The follow- ing particulars give the modus operandi of the frauds in each case, but it must be clearly under- stood that no action can be taken by Police against the offenders unless process is first obtained by some person defrauded. MESSRS. DOREY LESTER & CO., KILBURN. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 62292.) This firm distribute circulars in Great Britain and abroad, describing jewellery and other articles which they offer for sale at an exceptionally low price, giving some special reason for the charge being so small, and representing the real value to be much greater than the sum asked for. They enclose a coupon to be signed and returned with the purchase- money, and, on the article being sup- plied, it is found to be of little or no value. In some instances the property purchased is never received at all. LANCELOT DOREY LESTER is the only representative of the firm, and he is a dealer in mock jewellery and other worthless goods. ERNEST DAT, 439, OLD KENT ROAD, S. E. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 56664.) This man is a waste- paper dealer, and forwards letters to persons— mostly in a good social position— stating that some portrait, picture, ancestral arms, or crest of a late member of the family to which the person he is addressing belongs, has come into his possession owing to the death of his mother, who received it from one of the family in question, and he regrets that, owing to straightened circumstances, he is compelled to sell the article, and he offers it for two or three guineas, and, if necessary, he will forward it on approval. The articles he thus deals in are worthless, and are, no doubt, expressly collected by him with a view to defraud. THE REV. JOSEPH HOLMES, BLOOMSBURY MANSIONS, BLOOMSBURY SQUARE. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 47741.) An American named JAMES HOLLAND rents an office at the above address, and advertises largely in daily newspapers in London and provincial towns. The advertisement is headed " A Card," anddescribes " The Rev. Joseph Holmes' Mexican Prescription No. 1" as a certain cure for weakness, nervous debility, & c., and, on being communicated with. forwards copyright of the prescription and circular describing how it was discovered, & c. " The Rev. Joseph Holmes " is a myth, and the name is simply used to mislead the public. THE REY. J. " WOOD, BUSBY HOUSE, 5, BUSBY PLACE, N. W. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 78041.) In this case advertisements are inserted in news- papers, headed " Nervousness, " Weakness, <£ c.," and stating that a minister who has suffered in this way will forward free of charge, on receipt of stamped envelope, physician's prescription which cured him; address " The Rev. J. Wood, Busby House, 5, Busby Place, N. W. On being written to, copyright of recipe and circular describing " The Rev. J. " Wood's Corrossa Compound," stating the prescription will be for- warded at cost price, viz., 18s. 9d. There is no such person at the address given, and the prescription is believed to be worthless. The business is carried on by a couple of irascible women, who meet complaints by a threat to throw water over the inquirer. THE IMPERIAL PORTRAIT ASSOCIATION. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 74139.) This business is carried on at 9 and 11, Grace Hill- avenue, Folkestone, " President, CHARLES BERESFORD." The man advertises by circular letter, offering to make " two- guinea life- size Fnsain portraits, free of charge, and send them as adver- tisments to chosen houses throughout Great Britain and France." He exacts a promise from the re- cipient to " have the portrait suitably framed," and this is construed to mean " framed BT HIM." The picture supplied is an enlarged photograph worth but a few shillings, and every effort is made to enforce a fraudulent and exorbitant claim for a frame. WILLIAM LORD MOORE, 5, INGERSOLL- ROAD, SHEPHERD'S BUSH. ( C. O.— C. I. D. Correspondence, No. 7655S.) This man advertises in America and elsewhere to catch people who are supposed to be entitled to money from next- of- kin or otherwise. His business is fraudulent. NOTICE TO POLICE. A Mr. G. W. SARGENT, a chemist, of 75, Chnrch- street, Kensington, is writing to the police throughout the country about alleged violations of the Pharmacy Acts.
