the Southern Pacific Railroad company
and the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, the Jap

President Decides to Speak to
Common People Instead of
Fashionable Folk
MAKES A QUICK DECISION
Summer Colony Left Out of Pro-
gram 1t Attempted to
MOnopoIize
Associated Press1

BAR HARBOR, Maine, July 2t.-
President Taft will speak here tomor-
row at noon, and will have a chance to
see the year-round residents of this
famous watering place, and to be seen
by them. Until Mr.. Tafts intention
was announced today war clouds We're
gathering rapidly between these Maine
citizens and the members of the fash
ionable summer colony whose plans to
entertain the chief magistrate and the
members of his party failed to include
any concession to the village folk, of
whom there are about 5000.
The president was informed of the
situation today by j. p. Bass of Ban
gor, and at once consented to speak
quickly arranged, and placards an
nouncing the event were posted at
every vantage point, and in all but the
ultra-fashionable shop windows.
Prof. H. c. Emory, chairman of the
new tariff commission, could not reach
Bar Harbor this afternoon, and his
scheduled conference with the presi-
dent was postponed until tomorrow.
Social affairs and golf occupied the
presidents day. He had a blackboard
ride out to Jordan pond tonight for a
"shore supper" of lobster and other sea
dainties. 1t was nine-mile drive each
way through a stiff breeze.
The most exciting incident of the
presidents cruise thus far was the
rescue of two Indians whose canoe cap
sized while the Mayfower was at
anchor in Passamaquaddy Bay. They
had padded out to have a better look.
A moment later there was a splash,
an overturned canoe and two hats
floating on the water.
Boats were lowered and the Indians
We're hauled out little the worse for
their Wetting.

CRIPPEN'S COMPANION
LOOKED LIKE SUICIDE

BOURGES, France July 21.-A
young woman who committed suicide
at a hotel here on July 13 is now be-
lieved to have been Ethel Claire LIE
Neve, the companion of DR.. Crippen.
There are striking points of re-
semblance.
The woman was a foreigner and gave
the name of Jeanne Maze. The police
of Paris and London have been notified.
Much mystery surrounds the suicide.
Though posing as a French woman, 1t
was recognized that the guest who ar
rived at the hotel shortly before she
killed herself was not of French birth.
When the lifeless body was discovered
in her room an effort was made to de-
termine her identity or get some trace
Of her friends and acquaintances. The
suicide was young, probably about 25
years old, rather slight in build and Of
prepossessing appearance.
When nothing could be learned Of
her antecedents the matter dropped
from public discussion, only to be re-
vived today when the authorities re-
ceived from Scotland Yard photographs
Of Miss lie NeVe Crippens typist, who
disappeared from London on the day
that the police lost track Of her en-
plOyer.
Those who had seen the body recog-
nized in the likeness a remarkable SIM
ilarity and directed the attention of the
police to the probability that the sui
eide and Miss le Neve were one.
Further inquiry strengthened this
theory, and the local officers tele-
graphed their discovery to the police Of
Paris and Scotland Yard.
Before shooting herself the young
woman had written a note, which read
as follows:
II request that my identity be not
sought. The cause of my suicide IS
known to me alone. 1 ask to be al
lowed to rest quietly in my tomb.
Il am a foreigner. I leave 100 francs
to defray my funeral expenses"
The note concluded:
Life to me, alas! appeared to be un-
smiling"
The young woman had taken the pre-
caution to cut from her garments every
mark that might serve to indicate the
identity Of the wearer

Of a proposed trip to Spain is declared
to have been q subterfuge, and was
successful in throwing the police off
the track for a short time.
Today a warrant was issued for
Henri Tarbot. Persons who saw the
man during the stop in this city sun
day say he is Identical with DR.. Grip
pen. photographs of whom were shown
them by the police.
The suspect left here Monday morn
ing, purchasing a ticket for Mont Louis.
Before leaving he telegraphed to Mont
Louis, engaging carriage to meet MIN
there and convey him to Puigcerda,
Snain. ten miles distant. The detect
ives learned of this and notified the
police on the other side of the Spanish
boundary to be on the lookout for the
man and to apprehend him If he turned
up.
The traveller, however, did not reach
Mont Louis, and later 1T developed that
he left the train at station between
that place and Vernet-les- Bains. When
the authorities learned that the man
in all probability was still in France
they swore out warrant for his ar
rest, and the police along. the line OF
the railroad over which he Travelled
were instructed to make a thorough
search.
Nothing has developed in this coun-
try concerning Ethel Claire lie NeYe,
Crippen's typist, Of whom sight was
lost when the doctor vanished July 3.

