THE DRAMATIC
ARREST MADE
BY INSPECTOR
SCOTLAND YARD MAN BOARDED
MONTROSE AS PILOT AND CON-
FRoNTED ACCUSED MAN AND
WOMAN COMPANION.

Father Point, Que, August 1.-Dr.
Hawley Harvey Cripren and Ethel
Glare Leneve, his stenographer, who
fed from London after the disappear
ance of Belle Elmore, the doctors wife
were arrested here Sunday aboard the
Canadian Pacific liner Montrose at the
command of Inspector Dew of Scot
land Yard.
Crippen, betraying his surprise and
shock at being trapped nevertheless
expressed relief that the strain was
over. AS Inspector Dew put him un-
der arrest, he exclaimed: Thank God!
The suspense is overt" Miss Leneve
sank into collapse, requiring the ship
doctors attention.
The Identification of the long sought
fugitives on board the fog shrouded
steamer by the English detectives, who
had raced across the Atlantic ahead of
the Montrose, marked the elimination
Of one Of the most sensational flights
in recent criminal annals.
Disguised as Pilots.
Accompanied by two Canadian Off
cerr, Dew boarded the vessel at $3.50
o'clock Sunday morning, when fifteen
minutes later man and girl were locked
In their staterooms, Crippen broken In
spirit but mentally relieved by the re-
laxed tension; the girl, garbed in boys
clothes, sobing hysterically. They
were no longer the "Rev John Robin
son and son." as booked from Antwerp
on July 20.
Inspector Dew as precaution had

tender, accompanied by Captain Nc
Carthy of the Quebec police and ex-
Chief Denis Of the same city.
All wore the garb of pilots and over
his fiorid face Inspector Dew had pull
led a pilots vizored cap to hide his
features from the man ne sought. He
did not wish Crippen to recognize him
before he could approach and take ad-
vantage of the only avenue to escape
suicide.
"GIad Suspense is Over"
Four sailors quickly rowed the ten
der alongside the Montrose and Dew
and his companions stepped aboard.
Crippen was standing near the rail
talking with DR.. Stuart, the ships sur
geon and attempting to appear calm.
But that he was nervous was indicated
by his furtive glances and his remark
to Dr. Stuart, There are three pilots
coming aboard" he said nervously.
"Is that not unusual?"
The surgeon did not reply. but kept
his eyes on the strangers who walked
rapidly toward them.
"Crippen, want you," said Inspector
Dew, quietly, as he approached. The
dentist recoiled involuntarily as he re-
cognized the man who approached him,
then the blood left his face his breath
came short and fast, and he gurgled
incoherently.
Girl Is PitiabIe Figure.
As he was being led away to the
captains cabin whence he was trans
ferred to his own stateroom, he said
gratefully. Thank God. The suspense
is over, and am glad"
Crippen's arrest accomplished, Dew
hurried to Miss Leneve's stateroom,
where he found her still dressed as
"John Robinson, Jr., on the verge of
a nervous breakdown. Her appear

OPIUM HABIT HOLDS
INDIANS IN ITS GRASP
Local Police Officers Make DiScOv-
cries in Arrests

The pills that are secured from otn-
ers are then fed to the confined man
in small quantities, or enough to keep
the hend from going absolutely crazy
! The wonder of the whole affair is
where they get the money to keep
the practice going. The ChiNamcn
charge fifty cents per bottle for the
doctored dope ti1at the Indians buy,
and one of the small bottles only
lasts few days. 1t is the love of the
drug that takes the Indians into Chi
natown
The local authorities are trying
to break up the practice by keeping
the Indians away from Chinatown.
This helps to a large extent. but the
Cinnamon on the other hand sell the
dope away from the main settlement
and its hard matter to regulate.
Formerly the Indians were expert
smokers of the drug. Since the pro-
hibition of importation this luxury
has been abandoned, and very few of
the Cinnamon indulge. Most of the
real opium joints have closed for
want Of patronage
The officers are doing everything
in their power to prevent the secur-
ing OF the drug by the Indians, and
have in measure cut down the per-
centage.

that some son of the red man or the

the opium habit.
The drink business has proven bad
enough but the opium habit, which is

As soon as an Indian is landed in

per cent of the arrests there is opium

This is now found in tne form of

In one instance the local jail au-
