Many Persons Visit Crippen House
Where Budy Was Found.
London, July 18. The mutilated
and eaten body, supposed to be of Mrs.
Crippen, was burled in a pauper's
grave today unidentified. The great
Islington murder mystery is now deep
er still. Doctors testified they can
not tell whether the skeleton Is that
or a woman, much less that of Mrs.
Crippen. The Inquest- has been post
poned a month to give Scotland
Tard time to unearth evidence Jhat
the woman Is dead and find Doctor
Hawley Crippen, the American den
tist, suspected of the crime. Every
steamer In New York Is being search
ed at New York for him.
The coroner heard the testimony of
detectives and physicians today. Dr.
Marshall and the government physici
an testified there is no proof of mur
der, owing to the bad decomposition
of the body... The police admit the
strongest link In the evidence are the
disappearance of Crippon and his wife,
the conflicting statements and letters
of which Crippon wrote after his wife
had dropped from sight.
The Hilldrop Crescent res:4lonce of
Dr. Crippen. In the cellar of which
the mutilated body of the woman was

long the house was the center of at
traction fur great crowds of the erul

ations of the police, which have been
renewed In the hope of finding some
further clue to the crime.
During the latter part of the week
there has been a remarkable series of
murders In London, Newcastle and
Cromer, and In every case the mur
derer has escaped. According to the
published statement of her married
sister, Ethel Lenove, who Is believed
to have been Dr. Crlppen's compan
ion when he disappeared from his
home, In a hurried visit to h-r on
July 9. professed the greatest anxi
ety over the possibility that she was
not Crlppen's legal wife.
After the announcement of the
death of Belle Elmore, Dr. Crippen
introduced the Ijenovo woman as his
wife, although there had born no proof
forthcoming so fur that a marrlge
took place. The sister says Crippen
Informed Ethel Loneve that he had
Just discovered that Belle Elmore was
still living ami that he proposed to
go to America to clear up the matter.

was there a trace of tho man for
whom the police or the world are
