ADMITS HE COMMITTED
ONE HUNDRED CRIMES
Foreign CORRESPONDENCE Of The Star.

/ Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
LONDON, June 3. 1911.
Il believe it was the pride of Dick Tur-
pin to explain how many hundreds or
thousands of crimes he had committed,
but | have never seen anything in real
life like the way in which you pride your
self on telling how you committed the
crimes 1t beats the record.
This statement was made by Judge Rem
tout at the Old Bailey to Harold Philip
Trevor, aged thirty-four. the man who had
the mutiny at Maidstone prison five years
ago, when soldiers with fixed bay onets
were called to restore order. Trevor, who
is an architect in his spare time, admitted
to a policeman that he had committed loo
crimes In five weeks.
He was charged in court this week with
theft in the West End. He is tall. we'll
built man, smartly dressed. carries NM
self with distinction and speaks In cul-
tured tones. Mr.. Beard, who prosecuted,
told the Judge that Trevor was most
plausible thief. who traded on his smart:
well-set-up appearance. and he related
how Trevor visited furnished houses WITH
permits to view them.
An Astonishing Record.
Detective Inspector Barrett of Scotland
Yard gave the court an astonishing ac-
count of Trevor's criminality
He was educated at SOuthgate College
to become an architect. his parents then
being well-to-do people in kensingtoh,
he stated. I'm May, 1896 ne was pound
over at the South London sessions for
stealing a purse. and September % of the
same year he enlisted in the Royal Ma
rines. In May, 1898. he deserted from
H. M. s. Pembroke at Chatham, ana
was taken back, only to desert again the
following December.
Two days after deserving he enlisted
in the Grenadier Guards and deserted the
next day. He then began criminal sp-
erations in the midlands, and for various
offenses was bound over al Stafford In
March, 1890. when his parents sent him
to Canada. After a short stay there he
returned. and was again convicted at the
Niddlesex sessions in October. 1892 and
sentenced to eighteen months for theft.
