Dr. Crippen's Career Reviewed by Prosecutor. v (By Cable to The Times) London, Sept. 6 Tho charge against Ethel Clare LcNcve, co-de fendant with Dr. H. H. Crippen, was today reduced to that of being an ac cessory after' .the fact. This was an nonnccd when the hearing of the pair was resumed in the Bow street police court. : When arrested she was ac cused of being an accomplice. Prosecutor Travers Humphreys who made the announcement, also for the first time gave out the case of the prosecution, declaring that the examination of the remains of Belle Elmore (Mrs. Crippen)' showed that there had been a criminal operation on the victim, while the chemical analysis revealed large quantities of hyoseln, .0110 of tho most powerful drugs known. A few days before the death of Belle Elmore, her husband bought five grains of hyoscin, enough to kill 40 persons. All night long crowds surrounded Bow street police court, to get a glimpse of the prisoners when they were taken in today for the contin ued hearing before Magistrate De Rutzen. At dawn the throng in creased, and by the time the princi pals in the most enthralling mystery of a decade were hurried into the building, flanked and led by guards, fully 10,000 people were crowded about the court and on the adjacent streets. A heavy detail of police was hard put to it to preserve order. When the prisoners mounted tho steps of the building the ' crowd surged forward and several persons were crushed. Four women had .to bo carried from the danger zone by the police. More officers, banked about the entrance of the court house dashed to the rescue, and gradually, foot by foot, the crowd was forced bacK.

At least that is what ho told mem bers of the national conservation congress. "The people of this country should erect a monument to Gilford Pln chot," he declared. "He deserves it for saving the coal lands of the coun try, if nothing else. I don't taue stock in the Ballinger way of run r.ng things and if I were president, I would kick him out of oftice :n a minute '-. I would like to see some of these Alaska coal thieves. I'd put them where they belong." The militant Kansas governor, however, paid a slight tribute to Taft. His brief and vitrolitic address was called forth by remarks of Governor Norrls, of Montana, who advocated state control of natural resources. He hastily apologized ancdla what he intended to do, as he said, to Intro duce Governor Vessey, of Sourth Da kota. Later Governor Hay, of Washing ton, and Land Commtsstoner Ross, also of Washington, fipoke to Gov ernor Stubbs after the session, but the latter paid no heed to their re marks. .

THE RECORDERS COURT Monthly Report Shows 127 Out of 159 Cases Convicted Number Sent to the Roads Amount of Fines Imposed City Schools Open Today Trinity College Opens Tomonow Negro Firemen Off For State Tournament. (Special to The Times) Durham, Sept.. 6 The report, of the recorder's court for tho month of August has. been '.completed and was turned over to the aldermen yester day afternoon. It is an interesting summary of the doings of the city tri bunal. Tho report shows that during the month a total s of 159 Vases were tried, a number slightly above the average, which is about 140, Ot this numher 127 were convicted, 12 were dismissed, three bound over, f our continued, and 13 appealed from the decision of the court. Twenty-live of the defendants were sent to the roads and workhouse. The grand total of fines and costs paid to the court during the month was $1,- 153.39. The fines imposed were $582.50; recorder's cost, $106.95; clerk's cost. $202.96; officers cost, $234.38, and jail fees, $26.60. , It is evident from these figures that the recorder's court is working a great saving in the cost of adminis tering justice in Durham county. The term of court that has just come to j an end nere, nas naa more cases man it could handle, many of them hav ing to bo continued over to tho next term. If it had not been for the re corder's court which sifted the less- Important cases from the docket be fore court convened, Judge Lyon, at this term of court, would hardly have had time to dispose of the Jail cases alone. ".'- ' City Schools Open. A large attendance marked the opening of the city schools today, ai-l tnough the large registration Is not expected till tomorrow. A typograph ical error in the admission blank which stated that the day of opening would be September 6, instead of September 5, as It should have been stated, undoubtedly kept many away. However, considering the fact that the. school census this year showed but a slight increase In number over that' of last year the school authori ties are entirely satisfied with the en rollment for the first day. The en rollment for the different schools yes terday were: Morehcad, 4 63; North Durham, 211; 4 Fuller, 322; Kdge- mont, 2S4; High School, 124, The county schools in three of the townships opened esterday morning under what Superintendent Massey considers the brightest prospects.

Condra, president of the Min nesota conservation organization, read the proposed constitution ap proved in a meeting of the state dele gates Monday. The constitution was adopted with a roar of ayes. John Barrett, head of the Bureau of American Republics addressed the congress briefly in advance of Mr. Roosevelt's arrival. Suddenly, without the slightest warning, the vast multitude broke into wild yells for Governor Stubbs; of Kansas. The popular. Kansan talked briefly and declared himself strongly in favor of federal conserva tion. '; A similar outbreak occurred when James J. Hill mounted the platform. While the audience was still stand ing and cheering vociferously, the ex- president stepped forward and clasp ed the hand of Mr. Hill, greeting him effusively. Rev. Dr. J. S.

The western gover nors were aligning themselves on the proposition of control of the natural resources and Governor Stubbs, Gov ernor Noel, of Mississippi, and Gov ernor Deneen, of Illinois, had stood (Continued on Page Six.)

Cook, in the race for". i'nited States senater. This is predicted by his adherents today. Despite the treatening weather,' the polls were crowded early and a heavy vote is being cast, The fight between Burt Wiliams and Congressman C. H. Weisse, for the democratic support in the race for senator is in doubt. E. F. McGovern, a LaFollette man, is in the lead for the gubernatorial nomination, so far as politicians are able to judge. E. T. Fairchild, a Taft republican, is his strongest con tender. The proposition to nominate Frank Tucker, who a few days ago killed himself following charges that ne had used postage paid for by the state to mail his campaign literature, has fail ed. The absurdity of voting for a dead man for any place on the ticket stopped this proposal. William L. Lewis, the Racine mil lionaire, who also is a candidate for governor, is said to have spent $100,- 000 in his campaign.
