AM0RE, MISSING
WITNESS, SAID TO
Be. IN NEWARK
Expected to Make His Presence
Known, Now that Wife
Is Free.

In the vicinity of is Drift street,
where Mrs. Josephine Amore, who was
last week acquitted of the murder of
the man who wanted her to elope with
him, Michael Martslla- las beer since
living with her tenants, 1t is rumored
that Carmine Amore, her husband, who
disappeared shortly before her trial
while he vas under $1,000 bonds. may
be expected to show himself soon.
Mrs Amore said today that from sew
eral sources she had heard that her
husband had been seen. A barber liv-
ing near there said he had seen Amore
three hours after the acquittal of his
wife. Others said they had seen and
spoken to Amore In Madison and in
Franklin.
The apartment occupied by the
Amore family in the tenement they
owned, at 16 Drift street, has not been
opened since the night Mrs. Amore
shot and killed Martella there on Au-
gust Is last. Since being released from
custody Mrs. Amore has obtained her
children from the relatives and others
who had cared for them during her in
generation, but instead Of living in her
former home she has lived with the
other families in the building. She
said today that as soon as her hus-
band returned she would open her own
apartment.
The police suspected that Mrs. Amore
was not telling the truth in her on
fessfon n they arrested Amore.
Later he was released under Sc, 900 bail
and a week before his wife's trial was
called he disappeared. At that time
there was some talk of a possible sui
eide, especially as it was known that
the prosecutor would place in evidence
passionate love letters which Amore's
wife had exchanged with the man she
killed,

HAMS A NERVOUS
WRECK M|NTYRE
ENDS PLEA TODAY
Defendant Passes Sleepless
Nights, and Sits GloomiIy
in Court.

FLUSHING, n. Y, Jan. 13.-The clos
ing address of the defense to the jury
in the trial of Thornton Jenkins Hams
was esumed today by John r. Nc
Intyre, who, after speaking all day yes
terday. was given until noon today in
which to conclude. Refreshed by a
nights rest. MI. Mcintyre skilfully
yarrayed all the evidence tending to
prove his client guiltless. The throngs
that yesterday filed the court room
were early in their places today.
That Thornton Hams is verging upon
a breakdown as his trial nears
its end is apparent to counsel M
spectators. His lawyers say he passes
sleepless nights in his cell, and once or
twice he has had spells of sickness in
court. The prisoners face, when the
trial opened a month ago, was full and
his four months incarceration in jail
had not lessened his high color. Today
his face is tense and haggard.
Hains's manner also has changed.
Instead of the cheerful prisoner that
sat by his counsels side chatting and
smiling over the testimony early in the
case. Hams today curled up in his chair
and listened gloomily to the proceed
ings.
The opening of the trial was delayed
today and for a time il was thought
the case might have to be postponed
because of an accident to Thomas
Walsh, a juryman, who was knocked
off a Lexington avenue car last night.
Walsh was taken to the Presbyterian
Hospital. where twelve stitches We're
taken in a scalp wound The juror suf-
fered abrasions on the face n his
left eye was hurt, Before court opened
Mr.. Walsh went to the Flushing Hos
pital. where his injuries were again
dressed.
