THE CRIPPEN TRIAL.

[By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.] (Per Press Association."* Received September 17, at 9.45 a.m. j London, September 16. At the Police Court, Dr Willcox, analyst to the Home Office, giving evidence in the Crippen case, stated that hvoscyamine was the case of death. The victim probably lived an hour after it was administered. The fragments of flannelette and the pyjama jacket found buried with the body have an arrangement of green lines identical with the pyjama Urousers found in Ciippen's box. . [The difficulty that the police are encountering is not so much to prove Crippen's~ guilt, as to prove the identity of the body found. For unless identity can be established Crippen cannot be convicted.]
