Lord Chief Justice Alverstone. who presided in summing up for the jury, said he saw no reason why Doctor Crippen should have told Miss Le Xeve a story different from that which he told others.

Crown Argues Her (Tiiilt. London, Oct. 23. Ethel Clara Le Xeve was placed on trial 'oday as an accessory afiter the fact in the murder of Cora Belle Crippen, the crime for which her husband, Dr. Hawley H.

Crippen has been convicted and sentenced to die on the gallows November 8. As upon the occasion of the physician's trial, the court room was crowded with member's of the legal profession and as many others as could secure a place by right, or influence. There was this dilference in the audiences: Tf Crippen had any well wishers they kept in the back ground while there was a noticeable sentiment of sympathy for the girl who for the love of a man nearly twice her age had sacrificed her reputation, deserted her home and friends their association made her liable as an accessory to a brutal murder. Has Capable Counsel. Miss Le Neve was capably represented by counsel, who took, advantage of every technicality of the law to protect their client.

According to the prosecution, Miss Le Neve's relation to the crime as an accessory began very soon after the death of Mrs. Crippen. In the case made out against the doctor, Mrs. Crippen or Belle Elmore, as she was known on the stage, was murdered on the morning of February 1 and her dismembered body burled on the night of the day following. As Miss Le Neve sat in the prisoner's dock today she was a pathetic figure.

She is 27 years of age, of medium build, light brown hair, gray eyes and excellent teeth. Her face is pretty and she is trim. She wears good clothes becomingly and naturally buoyant and affable she is a prepossessing woman. Attired in Neat Costume. She was attired in the same neat blue costume which she wore at the preliminary hearing in the police court.

She entered the dock between two wardresses and remained occupied by the swearing in of the Jury. Miss Le Neve was an object for keen scrutiny on the part of the women who composed majority of the spectators.

I was selected at the primary elec-lion as one of the candidates for county attorney. I had no desire for the nomination, and sought to decline it, but as there is desire that be a choice of candidates, I have consented to remain. My reanons for not wanting in this campaign as a candidate wa's because I am so situated at home that I cannot get out to make a personal canvass, which every candidate ought to -do. However, the office of county attorney is an important one, much more so than the average citizen not In touch therewith appreciates. It is conducive to the public good or dangerous thereto, depending laregly upon the manner in which the office is conducted.

From these statements it appears that, during the two years w. D.

Kreamer was county attorney, 1905 and 1906, there was instituted in the district court 113 criminal cases. I do not have the number in the inferior courts of the county or the costs thereof. Of these 113 cases but thirty were ever tried or disposed of on their merits, the remaining 83 cases wero dismissed without prosecution. There were only twenty-eight convictions, many of which were pleas of guilty in ordinary cases. Aside from the jury fees which were very heavy, salaries, jail expenses, boarding prisoners, many of which were never tried, and other incidental expenses, these cases cost the county $14,465.85, or $516.71, for each, conviction in cases of every character.

During the first three and one half years of Ed Fleming's term there were Instituted lh the various courts of the county 305 criminal cases, 102 of which were tried or pleas of guilty entered, 203 being dismissed without prosecution, there being but 88 convictions.

Paul Dyer will leave tomorrow for I fore which be given for many cases being instituted to be dismissed later is because of indifference and absence of a proper preliminary investigation, it being much easier to file a complaint upon the naked statement i of an party, with an r.x to grind than to make a fair invesMga-tion of the facts. This kind of practice presents little evidence of diligence on the part of the prosecuting office, but rather tho contrary. Tt adds nothing to the peace and quiet and good order of the community, hut only ocntributes to the emoluments of court officers at the expense of the public, and inci-nently helps lawyers.

Neighborhood rows, and personal controversies should be kept out of court, an dthe custom of causing an arrest for every or technical offense growing out of them should be avoided if possible, as the result is always if convicted at all nominal fine, large court costs paid by the county as a general rule, and bad Reeling engendered and no good accomplished. I make no claim to infallbility or superior merit, but believe I understand some of the needs of this office (and if elected will institute reforms along the lines suggested.
