NEW YORK, July 2S.-Plunging TO-
night through the Labrador fogs, the
dispassionate engines OF the steamer
Montrose are bringing momentarlly
nearer to Identification two passen-
gers on board, supposed to be DR..
Hawley Harvey Crippen and his fugi-
tive companion, who are wanted by
the London police in connection with
the disappearance OF Crippen's wife.
Their fellow passengers know
nothing of the suspicion that attaches
to the couple. The two suspects are
not under arrest. They also are lg-
norant of the wireless messages OF
inquiry and conjecture that are fash
ing over their heads from police head
quarters thousands OF miles remote.
Most important Message.
The most important of these mes
sages was the communication to the
Associated Press direct from the wire
less operator on the Montrose, pre-
sumably sent with authority of the
captain. in which il was fatty stated
that two suspects agreeing with the
police description of DR.. Crippen and
Ethel Leneve were on board. Other
messages fished out of the air were
addressed to Quebec, Montreal ana
Ottawa. The authenticity OF some OF
them was denied. but all were in the
, same tenor-indicating a growing con
yiction that the world wide hunt for
DIR. Crippen is at last nearing lis end
First Landing Tomorrow.
The Montrose is slow ship. AT
her hest speed should do about 10
knots an hour. Baffled by the fogs'
she will be held back for an lnde-
terminate time. Granted that when
her message to the Associated Press
was sent. she was $50 miles east OF
Belle Isle. on the coast Of Labrador.

Point. fully Sc hours of steamIng- II
seems possible. therefore. that she
will not reach her first stopping point
before Saturday morning
In the meantime the Laurentic. bear
