However, isn't RU.ATOM deprecated?

These are totally different facts. The contents of every single slot
differ between the two! The symbol NIL is not the same as the String
"", the integer 48 is not the same as the String "48", the symbol
Marlow is not the same as the String "Marlow", etc. For the first
slot, note that Jess's equivalent of Java's "null" is the lower-case
symbol nil.
This code should produce the same fact as your "assert" call:
Fact f = new Fact("conventionalAddress", engine);
f.setSlotValue("number_prefix", new Value("NIL", RU.ATOM );
f.setSlotValue("street_number", new Value(48, RU.INTEGER) );
f.setSlotValue("street_name", new Value("Marlow", RU.ATOM) );
f.setSlotValue("street_type", new Value("Street", RU.ATOM) );
f.setSlotValue("suburb_name", new Value("Wembley", RU.ATOM) );
f.setSlotValue("city_name", new Value("Perth", RU.ATOM) );
f.setSlotValue("state_name", new Value("WA", RU.ATOM) );
f.setSlotValue("post_code", new Value(6014, RU.INTEGER) );
engine.assertFact(f);
