BURIED UNDER
Cement FLOOR
Body Of Long Missing Wife Of
a Doctor Is Found
HEAD BATTERED WITH CLUB

Effort to Hasten Destruction of Re-
mains by Stab Wounds and Quick
lime-London Police Believe Sup
posed Murderer Is on Steamer
Bound For New York With a Wom-
an Disguised as a Boy
New York, July ia cable dis
patch received at police Headquarters
from Scotland Yard, London, asks
that all incoming steamships be
watched for DIR. Hawley H. Crippen,
an American, who is charged with the
murder of his American wife, Belle
Gilmore, a music hall actress. Scot
land Yard has started a worldwide
hunt for Crippen.
Mrs. CripDen disappeared last Feb
ruary, and her body has just been
found buried under the cement floor
of the house the Crippens occupied
at 80 Hilltop Crescent, Islington,
suburb Of London.
The autopsy shows that Mrs. Grip
pens head had been beaten in with a
club. There were many stab wounds
on the body, but apparently they had
been made after death to hasten the
destruction of the body by quick
lime.
Mrs. Crippen was born in Brooklyn
and had relatives living there. Grip
pen was born in Coldwater, Mich. so
years ago, and was graduated from
medical college in Indiana. They were
married in this city about fifteen years
ago and were we'll known here and in
Philadelphia.
Crippen was the London agent for
the Munyon Remedy company of Phil
adelphia, the Dean Drug company and
the DR.. Emf Institution, a Paris con-
Germ making a speciality of treating the
deaf.
The Scotland Yard detectives be-
lieve that Crippen is on his way to
New York on a steamship that sailed
from England last Saturday. He
dropped out of sight last Friday night.
There is another woman il the case,
and she is with him.
The woman is described in the Scot
land Yard dispatches as Ethel c. Lee
neve. She is posing as the wife of
Crippen. She was. Crippen's type
writer in his London Office in New Ok
ford street.
Mrs. LeReve is of French birth but
was reared in London. She is 27 years
years old and very good looking. From
information they have gathered the
Scotland Yard men believe that she is
travelling disguised as a boy.
The assumption is based upon the
fact that Cgippen bought a boys suit
shortly before he disappeared. Grip
pen himself is small of staure and
slight of build He has scant sandy
hair, fresh complexion and at the
time of his disappearance wore long
mustache, which doubtless has been
cut off ere this.
A formal charge of murder and mu-
tilation has been made against Grip
pen by the Scotland Yard authorities.
There will be no difficulty about ex-
traditing him if he is caught.
At the time the murdered woman
married Crippen she was a prepos-
sessing girl of very fine figure. She
was of Polish descent, and told her
friends that her father was a noble
man who had been driven from his
country.

Wagner m Big Sismp

What is responsible for the remark able and unlooked-for slump in the batting of the mighty Hans Wagner?
 This is the question that has set all Pittsburg agog. The fans are much alarmed. as the Flying Dutchman" was always looked upon by them as the greatest batter in the world and ex- pected to hold the Pirates up in the race on practically his batting alone. 4 The last time Wagner slumped mo- ticeably in his batting was due to the mean methods of the fans themselves. It seemed number of the bugs" got to betting among themselves on how many hits Wagner would make each day. When he fell down the gamblers roasted the life out of him. That al- most got Wagner's goat.
 This time the slump is due to anoth- CT cause. It is said that much bad

Johnson Relies 0n His Righf

Unless something unforeseen happens Jack Johnson will enter the ring on July in great condition for the most noted ring battle ever undertaken-a fight that will attract the sporting fra ternity of the world.
 Jack continues to work hard at pres ent despite the reports that Governor will prevent the big battle. Monte Cutler. Joe Cotton, Watson Burns and Sailor Burke. all heavy weig''t fighters and men who attained a certain csnipence in the ring, are his spaTring partners. and their instruc- tiors are to treat Johnson just as though he were in a ring and they were struggling for a decision. 'T want to be put into shape by big. husky fighters who can give punish ment and who are ready to take it. said the fighter. T don't want to box. I want to fight. and these men who go into the ring with me are able to stand it. If they get 8 chance to get a good. solid whallop home while we are box ing. I want them to do it. and some times they do. I want to be ready to take beating and still stand up and fight"
 Each of the three fighters stands up to Johnson for several rounds each day. They fight hard and put the cham pion to all his ingenuity to escape pun ishment In addition to his boxing he puts in at least twelve miles on the road each day.
 Johnson's favorite punch Is right hand uppercut in the breakaway of a elinch. the blow that put Stanley Eetchel away and that made Tommy Burns regret stepping into the ring with the negro. and it is the chief stock tn trade of the big fighter. In his daily bouts with his trainers Johnson works steadily at this punch and keeps tho others busy saving themselves the cf- fects of a disastrous blow. He also practices avoiding the shifty uppercut, Jeffries' favorfte blow tbat has won the big white mans battles for him

