PARIS, 26th February. A twenty-franc note, with a corner torn off, was responsible for tlie arrest of Louis Bourgido on a charge of murdering Madelaine Revilain, who was found strangled in her bedroom in Rouen. The woman had presented the note at a cafe earlier in the day and the note had been refused because it was torn. The suspicion of the cafekeeper was aroused. Bourgido, when questioned, confessed to the murder.
