Quebec. Que, Aug. 1-Probably not before August IS will Dr. Hawley Harvey Crippen and Ethel Clare Le- 1leve be taken aboard a transatlantic liner bound for England, there to stand trial. jointly accused of murder ing a woman believed to have been Belle Elmore the doctors American wife The criminal law of the British possessions established this today when the haggard dentist whose flight ended dramatically aboard the steamship Montrose yesterday morn ing was arraigned before a magis- Jrate and remanded until August s.
 Will Not Fight Extradition.
 Neither he nor the girl will resist extradition- Although too i'll to ap- pear in court the questions prescribed by law were put to Miss Leneve she sat weakly in chair at the home of Chief Mccarthy of the provincial police AS Crippen had said at his arraignment earlier in the day she too evinced willingness to go back to England for trial She answered the questions in almost inaudible voice and seemed on the verge of collapse. As was her male companion, she was remanded until August B.
 Until late in the day the judge and the police believed that the girls ex- animation would have to be postponed but finally they decided to question her at Chief MeCarthy's house so that both prisoners might be ready to re- turn to England the same boat at the earliest date permitted by law. He IS as man exhausted and he has sunk into the quicksand of the law without struggle Of the girls at 1itude less is known She is still broken in body and spirit, alternately shaken with sobs silently morose. Her relatives in London are besieging her by cable to tell all and the Que bee police are treating her with a gentleness rarely shown prisoner, even through woman
 Taken Before Provincial Court
 Forced through curious crowd like a battered human wedge, Crippen was taken before the provincial court of special sessions today where he was formally questioned as te his identity end notifes7 that he under. arrest for the murder of an unknown woman. eemanding him to August was pure al perfunctory, for he and his com rznion under the fugitive offender act, | trust remain here at least fifteen days F7. on the eighth he will be remanded again untn the fifteenth. and the first 1 available vessel for England will not Separt until three days later. Another Scotland Yard Officer Com
 ing.
 By that time another detective from Scotland Yard will have Arrived, triuging sa formal application for ex- tradition. though this application will not probably be necessary if the ac- cused mans declaration that he will raise no obstacles to check his return Is true.
 Sergeant Mitchell, who brings the application from London, will aid 1n- spector Dew in taking the prisoners back for trial
 Liberal Treatment of Miss Leneve.
 Although Crfppen was the center | of attention when arraigned, perhaps the most interesting development of | the day was the extremely liberal 1 treatment Of Miss Leneve by the police. l like Crippen- she is accused of rnur- l Gar the girl today toying the freedom of the house of i Chief of Police Mccarthy. When taken | from jail today it was announced that | because of her weak condition she | had been transferred to hospital, | but this proved to be incorrect. She | Is back in jail tonight under the care 1 of a physician but visitors to the | chiefs house say they had a glimpse 1 of her walking about in the yard for ] Q breath of air under careful but un- pbtrusive surveillance
 Many believe the police are so markedly lenient with Miss Leneve not rnly because they pity her but also because they doubt she was equally guilty with CripDen and hope she may turn against him on the witness Ftand- This is the course her rela- tives in London are urging her to take. Rs several cablegrams received today made apparent
 Crippen Model Prisoner.
 Crippen occupies a cell in the pro- rinciaI jail the heights east of the rity. overlooking the St Lawrence river He is not handcuffed and for several hours today he was permitted to exercise in the corridor The only other prisoners in the corridor were two French Canadians. serving short sentences for a street brawl. His jailer said the dentist did not talk to them. l
 Thus far he has been a model pris- ! oner- making no requests and giving l the keepers no worry There are sev eral ways in which the prisoner might 1 ma ke himself troublesome to the au- fhorities- He might ask to have the American cons-=I notified or seek an treatment The United States consul here is Gebhardt Willrch. a former resident of Milwaukee and St Paul. -Iinn MT. Willrich said today that all consistent assistance he had no application and he expected none
 In fact he added. he saw no way ln which he could better the situation of the prisoner in any way

 Police.
