Later: It is rumoured that Swauston, as the prisoner calls himself here, has admitted to the police that his name is not Swauston, and that he is the same luau who, under the name of Williams, lived at Windsor. The police authorities refuse to say whether the report of his . coufes.sion is correct or not. Every day _  fresh light is thrown upon the details 'of the prisoner s past life in Australia, and it seems that he has coustantly been guilty of swindling of one sort or another. In most cases he has imposed upon people by his talk of wealth, and by a certain bonhomie. In 1887 he was on his way to South and was staying at Adelaide waiting for a steamer. While there he made the acquaintance of two brothers, with whom he became on very friendly terms, and before he departed he succeeded in robbing them of £6O. The Sydney police are making excavations at the house occupied by Deeming during his stay in this city. The fact telegraphed out to Capetown, from London, that Deeming, the supposed Rainhill murderer, visited the Cape a few years ago has deepened the sensation caused by the climes laid to his charge. Enquiries which have been instituted show that his name is well known at Johannesburg in connection with some extensive jewellery swindling in 188'J.
