The Consul led the way followed by the two girls,
to greet the trusted General of the Sultan Clarke

blue burnoose, red drawers. and yellow boots

The Kaid started to interrupt him with some reply

his shoulder at the two girls.

looking at rose which the American girl blond,
bright and smiling, had pulled forward its stem
for her inspection. The Consul slipped his arm

The Consurs daughter would have inter

London, England. August 30.-Roth

Ethel Leneve were accused OF the
murder of Belle Gilmore in the formal
charge upon which they were arraign-
ed yesterday in Bow street police sta
tion.
The woman, who was Crippen's typ
list, is also accused of having harbored
and maintained the man after the
crime and doing so when she knew
that he was guilty.
Inspector Dew made the statement
this morning that DR.. Crippen declared
his companion had no knowledge OF the
crime and that the woman had also as
serted his innocence. Further than this
the prisoners have refused to talk.
Asking after the typist, Crippen
said to Dew: 81 will do all 1 can fol
her. It is only fair to say she knows
nothing about it. I never told her any
thing"
Prosecutor Humphreys explained
that the governments evidence agains,
the typist pointed only to her as ac-
cessory after the fact.
Neither Crippen nor the woman were
allowed to enter a plea this moTning
They were remanded to Jail without
