The directives require that complaints of spousal assault be investigated immediately and thoroughly by a police officer. If there are reasonable and probable grounds to believe an assault has occurred, the investigating officer should lay criminal charges. Similarly, when charges have been laid, the Crown Attorney will proceed with the case in all but the most exceptional circumstances. One important effect of these provisions is that they remove the responsibility and blame for pressing charges from women, who often fear retaliation.
5. During the investigation, the investigating officer should consider what terms would be appropriate in an order for judicial interim release, to protect the victim, for example, an order to abstain from communication of the victim under section 457(4)(d) of the Code. Where no terms are considered necessary, and an arrest has been made, the investigating officer should take the accused before a justice of the peace for release pursuant to sections 454 and 457 of the Code. Where conditions are considered necessary, or release is to be opposed, a bail report shall be prepared for the Crown Attorney, the accused brought before a justice under section 454 of the Code within twenty-four hours, and remanded for a bail hearing under section 457(1) of the Code. A copy of the interim release terms shall be provided to the victim where there are provisions contained therein for his or her protection. Where the victim has gone to another community, the nearest police detachment shall be informed of the release order and the conditions therein for the protection of the victim.
Once a year, training is offered for new police officers and veterans.

The Department of Justice Canada hosted an FPT Forum on Spousal Abuse in March 1998 to discuss and exchange best practices by police, Crown Prosecutors, corrections officials, victim services and policy experts relating to spousal abuse cases. A second FPT Forum was held in March 2001.
The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR2) Survey collects police-reported incident-based crime statistics from the policing community, including data on the relationship between the accused and the victim. In 2000, 166 police agencies in nine provinces, representing 53% of the national volume of reported crime, were participating in the UCR2.
A terrible disaster has occurred on board the ill-fated Thunderer, at Ismid Bay. Ac- cording to a telegram from Vice-Admiral Hornhy, a 33-ton gun exploded on the 2nd inst., while the crew were practising. The result was terrific. In all, nine men were killed, 33 men wounded, and the turret dis- abled. Amongst the killed were two lieu- tenants. The charges against the Liverpool police- men, of committing, in conjunction with others, a series of robberies, were again under consideration yesterday. Fresh evi- dence was given, and the prisoners were remanded. General Grant received a very cordial re- ception inDublin yesterday,and lunched with the Duke of Marlborough at the Vice Regal Lodge. At an important meeting of the represen- tatives of the South-West Yorkshire miners, yesterday, a recommendation was adopted, to the effect that the workmen who had re- ceived notice should concede no reduction in their wages. Capt. John Langley, of the South Tip- perary Militia, son of Mr John Langley, who is said to be addicted to the habit of evicting his tenants, has been shot at by two men. The Bishop of Manchester, following the example of Mr Chamberlain, M.P., urges very strongly that the Elberfeld system of relieving the poor shall be adopted in this countrj. The great defect of the English Poor Law scheme is that one relieving officer is not able to exercisc thorough supervision over all the poor, while a committee of the inhabitants, appointed on the Elberfeld system, would bo able to do so. Mr Sankey, the Evangelist, who is now on a mission to England, attended a conference at Newcastle-on-Tyne, yesterday. In order to secure the co-operation of rail- way companies in the proposed extension of working hours, the meeting of tho London engineering firms has been postponed. The Manchester visiting justices have taken up the tone of remonstrance adopted in so many other districts with respect to the new Prison Act. They assert that they have I, 110 real authority and cannot even be treated with civility. These complaints are some- what amusing when we recollect that not long ago the justices of various counties in quarter sessions assembled passed resolutions approving of the new Act. The goods guards of the Midland Railway at several important stations have struck work in consequence of the adoption of the trip system in place of the weekly payments. A special telegram from Paris says that while the Republican chieftains expect a victory in the approaching elections, they do not think that the result will to any material extent alter the composition of the Government. Moncasi, who attempted to assassinate the Kin; of Spain, will be executed on a square in tiie suburbs of Madrid, this Saturday, at eight o'clock in the morning. The Council of Ministers decided that the King should allow the sentence to be fulfilled. Tho allow the sentence to be fulfilled. The prisoner was allowed two interviews in prison with Ins wife and brother. The Parisian papers are criticising the dinner of the commercial travellers to M. Gambetta. One journal says that a demon- stration, attended by only 500 persons out of a possible 90,000, is of small consequence. A contemporary then asks sneeringly if 500 bagmen could be found to give a dinner to M. Paul de Cassagnac.
ALLEGEDlNDECENT ASSAULT BY A CARDIFF CABMAN. Albert Dewsey, a licensed cab driver. was clJargeù at the Cardiff police-court, on Friday, with committing an indecent assault on a young woman named Louisa Bailey. Mr iblelloch, who appeared for the defendsnt, said that an apology had ceen tendered and accepted by the com plain- ant, wltO\" did not now desire to press the charge. The complainant herself also stated that the defen- dant was very drunk at the time, and as he had borne a good character she did not wish to pro- ceed further witn the charge. The bench de- clined to allow the charge to be withdrawn. Com- plainant then said she was a domestic servant in the employ of Mr Davies, of Glyntaff Villa.

Mr Reuben Pearse said that he was passing up the road, and saw a cab standing on the opposite side with no one in charge of it. He considered the circumstance a strange one, and soon after passing it he heard a woman scream out. He went back, and the defendant then got out of the cab and drove off. The com- plainant asked him to accompany her, and he ran by the side of the cab until she arrived at Glyntaff Villa. Defendant pleaded, through Mr Blelloch, that he was very sorry for the offence he had com- mitted. He had been drinking heavily during the day, and had no recollection of what did take place. Tho young woman admitted that the assault was a very slight one, and that as soon as she screamed out the defendant got out of the cab. The benoh, under the circumstance treated the oaec as one of a common aseault, and fined the defendant 40s and eu&ta.
