CANORRA'S REIGN ENDED.

Its Power Gone, No Matter What the
Outcome Of Viterbo Trial.
Five months have passed since the
Camorra trial at Viterbo, Italy, began
and it can scarcely be said that the
court is half done with this case, which
has no precedent, at least in Italy.
The Cuoccolo murder case is one OF
the painful but healthy steps which
Italy is taking to cancel the last rem
nants Of corruption inherited from the
ancient regimes and install the reig1,
of morality.
The work to accomplish is still hard
and long, as is proved at every days
sitting here, where the power of the
Camorra is still demonstrated chiefly
through the difficulty Of collecting evi,
dence and the reticence- Of the witness
es, but no one has dared to touch Cap.
tain Fabbroni and Privates Capezzuti
and Farris, the heroes of the bitter
struggle against the association, who
in other times might have lost their
lives, and no one has threatened either
the premier or the minister of justice
for not stopping the trial.
The trial as It now stands, although
it will go on for several months more
holds no surprises. All that could be
said on either side has been said, and
the predictions made are that, while
there are ample proofs to condemn all
the accused for the special crime
which in the Italian code is called
*'criminal association" there is not
positive and indisputable evidence tc
convict those accused of instigatine
the murder Or of having actually com
mitted it unless the jury considers the
circumstantial evidence good, of which
there is plenty. For the crime of be
ing a member of a criminal association
the penalty goes from one to twelve
years in prison, while fer murder ther.
| is life sentence.
The CamOrra as a whole, however
Is wounded to death, as its sole exist
ence so far depended Oh the protec
ton Of those in high places who wer
afraid Of not being protected by th
Camorrists, and after this it will b.
hard to find a candidate for any pub
lie Office who will consider it an ad
vantage to be supported by Camorrists

Badger was Wealthy and Had Been
Flying Only Short Time.
With the death Of st. Croix john
stone and William r. Badger at Chi
cago the total number who have fallen
to death since the aeroplane has been
used by man grows to sixty-eieht.
UT this number nine met their end in
the United States.
Chicago was st. Croix Johnstone's
home. He was the son of DR.. Stuart
Johnstone of that city and was born
there He became well known as a
motorcyclist. Last winter he became
interested in aviation and went to the
Bleriot aviation school in England
where he learned to fly. He returned
to this country last March and went
to Montreal, where he bought an aero
plane that had been left there by
Count de Lesseps, the famous French
aviator.

William Ralph Badger was we'll
known in Pittsburg, where he had
lived for most of his life He was a
handsome young man Of twenty-five
years, with golden head Of hair. His
father, who was a rich oil man, died
when the aviator was a child. His
mother later was married to John
Goettman, Pittsburg's wealthy restau-
rateur and real estate owner.
When he became of age Badger fell
heir to a portion Of his fathers estate,
valued at about $4,000. His mother
died a year ago, and this left him an
other fortune. Badger was an air
faddist, he said, half because of scien-
tiic interest and half for the very ad-
venture of it.
Badger was always an enthusiast
about all sports. For number Of
years he drove a fast automobile.
While attending an aviation meet in
Pittsburg last summer he became in
terested in the art of flying. He was
unmarried.
