We are informed that Mr Oolclougli has sold the " Fenian" to Mr Taggart, of Mt. Pisa Hotel. Mr Taggart intends, we believe, to race him at the forthcoming meeting. A cablegram says a person has arrived in England claiming to be Arthur Orton. In connection with this Tichborne subject, we notice the following paragraph in a contemporary : *' In the trial of the Tichborne Claimant on August 29th, a large number of witnesses from Wapping testified that the Claimant was not Arthur Orton. Much excitement was created in Court by the testimony of two witnesses, who swore that they had seen Orton and Castro together in Australia, and they identified the Claimant as the person who went under tho name of Castro."
