SPECIAL NOTICE. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT. THE amount of stolen property at present " circu- lated " by the Metropolitan Police has become so in- ordinately 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 " circulation " in Informa- tions and Pawnbrokers' Lists of all property stolen in the provinces, unless where there are grounds for be- lieving that the property has found its way to the Metropolis. Chief Constables are requested accor- dingly, 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 " circulation " of the particulars they contain 1S not desired. The same course will be followed with respect to Property lost and persons missing.
