scandal. and, II his wife was not To-
Gated. there would be trouble. The emily
way of escape was for both to start
q new home together, abroad. Crippcn
was under cross-examination for prac-
tically four hours.
When the defendant was excused
from the box. DIR. Turnbull, director OF
don hospital, was called for the de-
Tense. He bluntly declared the So
called scar on the body of the victim
could not possibly be scar.
DR.. Hawiey Harvey Crippen faced
his accusers from the witness box yes
terday for the first time.
1t was dramatic moment when tho
diminutive figure of the American
emerged from the comparative isolation
OF the dock and took a position where
he was stared at with interest by the
throng that filled the new Bailey court
room.
Crippen was pale, bat his com,,oeure
that has remained since he was ilrst
charged with the murder of his actress
He stepped quietly. but quickly. into
the box. and, holding the bible in his
hand, took the oath calmly.
Under the tactful guidance OF his
counsel Crippen gave a sketch Of his
career. He had studied the theories,
nad not taken practical course In
surgery. He had performed post
mortem. The drugs which he had pur-
chased In England, he explained, were
wholly for his own preparations. He
explained the purchase of hyoscin, the
poison which the crown alleges was
used to kill Belle Elmore, by saying II
was required for use In the treatment
OF nervous cases, and described his
formula in making up hyoscin tab
loids. or the hyoscin which he pur-
chased on January 10, the doctor said
he had used about two-thirds.
The prisoner admitted there was a
scar on the body OF his wife, four and
a half inches in length. 1t was caused.
he said. by an operation IL years ago.
He had never administered hyoscin to
his wife. He had no idea whose was
the body unearthed in the cellar Of his
Hilldrop Crescent home.
In fact. he was not aware that q
body had been buried there until he
returned to England under arrest.
Crippen told OF the gradual aliena-
ton of his wife's affections until the
climax was reached in a quarrel on
the night of January 81 last. His wife,
he said. had accused him of lack Of
attention to Mr.. and Mrs. Martinetti,
who had spent the evening with them.
They quarreled and on the following
day his wife went away. He bore out
his counsels statement OF an alleged
plot which he had formed to escape
from the steamer Montrose.

Baltimore, Md. oct. 24.--Along lines
conceived by himself and worked out
Unaer the guidance OF the Hopkins men
who are at the head OF the Rockefeller
Institute for Medical Research, DIR.
Alexius Carrel has made one OF the

NEED MONEY FOR GOOD WORK
Plans of the National Association for
the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis.

What "A Million for Tuberculosis
from Red Cross Seals" will do In pro-
viding some Of the 275,000 beds need
ed ut once in the United States for
consumptives, is explained in recent
bulletin of the National Association
for the Study and Prevention Of Tu-
berculosis. There is just about one
bed for every ten INDECENT consump-
tives, and If all tuberculosis persons
In the country arc counted, both rich
and poor, hardly one for every 25 or
30. If sufficient hospital accommoda-
tions are provided only Tor those
who are too poor to pay the full
price for their treatment fully 275,000
more beds In special institutions for
tuberculosis will be needed at once.
The immense outlay necessary to pro-
vide and maintain SO many beds in
hospitals, makes it imperative, the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis de-
clares, that such institutions be erect
ed from public money, either mum.
cipal, county or state. In order to
get appropriations for public hospitals
Tor tuberculosis, agitation is neces-
sary. and in order to create a cam
paign Of agitation. organization is de
handed. But in order that an organi-
cation may carry on an effective cam
pagn, funds are needed.
These funds 1t is proposed to secure
In as MANY communities as rOssible
