(Received June 6, 5.5 p.m.) A man named Bogot, dirty and ragged, was arrested on the roadside gleefully counting bank notes valued at over 100,000 francs. Bogot protested that he was a marine pensioner and had won most of the money during three days at Epsom, chiefly on the Derby. The police investigated and found this to be true and released him.
