BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

William Harris, a waiter at the King William the
Fourth Hotel, King William-street, Strand, was charged
with stealing a silk umbrella, the property of Mr. Core-
thorne. The prosecutor stated that he went into the
King William Hotel last night with two friends to
supper. He bad a silk umbrella in his hand, and he laid
it down in the chair. When they were about to leave,
the umbrella was not to be found. The only person in
the room while the prosecutor was taking his supper was
the prisoner. Some time was taken up in looking for
the umbrella, and the landlady ultimately found it b)
the side of the prisoner's bed. He was of course given
into custody.
The prisoner, in his defence, said that his master had
got up a conspiracy against him, as lie was.to leave his
service this morning. The gentleman with whom he
was to live came last night and got his (the prisoner's)
character, which was given by his master, and with
which the gentleman was satisfied.
Mr. TWYFORD said it would be necessary for the land-
lady of the King William the Fourth to attend to give
evidence. It was a very common thing for waiters when
they left hotels to carry off anything they could easily
lay their hands on.—The prisoner was then remanded.

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
A young man named Shiel was charged with creating
a violent disturbance in the St. Pancras workhouse.

It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Lee, the master,
that the prisoner, who has been twelve times punished for
similar misconduct, is in the habit of instigating the
other paupers to rebel against the workhouse discipline.
On the previous day he became exceedingly riotous, and
when checked by the porter, became so violent that the
whole workhouse was thrown into a state of confusion.

He was sent to prison for seven days.
A person named .Regan was charged with stealing a
gold
.chain and watch, the property of Mr. Mayell, of
Titchfield-street, Soho, coal-merchant.

The robbery was fully established, the property having
been found in the prisoner's boot.---Committed for trial.

UNION-HALL.—(THIS DAY.)
Thomas Davis was charged before Mr. Trail! with
stealing a purse, containing money, the property of Mrs.
Thompson, during the fire at the terminus of the South-
Eastern Railway.
The complainant stated, that having occasion to pass
• near the scene of the conflagration at the terminus, near
the Bricklayers' Arms, on Monday night, she felt a hand
in her pocket. On turning round she observed the pri-
soner and a little boy, the latter of wham ran amongst
the crowd and escaped, but she called out and gave the
prisoner into custody.
A witness stood forward, who stated that he saw the
boy thrust his hand into the complainant's pocket, and
draw forth a purse, which he handed over to the pri-
soner,and then ran away. The prisoner, however, con-
trived to get rid of the purse on being taken into custody.
The prisoner said that he went to look at the fire, and
that he knew nothing about the stealing of the purse—
that he had no Nmpanion.
A policeman said the prisoner was the associate of
thieves, and that he and the boy alluded to were regular
pickpockets, and always hovering about the terminus of
the railway.
Mr. TRAILL remanded the prisoner until the boy is
taken into custody.
