SPECIAL NOTICE. ATTENTION has been called to instances in which men at one time in the Metropolitan Police Force have set up Private Detective Agencies, and have asked for information from other Forces, upon the ground that they are Ex Metropolitan Police Officers. The Commissioner thinks it necessary to intimate for the informa- tion of other Police Forces, that he has no know- ledge of these persons, and that application for assistance made by them should be dealt with accordingly. APPREHENSIONS SOUGHT SPECIAL NOTICE. 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 lo6t and persons missing.
