POLICE IN7'.E'LLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

FOREIGN BURGLARS.—Two foreigners, named
Gustave Reiland and Alfred Davies, were charged,
before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with feloniously entering the
premises of Mr. Emile Agard, a French chemist, of
No. 147, Gerrard street, Soho, and stealing a quan-
tity of property.

The prosecutor, through Mr. Albert, the inter-
preter, said that on the previous night about nine
o'clock he went out, locking the door of his shop be-
fore going, and another door leading to the passage
was also locked. He returned in about half an
hour, and when he tried to open the street door
with his key he found something at the bottom of
the door which prevented him doing so, and at the
same time he heard the noise of the breaking of
glass. Having some suspicion that there were thieves
in the house he called " Police." Some persons
came, and he authorised them to break open the
door, and they did so, and he then went in
with a police-constable, who called his attention
to the door, which he had been unable to open, and
he then saw that it had been bolted by some person
in the inside, the scales and weights were gone from
the counter, the clock was removed from the place
where it had been hanging over the door, and a
pair of steps was standing there. There was on the
counter a hat not belonging to him (prosecutor).
On going into the parlour he found two bags filled
with his property (the bags were produced in court,
and contained a miscellaneous collection of pro-
perty). He then saw that the window of the
back parlour looking into the yard was open, he
having left it shut. A few minutes afterwards the
prisoners were brought back to his place, and at
that time several constables were present. In get-
ting out of the window of the parlour some glass
was broken, and there was blood near the place.
He had seen Reiland at a cafe, but hid never spoken
to him.

Police-constable James Adams, 135 C, sail that
the prosecutor, who was standing at his door, said
that be believed there were thieves in the place,
and that he could not get in. He sent for another
constable, and with the prosecutor's authority the
door was forced open. He found the property pro-
duced in the two bags packed up ready for re-
moval. The back parlour window was open. He
afterwards found Reunald at the public-house, and
the landlord stopped the other prisoner. •
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt the constable said
the public-house adjoined the back of the prosecu-
tor's house, and that Reiland had his hands cut.

James Clements, of No. 5, Tower-street, prove,'
that he went after one of the prisoners, and brought
him back.

Police-constable Weeks, 50 C R, said that on
searching Rennald he found upon him some skeleton
keys and a pair of razors.

Mr. Alford identified the razors as his property.

Mr. Albert informed Mr. Tyrwhitt that there had
been seven burglaries committed by foreigners
during the past fortnight.
Inspector Harrison said there had been several
robberies of a similar kind to the present lately, and
there was every reason to believe the prisoners were
concerned in them.

Weeks said that Reiland had no hat on, and on
his asking him if the hat on the counter belonged
to him, he replied " Oui, oui." He afterwards
found a key in the lock on the inside of the door,
and on showing it to the prisoner he said, " Yes,
it's mine ; you found in the passage duor." Rei-
land in getting out of the window hurt his foot and
cut his hand. On searching the prisoner's lodgings
he found there several files, saws, and keys.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners.

WESTMINSTER.

DARING ROBBERY AT A LICENSED VICTUALLERS.
—A young man in a linen apron, giving the name
of Thomas Saunders, was placed at the bar charged
with the following daring robbery

Miss Edith Robins, sister of the landlady of the
Montpelier Tavern, Brompton, said that at about
five o'clock yesterday afternoon the prisoner carne
to the bar and called for something, with which he
was served. Atter he had been there two or three
minutes there came in two other men, who
called for liquor and cigars. They were
both very chatty, and calling for cigars she
placed the box before them. They then asked
her to pick them a • cigar each, but
she declined saying that gentlemen generally picked
for themselves. While this was going on she missed
the prisoner, and, hearing a sound like the ringing
of silver money in the parlour behind the bar, sud-
denly entered it, and there found the prisoner,
whom she seized, and screamed for assistance,
thinking the gentlemen at the bar with the cigars
would come to her aid, but they did not. She tried
to hold the prisoner, but he got away from her, and
rushed into the street.

