July SL Dr. Hawley Harvey Crlppen and Ethel Claire Leneve. his stenographer, who fled from tendon after the disappearance of Belle Elmore, the doctor's wife, were arrested here today aboard the Canadian Pacific liner Montrose, at the command of In spector Dew, of Scotland Yard. The Identification of the long-sought fugitive, by the detectives on the Eng lish steamer which had raced across the Atlantic ahead of the Montrose, marked tlte culmination of one of the most sensa tional flights in recent criminal annate.

They were no longer "Rev. John Robinson and eon." as booked from Antwerp on July SO. After brief delay, the Montrose con tinued her 160-mile journey up the river towards Quebec, where jail awaited the pair. Crlppen Is charged with the mur der of an unknown woman, believed to have been Ms- actress wife. Bel'.e Elmore. The girl is held a an accessory. In charge of Inspector Dew they will be taken back to England for trial, on the Jtnyal line steamship Royal George, leav ing Quebec on Thursday. ' Scene Is Dramatic. Seldom has there been a scene sur rounding the pursuit of a criminal so pregnant with dramatic features as that enacted off .this little settlement this morning. Inspector Dew had apent a sleepless night at the Marconi operator's aide, communicating through the fog with the liner that bore the man and woman lie snught. The man had lied to him In Jyind.m and fled the city with the jnystertea of Belle Elmore's disappearance unsolved and a strong personal feeling entered into the case, accentuating the detective's desire to carry out the task assigned him by Scotland Tard. At 4:30 A. M. the approaching ship's whistle was heard above the bellowing of the Father Point fog born. Ute a giant alarm clock It awakened the nervous villagers and the expectant newspapermen ,who dressed hurriedly and waited In a driailing rain for the liner's arrival. Crowded Boat Goes to Ship. Shortly after 7:30 o'clock the Montrose pushed ber nose through the fog and at 8:15 o'clock the pilot boat Eureka set out from shore. She carried a host of news papermen and photographers and the more fortunate townspeople -who were able to crowd aboard. But Inspector Dew wae not among them. As a precaution, he had em barked on the Eureka's small tender, ac companied by Chief McCarthy, of the Quebec police, and ex-Chief Dennis of ths same city. All wore the garb of pilots and over his florid face Inspector Dew had pulled a pilot's vleored cap to hide his features from the man he sought. He did not wish Crlppen to leeognize him. and take advantage of the only avenue of escape suicide. Four sailors quickly rowed the tender alongside the Montrose and Dew and his companions stepped aboard. Crlppen Is Suspicious. Crlppen was standing near ths rail talk ing with Dr. Stewart, the ship's surgeon, and attempting to' appear calm. But that he was nervous was Indicated by hk furtive glances and his remark to Dr. Stewart. There are three pilots coming aboard." lie said, nervously.

BREACH GROWING WIDER Papal Secretary of State, Unable to Retaliate, to Instruct Mgr. Vico lo Return as Soon as Pre mier Sends Word. ROME, July 31. The papal nuncio at Madrid, Mgr. Vlco, has not been re called by the Vatican, which Is await ing the official announcement of the recall by the Spanish government of Marquis de OJeda, Ambassador to the Vatican. The situation with regard to the. rupture with Spain, therefore, re mains practically unchanged. Vatican Takes Offense. The Vatican is greatly offended at the methods adopted by Premier Cana lejas In the recall of the Spanish Am bassador, as the announcement was made through the press, and neither the papal nuncio at Madrid nor the Vatican was notified directly. As a consequence, the papal secre tary of state. Cardinal Merry del Val. has not been able to take any meas ure of retaliation, but It Is believed that Mgr. Vlco 'will be Instructed to leave Madrid immediately after the official announcement of Marquis de OJeda' s recall Is received here. Further Tolerance Possible Ths opinion is held In some circles, however, that, the Vatican will give further proof of tolerance by permit ting the papal nuncio to remain at Madrid, notwithstanding the with drawal of the Spanish Ambassador, as was the case when the French govern ment ordered the French Ambassador at the V atican to return to Paris. On that occasion the papal nuncio. Mgr. Lorenielli, remained at Paris until diplomatic relations were completely broken off, and there are some who still hope that the recall of Marquis de OJeda Is merely temporary, his ab sence from Rome assuming the nature of a simple vacation, and that he will return when an agreement has been reached. RUPTURE WITH POPE FORCED Premier Canalejas Says He Tried to Effect Harmony. MADRID, July 31. Premier Canale jas describes the recall of Marquis de OJeda, the Spanish Ambassador to the Vatican, as "an Indefinite suspension of negotiations." The Premier today made a statement bearing on the con troversy between, the church and state since the beginning of the negotia tions. "The moment I assumed power," he said. "I opened negotiations for a re duction of the religious orders. The Vatican replied, offering less than was offered to Premier Maura. We were (Concluded on Page 2.)

