tai remains of q vicloas life of to some
distant station or city as merchandise:
1t Is peculiarly murder on the European
plan, and there have been several late
rank examples. One was IN London.
1t was called the white chapel Road
m%urder," and q Sunday-schoo teacher
named wainwright got INTO trouble about
it as the principal ofa deep scheme of
murder and ~concealment. We noticed
this case at the time it was making a
odor and a novel sensation in London
police circles. aH s. jHrf'-
We noticed also soon after a parallel
case ip Italy which scanned to be cloud,
ed in impenitrahle obsurity. "A sealed
trunk had been seat from Naples Rome
which being unclaimed, was stored
away in n store room and became bur
led up under a pile of packages of ap-
paraptly the same character. But in
time the store room began to tell tales
and trunk above mentioned was rooted
out and opened. 1t contained the de.
composing body Of a woman 26 or %
years of age, minus the intestlnes,
which had been carefully and sclcntifi-
qally extracted. The. body was filed
with oakum and salt, and a quantity of
salt had been strcwn over it. The
woman Lad been slightly deformed (;
one shoulder was higher than the other.
The upper teeth were prominent and
prctruding, and one Of them was
broken. The package was addressed
by Francisco Buono, of Naples, to
Francisco Buono, of Rene.
THIS was all the data the police had
by which to trace up the trunk and it's
contents. Their first effort was to find
out who had missed q h~umpbacked
woman who had lost one of q promi-
neat set of front upper teeth. Buono
is a common name, in Italy, and they
arrested all the Buonos they could find
Upon examination they let them all go.
That was, not the way to get at it
Several medical STUDENT were also ar
rested, because the surgical operation
upon tba body indicated q practised
hand. They, too, were all turned loose
again. There seemed to be no way to
the identity of the woman, or the mans
ner of her taking of.
At length the noise over the case
rcathed the ears Of an old woman in
Naples, called Marina Gazzara. Her
daughter had wandered away from her
five years before, and she had not seen
her since. She had the peculiarities of
shoulders and teeth ascribed to the
hcorpse, The old woman told the pc
lice, and she got a ride to Rome to
look at the corpse. They confirmed
the old woman's identification.
Then an officer of the police went to
work to trace the life Of the girl from
the time she left her mothers house to
the probable tragic end of it. He fol-
lowed her course almost step by step
into the keeping OF several monks and
priests, and a number Of assumed
names, until at last he arrived at the
door of the last house Guiseppina
had lived IN at Acerra The door was
locked it was forced open, and there
was the woman's scanty furniture and
other effects just as she had left them.
In a pile of rubbish in one corner OF
the room, several shreds of torn up
letters were found. Some of these
were put together by dint of detective
perseverance and read. One of them
disclosed the name Of Salvatore DAM.
Gle, together with the address. ,,g-
A young girl of the ,neighborhood
was found who knew the woman who
had lived there, and asserted she used
to be visited by a nan whom she said
was her uncle. She knew the mar
we'll by sight. The girl was sent tt
Rome. In q short time Salvatore Dani
ele was found, arrested and taken to
Rome. And now all the broken thread:
of the case seemed to be gathered nt
were to be tied together in Rome
They were, beyond question, the corps,
Of awoman who had last lived in tina
house in Acerra; her presumed uncl,
visitor who sometimes stayed ,seyera
days in her house, and the young cir
who knew the woman and had seen he
frequent visitor several times. TIL,
only question to be decided was wheth
err Danitle was This visitor. The cir
was in the questor's Office. Daniel'
