Dr. Crippen and bit girl typist, Ethel Clara LeSeve,, wanted lor ths murder Crippen's wile, Belle Elmore, tbe former at principal and the latter aa accessory, were arretted on tbe atearoer Montrose it entered tbe St. Lawrence on ita way to Montreal Sunday morning. The Informa tion riven by tbe captain of tbe Montrce by wireleas aa bia abip was leaving; tbe other aide proved to be correct. Crippen and tbe girl bad taken passage aa father and son. be as Rev. John Robinson. The captain watched them closely on tbe way across and as bia ship nee red tbe Canadian shore communicated with tbe officials by wireless. Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard bnrried over by faster sblp and rescued thia aide before tbe Montrose. A plao waa worked out by wireless with the Montroae and Dew went aboard diaguised as a pilot. He recognized Crippen at once. The Utter almost collapsed wben arrested, but thanked Ood that tbe suspense, was over. Tbe girl, st ill dressed aa a boy, went into hysterics. Neither admitted tbe crime. They will be taken back to Lod don at once. This sensational case bai attracted onutual attention because of the Inhuman nature ot tbe crime, tbe sodden diasnnearance of tbe couple, tbe keen search for them and tbe part wireless took in their detection. The whole world knew they were aboard tbe Montrose and that arrest awaited tbem, while tbey hoped their presence waa unknown. On sc- oonnt of tbe condition of tbe reraaini found buried in tbe Crippen cellar, it is not positive that tbey can be identified ai those of tbe former wife, and Dr. Crip- pen's conviction is by no means sure. Spain Breaks With ths Pop. There la a serious rupture between the government of Spain and' tbe Vatican. Spain asked for a conference looking toward a modification ,'of tbe concordat, the arrangement by which tbe Roman Catholic church is established aa tbe atate religion of Spain. The Pope refused, un less tbe government would recall tbe per mission it recently gave the Protewtsntt in Spain to display reliaioua inaignia at tbe placet of worship. This Premier Can alejas, with the authority of King Alfon so, refused to do, and recalled tbe Span ish minister at tbe Vatican. The Vatican representative at Madrid baa been recalled and relations are severed. There la much foment In the country. Tbe clericals are beinff incited to make trouble for tbe gov ernment, and tbe Carlist pretender, Don Jaimle, baa isautd a manifesto to Bia rol lovers that may mean an attempt to gala the throne. For some years past there has been a growing difference between .Spain and Rome. Alfonso, tbe young monarch, haa desired to liberalize tbe country in many respects and to allow rellgioua free dom. Under tbe law Protestant bodies have not been permitted to build churches to look like such, and could not display eigne to the public Tbe monastic orders have beid much of tba property, to an op pressive degree. Tbe same tendency that led France to dissolve the concordat and suppress tbe orders haa made headway In Spain and tbe present Canalejaa ministry is in full sympathy with it and deter-: mined to put the program into effect. Political Events of the Week. Tha Renuhllcana of Otfio nominated War ran (1.

"Mr. Abtott, wbo il a travelling sales man for tbe Vermont Marble company, la a graduate of tbe Univeraity of Ver mont and a member ot the Phi Delta Tbeta fraternity.

Tbe archways and mantelt were banked with masses of green studded itb tiny bearta, and garlands of heerti resebed from cbandeliera to coruers, can opying the rooma.