 The plan by which Johnson hopes to defeat the one known man who now stands between himself and uudisputed worlds championship has been thought out and will be adhered to during the struggle.
 q will stay away from Jeffries for the first ten rounds" said Johnson. "and hope he will tire himself out For ten rounds I will let Jeffries do the work. and then. when my strength will be as fresh and ready as ever. I will carry the fight to Jeff and hope to put him away"

couple of gruelling bouts of ten rounds or more the public will have pretty fair line on James J., providing all the visiting newspaper correspondents are present and speak the truth in telling what comes off.
 Johnson has a whole raft of sparring partners in camp. They are young and ambitious. but do not get enough of the right kind of work. Black Jack seems to be training for an automobile race rather than a worlds championship title.
 Commenting on this angle of the big fight, a Philadelphia writer is out with the following:
 There is such thing as doing ones work too we'll, and it looks as if the men in charge of the advertising of the big Jeffries-Johnson fight might be classed with those who are so enthusi-i astic that they work overtime.
 Tt would baff1e the best of lawyers to draw a clear deduction as to the physical condition of the two fighters who are to battle for the heavy weight championship on July 1. Yet each day long telegrams are being sent east re- lating the doings at the camps of the two principals. Taken collectively they make queer reading. i
 "One day Jeffries is as strong as a lion, the next he is covered from head to foot with boils. The day following he knocks out all his trainers in jig time, and the day after he is in such poor shape that he must have a day off to go fishing. Taken all in all, the ex- Qf f n m Yfnr1'c oinin0 fo tie better than joke, judged from this distance. W
 At Johnson's place there is not much earnest work being done that anybody can find out about. Joy riding in his big automobile seems to be the prin- cipal occupation of the man who is to try to win championship contest only few days off.
 'If 1t Is the ambition of the press agents of the fight to keep the follow CTS of the sport up in the air as to the real condition of the men, and have everybody guessing as to what is being done in the training camps, they have succeeded most thoroughly. But. on the other hand. they have started a great many people thinking as to- whether the men are really in earnest fin their effort to get in the best pos sible shape for a long and gruelling contest within so short a period.
 Honesty is the best policy when dealing with the public, and it pays just as well in connection with a glove contest as 1t does in any other line. It would certainly be refreshing to have a few hundred words from the camps of Jeffries and Johnson on the real condition of the men,"

Football Rules Rebissd

Footbell players will have many re. strictions placed upon them when they don their armor this year. The changes in the style of play already decided upon Include the following:
 Removal of five-yard restriction either side of center. for quarterback or man receiving the ball from the snapperback, in running.
 Seven men on the line of scrimmage (Which particular men to be decided on at the present meeting.)
 Absolute prohibition of the flying tackle. Penalty and just how to limit it to be determined later.)
 Four periods of play instead of two halves, as before, with brief inter mission between the first and second and third and fourth periods and the usual intermission between the second and third. ---.---.
 Adoption of a stringent rule against pushing or pulling the player running with the ball, with limitation in the use of the hands by his team mates, as now applies to opponents.
 Modification of the onside kicp, pro- viding for the ball to go at least twenty yards beyond the line of serimmage before the attacking players are on side.

The track must get a totalizer, or whatever you call it. This will cut the proceedings short. especially if they can get hold of a lightning calculator.

 Before Corbett reached the coast it was given out that Jeff wanted some one to rough it with him and that there would be daily bouts at the camp that would be nothing short of champion ship fights. So far nothing of the sort has taken place, and from the present outlook there are to be no rough bouts at ale Jeff has neglected the gloves to an alarming extent and the sports cannot understand what it all means.

have been Eliminating for some time

and vote. Men with backbone and de-
termination. not afraid to stand up for
their convictions and carry out their
pledges were sought far and wide.
Finally Georgia elected Hon. Hoke
Smith as governor; Alabama. Conner;
North Carolina, Glenn. These governors
as far as l could see, did their very best
to redeem their pledges, and by the CO.
operation of senators and representatives
succeeded in a great measure. When
and wherever you tackle railroad COM
binatlons to change their "modus oper-

ouently, these governors were accused of
being too drastic. They saved several
thousands of dollars per annum in freight
and passenger rates without injury to the
railroads i'm the least. Railroads have
excursions on reduced rates for the ex-
press purpose of making more money.
Empty cars and empty seats make no
money: full cars and seats do. Like
