ELOPING COUPLE IDENTIFIED. Reminiscent to an extraordinary degree of the Crippcn ease, minus a murder, is a Paris mystery just solved with the arrival of a liner at Quebec. A -passenger on the s.s. Lake “Manitoba, who passed on board under the name of William F. Wyo, admitted, when detained at Quebec by the immigration officers, that bo was M. Abbadie D’Arrast, of Evroux, Fiance, whose overcoat, gloves, and hat were found on a footbridge over the Seine in Paris recently, with the result that it was at first thought lie had committed filicide. M. L’Arrast also stated that his companion was Mdllo. .Bcnoist, his children’s governess. The pair will he deported as undesirables on separate ships. That they intended eloping for some time past is shown by the fact that their passage was hooked on February 4. Captain Evans, of the Lake Manitoba, had previously received a Marconigram from Paris stating that ■‘Mr. and Mrs. Wyo” were an eloping couple. In connection with the nee of wireless telegraphy, in this case is a somewhat remarkable coincidence that the pilot Gonrdcan, who piloted the steamer Montrose from Farther Point with Crippcn on board, also brought np tlie Lake Manitoba. France has been excited over the case quite as much as London was over Crippcn. M. D’Arrast is one of the loading Catholics in the country, and Lis flight lias come as a great shock to his family, consisting of maclamc and seven young children. Mdllo Bcnoist wrote saying she was leaving for Belfast on a different liner to that on which sho has been found.