Statements of Woman

Consideration
WITNESS TELLS ABOUT FIRE

SANTA ANA, July 21.-Judge z. B.
West today at the trial of Frank F.
Skelly for wife murder, decided to ad-
nit as testimony all the accusations
bade by Ethel Skelly against her hus-
band in the moments when she was
enveloped in a sheet of fame and dur
ing the later hours of her suffering.
The decision was called forth by a
conflict this afternoon of the attor-
news for prosecution and defense dur
ing the testimony of j. r. Cavanagh.
Cavanagh described seeing Mrs.
Skelly enveloped in flame with Skelly
following her He then said that as
she was handed over the fence Mrs.
Skelly said, "Oh, Mr.. Cavanagh, Mr..
Skelly has murdered me-"
At this point in the testimony the
defense interposed, demanding with
success that the statement be stricken
out.
DEFENSE OBJECTS
Cavanagh said that SkeIly remarked
while his wounds were being dressed;
"If L could only have kept her in the
house this never would have hap
pened."
When Cavanagh spoke of the time
when they were working over Mrs.
say: "I dropped it."
District Attorney Davis here ques-
toned "What statement did Mrs.
Skelly make?'
Here the battle over Mrs. Skelly's
statements began anew, Attorneys VIII
liams and Bishop for the defense OBJ
jecting to the question being answered.
Attorney Fleming of Los Angeles, as
sisting District Attorney Davis in the
prosecution of Skelly, declared that
Mrs. Skelly's statements should be
admitted.
JUDGES RULING
Attorneys for the defense Williams
and Bishop, said the charges had been
denied, therefore the statements un-
der the law were not admissible.
Judge West reversed his decision until
afternoon, settling the VeXed point at
that time by allowing the admission
of Mrs. Skelly's statements on the
ground that he did not believe that
it was the meaning of the upper court
that a mere denial should exclude all
evidence of the prosecution, as that
would vitiate the common class OF tes-
timony.
Cavanagh then proceeded with his
testimony, repeating Mrs Skelly's eX-
carnations during the day.
Frank, why did you throw gaso-
lene on me?"
"Why didn't you shoot me?"
'Why did you try to kill me?"
Cavanagh testified that all the an
swer Skelly made was 'T dropped it."
Coroner George S. Smith and STEM
ographer Eugene f. Hoff were then
placed on the stand to reproduce
Skelly's testimony at the inquest, af-
ter his wife's death and before the for
NAL charge of murder had been made
against Skelly. These were the last
witnesses of the day, the first witness
in the forenoon having been T. ].

GREAT PROGRESS
Secretary of Philippine CommlS-

NATIVES SOLVE PROBLEMS

Bearing most encouraging reports OF
the progress the natives of the phil
lppine islands are making toward self
government and civilization in its
higher forms, William H. Donovan,
secretary of the Philippine commits
sion, arrived in Los Angeles yesterday
on his way home for his annual vaca-
tion. He will return to the islands in
October in order to be there for the
opening of the Philippine legislature.
THE natives are making splendid
progress, graphing with problems or
government in most businesslike
manner and taking an interest in
themselves and their future that is
good to see," began Mr.. Donovan,
when seen at the Angelus yesterday.
And the major part of the credit for
this achievement is due to President
Taft. 1t was he who first conceived
and worked out the form of govern
ment which would best fit the needs
of the people and which would in time
lead to that which the United States
has always promised to give the ma
tives-self- government.
Even now the municipal govern
ment is entirely in the hands of ma
tives and they are doing well with it,
They also have a large part in the
central government and are getting a
larger part all the time. Several in
stitutions similar to those in the
United States, such as q postal savings
bank, have been adopted and bid fair
to be the greatest successes imagin-
able. Wharves have been constructed,
harbors built and deepened. railroads
and wagon roads built, all of which
are bringing our tar eastern possess
sions rapidly to the front, not only
commercially, but nationally
"The Americans in the islands are
also doing we'll and have accomplished
wonders since the war. Their princi-
pal work, of course, has been estab-
fishing the government on a sound and
stable basis, but they have also ad-
vanced along other lines and are all
PROSPEROUS and happy"

