NUNCIO At
MADRID REMAINS
mo Official Announcements of
Ojeda'S Recall Sent to
the Vatican
BREAK MAY BE TEMPORARY Y
Cardinal Merry del Val May
Cause MonSignor Vico to
Leave Spain
BREAK MAY BE TEMPORARY
ASSOCIATED Press)

ROME, July 31.-The papal nuncio at
Madrid, Mgr. Vico, has not been re-
called by the Vatican, which is await
ing the official announcement of the
recall by the Spanish government of
Marquis de Ojeda, ambassador to the
Vatican. The situation with regard to
the rupture with Spain therefore re-
mains practically unchanged.
The Vatican is greatly offended at
the methods adopted by Premier Ca
nalejas in the recall of the Spanish
ambassador, as the announcement was
made through the press, and neither
the papal nuncio at Madrid nor the
Vatican was notified directly. AS a
consequence, the papal secretary OF
state, Cardinal Merry del Val, has not
been able to take any measure of re-
taliation but it is believed that Mgr.
Vico will be instructed to leave Madrid
Immediately after the official an
nouncement of Marquis de Ojeda'
recall is received here.
The opinion is held in some circles,
however, that the Vatican will give
further proof of tolerance by permit
ting the papal nuncio to remain at
Madrid, Notwithstanding the with
drawal of the Spanish ambassador, as
was the case when the French gov
ernment ordered the French ambassa-
dor at the Vatican to return to Paris.
On that occasion the papal nuncio,
Mgr. LorenZelli, remained In Paris un-
til diplomatic relations were complete
ly broken off, and there are some who
still hope that the recall of Marquis
de Oieda is merely temporary, his alb
sence from Rome assuming the nature
of a simple vacation, and that he will
return when an agreement has been
reached

WESTINGHOUSE IS
FACING A FIGHT
Nav Be Forced Out as Head of
the Big Electric Cor
poration
TAKES TOO MANY VACATIONS
Wall Street Rumors Say That a
Financial Battle Is
Brewing

NEW YORK, July 31.--Just on the
eve Of the annual election of officers of
the Westinghouse Electric and Manu-
featuring company, Wall street, re-
ceiVed a shock to get news of fresh
attack on the present management of
the corporation by President George
Westinghouse, who is now at his coun-
try place at LenoX, Mass. Rumor says
that westinghouse will not head the
corporation after the election.
1t is a known fact that Westing-
houses relations with the management
which took charge of the company
affairs after the discharge of the re-
ceivers in 1908 have been anything but
amicable. When friction between him
and the other officers became acute II
was his custom to take a vacation
Since that time he has had two six
months vacations, and at the present
time is on another vacation. He has
had differences with Robert Mather
chairman of the board
The vacation which he is on at pres
ent is scheduled to close tomorrow
Gossip of the financial district does not
name a successor to Westinghouse, but
II is stated with positiveness that the
senior vice president, E. NJ. Herr
would be the choice of the banking in
terests, who dominate the affairs OF
the company.
Herr is a practical man, and has
long been identified with the electrical
and mechanical end of the business.
Robert Mather, who came over to the
company from the Rock Island at the
time of the reorganization and who
has been the representative of the
banking interests which rescued the
company from the receivership, will, il
is stated with authority in .the street
be elected to his present post.

Releases Hold of Companions
Hand While Surf Bathing
and Sinks to Death

vinta Robinson, the 17-year- old son
of T. ]. Robinson of Anaheim road,
was drowned yesterday afternoon at
Anaheim Landing while in surf bath
ing with his brother Will The two
went in, holding hands, when without
warning, Vinta released his brother 8
hand and disappeared beneath the
water To those who saw him sink, it
looked as if he had suddenly stepped
into a depression on the bottom.
L. Winfield, an engraver of this city,
seeing the boy disappear, sprang into
the water with his clothes on, but his
effort to locate the boy was fruitless.
The body had not been recovered late
last evening.
Shortly before the accident the father
had won the line throwing contest of
the Rod and Reel club, of which he was
a member, before 300 enthusiasts pres
ent. In speaking of the drowning last
evening Mr.. Robinson said that the
young man had been subject to heart
faulure and had probably had an at
tack in that way wilhelm the water.