COOK'S STORY DISPROVED Party Traverses Ruth Glacier on Snowshoes, Wades Turbulent Streams and Mired In Quick sandsPlans for Next Year. BY C. B. RCSK. Leader of Maxama Expedition to Mount McKinley. SEWARD, Alaska. July 31. (Spe cial.) After one of the bitterest strug gles In the history of mountain climb ing, the Mazama expedition, supported by The Portland Oregonlan and the New York Herald, was compelled to abandon the ascent of Mount McKinley for this season. The provisions of the party were ex hausted, and a quick retreat was found necessary to escape starvation. On leaving Talkeetna,' May 29, the members of the party found that their poling boat was unfitted to carry the supplies of the expedition up the swift Chulltna. The outfit divided and with an Indian boatman secured for a week the party struggled up the treacherous stream, wet to the skin each day. Ham pered by rainy weather, wading ruBh ing sloughs, sinking Into qulcsand to the waist, rowing through rapids in the overloaded boat, lining around the perpendicular walls of the Chulltna Canyon, the expedition won Its way mile by mile until, on the afternoon of June 10, Camp Rodney, on the Toko sltna, was reached, with a scant sup ply of provisions. It rained every day. The Indians who had agreed to bring more food failed to come. A young caribou wan dered Into camp and was killed by Rid ley and added to the scant stores. Food Supply Fails. - A trail was cut three miles through a tangled forest to the moraine of Ruth Glacier. The party began relay ing its outfit on June 22 toward the glacier, having three packs of from 40 to 60 pounds to each man. Several glacial rivers were crossed on foot logs, and one liver at the glacier was waded with the entire outfit. The low er half of Ruth Glacier was very rough. It took five miles of traveling to gain one mile. The way led over the rough boulder-strewn moraln, the broken ice fields and rotten snow stretches. Men with their packs often fell Into boles and crevasses. The only foods were pemmlcan, pea soup and Jerked cari bou. For 17 days alcohol was the only fuel. Cool returned on July 1 to the base camp because of food shortage. Camp Independence was established on July 4, near where Dr. Cook took his al leged photograph of the summit of Mount McKinley. A side trip was taken on July 5 to find this spot. The upper part 'of the glacier was covered with snow. There was no plant or animal life. It was a veritable Arctic world. Foot of Mountain Reached. The foot of Mount McKinley was reached after 20 days of tremendous hardships, and Camp Morden was es tablished on the snow In the midst of the most sublime scenery on the globe. The expedition was now confronted by the great perpendicular walls of Mount McKinley, up which it would re quire weeks or months of exploration to find a way. Only a few days' pro visions remained, . and there was no way to get more. All that could be done was to take a lot of pictures and reconnolter the way for a future as cent.

President Taft motored 150 miles today to see his aunt," Miss Delia Torrey, of MiUbury. Mrs. Taft, Master Charles Taft, Henry W. Taft. of New York, and Captain Archibald Butt went along, too. Horace D. Taft, another brother of the President, was already at Aunt Delia's home. The President started out from Beverly shortly after 10 o'clock this morning, reaching Millbury Just after 1. Coming back, they left Aunt Delia's house at 4 o'clock and at 8, the President was back at the Evans' cottage once more. The luncheon at Aunt Delia's was wait ing when the party swung down at the gate. Aunt Delia, gray-haired, dressed In sober black, a little bent, beside ber big nephew, escorted him into the house. After dinner, "Aunt Delia" took "Will" to call on some of the neighbors. As the two passed out of the Torrey place arm In arm, and walked along the street, the President could be heard chuckling and laughing. "Aunt Delia" was as hap py as could be. At Worcester, on the return trip, Henry W. Taft left the party, for- he is bound for New York and Europe. The President has a busy week before him. Frank B. Kellogg,- of St. Paul, and Governor Eberhardt, of Minnesota, will urge the President to speak at the Na tional conservation congress at St. Pauf early In September. General Leonard Wood will also be here tomorrow. MRS. THOMAS HAS TROUBLE Estate Agents Cannot Find Suitable House for Her Abroad. LONDON, July 31. (Special.) Estate agents who find suitable town and coun try mansions for American millionaires and society folk every season are rush ing about just now to secure a residence for Mrs. Ralph H.

Immediately after her marriage, in structions were cabled to two of the lead ing agents in London and to one tn Dub lin, to find her a residence in either country at any cost. In Ireland, she would have been offered Tanderagee Cas tle had not another American woman, Mrs. A. D. Loney, been in negotiation for the place. Few family mansions are available in the fashionable London neighborhoods just now and it is likely Mrs. Thomas must be satisfied with one of the luxur ious flats which abound in Belgravia. Eng lish country mansions are neither plenti ful nor adaptable to the requirements of wealthy American women. QUEEN T0QUIT MADRID Wife of Spain's King to Visit Rela tives on Isle of Wight. COWES, July 31. (Special.) Within a day or two Queen Victoria, of Spain, will arrive in the Isle of Wight, to visit her relatives at Osborne cottage.

She will remain about a month and will be accompanied by her three children, but unless the situation clears In Spain, King Alfonso will not be able to leave for Madrid before the end of the month. Queen Victoria's visit is to be purely private throughout, but she will visit Windsor In order to lay a wreath on the tomb of the late King Edward, and she will probably spend a few days in her old home in Kensington Palace. It is ex pected that during her stay. King Alfonso will extend a formal invitation to the King and Queen of England to pay him a state visit to Madrid. MAN, MISSING IS MYSTERY Wife of S. A.

Nearly 300,000,009 acres of public land, the cream of the -West, is today withdrawn from entry, and held beyond the readj of the set tler and the home-builder. Some of it Is permanently withdrawn, as, for in stance, the forest reserves. National parks, etc., and other portions may in time be again placed within the reach, of the people of the West. But at tha present time this enormous acreage is absolutely tied up, - undeveloped. In accessible, and for the most part unin habited. There remains of the public domain only about 700,000,000 acres that Is unappropriated and unreserved, and a very small percentage of this residue la attractive or will ever be attractive to settlers. Included In this acreage are , the bad lands of the West, the irre claimable ' deserts, barren mountain summits and worthless mountain coun try.. Only a small portion is arable, and very little is of a character that will permit of agricultural develop ment.
