DIR. cUNEo IS NoN-CoMM1TrAL.
italian Consul Inclined to Doubt
Commences of Confession.


Denver. Colo. Feb. l6.-Dr. CuneO
expressed himself last night as TO the
genuineness of the confession of
Strange. He first learned of the re-
ported confession from a Herald re-
porter. who asked if he had received
any word of the confession. DR.. Cuneo
said ne did not think II was likely that
Strange would confess to having COM
mitted the crime for which Paguinl
or King. was convicted, because
Strange would thereby put his own
neck in the moose.
Have you received any confession,
or have you sent anyone to secure d
cCnfessiOn?' was asked. 10 which Dr.
Cuneo replied: Il cannot answer that
question
DR.. Cuneo said he was making every
effort to have Paguini proven innocent
and said he was confident himself that
the man did not commit the crime for
which he was convicted. In fact, the
Italian consul intimated that he lad
evidence that would establish the mans
innocence.
When asked If the evidence he pos
Sessed would fasten the crime on any
other person. DR.. Ounce said he was
only trying TO clear PaEuini. and would
not attempt TO convict anyone else.