Tbe suitcase contained the 'shower' and, st it waa a miacellaneoua one, the gifts ranged from china and linen to dainty feminine accessories." No Action on Electrle Llghta. Last evenlng'a adjourned village meet ing took no definite action aa to electric lights, and the aubject ia again put over tor further Investigation. O. J. Marcott for tbecommitte reported varioua opinions aa to tbe loss ot current in transmission from Graniteville to Ran dolph, ranging from 20to21T, and in one case 45 . He submitted tbe third proposition of tbe White River Electric company for tbe aala of ita property to the village for (16,500, and aaid tbe com mittee were unanimously against ita pur chase at that price. Further than tbit the committee were not ready to advise. Managor Kiziell of the Consolidated company launched a torpedo Sgein.it the White River Co, proposition, pointing out tbe discrepancy between eoirjpanv, cap italized at (16,000, trying to aell a plant alleged to cost (22,000 for (18,500 on a 75 batia of original coat.. He said tba cost did not exceed (15,000. He chal lenged the statement that it cost more to construct a plant now than it did when the White River ajstera wat installed, and directed a question calculated to bring thia out to Manager Cuthing of tbe White River Co., wbo waa present. Mr. Cnahing declined to "spat" with bis com petitor, or to answer hit questions, cut waa ready to reply to tba committee or the voters. M. M. Wilson said that many were yet in doubt as to tbe best course, and while be favored a municipal plant if it could tie established 00 a businesslike bams, be moved that tbe committee be empowered to secure further expert and impartial in formation and dvice, using euch fundi aa were necessary, ana tuumii ine same, ita recommendation, at an adjourned meeting. He aaid a party had offered to bear one-balf tha coat of tuch an investi gation. Judge J. W. Roweil and W. R. Sargent favored thia motion, and it was carried. Mr. Kiziell waa again heard and aid be had prepared full estimates of tbe cost of a plant, bamd on actual billt for materiel, that be bad expected to tubmit, but tba action taken forestalled him. He urged the village to carefully consider bia prep osition, and spoke of its favorable features. In answer to a question, be as id bit company would, if deired, dt liver tbe current here instead of Graniteville, but the coot would be proportionately hnjher. He aaid further that bis company would relieve tbe viliatre of rt-ponit ihty for damages along tbe trunk lines. L. H. Brigbam aeked if the Consoli dated did not give any of its customers a rate lower than 5c per k. w. h. .Mr. Kiz iell said it did to large power cuitoaiers, but not for the n it bt lighting load. Mr. u ;... , mvt thattha itiMtins a j T ra.i itself by ballot at to tba different proposi tions, but pending this motion Mr. Vail moved to adjourn until tbe first Wednes day in September, which prevailed. Ibe committee will therefore have tbe expert Investigation made and the report ready, probably, at that time. The Strike Settled. Joyful newa yesterday morning waa to the effect that tbe strike of conductora, trainmen and yardmen, which tegan on tbe ijrand Trunk and Central Vermont syateoia on July 18, waa officially called oft Tueaday nigbt. Under tbe terms of the agreement, aigoed by President Haya for tbe railroadt and all the union officials, tbe men will receive, dating back to May lot tbia year, an advance ot approxi mately 18 per cent, and beginning Janu ary 1, 1912, a raise ot wagee alightly be low tbe eettern association schedule for which they struck, but an advance in many instances of over 30 per cent. Much credit for tbe successful outcome of tbe peace negotiations ia given to W. L. Mackenzie King, the Canadian m in la ter of labor, who baa peraitted in hia efforta to bring the partiee together de spite discouraging setbscks. According to tha text ot the agreement tbe company will put back aa soon as pos sible the ttrikera other then those who bsvs been or may be found guilty ot acts of violence or disorderly conduct, the un derstanding being that there ia to be no coercion or intimidation used towarda the new men. Tbe company will not, however, discharge any of tha men II haa taken on tinea ths strike waa called, nor reduce tbem in rank. Nothing it ststed in tbe agreement in regard to peotion snd ths matter waa not once mentioned dar ing the negotiations. Tbe belief ot the men is that they will be restored to their pension rights. The strikers gain two concessions over tbe terms offered by President Haya on ths afternoon of tbe day tbey struck. First, tbs standardization of pay and rulea with those recently conceded by tbe Canadian Pacific takea place on January 1, 1912, instead of January 1, 1913, at offered by Mr. Haya, a gain of one year. Against thia most be placed tba fact that the Canadian Pacific standard and rules srs not quits tboss of the eastern association, which tbe men demanded from the Grand Trunk, but alightly lower. Secondly, tbe offer made by Mr. Haya to tbe men on July 19 ia accepted, to hold until tbe standardization ia adopted on - January 1, 1912, hut tha Increased rate cf pay made In that offer ia made retroactive. dating from May 1, last. Ths men, there fore, gain two and a half tnontbt of the increase, tbe offer of Mr. Hayt being wben made only effective from date. In tbe case of tha Central Vermont, tbe same aettlement appliea with tha excep tion that tbe standardization to ba applied on January 1, 1912, ia to ba that of the Rutland railway, a road In tba tame ter ritory snd not that ot ths Canadian Pa cific, which will only apply to ths Grand Trunk ayalem. Preaident Garret son of tbe conductora and Preaident Lee of tbe trainmen both declare that tbey srs satisfied with tbs terms ot ths aettlement. Church Notes.
