LIST OF CASES FOR TRIAL
Fourteen persons were on the list for trial at the criminal sessions, of the Supreme Court, which opened in Wellington yesterday before His Honour Mr Justice Chapman. Several of the accused persons had more than one charge to answer. Mr VR Meredith, of the Crown Law Office, represented the Crown.
GRAND JURY.
For the Grand Jury the following were chosen Edwin George Fortescue Zohrab (foreman), Samuel Campbell, John Aston, William Palmer, Charles Maurice Baker, George Whittle Astley, William Weekes Barber, Ernest William Philip Bucholz, Walter John Blundell, Frederick Yeates, Joseph William Carr, George Brown, James Thomas Hunter, Walter Fair Larkin, Jay Porter, Charles C Larmour, Herbert Spencer Lean, James Smith McArthur, and Charles Edward Clifford.
HIS HONOUR'S ADDRESS.
In his address to the Grand Jury, His Honour said there did not appear to be anything special in the list of cases. It was satisfactory to find that there was no increase of crime, but that on the whole the amount of criminality in so large a community was not such as could disturb the feelings of anyone. Unfortunately there were several cases of a sexual nature. Of these, only one was against a young girl, but the others were of a very objectionable character. His Honour then proceeded to refer in detail to the various cases.
GRAND JURY'S FINDINGS.
True bills were returned in the following instances Frederick George Smith, alias John Burberry, alleged theft from the Hotel Arcadia; Henry Francis McIlroy, alleged theft from the person; Margaret Dohson, alleged assault causing actual bodily harm; Frederick George Thurston, alleged assault causing actual bodily harm; Patrick Mayo, alleged burglary; Joseph Kenny, alleged obscene language; Robert Stockbridge and William Stockbridge, alleged breaking and entering and theft; Robert Stockbridge, alleged theft; Fredk W Browne, alleged false pretences; William Garner and Thomas Jackson Smith, alleged attempted theft from a dwelling; Andrew Julius Finlay, alleged indecent assault on a male, and attempted unnatural offence; Fortunatus Evelyn Wright, alleged indecent assault on a male; and John William Scatcliard, alleged indecent assault.
No bill was returned in the case in which Frederick George Smith, alias George John Burberry, was charged with stealing a cheque from a shop in Courtenay Place.
VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY.
The first trial proceeded with was that in'which Fredk. George Smith, alias George John Burberry, was charged with:—(l) Stealing, on September 9 last, a silver watch, valued at 8s. 6d., the property of Frank Plumpton, and a muff and work-basket, valued at £3-10s., the property of Edith Plumpton, from the Hotel Arcadia; (2) stealing a silver thimble, valued at 10s. 6d., the property of Alicia Hughes, on the same day from the same hotel. Mr DS Smith (assigned by the Crown) appeared for the accused, who pleaded not guilty.
The evidence for the prosecution was to the effect that Smith was found in a room in the Hotel Arcadia, while some of the missing articles were in his possession, and some of them on the bed in the room.
For the defence, it was contended that the prisoner was drunk when he took the articles. He came to Wellington to join the Expeditionary Force, but fell into bad company, which led to drink.
After considering the case for a brief period, the jury returned a verdict that the prisoner was not guilty of any criminal intent.
His Honour interpreted this as a verdict of not guilty, and directed that the prisoner should bo discharged.
A MAN WITH A RECORD.
A street hawker, named Henry Francis McIlroy, was charged with stealing £4 from the person of John Edwards. He pleaded not guilty, and was defended by Mr HF O’Leary.
The evidence called for the prosecution established, the fact that McIlroy had taken the notes from the pocket of Edwards while the two were discussing a deal in horseflesh near the Hotel Cecil.
After a retirement of half an hour the jury returned with a verdict, of guilty, and the prisoner, who had previous convictions both in the Dominion and in Australia, was sentenced to twelve months’ imprisonment with hard labour.
The Court then adjourned until 10 o’clock this morning.