TEXAS MOB HUNTS DOWN
AND KILLS 25 NEGROES
Sheriff Finds There Was No Real
Cause for Staying the
Black Men

PALESTINE, Texas, July 31.-At
least fifteen, and it may be twenty
five, all of them negroes and unarmed,
were hunted down and killed by mob
of from 200 to 300 men in the Slocum
and Denison Springs neighborhood last
night and yesterday according to the
opinion of Sheriff Black today. 4
The sheriff returned early this morn
ing after twenty-four hours in the dis
trict. He told of fierce man hunt in
the woods, of riddled bodies found on
lonely roads and of the terror almost
indescribable among the inhabitants in
the southeastern part of Anderson
county.
II found the greatest excitement pre-
vailing throughout the section of the
county," said the sheriff. Men were
going about killing negroes as fast as
they could find them, and so far as l
have been able to ascertain, without
any real cause. These negroes have
done no wrong that L could discover,
There was just a hot-headed gang
hunting them down and killing them.
"I believe the trouble was due to a
controversy over a promissory note"

ually began to encircle DR.. Crippen
early in July. Sir Melville MacNaugh-
ton, chief of the criminal investiga-
tion department, took the matter per-
sonally in hand and then for the first
time appeared on the scene Inspector
Dew. 1t was Dew who subjected Grip
pen to the ordeal of minute cross-eX-
animation. The doctor finally admitted
that his wife had not gone to Califor-
mia. but asserted that she had run
away as a result of family chickering's.
The suavity of Crippen led the police
to give conditional credit to his state
ment, and they took his word of honor
that he would remain subject to call
until his story could be verified.
This was on July u. The next day
DR.. Crippen and the pretty young typ
ist, Miss Leneve, disappeared, leaving
no trace of their whereabouts. The
house at Hilldrop Crescent was hastily
searched. This time Inspector Dew
and his staff ransacked cellar and gar
ret In the cellar misplaced brick
led to a CHASTITY discovery. Beneath
the floor was found the battered body
of a human being. 1t had been placed
in oufcklime and was burned beyond
recognition. Even the sex was un-
determinable by the doctors at first,
although the body was finally estao-
lished as that of a woman.
SEARCH THROUGHOUT WORLD
Immediately a search of almost
worldwide scope began, at first in
London and England, and then through
France and continental points, and
finally to America. Many false clews
were followed to a fruitless end. DR..
Crippen and his typist appeared to
have vanished completely.
Police descriptions were cabled
throughout the world. One circum-
stance of the flight proved to be most
important, namely, DR.. Crlppen puF-
chased a suit of boys clothing, evil
IDENTIFY to disguise his companion as
boy in their flight.
The first real clew came on the sail
ing of the Canadian-Pacitic steamer
Montrose from Antwerp on July 20. A
couple of strange appearance TOOK
hasty passage on the steamer two
hours before it sailed. They gave the
names of REV. John Robinson and
John Robinson jr., said to be father
and son.
Two days out Captain Kendall of the
Montrose had his suspicious excited.
He became convinced that the younger
Robinson was a woman, and then that
the pair were those for whom London
and the outer world had been search
ing in vain.
Bv wireless he communicated his
suspicious to Scotland Yard. A minute
description Of the pair, sent by wireless
to the ship at sea, confirmed Captain
Kendau's suspicious, Tho two We're
kept under surveillance, but not under
arrest.
Then began the sensational detective
chase which culrninated yesterday.

star steamer Laurentic. She was
faster than the MontrOse and both
were headed for the same destination.

