SAW THE WIFE FRIDAY.

E. w. Belger, who lives just above
the room where Vilardo was butchered,
declared that he had seen Mrs Tortu-
rici around the house on Friday. This
directly contradicts one statement made
by the woman to the police.
Mary Corbella told of a conversation
held with Mrs. Torturici the day after
the murder, when detectives were TAX
ing the bloody shawl from house to
house The wife of the fugitive pro-
fessed to know nothing about the muir
der.
Some men were here with a shawl"
she had said. Il supposed that they
wanted to sell it, but did not care TO
buy"
Detective Coleman visited the Tortu-
rici place on the day after the murder.
Have you missed any lodger?' he
had asked Mrs. Torturici.
Mo- she declared
do you keep any lodger'
NO" she answered emphatically-
The woman was engaged in washing
clothing at the time.
Crispino Vilardo testified that at one
time he also lived with the Torturicis,
but left because Pietro Torturici per-
sisted in an effort to borrow money
from him. The witness had decided to
live apart from Biaggio because of a
misunderstanding. The dead man had
ridiculed him for sending money to
their father in Sicily.
Crispino said that he know Mrs.
Torturicis parents in Sicily and that
they were fine people"
do they belong to the Mafia?" asked
the Coroner.
IT do not know" replied Vilardo.
There is no Malta except in the mind
of Detective Tom Gibson" declared
Spinetti.
The Coroner's notice to all Sheriffs To
arrest Torturici was sent out last night
Foreman Andrews of the Grand
Jury. who has received several letters
regarding the supposed i'll treatment
of Mrs. Torturici, determined to in
vestigate last night by getting the
opinion of the prisoner herself.
With z. J. Bowes and d. II. I,ohsan
two fellow jurors, Foreman Andrews
visited Mrs. Torturici in her cell and
with the aid of an interpreter o1es-
toned her regarding her treatment
since she was taken into custody. Mrs
Torturici expressed her esteem for the

her? You have not the right"
We have no desire to ask her ques-
tions that will be used against her,
retorted Ferarri.
You have already obtained two or
three statements under peculiar cir
cumstances," said Spinetti. Let those
suffice. If you try to force her to tes-
tify she will not be sworn"
You do not know what questions
will be asked" interposed Coroner Le-
land.
"She will not be sworn" asserted
Spinetti
The Coroner took the matter under
advisement until the afternoon, when
he decided that he would not force the
woman to take the stand Although

explained. Il will not force her to tes-
tify. as / believe that she may be tried
