PRISONERS SUPPORTED.
| As they appeared on the gangplank
| and caught sight OF the enormous
| crowd that surged about the pier, des-
perately determined to get glimpse
at the pair, Crlppen and the woman
| would have fallen but for the arms
| which supported them,
Crippen's msnacled hands swung
loosely in front of him. Miss Leneve
swayed from side to side. Her closely
cut hair still gave her the boyish APP
pearance which she had tried to adopt
and many OF the crowd were fooled
into thinking that the diminutive
figure was not that of the
woman who had challenged the
attention of two continents and
believed the police were using
little boy disguised as woman
to distract the attention of the crowd
and so give them opportunity to re-
move the real prisoner with less in
convenience The little procession had
scarcely reached the foot OF the gang
plank when the pushing crowd closed
in around II and II was only after
the police had charged that they
were able 20 make a passage TO the
cab that was waiting just outside the
pier shed
STRUGGLE WITH CROWD.
When the officers found an opening
they half carried their charges to the
carriage, pushed them inside and in
another moment the vehicle was cat-
tering along the wooden floor OF the
pier and out into the narrow street
that led to- the provincial buildings.
The floor OF the provincial Jail stood
open. waiting is new guests and the
formalities necessary were quickly
over Crippen was placed in cell
smaller than the stateroom which he
and his typist had occupied on the
Montrose More consideration was
shown to Miss Leneve. She was
given a large and com paratively com
Portable room on AN upper floor. This
room had been fitted up for the oc-
cupation of a scrubwoman employed
in the Jail II was at the request OF
this humble servant OF the public that
this room. better than any provided
for prisoners. was given to the little
woman who for love OF man has
found herself a fugitive from justice.
The act appears TO be typical of the
feeling prevailing here among a large
part of Quebec's population today. The
public refuses TO put the woman in
the same class with the man.
CROWD OUTSIDE JAIL
Early today throngs gathered outside
the jail In anticipation OF the appear
ance OF the prisoners in court. Next to
the accused the object OF the great
est public attention is Inspector Dew.
The latter wore an air this morning
not noticeable before. The successful
conclusion Of his mission has put
new light In his face
Nevertheless the Scotland Yard man
knows that a great responsibility stu
rests on him, His prisoners have been
caught but they are Yet to be safely |

lleved that Dew has failed to secure |
the hoped-for confession. While his |

Just how much Crippen knows Of the !
case against him IL in doubt. Whether |
hs has learned that the Britishs au- |
thoritles have been unable TO identity |
the dismemhered bo-y found In the |
celia r nj his Hllldrop Crescent home as |
that of his actress wife is not known. |
without such identification lawyers |
saw a conviction may be impossible.
DOW has said that Crippen was 4
coward. Dew, however, has been mis-
taken about Crippen before now, he
vas mistaken when he accepted Grip |
nen's promise to remain In London.
Another hero today is Capt. Kendall
of the Montrose, who discovered ths
identity of the suspects after they mao
eluded the police OF ,ne other side for

he suspected Crippen the moIneht ne
laid ewes on him shortly after the man
hoa rded the steamer at Antwerp on 1
