POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
Senior-Constable Vaughan, of the New South Wales police, stationed at Deniliquin, who was specially sent down in connexion with the arrest of Michael Gleeson, will proceed to Deniliquin with his prisoner on Saturday next. It will be remembered that Gleeson robbed a man of two £10 notes, and through the skill and combined action of the police force of the two colonies, the criminal was arrested.
Mrs. Ann Jones, the licensee of the Glenrowan Hotel, which was destroyed by fire at the capture of the Kelly gang, was charged at the City Police Court yesterday with feloniously harbouring and maintaining the now deceased outlaw Edward Kelly. Mr. J. Dwyer appeared for the defence, and pro-tested against the action of the police in arresting Mrs. Jones, and her treatment in the watchhouse. He alleged that she had been put into a cell with drunken women, whereas, as a matter of fact, the only other occupant of the cell was a girl who was arrested to secure her attendance as a witness in another case. Mr. Dwyer also wished to call attention to a paragraph in The Argus of that morning, which he considered prejudiced his client before the case was heard, but Mr. Call, P.M., the presiding magistrate, pointed out that the Bench had no official cognisance of such matters. On the application of Detective Eason, the prisoner was remanded for seven days, on the understanding that at the expiration of that period she will be remanded to appear at Wangaratta.
