CRIPPEN AND MISS LENEVE
ARE PLACED UNDER ARREST
Alleged Wife Slayer md His stenog-
rapher Taken Into Custody Upon
Arrival at Quebec

Montreal, Que. A real detective
story, the plot of which has never
yet been conceived by Poe or
a Doyle, but which has been told in
the newspapers day by day, came to
its last chapter with the arrest of DR..
Harvey H. Crippen and Miss Ethel
Leneve by the provincial police and
Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard, on a
charge of having killed Mrs. Crippen,
known on the stage as Belle Elmore,
in London.
1t was simple performance, this ar
rest, and carried out with all the alb
sence of theatricals and a display of
calmness that was remarkable under
the circumstances. In 2 word. twas
all that staid, stolid Scotland Yard
could desire.
Chief Mccarthy of the Quebec pro-
vincial police, assisted by Chief Denis
of the Dominion police, put DR.. Grip
pen under arrest on the deck of the
Montrose at Father Point after he had
been identified by Inspector Dew as
he was waiting for a pilot. Two min
utes after, Ethel Leneve. the stenog-
rapher, with the suspect, whom Grip
pen had long been infatuated with.
was put under arrest in her cabin.
still wearing the clothes of boy.
Inspector Dew stood face to face
with the man he had let slip by him
in London and was certain that the
man disguised as Rev. John Robinson
was his quarry. Feeling that he had
now indicated himself and feeling the
most real happiness In year, In
spector Dew continued on his way to
Quebec with his prisoners. There they
will be arraigned before Judge Panel
Anglers, the purpose being to deport
them to London. 1t is likely that In
spector Dew will board the Royal
George for the return trip with his
prisoners on Thursday.
Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard,
with Chief Mccarthy and ex-Chief
Denis of the Canadian provincial po-
lice, all three disguised as pilots, went
off to the steamship in lifeboat
rowed by four sailors. Crippen was
smiling and promenading the. deck
with Miss Leneve and DR.. Stuart, the
ships doctor. He asked the doctor
why so many pilots should come. to
which Doctor Stuart replied they were
probably returning to their homes,
being out of turn.
The supposed pilots walked along
until they passed where Crippen and
his paramour were with Doctor Stu
art. AS Inspector Dew got a good
look at Crippen and Miss Leneve he
gave the preconcerted signal and the
constables made the arrest and
brought the couple down to their own
stateroom, where they are now con-
fined with Inspector Dew

Insurance.

Chicago - Jurors at the inquest
over the body of Ira Griffith Rawn,
slain president of the Monon rail-
road, returned verdict, finding
that he was killed by bullet fired
from his own revolver, held In his
own hand" and that circumstances
in connection with the death made the
theory of suicide seem probable.
The verdict was reached after a
three hours session and after much
lively debate in the jury room.
That the insurance companies will
confess the payment of policies is said
to be assured, and it is declared that
relatives of the slain railroad presi-
dent will bring court proceedings to
collect the insurance.
The general consensus of opinion
among those present at the close of
the inquest was that the jury had
taken the only course open to it.

EIGHTY ARE DEAD AND
r MANY WOUNDED IN RACE WAR
Texas Negroes Have Desperate Forty.
Eight Hour Battle With Troops
and Sheriff's Posse.

Palestine, Tex.-At least sixty ne
groes- and twenty white men are dead
according to the latest estimates. fol-
lowing a. pitched battle between ne
gro farmers, in which at least 800
blacks took part and three companies
of state militia from Houston and Gal
weston and detachment of state
rangers. The race riot between the
negroes and whites ragged continuous
ly for forty-eight hours.
Throughout the night the negroes
and whites exchanged shots At dawn
the soldiers prepared to rush the ne
gro stronghold
Cautiously soldiers and citizens felt
their way through the woods for al
most mile before shot was fired
Suddenly coming upon a group of in
trenched negroes the soldiers were
fred on and three hit This was a
signal for general assault. On four
sides shots rang out The negroes
fired desperately, knowing that quar-
ter would be denied any caught.
The surrender OF the blacks ended
the battling. 1t is difficult, members
of the posses and officers of the troops
say, to estimate exactly the number
of negroes killed. Early today the
captured negroes were brought to
Palestine and camp formed for them
on the outskirts of the village, where
they are guarded.
The feeling here is very high, anG
for time it was feared that attempts
would be made TO lynch the negroes
but the presence of the soldiers and
sheriff's deputies is believed sufficient
guarantee for. their safety
The problem Of what to do with the
captured negroes who survived the
war of determination is one that is
puZZling the authorities.
