intervene before sentence can be
pronounced to the full satisfaction OF
the ecclesiastical authorities of such
conformity on his part.

GAPON WAS MURDERED.
The Priests Lawyer Positively iden-
titles the Body.

ST. Petersburg. May 15.-At the
inquest on the body of Father Gapon,
which was found May Is in an upper
chamber of lonely villa in sum-
mer suburb of Ozerki. Finland, M.
Margolin, formerly the Priests law
yer, positively identified the body.
The autopsy showed that he had re-
ceived a blow on the head, and the
theory is that the revolutionists were
listening in an adjoining room and
heard Father Gapon betray his con-
nection with the government, and
that Putenderg, the terrorist leader
who is said 10 have lured Father Ca
pom to his death, rushed in, felled
him to the floor and afterwards hang
ed him.
