The Crinnen-Ieneye Trial.

London. Sept. S.-Dr. III. III. Grip
pen has lost his iron nerve. When
the supposed wife murderer appeared
i'm the Bow street court at the resump-
ton OF his hearing OF a charge OF
numbering his wife, Belle Elmore, it
was seen that Tuesdays development
of the discovery OF hyoscin poison in
the body supposed to be that Of his
wife, had wrought great change IN
him.
Tuesday Crippen was possessed OF
the greatest sang froid. Today he was
aeitated and he was overheard to con
verse anxiously with Miss Ethel Care
Leneve. his former stenographer, who
is charged with being an accessory
after the fact, regarding the testimony
OF Analysis Wilcox that he found more
than half grain Of hyoscin in the
body of the murdered woman. Unless
this evidence is successfully combatted,
it is generally believed that it will
prove death blow to Crippen's de-
Tense. Crippen is understood to have
planned a defense, in the event that
the identity OF the body is proved,
that his wife died as the result OF an
operation that he performed upon her,
but the presehce OF this poison in her
body will, it is believed, discredit such
a statement.
There was surprise on all sides that
Crippen should have been permitted
to talk with Miss Leneve. The evil
dent interest OF the latter in the fate
OF the man accused Of wife murdet,
tends to disprove the story that she
will be used as witness against Grip
pen. The prosecution is still working
on the girl in an effort to get her to
turn against Crippen, but so far she
has shown no indica ion Of doing so.
The proceedings in the trial today
brought out nothing new in the case.

MAYNARD TO APPEAL.

Congressman Harry l.. Maynard an
nounced yesterday that he would take
the advice suggested at the Portsmouth
massmeeting of Tuesday night, and
appeal from the action Of the demo
cratic executive committee OF the
Second Virginia congressional district
il refusing TO investigate the conduct OF
the recent democratic primary as con-
Quoted in Norfolk city and county,
and in awarding William A. Young, OF
Norfolk, the certificate of nomination
for Congress.
He will appear before the State com
mittee with the appeal on September
10. He says that he will bind himself
to nothing that does not contemplate
an investigation.

issued in Norfolk yesterday for a mass

against the conduct Of the primary and
the action Of the district committee,

Must Wear Dress suits or Wedding
Gown.

Montreal, Sept. s,-Without dress
suit or evening gown no one will be adj
mtted to the civic reception to the
papal legate, Cardinal Vannutelli, to-
night. This decision Of the civic com
mittee OF arrangements in charge of
the entertainment OF the Eucharlastic
Congress is being bitterly denounced by
many of the poorer classes OF the city.
The only concession in the matter OF
dress that the committee would make,
however, was not TO insist on decolIette
gowns or hats. Only 5000 invitations
have been issued.
Cardinal Vennutelli had quite re-
covered today from the effects OF his
fainting spell brought on by the fatigue
of the reception given by the Canadian
government.
The most distinguished arrival today
was Cardinal Gibbons, OF Baltimore.
His eminence hopes to persuade the
congress to hold its next meeting in the
United States, in his own city II posi-
BILE.
Formal business sessions OF the con
gress were held today, papers on various
religious topics being read by proml-
nent clergymen and laymen.

A SUBSTANTIAL victory for Great
Britain on perhaps the two most i'm
portant points, consolatory triumph
for the United States in the other five
points. with prospect OF another
arbitration later at the instance OF
the United States government, IS the
way the decision Of The Hague trl-
bunal in the Newfoundland fisheries
cases is viewed by government officials
in Washington. The decision,as stated
Yesterday, eliminated the right OF the
United States to share in the making
and enforcement of responsible regu-
lations" governing the fisheries IN the
disputed territory. The defeat Of the
Washington contentious on the first
point, which includes regulations as to
time and method Of fishing, is especi-
ally deplored in Washington. The
other lost ground concerns the head
land doctrine, wherein the British con-
tention was that the three marine
miles within which the United States
agreed not to take, dry or cure fish,
should be measured from an imaginary
line drawn across the mouth Of a bay
from headland to headland.

Debs or Roosevelt.

Manchester, Sept. S.-"Mr. Roose-
welt is first and last a selfseeker, a
Roosevelt man, and in all his specta-
cular political manouvering he is always
extremely cautious as to what effect
his vaudeville performances will have
upon his own political fortunes. Ac-
cording to Eugene V. Debs, former
s1cialistic nominee for President,
Roosevelt in his speech launching the
new nationalism" forgot that it was not
Roosevelt's but John Browns birth
day that was being celebrated" The
new nationalism," said Debs today, is
middle class rebellion against the
his interests. 1t is possible that these
Interests may precipitate panic as
the means OF checking ROosevelt's in
sane ambitions, and the poor as usual
will suffer.
