Florence, Colo, Jan. 11.-Hundreds
OF school boys, a dozen or more school
girls and scores of Italians from the
surrounding coal mining camps Joined
the authorities this morning In their

victims of Antonio Bavori, the Italian
truck gardener, who is directly charged
with the murder of Joseph Minichiel.
10 and suspected of staying Mrs Frank
Palmetto, Dominick Minichello and
Aerola Ruffatto. Big rewards for the
recovery of any or all of the bodies OF
the supposed victims OF Bavori have
stimulated interest in the search to
the greatest possible degree and IL
the small army of searchers now out
does not develop something important
today. the police and sherifr's office
will begin to feet bit discouraged.
Unless something tangible in the way
of evidence is secured against Bavori,
who is in the county Jail at Canon
City. In the way of finding the bodies
of his alleged victims the case against
him Is bound to fall fat Bayori now
has got his nerve and today is quite

WHEN THE EARL OF

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 11.-After sew
eral years of concealment there came
out today the fact that the earl of
Yarmouth, from whom Lady Alice,
countess of Yarmouth. formerly Alice
Thaw is now asking divorce, was
placed under arrest here a short half
hour before the time set for the we'd
ding on April 27, 1908. The earl was
bodily seized under an old English
debtors law yet In vogue in Penn
sylvania. and he was kept a prisoner
between two constables in fashion
able hotel for two and half hours
while the wedding guests were wait
ing at the church and an English bar
rister raced about trying to raise the
$4,000 which the earl had to pay be-
fore he would be allowed to get away
from the constables and to proceed
with the wedding. The constables.
With their patients about worn out,
were about starting for the Pittsburg
jail with the prisoner when mes
q I.nger arrived with a check from
one of the Thaw family for the needed
N.S4, 500. The constables accepted this
and released the earl.

THAWS
DEFENSE;
AT Last Manufactured
By Counsel And
Experts

New York Jan. 1.-THE exact ma.
ture of Harry K. Thaw's defense was
revealed today after a conference be
tween counsel for the defense and the
experts who have been retained to
testify for Thaw. The jury having
been selected at yesterday afternoon s
session the taking of evidence will be-
gin Monday. 1t has been announced
that the defense will be that Thaw at
the time of the murder was suffering
from a disease known to experts as
'Stuporous Melancholia' and from
which he is now recovered. symptoms
of this disorder are described by DR..
|, Allan McLane Hamilton as failure of
afflicted persons to realize events
transpiring In his or her life or leading
up to the tragedy, but upon the cul-
mination of tragedy the mind is re
awakened and there is possibility OF
cure. This plea already has been en-
tered successfully in murder cases In
the trial of Thomas Harrigan, plumb
er, who slew the traducer of his sister
some years ago the plea resulted in
a verdict of not guilty.
