IDENTIFICATION OF PRISONERS. METROPOLITAN POLICE DISTRICT. The Editor desires to call attention to the fact that all photographs of prisoners in custody, transmitted to the Director of Criminal Investigations, for purposes of identification are seen- by the police or warders who visit all prisoners under reinand, in the Metropolitan Police District three times a weelt. This system, esta- blished in 1879, has been th'o. means of ascertaining the previous convictions of 7000 prisoners, and affords great facilities to Chief Officers of Police, and the Governors of Her Majesty's Prisons, Such photographs are also compared with the albums in the Convict Office con- taining the portraits of all Convicts liberated in the Kingdom, which are further open to the personal examination of any police officer or warder.
