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 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 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. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT.

Police of towns and counties are requested to seDd particulars of any transactions with the above firm, which may have come to their notice, to Assistant Commissioner, Criminal Investigation Department, Great Scotland Yard, London. C A UT IONS. 110.— The attention of Police is again directed to the operations of J. WILBEY, 29, Hunsdon- road, New Cross, London. He advertises in the daily and other newspapers under his own name and that of Julia Fisher, requesting persons possessed of a sewing machine to communicate with him, enclosing stamped envelope. On receipt of the envelope he writes stating that for the sum of Is. Id. he will supply a pamphlet describing how £ 55 a year was earned by means of a sewing machine, and although the money is generally obtained, the pamphlet is not forthcoming. This man also resorts to a form of swindling under the name of " The Novelty Publishing Co." He sends out lists of publications with suggestive titles, which he intimates are of a very extraordinary character, and for which he charges high prices. Any customer who is deluded into sending him money receives a pamphlet of little value, and free from such obscenity as would justify legal proceedings being taken against him. ( See Caution, Case No. 106, 28tli November, 1884.) 111.— The attention of Police is specially directed to the proceedings of a man representing himself as PRINCE GEORGE ERISTOFF DE GOURIO of Russia, who calls on jewellers and orders jewellery of considerable value, stating that the articles are re- quired for wedding presents. He usually gives cheques in payment on the West London Commercial Bank, Earl's Court- road, where he had a small account about 2 years since. The cheques are returned marked " no effects," but in cases in which it is anticipated that criminal proceedings might be instituted, pay- ment has generally been arranged. He is, it is be- lieved, a foreigner of rank, but his action is fraudu- lent. Description— Age 28, height 5 ft. 10 in., slight, complexion sallow, hair, whiskers, and moustache ( thin) black, prominent lips ; dress, dark clothes, high hat, speaks with a foreign accent, and is stated to be a Russian from the Caucasus. 112.— The attention of Police is directed to the pro- ceedings of TWO MEN, stated to be brothers, who are travelling in the provinces as photographers, and obtaining money by false pretences. They represent themselves as agents for Messrs. Hope Bros, and Co., and T. Hinton and Co., 2, Colvin- street, Hammer- smith, London, and request permission to photograph shops, with a view of publishing a photographic directory. By these means they obtain orders for photographs, which are never completed. In many cases they have obtained part payment for the goods, and have given printed receipts bearing the names of the above firms, who cannot be traced.
