papers.

Mr Knox asked Inspector Bason what was the
usual coarse ?

Inspector Bison said the constables might receive
a reward, but would have to report the circum-
stance to the commissioners of police.
Police-constable Tyler, 52 C, said that hearing
a cry of " Stop thief," and seeing the prisoner run-
ning, he stopped him, when he said that it was only
a lark. He took the prisoner into custody, and
found the watch in his hand.

Police-constable Weeks, 55 C R, said that while
with Tyler he saw the prisoner put his hand up his
back and drop the watch. The prisoner said he was
a fool to have gone the way he did, and that he had
better taken the park.

Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, and desired
that he might be well looked after.

Mr. Olitiers handed a sovereign to Mr.•lnspoctor
Bayou for the constables.
