CAUTION a i— number cation " November, 1883. 3.— It is particularly requested that any complaints - as to the non- delivery or of irregularity in the date of delivery of the POLICE GAZETTE, may be at once noti- fied to the Editor. SPECIAL NOTICE. It will greatly facilitate the transaction of business, if in all telegrams to Great Scotland Yard regarding - criminal matters, the name and official designation of the sender are telegraphed. FUGITIVE OFFENDERS. A case has come under the notice of the Editor, in which a person whose apprehension was sought in England, and who was described in the POLICE GAZETTE, gave himself up to the Colonial Police. The prosecutor declined to take any further action the matter, but the case necessitated the dispatch of two telegrams, the cost of which had to be refunded by him. To avoid such expense, the Editor requests, that if there is reason to believe that a fugitive offender is likely to go to the Colonies, and the prosecutor is un- willing to incur any expense, with a view to obtain his surrender, a notification be made in the communi- cation sent to this Office to the effect that the offender not to be arrested beyond the United Kingdom. The necessity for the adoption of such a course wiH be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies. Mr. Monro^ 1 Assistant Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis, has received several very similar Circulars to those issued from Geneva in December last by Williams and Co., alias Murray and Kurr, offering certain induce- ments to purchase cheap watches. They purport to emanate from a firm calling itself '' The Anglo- Swiss Watch Company, Gentva." The Director's name is given as " Mr. Charles Magni?, M. P., late Presi- dent of the Tribunal of Commerce, now Judge of the Tribunal of Commerce." Bankers— The Agence Eiuan- ciere, Geneva. The circular states that it is intended to issue a million of circulars in this country and Italy. Mr. Monro begs to call the attention of the Chief Constables of Counties and Boroughs to this Company. The Geneva Police write that M. Magniu is a Swiss citizen, who is entered in the Trade Register as " The Director of the Permanent Watch Company." By these means he has established the Anglo- Swiss Wratcli Company, of which Kurr and Company are sleeping partners, and M. Magnin is the only person authorised to sign for the Company, and is responsible in law. He is also stated to be a Deputy and a Judge at the Commercial Tribunal, and has always borne a good character. From information otherwise received, there is good reason to doubt the stability of M. Magnin's credit, and his financial circumstances are not prosperous. 2 THE POLICE GAZETTE. TUESDAY, MAY 25, 1886. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT.
