The amount of stolen property at present" circu- lated " by the Metropolitan Police has become so inordinately large as to prejudice or destroy the practical value of the records, and it has been found necessary to limit it very considerably. It has been decided, therefore, to discontinue the " cir- culation " in Informationsand Pawnbrokers'Lists of all property stolen in the provinces, unless where there are grounds for believing that the property has found its way to the Metropolis. Chief Con- stables are requested accordingly, when forwarding lists of stolen property to Scotland Yard, to send with them a letter to that effect. And if bills or circulars are received in future, unaccompanied by such a letter, it will be assumed that the " circula- tion " of the particulars they contain is not desired. The same course will be followed with respect to property lost and persons missing. 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.
