The Mysterious Murder Of II Beautiful
Young Indy.

A case In now under examination In
the court Mt Naples which IL exciting
unusual interest in the whole Of Italy,
More than year and n half ago there
was found, at the railway station In
Rome, u trunk containing dead body
of Il woman. The trunk had been for
wnrded week or more before from
Naples TO the address OF. an unknown
person, to be kept until called for, 1t
was broken open 10y the officials, when
stencil which II emitted awakened
suspicion that something was wrong.
An investigation was ut once begun at
Naples, and 1t was some time before
any clue to the mystery could be OBJ
tanned. At length evidence was found
TO fix suspicion OF guilt upon certain
actors and train OF circumstances
has brought to light, in the legal pro-
cess, the truth OF the affair. A man Of
the age Of fifty, by the name OF Saliva
tore Danicle, IL accused of the murder
of the girl, Guiseppina Ga22ara by
name, of the age Of seventeen, snd the
packing of the body IN the mutlated
condition ia the trunk in which it WAS
found. Danlele, under the title of
uncle, had taken the girl to live with
him at Portici, u few miles from Ma
Piles. Guiseppina had had relations, n
little while before, with priest named
Palazze n man of middle age, who had
come back from South America with
certain amount of accumulated
means. The priest was robbed of values
amounting to several thousand francs,
and the theft was traced to Guiseppina
and the house of the so-called uncle.
The girl soon afterward disappeared,
and no trace was found until the body
turued up in the trunk. The fact Of
cutting up and packing is confessed by
the man Daniele, who declares that
death was caused by n natural cause,
and that, as it happened in his house,
after the robbery of the priest, he had
set afloat the report the girl had fled
to some other town to save himself
from the charge of completely in the
theft.
