.William O'Brien, the man alleged to be concerned
with Duncan tied his wife in conspiring to defraud the
London and North-Western Railway Company of 1201_
by pretending that they had ieeeived serious injuries
Owing to a collision near Leighton Buzzard, was brought
up on that charge.
Duncan and his wife have 'before been under exami-
nation, the details of which have already appeared.
O'Brien, who is a party also implicated in the charge,
has kept out of the way since the warrants were applied
for and issued, until the preceding day, when he was
taken into custody at a, lodging-house in Alien-street,
Berwick-street, Soho.
The policeman, in describing the particulars of
O'Brien's arrest, said that when be was informed of the
nature of the warrant issued against him, he said that
Duncan was a traitor, or words to that eft.ct.

Mr. COTTINGLIABI said that if the prisoner wished to
state t:nything on the subject, of the charge he wcAthi
hear bun, but that he was not called upon to do ; and
as the other prisoners were remanded, and would be
