THE CRIPPEN SENSATION.
IS BELLE ELMORE DEAD i Npw York, Nov. 9. More people are coming forward with the declaration that Belle Elmore, the professional name by which Crippen’s wife was known, is still alive. On top of the announcement of a Philadelphia lawyer that he has received letters from persons who have seen Mrs Crippen comes thac of a Chicago attorney, who asserts that he has strong proofs that the woman is alive. Another Chicago man, a wrestling promoter, also avers that Belle Elmore is still in the flesh. Then there is the wife of a millionaire at Hammond, Indiana, who has handed the local police a note which was picked up in a hotel, and which purports to give Belle Elmore’s address. The State Department iu Washington uoes not contemplate taking any action regai ding these reports. Even if any affidavits are sworn and forwarded to the department, they will be referred to either the British Embassy or the English Consul iu Philadelphia, as the case is considered to be solely within the jurisdiction of the criminal courts in England.
