Aithou-gl England set the exam- p a i regard te box crimes, it le to the Continent one must go for the majority of cases. In Paris, in the. yearI. 83, a bank porter -nain- ed llamâr was poisoned by bis friend Regey. Tûe iieadl was plac- ed ln a box, and throvn in the Seine, toe b. fiabe-d up almoet mi' rnediateiy afterwards by a party of boatmen. In 1850, a well-known dealer in art bronzes, nained Poirier Des- fontaines, an- old ba-cielor, vas nurdered hy0 hie servant, one Vion. Desfontaines' assassin sent the evi- lence of bis crime in a trunk te Chateauroux, "to be ieft tili eall- ed for." There vas ne trace of Vi- on te h. tound, an-d he was onfly capturmed by an ingenious use of tiie publie journale, devised by the celebrated dete-etive Canler. Cani- lr had a paragraph inserted to the edc that al eearcii for the. crizain- û would b. useless, s-eeing that he bad -managed t-e escape into Spain. Believing that the poli(*e md ab-i nadoned pursuit, Vion impru-dentlye b.owed himself in Paris, and wast kpprehended.t A few years later, Victor Dom- f Y imitated Vion's exploit, for he dao deepatched hie victim in a ýrunk, "to be left tii! called for." rhie tinbe the. burden vas sent te ens, and when the , body wasb und suspicion fell upen Domby's riend Calloux, wh-o iad boughtp e wooden case, and had trundlea Lte the. railway station, net kxùow- ag wiiat it oontained.
