GIRL TEsTIFIEs AGAINST PRIEST
Lena Black Says Fr. Crociata Told Her
to Let Santoro Follow Her.

Rutland, Nov. 11.--Lena Black, the
17-yearold girl, was on the stand the
greater part Of yesterday in the trial
OF the Rev. Francis Crociata, the priest,
who is accused of completely in the
murder of Accorito Santoro. The girl
seemed nervous, and was often at loss
TO understand the questions.
She said FIR. Crociata told her that
she must go out with Giovanni Giola
at night and let Ssntoro, VINO was
paying her attention, follow them to
the old 18th bridge, where the other
men, two of whom are now serving
sentences for the murder were to strip
Sanford and shame him so chat nc
would molest the girl no longer.
The priest told her, she said, that Il
would not only be right but an honor
for her to go, because Santoro was
running her character After Santoro
had resisted the attempts of his as
sailsnts to strip him and was killed in
the struggle, the girl said the priest
cautioned her to say nothing OF what
had occurred.
On ross-examination by f. II.
0Brien, attorney for Fr. Crociata, the
girl admitted that she would never
have told the story of the murder TO
the authorities if she had not been
placed in solitary confinement at the
house Of correction and been told by
the matron that she would never be let
out until she had disclosed all. The
witness denied, however, that she ever
told Mr.. 0'Brien that she was kept on
bread and water and told she would
stay in the cell until she 'rotted" if
she did not confess.

attack. They demanded some sort of a
pledge from the kaiser that he would
refrain from giving out an interview
in the future without first submitting
his remarks to his ministers and for
eign officers. They declared that other
wise Germany would eventually become
involved in a war.
