Extract from Victoria Police Gazette.

From Gazette , 1882, pages 115, 129, and 130.) Julius Scherff, alias H. F. Mueller, and believed to be identical with H. F. Hansen, is charged on warrant with obtaining £2O by false representations from Karl Van Damme, tobacconist, Sandhurst, on the 3rd instant. Description: German, speaks English fluently, forty to forty-five years of age, 5 feet 10 inches high, slight build, sunburnt, but fair complexion, sandy whiskers, beard and moustache turning grey, whiskers neatly cut; wore brown sac-coat, wide light trousers, and drab felt hat; carries a riding-whip, and is of gentlemanly appearance and address. He is supposed to have come from Queensland recently, and to have committed similar frauds there.—O. 2430. —l7th April, 1882.—Julius Scherff, for obtaining money by false pretences from Karl Van Damme and others, is likely to make for New Zealand, and, should he do so, will in all probability resort to the same mode there of obtaining money. —O. 2430.—30th April, 1882.

£IOO Reward. —A warrant has been issued against Peter Emil Wceke, for stealing, on or about the 20th February, 1882, a bill of exchange for £420, the property of Messrs. C. C. Brochner and Co., of High Street, Hull, corn merchants, with whom he was cashier until he absconded on the 4th March. The following is a descciption of Weeke: About forty-five years of age, but looks older, about 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, he stoops and is rather bow-legged, features pointed, very near and weaksighted, has generally worn spectacles, hair very thin, whiskers and beard longer than in portrait filed at the Detective Office, which was taken twelve years ago, moustache, all turning grey; has a wen on the corner of one eye —thought to be the right one, also scars behind the ears and whiskers, owing to recent application of blisters. The above reward will be given to any person who may give such information as will lead to Weeke’s apprehension, and a further sum will be paid if such apprehension shall lead to the recovery of funds or property, of which he has abstracted a large quantity. — Rollitt and Sons, Solicitors, Hull, and 12, Mark Lane, London, E.C. —O. 2789. —2rd May, 1882.
