COPPER FOR GOLD.
Bank Of England Branch Swindled in
an Unusual Way.

an Unusual Way.
A remarkable story Of ~halfpennies
being substituted for half-sovereigns
was told at the Manchester city police
court, says the London Daily Mail,
when Henry Douglas Anderson, who
had been employed at the Manchester
branch of the Bank of England and
after absconding had been arrested in
Canada. was charged with stealing
G1,0S1.
In stating the case for the prosecu-
ton f. E. Smith, M. P, said that the
prisoners duty was that of separating
lightweight gold coins from those of
full weight, and he had to put the full
weight coins into bags which he had
to label and sign. On July 81 he alb
sented himself. and on Aug. 2 the bank
issued twenty-five bags of half-sover-
eigns to Messrs. Williams, Deacon's
bank, and fourteen of them. which had
been made up by the prisoner, were
found to have been tempered with,
half-sovereigns having been replaced
by the necessary number of half-pen-
MES to make up the correct weight.
Two other bags in the banks treasury
which bore his signature were also
found to have been tempered with in
the same way, and the total sum miss
ing was 91,0S1.
On Sept. 10 the bank received a let
ter from the prisoner in Winnipeg, in
which he practically admitted his
guilt and made reference to the mad
act he had committed.
Evidence was given by a number of
bank clerks, including a retired detec-
tive inspector, named John Woolven,
who, describing his search for Ander.

on-Sea and found the prisoners wife
and family living there. In a drawer
he found 3647.
