Extraordinary Swindling Case at Rhyl. Magisterial Proceedings This Morning. The Experiences of Rhyl Ladies. Commending the Police. [BY OUR OWN REPORTER.] THIS (Thursday) mom in a, at the Rhyl Police Court, before Mr S. Perks (presiding) and Mr. J. Fowlfces, Charles Lewis, alias Charles Williams, hit: of 4, William-street, Rhyl, was brought up in custody on remand charged with having obtained by false pretences from Mrs Lucas. Churton Villa School, Rhyl, the sum of 3s, with intent to cheat and de- fraud her of the same. The Court was filled with a large number of fashionably-attired ladies who apparently enjoyed the, to them, novel proceedings. From the evidence they appear to have fallen eisy victims to the ingenious and suave-mannered individual. Prisoner, who seemed to feel his position keenly, had a stubby gro.vth on his chin, the result of a week's incarceration in Ruthin gaol. During the evidence he his head clown and scarcely took any interest in the proceedings. The evidence of P8. MacWalters, which was given at the first hearing on Thursday last, was read over. It related to his apprehension of the prisoner at Llanduduo under a warrant, and that whilst on the journey back to Jhyl, Williams con- fessed to the fraud, and said that what he had told them there was not correct; that his brother was in America, and that he had not seen him for some months. Lwt of Victims.; "This morning," continued the witness, "I read out to the prisoner the following names of I persons from whom he had obtained money since 'May the lIth :MTS Adams, Conway street, is 6d; Miss E. Ley, Elwy Hall School, s; Miss Rees, St. Oswald's School, 6s; Miss Lonsdale, 33; Rev T. Lloyd, Vicarage, 33; Dr Hutton, 4s 6d; 'Mr Beattie, Epworth College, 3s; Mrs Henry Foulkes, 'Brighton-road, 4s 6d Mr Richard Bromley, 3s; Rev E. M. Richards, IS 6S Rev Peter Jones, is 6d; Mr R. Brodie Griffiths, 3s Rev G. jenkins, is 6d; Mr Arthur Greenstreet, Brighton-road, 4s 6d; Dr Goodwin, 3s; Mrs Lucas, Churton Villa, 3s; Mrs J. A. Crockford, Russell House, 3s; Mrs W. R. Wil- liams, 33. Prisoner said nothing 'in reply. 'Mrs Lucas, Churton Villa, said she kept, a girls' school at the above address. On Saturday, the 24th of June, prisoner called upon her and asked her to purchase some tickets for a Shakesperian recital, which would be given in the Church House, through the kind permission of the Vicar of Rhyl. To influence 'her to buy, 'the prisoner produced a book containing the names of several ladies who kept private schools in Rhyl, who, he said, had taken tickets. He also showed witness two visiting cards belong- ing to Mr R. M. Hugh Jones, J.P., Cole't House School, and Miss Mercier, each of whom bore written testimony on the back to the excellent character of a similar entertainment given two years ago at the Victoria Hall. This entertain- ment, prisoner said, was given by his brother, of New York, for whom he was canvassing. The price of tickets for the principals he said was is 6d. Witness purchased two at the price named, and she agreed to take six tickets for the pupils at a reduced' price of is. These were ¡ to come on in course of post, and were not to be paid for until the night of the recital, when only so many as were used would be charged for. Prices of the Shakesperian Recital. Witness gave prisoner 35 for the two tickets, which she purchased for herself and the governess. There was no date and time on the ticket,, which bore the following inscription: "Card of admission, "0. 27, Mr George B. and Miss Minnie M. Willams, New York, Shakes- perian Recital." Among the names in the book produced by prisoner were those of Miss Lons- dale, Miss Ley, Elwy Hall; Miss Rees, St. Os- wald's Miss Beattie, Epworth College; Mrs W. P. Williams, Mr Greenstreet, Mrs Storey, Mr H. A. Tilby, Mr Brodie Griffiths, several of the curates, etc. Prisoner led 'her to, think that the people whose names were in the book had pur- chased tickets. One fact which somewhat as- tonished witness was prisoner's statement that he had been sent to her by Miss Rees, of St. Os- wald's, because she had no personal acquaint- ance with that lady. With that exception wit- ness had no reason to doubt anything the pris- oner said. He said the performance would take place in the Church House on the loth of June. Nearly a fortnight passed and witness wondered why the children's tickets had not come to hand. Oir Monday, the day before the recital was to come off, witness made several enquiries as to what time the recital would be held, and she was astonished to hear that the vicar and the verger knew nothing of the Church House being engaged. The same day P.S. McWalters called upon him, and she informed him of the transac- tion which had taken place between the pris- oner and herself. In answer to the clerk, witness said she could not say of her own knowledge that the recital was not held, but she understood that the Church House was closed on the night in ques- tion. Prisoner Pleads Guilty. Mr Oliver George then read out the charge to the prisoner, and asked him if he had anything to say. He said, "I am guilty, and prefer to be tried here." The police produced a letter from the Rector of Pendleton, who said that the prisoner had carried out the same practices in other places, viz., Macclesfield, Lincoln, and Manchester. Dr Huston, illwy-street, said prisoner called about the 10th of May, and told him he was selling tickets for a Shakesperian recital to be held in the Victoria Hall on the 24th of May. Witness bought tickets, and paid him 4s 6d. Miss Rees, St. 'Oswald's School, said the pris- oner was clean shaven when he called upon her. (Laughter.) He persuaded her to purchase tick- ets for the recital. He could not exactly fix the date, but said a lot of people, including Mr Mus- pratt and Mr Hugh Jones, had purchased tickets. Miss Ley, principal of Elwy Hall School, said on the 15th of May prisoner visited the school, and upon seeing a vote of introduction from Mr Hugh Jones, Colet House, she purchased several tickets. Dr. Goodwin, Rhyl, also related his experiences with the prisoner, and told how he was induced to part with 3s. Miss Trousdale, Blaencartha School, related a similar tale, and said she gave him 3s. Prisoner said that Mr Hugh Jones had taken fifteen tickets for his scholars.

The Bench's Decision. This was all the evidence offered, and the Chair- man addressed the prisoner in the following; terms:—" Williams, you appears io have obtained the good will and offices of a ureal number of ladies andgentkmcn in the town, who seem to have had confidence in you from the fact that confidence had been misplaced in you by others, and irf that way thev were led to believe it a genuine case. it is necessary for the protection of the public that men like you who are going about the country committing these serious offences—and there is sufficient evidence before us to show that you have been guilty of these offences elsewhere-should be severely punished, and if we had evidence that you had be<-n previously convicted we should have given you the maximum penalty. As it is, you will be committed to prison for two months with hard labour. Thanks to Ladies and Police. "I should like," continued the president, "to thank all those ladies and gentlemen who have come forward to give evidence in this case. It is not a pleasant thing to do, and I think they deserve thanks for the ready way they have done so. I must also bear testimony to the remarkable ingenuity and cleverness displayed by P.S. Mac- Walters in tracing this man. It is not the first time this officer has displayed his detective qualities, and as this is a serious case, his con- duct is such as to deserve public commenda- tion." On hearing the sentence, prisoner exhibited signs of great emotion, and was led out of court sobbing bitterly.
