Blood Stained Razor Found

The state came into possession of n most important piece of evidence last Monday when n razor, the blade Of which was covered with what are be- lieved te be blood stsins, and the ham dle inscribed with the name, x. Dana lo, the name of the man in Brooklyn Jail awaiting trial for the murder of Angelic Ramella, who, on hts death bed, accused Damnto of being his as- sailant, was found within g feet of where the crime was committed.
 Ramela was murdered about : o'clock on the evening of October 20th, on Elm street.: just north of the resi- dence of John Gahan, and opposite n priv lie way leading eastward To an Italian boarding house. Ramela's throat was cut and IL was believed the instrument used was raxor. The wounded man was taken to the Day kimhall hospital and died two days later. Before he died Ssbantio Dama- to WAS taken to his bedside and identi- fled by Ramella as the man who cut him. There was search for the razor, but without success. Last Sunday morning as Earl Gahan, aged 10, was returning from church, he saw some thing lying In the grass near the front door of his home and picked 1t up. IL was the rakor bearing Damato's name. He took 1t Into the house and hts par ents, realizing the importance Of the find. turned il over to the police. The spot where the razor was picked up on the lawn of the Gahan home is about D feet from where the cutting look place, and the only wonder k that it was not found sooner. The only ex- pianation of this k that Il was partly buried in the grass as though il had been trampled upon hy the searehefs on Inc night of the crime.
 When acquainted with the fact that razor had been found bearing hts name, namato maintained his denial of ever having possessed razor since he has been in ratnam.
 Four Italians wefc committed le Jail Monday as witnesses in the case as 1t was feared they wep about 10 lea>e the state. They will have 10 remain there for nearly Two months AS the trial has been adjourned to the first Tuesday in January.
