atcally robbed his employer.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Smith appeared
at the police station and asked that an
officer come at once to his place, as he had
detected one of his clerks in the act of
pocketinc a pair of gloves and several silk
handkerchiefs. He did not wish the man
TO be prosecuted, but simply forced to dis
gorge what had been taken. Officer Rob-
bins was sent to the store, and on the way
met Frazer, who had left the place and
and started for the station. On the way
Frazer thrust pair of new kid gloves into
the hands of a passer-by on the street, but
was detected and the articles appropriated
An attempt was also made to throw away
the handkerchiefs, but this was also frus-
trated.

Among the instructions of the court
were the following:
