OF Belle Elmore. They stepped of
the steamer Lake Manitoba at
o'clock yesterday morning and drove
to the hotel where quarters had been
reserved for them.
Mitchell is Of average size and
there is about him nothing to sug-
gest the sleuth. The two wardesses
brought to look after Miss LeNeve
were quietly dressed women under
middle age and looked quite capable
of taking care of any prisoner that
might be intrusted to their guard.
Yesterday afternoon the quartet
drove to the provincial Jail, but did
not see the prisoners. Dew handed
Jailor Maurin a letter for Miss Le-
Neve brought from London by Nit
chell, but beyond saying that 1t was
from the girls family In England the
jailor would reveal nothing of Its con-
tents. The new corners had no mes
sage for Crippen.
Sergeant Mitchell today presented
to the attorney general Of the province
papers containing evidence relating
to the crime, with which Crippen and
LIE. eve are charged. This evidence
will be used. however, only should the
prisoners resist return. Today when
Crippen learned that Mitchell and his
assistants had arrived he said to his
jailer. Il am glad they've come. They
cannot take me back any too soon
to suit me-"
