 THE MoNTRosE.
4 WORLDWIDE CHASE ENDED
The Alleged London Wife Murderer Hunted Over Land and Sea by Scot land Yard Detectives-To Return to England at Once.

Montreal, Aug. 2.-A real detective story, the plot of which has never yet been conceived by a poet or Doyle, but has been told in the newspapers day by day, comes to it's last chapter with the arrest of Dr. Harvey H. Grip pen and Miss Ethel Le Neve by the Provincial police and Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard, on charge of hay ing killed Mrs Crippen, known on the stage as Belle Elmore. in London.
 1t was simple performance, this ar est. and carried out with all the ab- ;ence of theatricals, and display Of 'almness that was remarkable under he circumstances. In word 1t was Ill that staid stolid Scotland Yard could desire.
 Chief Mccarthy, of tle Quebec Provincial police, assisted by Chief Denis, of the Dominion police, put Dr. Crippen under arrest on deck of the Montrose at Father Point after he had been identified by Inspector Dew, as she was waiting for pilot Two minutes after. Ethel Le Neve the ssenographer. with the suspect. whom { rippen had long been infatuated with, was put under arrest in her cabin, still wearing the clothes of Doy.
 Inspector Dew stood face to face with the man he had let slip by him in London and was certain that the man disguised as Rev. John Robinson was his quarry. Feeling that he had now vindicated himself and feeling the most real Happiness in a year, In spector Dew continued on his way to Quebec with his prisoners. There they will be arraigned before Judge Janet fingers, the purpose being to deport them to London. It Is likely that ln- spector Dew will board the Royal George for the return trip with his prisoners on Thursday.
 The whole civilized world-and thanks to the wireless telegraph all the waters thereof had been for Is days, since July 13 searched for Grip pen and Ethel Le Neve, his girl com panion who had posed as his wife. And at last thanks again to the speed ing of news through the air and to the speeding of a second steamship through the water, he was captured and with a trial for murder confront ing him, after having completely dis appeared and perhaps after having had the strongest hopes that he would win his way, in disguise, to freedom. 
 For days he sailed the sea in ap- parent security robed as innocent clergyman with his companion attired as sickly boy student--his son. Scores of other passengers, ignorant of their identities and forgetful of the London tragedy talked with the two and knew them as The Rev. Robin. son" and Young Robinson" Proba. bly the man felt at times confident that he had escaped his pursuers by taking this obscure steamer from Antwerp to Canada.
 Yet all the while there was hover ing over him the hand of the law, rep resented by the air waves of the Marconi electric system. And days ago the laws hand practically descend. ed upon him. Early last week the the "Robinsons" were Crippen and Miss Le Neve. He sent the news drought his wireless. operator Llewel lyn Jones, simultaneously to England and to Canada. He watched tle ac- tions of the suspected pair made ire. quent reports of their every doing and saw the eyes of the police on both sides of the ocean were constantly on the fugitive though they were hun. dreds of miles away.
 Inspector Dew of the Scotland Yard police caught the Laurentic faster boat and reached this side of the world in time to identify them anc cause their apprehension. Meanwhile too hundreds of other vessels equip ped with the wonderful wireless were being searched; every seaport along every civilized coast of the world was being watched; every railroad station and city in Europe was being guarded lest the runaways journeyed by land It was calculated several days age that 50000 people throughout the world were doing little else but look for Crippen and his typist, Miss Ethel Le Neye. No such universal search has ever been made for missing per sons. It Is almost safe to say. now that they are caught, that they did not have a chance in thousand oI escaping.
