OFFICERS PROBABLY LEAVE TO- DAY FOR NEGRO TAKEN
 AWAY FOR SAFETY.
Case Will Be Called Friday When Special Grand Jury Will lnvesti.
 gate the Charges.

Harry Poe, the negro charged with a high crime against little 1O-year old Lena Adams in this city month ago, will be brought here from Little Rock for trial within q few days.
 His appearance will be necessary Friday morning. when a specially called grand jury will investigate the case, and if Poe is indicted he will be tried immediately in a special term of the circuit court for this case only.
 Immediately after the developments in the case against Poe were pubic there arose a strong sentiment against the negro and he was taken to the county Jail at Little Rock for safe keeping after several attempts had been made to lynch him here.
 There is doubt now if another pub lie demonstration will be made against the negro at least until after the trial. The officers have done all possible to hurry justice in securing the special grand jury and special term of court, and when the charges are substanti ated there will be no delay in carrying out the full provision of the law if the verdict of guilty.
 The crime of which Poe is charged calls for the death penalty. as we'll as providing that the execution shall be out in the open where the public may witness the hanging In all other crimes in this state for which the death penalty is in vogue. the execu- tion Of the prisoner must not be pub lie, only a limited number of persons being permitted under the law to be present.

GRANTS RESPITE
TO DR.. GR|PPEN
Home Secretary Churchill Will Give
Case Thorough Hearing Before
Allowing Execution.

LONDON, Nov. THE date for the
execution by hanging OF DR.. II. H.
Crippen, murderer OF his wife, Belle
Emore, the music hall singer. was to-
day postponed for two weeks or more.
Though no definite date has been set
The day originally fixed was tomor-
row.
The postponement was ordered on
cially bv the Home Once, which is
taken by many TO indicate that Home
Secretary Winston Churchill viii at
least give the case a thorough hearing
before he allows Crippen TO go TO the
gallows.
Late today It was semi-oflcially an
nounced that the execution would take
place on Wednesday, Nov. IS, unless
the home secretary shall decide to
grant commutation or pardon to the
wife-murderer.
At Scotland Yard It was said that
the postponement OF the execution
had nothing 10 do with the Philadel
phia report that Mrs. Crippen is alive
and hiding as the result OF fendish
plot 10 send her husband TO death.
The authorities declared that they had
not heard o. the rumor, nor had they
heard OF the offer OF DR.. Munyon, the
Philadelphia patent medicine manu-
facturer. to pay $4,000 for information
leading TO the discovery OF Belle Ell
more. alive.
Solicitor Newton, who has repre-
sented Crippen ever since the latter
was arrested at Father Point, Quebec
is busily engaged with the other law
vers In drafting a petition TO Home
Secretary winston Churchill, asking
either that he grant an unconditiona
pardon 10 Crippen. or that be commute
tho sentence 10 life imprisonment
Acting In the kings name. the home
secretary is now the only official VINO
has the mower 10 save Crippen from
the gallows. ~
while Il Is believed Churchill Will
investigate the case thoroughly II Is
hardly likely he will Interfere TO save
the prisoner. 1t Is against precedent
In England for the home secretary 70
intervene when jury has found q
nrisoner guilty and the Court of Grim
inaI Anpeal has sustained the verdict
Unless therefore. Crippen's lawyers
can bring to light a great deal ol
hitherto unrevealed evidence IL Is De
Iioved the American Will die OF
Nov. %. 80.
In some quarters It is said the post
-, nament was due TO the ancient Eng
Ilsh custom which allows prisoner
,wo sundays on earth between the
Anal hearing OF his case and the date
of execution. Crippen was allowed
two sundays between his original tria
and the date first fixed.
