SPECIAL NOTICE. 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 in 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 unwilling to incur any expense with a view to obtain his surrender, a notification be made in the communication sent to this Office to the effect that the offender is not to be arrested beyond the United Kingdom. The necessity for the adoption of such a course will be apparent from the fact that the POLICE GAZETTE is circulated in the Colonies. SPECIAL NOTICE. PORTRAITS OF CRIMINALS AND ENGRAVINGS OF STOLEN PROPERTY- THE attention of Chief Constables is called to the alteration in Regulation 5 as to the charges for engraving portraits of criminals, and sketches of stolen property, which will in future be at the rate of 7s. per portrait and from 5s. to 10s. per sketch of a stolen article.
