THE DEUCE CASE.
AN ARTIST'S DISCOVERY,
MELBOURNE, December 24
Mr Dancy, a Melbourne artist, has made an interesting discovery in connection with the Druco case. Portraits recently published in Melbourne of the late fifth Duke of Portland and of T. C. Druce show many points of similarity. Mr Dancy observed an important feature, in ' that the forefinger of the right hand in each picture appears to be delwmed. There is no bend in the mipdlo joint, consequently the finger appears to. be unduly long. It seems to the artist that the two pictures are of the same person. Information of this discovery has been sent to London. PRECAUTIONS AT GRAVE. LONDON, December 24.. A shed is being erected in front of the grave of T. O. Druce at Highgate cemetery. The locality is lighted by electricity as a precaution, against tampering with the grave.