Associated Pressl

PARIS, July 21.-The police at Yer
nets-les-Bains, the little French water
ing place at the foot Of the Pyrennees
mountains are positive that Dr. Haw-
ley H. Crippen, widely sought by the
London police, was in their city last
Sunday and a vigorous search is being
made for the fugitive.
The procureur at Vernets-les- -Bains
teleSraphed today to the director of
the surete generate at Paris confirm
ing the identity of the man who ar
rived there under the name of Tarbout
on Sunday as DR.. Crippen.
The procureur added that he believed
Crippen had crossed the French from
tier into Spain.
The French detective department in
Paris is inclined to accept the pro-
cureur's views as to the identity of
Crippen, but is in doubt whether he
crossed the frontier at Vernets-leS-
Bains, as all the positive information
in the possession of the police indicates
that he left the train before it reached
Mount Louis, to which point he is said
to have taken passage en- route to
Spain.
HEADED FOR ANDORRA
The suspect, according to the belief
of the authorities here. instead of
making for Spain, is headed for An
DORA, the little and almost forgotten
republic of 5000 shepherd inhabitants
nesting in the foothills of the Pyren-
nees. Once in this country it is said,
eXtraditiOn would be difficult, il not
impossible. Andorra, which is under
the normal suzerainty of the president
of France and the bishop of Urgel, has
sometimes served as q refuge for per-
sons who have committed crimes.
NJ. Sebille, head of the research de-
n Of &c 6irppf-
ing the search in France for Dr. Grip
pen and his typist, Ethel Clara lie
Neve, who is supposed to have left
London in his company, opposes the
theory that the woman who killed her.
self at BOurges July 19 was Miss LIE
Neve.
NOT MISS LIE NEVE
He points out that the letter left by
the suicide was written in French, a
language Miss lie Neve is said not to
understand. Furthermore, the suicides
features were those of n person of a
Slavonic type, and NJ. Sebille believes
she was a Nihilist.
Photographs Of the suicide have not,
however, as yet been compared with
those of Miss lie Neve. Should the
suicide prove to be Miss LIE Neve it
would give consistency to the story
told by a guard on the boat train run
ming between Dippe and Paris that he
had seen a couple answering the de-
scriptiOn of DR.. Crippen and his typist
on July u. According to the guard,
the couple came through to Paris on
this train. Here they are supposed to
have separated, Crippen hurrying south
and the girl going to Bourges, where
she subsequently took her life Another
theory of the police is that the couple
went by steamer to Marseilles and
separated at that port.

.RANGEL FOUND GUILTY
OF Violating the Neutrality Law BY
Participating In the Battle of
Las Vacas In 1908.
(Herald Specially

San Antonio, Texas, Jan. S.-A jury
in the federal court today found Jos.
E. Rangel guilty of violating the neu-
trality law by participating in the
battle of Las Vacas in 1906, when a
number of Mexicans were killed by
revolutionists. Judge Maxey will pro-
nounce sentence in few days. The
Political Refugees League will appeal
in an effort to keep Rangel from go
ing to prison or Mexico.
Major. Enrique Perez of the Next
can army, testifyng for the prosecu-
ton, maintained that he saw Rangel
on the battlefield and also heard calls
for him. Ramon G. Ysaguirre, collect
or of customs at Las Vacas, gave evil
dence along the same lines.
The sentences imposed on others
convicted on similar charges have
been very heavy.
