The inspectors evidence was a rene
tition of the now familiar story which
he had recited previously in the lower

While Alfred Asphalt Tobin. chief
counsel for Crippen, was cross exam

that the defendant exhibited no trace
OF anxiety or nervousness during the

The feature of yesterday afternoons

length Miller admitted he thought a
great deal of Crippen's wife but de-
MED their relations were other than
those of propriety.
When Miller entered the witness box

IRELAND RAISES FUNDS

Dublin.-Under the craftsmanship of
Bishop O'Donnell of, Raphoe, a COM
mittee has been formed for the pur-
pose of raising an Irish fund for the
relief of the widows and orphans of
the Spanish soldiers killed in Moroc-
CO. The movement has the hearty
approval of Cardinal Logue. who in
n recent letter wrote: "I think 1t
would be most deserving charity to
raise fund on behalf of the widows
and orphans of the Spanish soldiers
killed in Morocco. Ees2 EyrS weald

seeing that Ireland received IN the
past such generous aid from Spain
and genuine sympathy in her suffer-
ing Another consideration is that
Spain is now engaged in the old con-
flict which for centuries has ragged
between the infidel and the Christian
"a struggle in which Spain has al
ways led the van as the champion Of
Christendom."
