borne has at last turned up and has
unfolded his story to General Barnes, In
an interview with the latter to-day, hs
confirms the report, and alleges that Itch
borne come 10 him for certain information
as to how he could best obtain documen.
tary evidence to show that he had never
been in Rio Janeiro; had never left
there In the vessel Bella, and had never
been wrecked and picked up by the Spray,
as stated by Arthur 0rten, the Tichborns
claimant.
Barnes subjected his visitor to rigid ex.
animation Of several days, duration, In
which he told 80 straight story, including
80 many points in which 0rten failed, and
others which did not come out In the trial,
and exhibited physically such identity
with the lost heir that the General says he
has reluctantly arrived at the conclusion
that either the true TiCkborne has turned
up or the man in question 10 the most
adroit swindler he has ever met In q long
course 0f practice.

termination on his part to remain iRcogni |

about by feeling oI chsgrin Rt the oppo.
Gition 10 his marriage with his cousin Kate.
The question OF being able to establish |
