day adjourned until Thursday To-

presiding Judge. was hearing the case
for the first time.

presented the crowns case at great
length.
Solicitor Arthur Newton and j. II,
Welfare appeared for Crippen and
Leneve, respectively,
Although there is a charge of muir
der against the girl, the prosecution
has indicated that II will cry her only
on the charge of being an accessory
after the commission of the alleged
crime.
Crfppen was brought To court from
Brixton Jail, in the hospital ward of
which he was confined for several
days last week. Miss Leneve came
from Holloway jail.
Drops Murder Charge.
Early in Humphreys presentation
of the case he announced that the
charge OF murder against Miss Lee
neve had been dropped and that she
would answer only to the charge OF
being an accessory.
Crtppen paid close attention TO
Humphreys statement. but did not
seem perturbed by IT, In case the
identity of the body is determined. Ii
is understood Crippen will attempt TO
prove that his wife frequently bought
hyoscin, which he used In his dental
work. The druggist of whom she
bought, it Is said, will testify To this
effect.
