THEFT FROM A GIRL.
A REMARKABLE SEQUEL.
CONSPIRACY ALLEGED. 1 By Teletraph.—Press Assn.— Copyright. Received Dec. 3, 11.5 p.m. London, Dec. 2. Remarkable accusations have arisen out of a recent street hold-up of a girl elerk while she was carrying the takings of the club in which she was employed to the bank. Cecil Carey, a detective, and Septimus Salter, secretary of the club, were charged with conspiring to defeat the administration ol justice. The prosecution alleges that, following the arrest of a man accused of the hold-up, £42 were deposited in the stolen bag by Salter at Carey’s instance, thus aggravating the seriousness of the offence. The bag contained only £5 when it was stolen. Salter and Carey, expecting the robbery, laid in wait for the thief, whom they took to the police station, after which Salter, at Carey’s instance, returned to the club and obtained the extra money. The hearing was adjourned.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
