CITIZENS TALK
ABOUT A CHANGE
OF GOVERNMENT
A MEETING WAS HELD LAST.
NIGHT AND THE MATTER
DISCUSSED.
A. v. Wood Explained the Staunton
Form of Government, Which is
Proving Very Porniar-Other citis
zens Made Short Talks.

number of citizens gathered at
the city hall last night for the DUR
pose of hearing discussed the various
forms of city government The meet
ing was deld under a call issued BY
A. V. Wood, who has made a study
of the various forms of government.
Owing to the bad weather of the pre-.
vious two nights and the lack of ad-
vertising that the meeting received,
the attendance was small.
Mr.. Wood made a lengthy talk. in
which he gave those present the BEN
eft of his knowledge of the Staunton
form of government, which plan he
thinks should be adopted by the city
of Brunswick. Mr.. Wood has made
a study of this new plan and he had
the facts and figures at hand. In
every instance it was shown that the
Virginia city had grown and prosper
ed since adopting the new plan,
which puts the city on a basis of any
large business concern.
Staunton has her mayor and alder
men, but general manager is elect
ed each year and he has absolute
charge of the operating department
Of the city and the head of every de-
partment reports to him. In other
words, he is the same to the city Of
Staunton as any general manager is
to the business which he manages.
Mr.. Woods talk was a very inter
esting one and he went into full de-
tails of the plan, showing how bene-
hclal it had been to the Virginia city.
T.. G. Butts, candidate for mayor,
was next called upon. Mr.. Butts
stated briefly that he and his friends
had suspected that the move to
change the form of government was
political scheme and for that rea-
son many of his friends were not
preent- He stated, however. that hs
mad given the commission form con-
siderable thought and he was salts
ned that it had proved success in
other cities. He stated, though. that
he did not think that this was an
Opportune time to consider a change
in the form of government for Bruns-
wick
Alderman Ludwig was next called
upon. He stated that he was merely
present to get some information; that
he was not welded to any particular
form of government, but wanted to
hear the various plans discussed.
Several other short talks were
MADE, after which the meeting was
adjourned. Whether or not the ques.
ton OF changing the form of govern
ment in Brunswick in the near future
VIII be further considered Just at
this time Is not known.

CR|PPEN To TELL
STORY Of BELLE
ELM0RE' DEATH
SPECULATION AS TO ExPLANA.
TION DENTIST WILL MAKE OF
WIFE'S DISAPPEARANCE.
Story of Wife Dying in America
May be Discarded by Defendant;
He May Still Stick to Letters r, :,
Says ie Recovered.

London, Oct 20.-It was decided
today t. place Dr. Hawley H. Grip
pen, the American dentist, on the
witness stand to tell his own story
of the mysterious disappearance of
his actress wife, Belle Elmore, with
whose murder he is charged. Exact
ly when he will take the stand IS not
known.
There is much speculation as 70
tie explanation Crippen will make
of his wife's disappearance. IN let
ters to Belle Elmores relatives in
Brooklyn, he told a sad, fearful slory
of her alleged death while en- route to
LOS Angeles. Were =, t #i,o l-> z ted

are wondering if he will relate the
same story on the stand. Crippen ap.
pears to be thoroughly composed and
there is no DOUBT but that his story,
regardless of what it is, will be
somewhat plausible in character.
Sex Not Determined.
The sex of the muitilated and de-
composed body found in the cellar of
the Crippen home and supposed to
be that of Belle Elmore, has never
been definitely testified to by the
medical experts called by the crown.
Drs. Marshal and Spilsbury today re-
peated their testimony given in the
lower courts and confirming the tes-
tlmony given yesterday by Prof. Pep
per, that members of the body were
human, but they could not determine
anatomically the sex of the victim.
Teresa Hum, kinswoman of Belle,
Elmore, who came from America to
testify, has submitted the only testi-
mony which could he taken as proof
that the body was that of the actress.
She testified yesterday that a scar
found on the body, was similar to
one borne by Belle Elmore for many
:earS .
EeNeve Not In Court. a.
Ethel Clara LeNeve, the girl typist
with whom Crippen made the fight
to Canada, has not yet appeared Ia
