THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH,
FORGED NOTES CASE.
(Continued from Page 2,)
first defendant came to the print- | Ing shop to visit his cousin, who happened to be the accountant. It appears that he came to visit hin on the claventh and slept there for two nights. On the 14th the complainant was introduced to the Arst defondant by another mem ber of the staff-a reporter of the nowspaper, and the three of them went out to a ton shop together.
"This was the first of a nerloa of meetings at tea shops and on July 22, the first defendant Bald to the complainant "I know a man who has a supply of forged $10 notes of the Hongkong Bank for sale, would you like to buy them?"
n
I don't know exactly what the reply was, but it was not entirely Ja the negative because next day the first defendant came to invite the complainant out again to a ten shop. They went to the Welling- ton Cafe, I think it was, and when they were there the first defen- dant produced two bank notes and said that theso were forged notes.
Genuine Notes.
મ
"The complainant said they looked very good and the first de- fendant replied that they were excellent and the only thing was that they were rather bigger than the genuine and he produced third rote which appeared to be rather smaller. The theory of the notes: prosecution is that these were all
ono genuine and
note had simply been made smaller by paring round the edge. It in in- conceivable that a clever forger should fail to get the external measurements of the note right.
"I don't rely on that because that is immaterial to the case, but I mention it because it might make things clearer. I want to show that this was not a cass of show- ing forged notes but of showing genuine notes And pretending they were forged, which is the re- verse of the usual fraud.
"The first defendant told the complainant that he could take these two notes home in order that he might examine them, but he insisted on getting a deposit of $10 as a surety for their "safe return. That also was an Indica- tion that the notes were genuine, because it was a big deposit to pay if they were forgeries. That $40 was paid back later.
Money for Business. "The complainant did take the notes away and it was arranged that he was to let the first de fendant know on the following day how many notes. he would take:
for and he was also told that $7,00
7,000 he would receive forged notes to the value of $10,000. The complainant went away to his father-in-law and asked for a loan of $7,000 for business purposes.. He did not get the money then and there, but evidently the father-in- law entertained the idea of giving him an advance for business pur- poses.
"On the following day (July 124) the first defendant telephone
The complainant and asked him to come to the Stag Hotel to discuss bustness, He went there and found the first defendant and also aruan named Pang who was in- troduced to him as a broker of forged notes. They discussed the

ar-
"At about 4.30 the complainant went round to his father-in-law to get the $7,000 and arrived at 17, Aberdeen Street at about 6. There he again met the first defendant and the man Pang, the so-called broker. The three of them wont from there to G, Caine Kond. They were shown into a sitting room on the

He produced the these and handed thom over to frat defendant, who extracted three notes ($1,500) and handed the remainder to Gullherme Gul- marace who in turn handed them to the Chinese Interpreter.
