Confessed A Terrible Plot.

LKEsBARRE, PA, March 27.-A
strange story comes To light today in
connection with the case of Adam
Volkavitch. who will be executed
here on Tuesday Of next week for
tie murder of Stanis!aus Bloski
Volkavitch, after arrest, confessed
the killing, but said Bioski, who was
a former lover of his wife, attacked
him with knife and he killed him
in self-defense.
On Sunday his wife visited him in
Jail and today Volkayitch related a
startling confession which she had
made to him. She loved Bioski and
at his suggestion entered into de-
liberate plan for the murder of her
husband. Bioski was to announce
his intention to visit Pittston and
was to induce Volkavitch to accom-
pany him on foot to that town. AT
some lonely spot Bioski was to quar-
rel with him with knife. Every de-
tail of his fiendish program, except
the closing act, was carried out, and
but that Volkavitch was armed and
used his weapon it would have been
his body instead Of BioskPs that
would have been found there the next
morning. Mrs. Volkavltch stated
two other living persons know OF
this plot-Joseph Fisher and Micha-
elIna Androsy kwick.
This story, if it could have been
legally substantiated, it would doubt
less have had much weight with
the Pardon Board, but as it was the
board refused thee application for a
hearing of the case at their meeting
last week.

seen that action is being taken TO set
