mot guilty" was the verdict last night OF the
jury which tried Mrs. Rosa di Pietro the
charge of numbering Michael Rago at her home
No. SIG East Thirty-fourth-st., on October g.
The jury celebrated two and a half hours.
Mrs. di Pietro, who understands little English
could see that she was free, and she smiled
broadly. Some OF her friends In the back OF
the courtroom started slight cheer. which Re-
corder Gof subdued sternly. Turning to Dep
uty Sheriff Kelley, who had the woman in
charge the Recorder said:
See that this woman Is taken back to the
Tombs, where she may join her child
This done at once. In the womens prison
at the Tonlbs there much rejoicing among
the prisoners Miss Nan Patterson included
when the woman was released.
Mrs. di Peto asserted that she shot In de-
fence OF her honor.
Assistant District Attorney Train, in sum
ming up yesterday. argued that the defence put
in the plea that Mrs di Pletro was fleeing from,
the man she shot merely as an afterthought.
He contended that the defence's original posi-
ton was that she shot the man while in her
rooms, but when the prosecution showed that
she fired the shots in the street the defence was
changed.
