A grcathubbub was caused Intlie suburb by the finding or the corpse. Shortly after the body had been removed te the ttelice station thostieetin front was Jaiimied with vehicles and scoresof poeplo wcie crowd ing for admission te the basement whero lav the doctor's remains.

It was rumored en geed authority this memliisf that an arrest hud been inade of a confederate el Wood ruff, who is bolievcd te have been implica ted in (he murder of Dr. Crenin. The pollce authorities are oxtieinely re ticent about the matter, and would neither iifllrm net teutiudUt the miner. It is also Mated that another arrest will be made to te diry.

" Continuing, Mi. bullivan s.iid he had no theories toadvtmee aste the probable came of the doctor's murder. He did net think that the doctor's premised eKisurn el alleged crookedness In the Irish national organizations had mij thing te de with his murder. Mr..Sttlliv:tu in reply te further questions bald hotieuted with the utmost contempt the statement that certain persons accused him 4sjiillivaui of knowing mere about Crenin's disapiearancu than he cared te till. He considered the statement beneath his notice. "As I hav e already said," con tinued Mr. Sullivan, "lam hernlled te hear of his murder, and will de auj thing and everj tiling in my jewer te help place the guilty parsons wheie thev belong."

He says that the most striking fea ture Is the complete abolition or all tactical movements that are net of practical utility in war.

"Hiding ahead with two field eftlccrs whose duties wcre theso of our insiccter8 of rllle practice, I came In sight or a long line or wrgcts, represent ing artillery and infantry.