Mr. Arnold—Had he done anything in the par-
lour ?

Witness—Yes; he had stolen £5 from the side-
board in gold and silver, besides some copper
money.

Mr. Bates, 106, Maida-vale, said he was passing
and saw the prisoner running down M‘mtpelier-
place, Brompton. He went in front of him to stop
him, when prisoner drew his attention off by throw-
ing a handful of silver and coppers in his face. Ile
was captured, but escaped ; he was, however, pur-
sued and retaken.

A policeman proved that after he was captured
he threw the money away.

He was remanded.

THAMES.

FIRST SUMMARY CONVICTION FOR EMBEZZLEMENT.
Charles Edward Robb, aged 17 years, was brought
before Mr. Paget charged with feloniously em-
bezzling one sovereign he had received for and on
account of his master, Mr. David Waite, grocer
and cheesemonger, of No. 1, Spring Garden-place,
Stepney.
On the sth of the present month the prosecutor
entrusted his boy with a parcel of goods to deliver to
Mr. F. Wiek.ers, a customer of No. 70, Broad-street,
Rateliff. The price of the goods was lls 11d., and
prisoner received Bs. ld. of his master with the parcel
to enable him to give change fur a sovereign in ac-
cordance with a preconcerted arrangement with Mr.
\Vickers. The prisoner delivered the parc_l to Mr.
\\Tickers, received a sovereign from Lim, and gave
him Bs. Id. iu change. The prisoner did not return
to his master, and absconded with the money. He
was not heard of until yesterday, when he was
arrested by Henry Roper, a poice-constable, No.
42G R, to whom he said be was guilty, and that he
was tempted to change the sovereign.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said he had no
excuse to make.

Mr. Paget said the Legislature had recently given

power to the magistrates to deal summarily With
cases of embezzlement when a plea of guilty was
made by a party charged. He should exercise the
power the Legislature had conferred upon him by
sentencing the prisoner to six months' ituprison-
ment with hard labour.

THE POOR LITTLE VAG R ANT. —Emma Clark,
aged 10 years, was brought before Paget, on re-
mand, charged with vagrancy. The wretched child
was taken into custody by James Ilarvey, a police-
constable, No. 157 K, while she was running along-
side an omnibus in the Commercial-road. She was
throwing somersaults and tumbling among the boys,
and the passengers were encouraging the degrading
exhibition by flinging half-pence to her. She threw
away some of them when she was taken into custody,
and three half-pence was found upon her. Mr.
Benson condemned in forcible terms the encourage-
ment given by the foolish omnibus passengers to
vagrancy, and said it was shocking to hear that
a girl had unsexed herself by tumbling and
throwing somersaults in a public road. lle also
condemned the mother of the girl who had sent out
the child and a boy, her son, to commit acts of
vagrancy. Mr. Paget now endorsed every word
his colleague had said on this case, and said he
wished it were possible to punish omnibus passen-
gers who were absurd enough to throw halfpence to
the young vagrants tumbling in our public roads.
It was a great nuisance, and was attended with
danger.
The boy, in defence, said the policeman took 1110
because he knew I had been taken up before.
Mr. Paget—The policeman properly interfered.
Ile should have taken all the boy tumblers.
The Policeman—l could hardly hold her—she
nearly slipped through my fingers.

The mother of the girl said her son gave hip sister
money to bring home to her.

Mr. Paget—llow old is this girl?

The Mother—Not tea yet.

Mr. Paget said he should give
effect to the de-
termination of his colleague; b. nd take her daughter
away from her. The mother was quite unfitted to
have the care of the chila whom she had demora-
lised. He ordered that the child should be sent to
an industrial school in Sloane-street, Chelsea, and
detaiued there till she was 16 years of age.
The Mother—l want to take her home.
Mr. Paget—You shall not have her again.
