DR.. Hawley Harvey Crlppen and
his consort were arrested at y
o'clock Sunday morning on the steam
ship Montrose, two miles of Father
Point. The arrest was dramatic in
sense. Scotland Yard Inspector Dew
boarded the Montrose disguised as
pilot and as Crippen was pacing the
deck with Surgeon Stewart OF the
Montrose he saw the pilot boat ap-
preaching pulled by four seamen. He
remarked that there seemed to be
good many pilots in the boat but aside
from this made no comment. He con-
tinued his promenade but five minutes
after he felt tap on his shoulder and
turned to face Inspector Dew in uni
form.
Il want to see you for moment" ="
said Dew.
DR.. Crippen took the situation quiet
". He turned and walked without
protest to a cabin pointed out to him.
In the cabin was Provincial Detectives
Mccarthy and Denis.
This is your man" said Dew to
Mccarthy, and the latter read the war
rant for Crippen's arrest, at the same
time giving him the usual statutory
caution. DR.. Crippen, guarded by the
police, then went to his own cabin
where the Leneve woman sat dressed
as a boy. She screamed when she saw
Dew and then became reticent. Sub
sequently both prisoners were closeted
with Dew.
Aboard the steamer Montrose five
or six miles down the river, a nervous
careworn passenger paced the deck
alone. Half rang the bells from
the bridge
What are we doing now" inquired
the passenger of DR.. Stewart, the
ships surgeon.
This is Father Point, Mr.. Robin
son. and we are slowing up to take
the pilot aboard" replied the medical
man. "You can see the boat coming
out to meet us there"
The men in the small boat were
now alongside and rested on theil
oars. A rope was thrown to the Graf
and it was warped alongside the larg
er vessel.
A second later on Inspector Dew o.
Scotland Yard, dressed in the pilot
uniform, Chief Mccarthy and ex-Chie
Denis likewise attired, with Francois
Gauvreau, the actual pilot. stood OF
the deck of the Montrose. Dew!
hand was extended to the captain bu
his eye passed on. That's my man,
he said quietly but the jubilant thank
full ring in his voice could not be ex
tinguished. 1t was not hard to se'
that he was having a difficult tint
playing his role of pilot and that n
| itched to assert himself as an office
| of the law. Captain Kendall, Nc
Carthy and Dew chatted at the CON
panionway. Denis and Gaudrea
turned foreward to the wheelhouse
DIR. Stewart and Robinson were walk
ing up the deck. Robinson walked s.
close to Dew that the latter coul
have touched MIN. Still not NOV
was made. Dew was sizing up hi
quarry carefully, pitlessly. Robinso
coughed slightly and turned toward
the captain as though to ask a que'
ton. He was perfectly unconsciou
of the true state Of affairs,
Captain" he said almost jovialll
fitting his grey fedora hat to the bac
of his head. But that was all. Hi
face became a blank, his knees shoe
together and his arms went up a
though to protect himself.
II want to see you below a m'
ment." said Dew with bis characte
lstic lisp Then turning to Chief Nj
Carthy, he said, That's the man."
81 arrest you in the name of tn
king" said Mccarthy"
"You are my prisoner. Anythin
you say will be taken down in writin
and may be used against you at yor
trial."
A few seconds later a woman
shrek told those above that the l.
neve woman had been discovered an
arrested. She had recognized Dew

she was emerging from her cabin
