(By Leased Wire )
London Sept. 16-Two
more government wit
nesses in the trial of Dr.
Crippen for the murder of
his wife today admitted
that they were unable defi-
nitely to determine the
sex of the body supposed
to be that of Mrs. Crip-
pen. The witnesses were
Dr. Wilcox in expert
analyst and B. ' S. Sallis-
bung a leading path-
ologist of London. The
feeling is conclusive here
that the evidence'! is a big
gain for the defense and
is believed to foreshadow
the' governmentVlnability
to prove that the body
was even that of a woman
much less than prove that
it was Mrs. Crippen's.
Died By Poison.
(By Associates Press j
London Sept. 16. In the crippen
trial today Dr. William Henry Wilcox
the scientist who discovered the dead
ly drug In the body found in the Crip-
pen cellar took the stand and swore
unqualifiedly that death was due to
poison. He said the victim couldn't
have survived the dose more thin
an hour.
The Bow street pollcj court room
was crowded by fashionably dressod
women In spite of the gruesome ex-
hibits and testimony. They watched
every movement of tbe treubllng Miss
LeNeve and the jaunty cool Dr. Crip-
pen Will Be Held To Grand Jury
(By Leaeed Wire.)
London Sept. 16 Regardless of the
v-eaknesa of the prosecution's case
It la conceded that Dr. Crippen will be
bound over to the grand Ju'y.
Inspector Dew was cross-examined
this afternoon and admitted that up
to the finding of the woman's body
he had nd suspicion that a crime had
been committed and that he had no
intention of arresting Dr. Crlpen. The
case has ben ndiournd unil Wednes-
day IK'Xt.
John Favor of Perth is in the city
Mr. Favor Is chairman of the Demo
cratic county central committee.
lavs just returned from a trip over
tho county" said Mr Favor "and I
can say that indications point ' a
Democratic victory in Loifan county
in November. The farmer are not
all satisfied with the way our Keputj
J!caw friends have been conducting
county affairs and the statements
heard about bridge deals etc. are ap-
palling. The board of county commlB
sioners have been running things
with a bi;;li band and the taxpayers
are sore. I feel quite certain a Dem
ocratic county board will bo elected
And there Is no question about tb4

PAVING ASSESSMENTS

Collected By city v m
End In Courts n
Storm clouds ranging from the site
of the white spot on the politician's
soul to the size and color of Cimar
ron township lu a Republican prim-
ary floated about the city council last
night. The lightning broke loose sev
eral times Including the tense occa
sion when Mtko White charged coun-
cil and W. F. Bower with being In
"cahoots" on tbo sewer business and
that other interesting period when the
Itlll puv'ng company and a lawyer for
the "poepul" gave notice of lawsuits
on anything the council might to 011
the paving contingent fund.
There were three absentee Big
gins Trapnoll and Duuham leaving
the Morrison crowd iu tho majority.
The Morrison braves showed tholr
teeth but twice and they made a
couple of killings.
Claim $1000 Damages.
B. F. Harris who owns land on both
sldos of the Cottonwood near the cut-
off at the Santa Fe brldgo south of
the city put In a claim for 11.000
because the city bad been pumping
water out or the stream or reservoir
thou for sale to citizens of Guthrie He
denied the right of tho city so to do.
Councilman Learner made a motion to
refer the thing to the water commis
sioner water committee and the city
attorney and Morrison secouled It
Soinobody else wanted the finance
commtltee and water committee. Mor
rison and Beamor acted peevish about
it and demanded a roll VI on the
Inference between putting the water
commissioner on and putting him ofr.
Tho Beamer motion carried by the
vote of Harthorne Baamer Morri-
son an dllopklns against Spurlock
Meyer and Butcher. The mayor had
refused to entertain tbe Beamer mo-
tlou because Beamer did not at the
Bame time make any motion toward
getting up to make It. TblnKs looked
like a promlslug row but the cloud
went over.
The Harris claim probably meant
that the city will be forced to buy
some land to protect Its water sup-
ply. Paving Contingent Fund.
I he proposition to set aside a one
per cent paving contingent fund came
up again. Tbe property owner pay
seven per cent interest on tholr ac-
counts running ror ten years. The
city payg the coiitractor six per cent.
Tho proposition of the council is to
put the money In a separate fund
whore it can be bandied. Harry yevy
attorney for the Hill paving company
said that the fund Is already separate
and that It does not belong to any-
body. Tbe paving company docs not
claim it but it remains In tbe treas
ury and Is an increasingly valuable
asset back of tbe city's obligations to
pay the principal and Interesfat the
end of ten years.
Councilman Meyer Insisted that the
money belongs to tho people who paid
It In and that the act providing for
the one per cent contingent fund 1
not constitutional. Levy sabl that be
wag talking on the theory that con
tinent fund means contlngiut fund-
one thst rsn b us'vl for al".' sny
thing.
Levy gave notice that if any of that
one per cent in any guise was divert
ed the Hill company would hold the
coiicllmen Individually responsible.
Lawsuit It Threatened.
W .B. Herod gave notice that If
the money Is used for anything ex
cept to band back to the people it
belongs to the people who pay for
paving therft would be a suit. He
eald the 18 per cent penalty doeg not
belong to the county either; and
would not belong until the suprome
court said so.
Council adopted the resolution or
dlnance Betting up the one per cent
lund as proposed. The ayo were
Spurlock .Hartshorn Hopkins. Dut
cher and Beamer and the nays Mey
er and Morrison. The fund is there
fore up for contention. If somebody
does not pull It down by law It will
fatten tor ton years. . .
