NEWS OF THE DAY. (1887, June 20). ^[1]
The Orient Company's RMS Chimborazo, with London dates to the 20th of last month, arrived in Albany at 9 p.m. on Friday. This is an unusual departure in the ports called at by the Orient line, and it may therefore be surmised that she has put in for a supply of fuel.
