Inquest Beaun In London,

London, July 19.-Dr Danford
Thomas of London. coroner, began an
inquest over what was left Of the body
of Belle Gilmore, the music hall singer,
which was found last Wednesday in
the cellar of the house which she oc-
cupied with her husband, DR.. Hawley
Harvey Crippen, on Hilldrop Crescent,
North London. ..... ..s...
DR.. Thomas told the jury that the
remains were supposedly those of Mrs
Crippen. There was not, he said,
great deal Of evidence to place before
the jury and 1t would be necessary to
adjourn the inquiry, as an analysis Of
the organs was being made In order to
find out II poison had been admin
istered TO the dead woman.
Mrs. Walter Neave, the mother of
the Leneve girl, who Is supposed to
have fed with DR.. Crippen, and sew
eral officers Of the Ladies' Music Hall
guild were present at the inquest.
The naive appeal Of the detectives
to the Leneve woman, supported by
the pathetic letter of her father,
Walter Neave, to disclose here where
abouts have been without effect. The
woman's real name is Neave, but for
some reason of her own she called her
self Leneye, a name by which she
was possibly known while a student at
French convent.

Why Not Pass the PIateq

They ought to pass the plate at
church weddings. 1t comes natural to
do It in church, and to do so would
add pretty and useful employment to
the duties of the ushers, who always
have a little spare time before the
bride arrives And. really, getting
married is more expensive than ever.
and, though wedding presents are ex-
cellent In their way, what the young
people usually need the most Is cash.
Instead of the list of gifts which the
newspapers sometimes print we should
read, "The collection yielded $4,000
000." That would be nice. 1t is much
easier to store and care for money
than plate and glassl And money al
ways fits and there is no such thing as
an embarrassing duplication Of dollars.

belief of the London police. They feel
convinced that the fugitive and his
companion. Ethel Leneve, boarded the

with a number of other passengers
from London.
Crippen and the woman are supposed
to have left London on the afternoon
of July Q. He was last seen going from

time to catch the liner at Dover

I'm the search for the fugitive will be

and there is little chance that DR..
Crippen and Miss Leneve, If they are
aboard, will be able to slip ashore un-
observed, even though DR.. Crippen is
disguised as a woman, as is now sup

Moody looked for DR.. Crippen and the
Leneve girl on two vessels, the Allan

searched both vessels thoroughly.
Nine. Ginnett, who was Belle Ell
more's friend; Mrs. r. H. Mills. Belle
Elmore's half sister, and Mrs. b. Hyde,
a London friend of Mrs. Ginnetts,
were on the piers when the boats
docked and also scrutinized the pas
sengers.
Moody and Leeson had instructions
to look for Crippen among the women
passengers. Scotland Yard had an idea
that he might be disguised as a woman.
