On this old French city on the s.. Law

If the preceding hours.
Crippen and the girl now face NV"
weeks or more Of mOnOtonOUs waiting
There will be no more legal proceed
ngs in the case until August 8, when
they will have another purely formal
appearance in court to give them a

'elief which they may feel entitled
Unless they change their expressed
Intention, however, neither will apply
for writs OF interference in any way
with the methods adopted by the po-
ice to get them back to England.
So far as the province Of Quebec is
concerned. legal proceedings are praC-
tically closed. The official documents
regarding the arrest OF the couple and
their Interrogation by Judges Langli"r
and Anglers, Of the court OF special
sessions, were forwarded last night to

Leneve, who gave up home and friends
for love of DIR. Hawley II. Crippen and
now finds herself sharing with him the
odlum OF a murder charge. is the CEN
trail figure in the police end OF the
tragedy.
Crippen, taciturn and seeming, to
certain extent to have recovered "is
composure, has volunteered not
since his arraignment yesterday
might help the police in solving
mystery surrounding the disappe~r-
ance of his wife, Belle Elmore, the
American actress.
1t is expected that Crippen and Miss
Leneve will be returned to England for
rial at the expiration of the Is days
grace provided by the extradition laws
IF Canada. In the meantime the de-
tectives would like rs gather from the

Crippen. "Crippen is no fool" Inspec-

that the police are resting their hopes
on Miss Leneve. If she does not
possess the key to the mystery they
think she can at least aid them ma
terially In a reconstruction of the cir
cumstances leading up to the disap-
pearance of Belle Elmore. 1t is known
that Mrs. Crippen was jealous OF her
husbands typist and the police have
no doubt that Miss Leneve was aware
Of this jealousy.
No Third Degree Methods.
They will not use any third degree"
methods in interviewing Miss Leneve,
but more subtle influences already are
at work. The girl prisoner is being
treated with the greatest consideration.
She showed the effect of this today.
appearing to be much better IN body
and In mind than on yesterday when
following the collapse after her arrest
she was considered too i'll to appear in
court.
Miss Leneve has never been placed
in cell here. She has been kept in
the room OF one of the women en-

been allowed occasional outdoor exer-
else. The attitude toward her of the
police Is sympathetic. Inspector Dew
has repeatedly said that he believed
the girl was innocent OF any knowledge
of wrong doing. She has been visited
by other women who have treated her
most kindly.
At the same time Miss Leneve is be-
ing bombarded with cablegrams from
members Of her family In London urg-
Ing her to tell all she knows. The
pressure of friendliness Is being ex-
erted on her, while there Is no prosnect
that she will come In contact with DR..
Crippen or even see him for long
time.
The purpose in all this is obvious
when IL Is considered that so far as is
generally known Scotland Yard has
been unable to identify the disInem-
bered body found In the cellar of the
Crippen home in London. The police
case Is believed not TO be complete.
