VOSPER’S DISAPPEARANCE
NOT YET FULLY EXPLAINED MJSS OXFORD'S STORY GIVEN CREDENCE Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, March 8. “ I am convinced that Miss Oxford told the whole truth,” said Mr W. L. Pengelly, Vesper’s solicitor and executor. “Her full diary of the voyage dose not mention meeting Vosper and Willes, satisfying me that they only met on the night of the tragedy._ I believe Vosper felt ill after drinking champagne, probably after whisky, and fell when leaning far from a window to get air. There was no question of jealousy.” POLICE ACTIVITIES LONDON, March 9. (Received March 10, at 1.5 p.xn.) The judicial inquiry into the disappearance of Mr Vosper opened at Lo Havre. In the meantime the police examined the cabin occupied by Miss Oxford, and decided that the window was too small to permit anyone to fall out accidentally. They are now 1 inquiring about the £4,000 which Mr Vosper earned at Hollywood, which it is reported, he took_ aboard with him. The police are anxious to determine whether the money was in his pocket when he went overboard.
