TRY CAMORR|ST
 WHO CONFESSED Questioning Abbatemaggio, Who Disclosed CamOrra
 to the Police

Viterbo, Italy, March 24.-The mos, sensational session of the trial of the Camorists who are charged with the murder of Gennaro Cuoccolo and his wife. took place today when Gennaro Abbatemaggio, the ex-member of the murderous gang, who turned states evidence against his former brothers in crime took the stand. The court room was crowded.
 Abbatemaggio, as he was inter- rogated, stood outside his cage erect as though challenging the world. He spoke aloud throughout and endeavored to give strength to his arguments with dramatic gestures. He described the Organization of the Camorra, it's do- | ings, it's plans and modes of working. He said he knew everything concern ling the organization because he was | it's most active member until 1907 and participated in all it's daring enter prises.
 The witness enumerated thefts he | had committed with Luiga Arena, who | sat in the big cage with the o6fr prisoners g1aring at him and bitinsfHs | Giovanni Rapi, treasurer of the Camor- ra, was made receiver of their stolen goods.
 When he reached the climax of his testimony, Abbatemaggio summarized the Camorra by saying;
 Tt Is a filthy association" 1 Abbatemaggio said that a year after lhe began his criminal career he was promoted to be a Camorrist--a pro- motion which some times required years to attain. Then he added: l q was very proud then, just as proud as I now am ashamed. I am glad to be in prison, for I desire tc expiate all the evil I have done" 1 At the next sitting of the court on Tuesday, Abbatemaggio will give the entire history of the Cuoccolo murder and is expected to verify his assertions as to the culpabality of those accused | of the crime.
 l Throughout his testimony today Alb. lbatemaggio bore himself in a dignified manner. He was thoroughly absorb | ed with his mission as informer, anC as he re-entered his cage at the con- clusion of the sitting he bowed to tho jury as though he was ascending throne.
 Abbatemaggio is fast becoming thu most conspicuous figure in the trial. Ht
 has been openly threatened with deatf sc many times that he appears to hav' nothing to lose now whether he holds tt his confession or repudiates it. His
 very indifference, however, is being uset to bolster up the claim that he is mental ly irresponsible and has imagined th'
 story which he tells.
 Should this defense be established i
 would be of great importance 10 tht
 prisoners, and its effect ultimately or the case cannot be safely predicted How
 ever, the state claims to have gathered
 sufficient evidence to prove the trutf of the mans assertions, even should hi: testimony be declared incompetent.

LA COLORADO WAS NOT
 Az. FEDERAL VICTORY

Nogales, Sonora, Mex, March 24.- CVia Nogales, Ariz)-That the battle of Wednesday at La Colorado cannot be considered a federal victory is the statement of an American who re- turned today from the south.
 Other passengers arriving here over the Sonora railroad say that the of ficial Mexican representation is not borne out by facts. Details, however, are lacking at this time.
 According to the American, the rebels were entrenched on hill when the federals attempted to climb it. They were met with volleys that wrought fearful execution. The federals there upon retreated but continued firing from long range. After losing several soldiers the federals retreated and the rebels are said to have abandoned their position on the hill.

Anglo American Arbitration

The report that MT Taft was sound
 ing the Senate committee on foreign re- lations as to the possibility of passing an unlimited treaty of arbitration with Great Britain was received throughout England with the liveliest interest and satisfaction. Perhaps no speech that the President has delivered attracted more attention in Europe than his address, last December to the American So- ciety for the Judicial Settlement of International Disputes. A treaty such as he has outlined Is felt by all Eng lishmen to be treaty worth having. It is regarded as the equivalent in the sphere of statesmanship of that moving and magnificent donation to the cause of international peace with which MT. Carnegie recently stirred the whole world. The English people have long set upon Anglo American friendsnp value that can scarcely be exagger- ated. They believe, and rightly believe that the relations between the two countries are one of the determining factors not only in International pol itics, but in the progress of civilization. They have, perhaps, a more vivid and constant sense than Americans can yet be said to have reached of all that Anglo o-American cooperation and brotherhood means and should mean They have long regarded the idea of a conflict with the United States as a moral impossibility, as something akin to the fratricidal agony of a civil war. The difficulties in the way of a comprehensive Anglo American arbi- tration treaty have never come from Whitehall or the house of commons or the British people. The British govern ment agreed to the Olney- -Panchefote treaty of 1897, to the -Lansdowne treaty of 1904, and to the Root-Bryce treaty of 1908; and if any further ad- vance is possible, the foreign office will be as ready in the future as it has been in the past to march step by step with the state department and the Senate.

A Story of kipling

Most of the stories told about John Lockwood kipling were thought worth while simply because they brought in some alluson to his son.
 We recall one which concerns a sea voyage made by the elder Kipling and Rudyard when the latter was an active and somewhat mischievous youngster, One calm day when the vessel was in midocean one of the ships officers rushed into the mems smoking room with an agltated countenance.
 MT. kipling," he said. your son is hanging head downward from the end of the bowsprt. Indeed. was the calm reply. But continued the officer, If he lets go he will be drowned" Don't alarm yourself" said MT. Kiping, The won't, let go.'
