LONDON, April ls.-Referring to the

discuss the question why the Italian
murder returns exceed those of every
other nation on earth. The st. James
Gazette. quoting Rosco's statistics on
homicide, shows that Italians are eight
times more murderous than other Eu-
ropeans; that in Italy ten persons are
tried every day for murder and eight
are convicted. while host of homicides
are never recorded. The Italian at
home, it says, is worse than the Italian
abroad. The conclusion is that the
Italian has murder in his blood and that
racial excitability IL heightened by a
warm climate and the national habit OF
