Inspector Dew From Scotland

That DR.. Crippen Is on the
Steamer Montrose.
is READY TO NAB HIM
just as Soon as the Vessel An

He Talks of His Trip Across the
Atlantic.

Father Point, Quebec. July 30
Chief Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard
threw off his reserve to some extent
today as to his close communication
with Chief Mccarthy of the Quebec
police department until late last night
and again this morning the two men
consulted on plans for the decisive
stroke when the steamer Montrose ar
rives off Father Point.
To one of the press representatives
who had been Of personal service to
him, Dew said:
81 am absolutely certain that the
persons on board the Montrose are DR..
Crippen and the Leneve woman. The
Laurentic was in touch with the Mont
rose on the way over and I received
messages from Captain Kendall which
leave no room for doubt about the
identity of the suspects.
"Crippen and the woman will be
greatly surprised when 1 step aboard
the Montrose and confront them. but
my surprise will be just as great if the
suspects turn out to be not the persons
I expect.
MY trip across the Atlantic was
without incident. Nobody on board ex-
cept the captain and the wireless oper-
ator knew of my identity. The passen-
gers merely thought me London busi-
ness man coming out to Canada on a
visit. The first intimation they had OF
my real mission was shortly after we
passed Belle Isle and messages began
to come from the land wireless station.
Since then 1 have been besieged by
newspaper men and by others acting
for them
Questioned as to whether he had
Yard since he left, the inspector re-
piled that he had received several
messages, all of which tended to con-
firm his belief that the persons on the
Montrose were the much sought Grip
pen and his typist.
The man from Scotland Yard ap-
peared nervous today There is no
seriously. Every movement suggests
caution on his part.
An illustration of wtI1is was furnish
ed when he telegraphed to Quebec to
have a special pair of London hand
cuffs a description of which he gave
purchased and held for him.
''They are," said the inspector, 1.-The
only kind in which I would be willing
to hold a prisoner for a long time. y
The steamer Montrose is ploughing
its way slowly through the eastern
end of the st. Lawrence river with
the suspects, the inspector believes
ignorant that they are under surveil-
lance. The steamer is expected here
about o'clock tomorrow morning
She will reach Quebec tomorrow af-
ternOon.
When the pilot boat puts out from
Father Point to place river pilot on
the Montrose, it will carry Inspector
Dew and the Canadian officials who
will make the arrest in case Dew
Identifies the suspects as Crippen and
Miss Leneve.
The following wireless message
from the steamer Montrose, directed
to the Associated Press was received
here this morning:

is abeam of Health Point, Anticosti

AUTTMN'S MENACE.
BY William Sharp.

"a MBER and yellow and russell
- gold and red,
The autumnal leaves dream they
are Summer flowers;
Day after day the MINDLESS sunny
hours
With feet of flame pass softly over
head.
Day after day over each perfshfng leaf
The MINDLESS hours pass with slow
fading flame;
No song is heard where floods of music
came;
Long garner'd on the fields the final
sheaf.
One day a wild and ravishing wind
viii rise,
One day paralyzing frost will come.
And all the glory be taken unaware.
Dark branches then will lean against
the skies.
Scar leaves will drift the forest path
ways dumb
And wood and woodland lie austere and

Why Doctor D. G. Williams,
Chicago Eminent Medical
Doctor, Took up the Study
of Osteopathy.

Before | studied medicine | was re-
porter for the Chicago Times-Herald
After / had practieed medicine for
several years we began to hear of the
wonderful cures that Dr. \. T. Still was
making out at Kirksville. Mo. We be-
lieved it was some kind of hypnotism or
faith cures
As l had been one of their reporters
and was also a practitioner of medicine,
was asked to go over to Kirksviile and
show up what a fraud this DR.. Still
was. | was as honest in it as I ever
was in any undertaking Of my. life. I
believed him to be one of the sickest
of frauds. But / received my first jar
the morning l arrived.
Twas going over to the infirmary and
who should | meet but an old patient of
mine, a manufacturer of Chicago, who
fer two yeras had been an invalid with
rheumatism. His limbs all drawn up
to his body. and he suffered intense pain
most OF the time. He could not rest in
a. bed but slept with his knees on pill
low and body leaning against a chair
As he walked up to me that morning,
looking robust and walking without even
a limp, nv enthusiasm over the thought
that I would annihilate this OsteOpathy
began to wilt and wabble at the knees.
| knew he was hard headed business
man and that no one could work on his
credulity.
He said he had been there for six
months. and after he had been there for
a month he felt so sore and weak that
he was utterly discouraged, but others
who had been there longer told him it
was the same with them after they had
taken for a short time they felt worse,
but it was only nature renovating his
system and that he had found this to be
true and that great many failed to
take long enough. But he was now en-
tirelv cured and was intending to 60
home soon He cited me to so many
other natients who were suffering with
rheumatism. until | began to think it
was for rheumatism only. For it surely
is a success in that line. for | must have
met A hundred cases and Il was the
same story from them all.
When I visited the institutions I met
an old friend of mine. Mrs. Foraker.
wife Of Gov. Foraker of Ohio. She had
been there for some time with her son,
who suffered with heart trouble. She
said he had almost entirely recovered.
But what interested her most in OsteO-
pathv was its efficacy in curing all
kinds of female troubles.
She said that as she was a friend OF
Dr. Alice Patterson. the lady physician
there at the time, she had watched sew
eral hundred cases and their ability to
relieve and cure all manner of female
diseases was to her the most astonish-
ing and gratifying of any experience of
her life She pointed out to me among
the great stream that is constant
" going and coming there any
number of ladies. and told me of
their various troubles and informed me
of some of them that were brought on
stretchers and now were the picture of
health. She also pointed ont MANY who
had Suffered from APPENDICITIS, and that
in every instance they hal been cured
and that there had never been surgi-
cal operation for any female troubles

Jealousy Among Men.
Two dramatic critics on different

ignoble passion that inspired the critics
to tell the public that they didn't speak

something fine and masculine, whatev-
er it was.
But women are petty. Women are

that there survived in her some of that
quality by remarking: Some women OF

To be catty is to possess two quail
ties of the feline-love of soft places
and a disposition to use claws. The
catty woman is fond of luxury, but
that common feminine trait alone does
not earn for her the title "catty." She
must, in combination with this, possess
the ability and the inclination to say
singing things Briefly, the catty
woman is selfish and she is sharp
tongued.

from journey, beset in his office by
two fellow craftsmen, who had conspir-

the artist of his aversion had been in

a drawing table at his right hand. The
illustrator literally squirmed under the