PREMIER GIVES REASON
FOR RECALLING 0JEDA
Policy Finds Favor with Liberals
and Republicans

MADRID, July S1.-Premier Cana
lejas describes the recall of Marquis
de Ojeda, the Spanish ambassador to
the Vatican, as IAN indefinite suspen-
sion of negotiations"
The premier today made statement
bearing on the controversy between the
church and state, since the beginning
of the negotiations.
",The moment 1 assumed power" he
said, IT opened negotiations for a re-
duction of the religious orders. The
Vatican replied, offering less than was
offered to Premier Maura. We were
grievously disappointed, but pursued
the issue in a spirit of great modera-
ton.
Desiring to advance the question
without rupturing the negotiations, we
exercised our right of sovereignty by
issuing DEGREES, compelling the orders
to register under the law and author
izing different sections to display the
emblems of public worship. AS the
Vatican replied only with protests, we
introduced a bill interdicting further
orders until the revision of the con-
cordat had been accomplished.
when the Vatican ordered the sus-
pension of the DEGREES as a condition
Of the continuation of negotiations,
the government, despite its desire to
avoid a rupture, decided to consider
the. negotiations abortive and to pro-
ceed to carry out its program by de-
crees and explanation. The king ap-
proved our course. The situation will
not retard the visit of his majesty to
England next week"
The Liberal newspapers enthusiastic
cally applaud the "virile, independent
act of the government" The Republi-
can newspapers promise their support
and urge the government to perseVere
in it's policy.

claim American citizenship as means
of delaying the course of justice.
Mrs. Leneve today cabled a pathetic
appeal to her daughter, imploring her
to tell the police everything and not to
allow her affection for Crippen to stand
in the way of her duty to herself and
to her family. The cablegram con-
cludes:
BE brave, little girl, and have no
fear. We are confident of your in
nocence."
London, eagerly waiting, got the first
news of the Identification and arrest
Of DIR. Hawley H. Crippen and his
companion, Ethel Leneve, through the
Associated Press dispatches which
were received Here far ahead of scores
of other messages announcing the
event Special editions of the Sunday
papers with the Associated Press dis
patches were issued by the thousands
and We're eagerly bought up. 1t is a
long time since the newsboys had such

CRIPPEN MAY BE GIVEN
TRIAL IN THREE WEEKS
Scotland Yard Undecided About
Deportation or Extradition

LONDON, July 31.-Scotland Yard
officers tonight did not have any exact
information as to whether Crippen
would be deported or eXtradited, but
they anticipated deportation, in which
case. it was said, Crippen would be
placed on trial within three weeks.
So that there might be no delay the
officers today made arrangements for
the prompt dispatch to Quebec of Ser
eeant Mitchell, should that be neces-
sary.
The Crippen case is looked on by the
police here as one of the most dramatic
they have ever handled. Certainly it
is many years since the public mind
was so stirred by a crime.
Ethel Leneye's relatives tonight are
relieved that their long suspense is
ended They have been apprehensiVe

CRIPPENS FATHER FEARS
HE MAY BECOME INSANE
"May Have Caught Him, but Not
Convicted" He Says

When Myron A. Crippen, the father
of the accused doctor, was told of the
capture of his son at his room In the
Veranda House. 245 South Flower
street, this city, last evening he pre-
sented the picture of dispair. For a
time he did not speak, then lifting
his head and staring his interviewer
straight in the eyes he said:
"They may have caught him but they
have not convicted him YETI
Mr.. Crippen is seventy-fVe years OF
age and for the past month he has
been ill, most of the time in bed with
an attack of the grippe combined with
erysipeas, with no one to attend to
his wants except now and then a kind
ly hearted fellow roomer This sick
ness combined with his sons trouble
has about broken him in both spirit
and body and at times he fears in
sanity will be his lot in his old age. He
said:
FEARS INSANITY
with all this trouble and sickness
coming at once, at times 1 think I will
go crazy. Sometimes my mind refuses
to act and becomes utterly blank"
1t seems that Mr.. Crippen's means
are exceedingly low and that he had
expected assistance from his son in his
old age. When his wife died, January

the doctor arranged to send him six
shillings per month from England. For
several months Mr. Crippen received
this amount in a letter from his son,
but this remittance suddenly stopped,
the last being received in May 1909
and since then he has not received a
word from his son.
