MAY YET DANISH WAR

London, March 2o.-At a great meet
ing OF churchmen and statesmen In
Albert Hall this evening to celebrate
the tercentenary OF the revision Of the
English translation OF the Bible by n
commission which completed the So
called King James version in 1911, Pre-
Inier Asquith and WhiteIaw Reid, the
American ambassador, who were the
principal speakers. seized the oppor-
tunity to eulogize the arbitration
movement.

ceedings, and when the Prime Minis

the whole E.ngltsh-speaking world. One
OF the truths which has been slowly
realized, and which now believ, is
firmly rooted in the faith of Christian

Strictly speaking, AbbateragEio's

published before the trial began. In

told how Cuoccolo had been murdered

to-day recalled incidents OF the crime
not included in his written confession.
Asked about the $500 which had been
paid to the assasins OF the CuoccoIos.
the informer replied that Alfano had
divided the money. giving $50 to the
~ iputinS the remainder
among the actual assassins. Ferdi-
nando di NIatteo. one OF the assassins,
protested against the giving of so
large n share to Abbatemaggio. who
had not participated In the Killings,
but he was silenced with q wink from
AlIano. Abbatemaggio saw the wink
and understood its meaning.
Knew Their Secrets.
His associates were aware that he
knew too many Of their secrets and
could betray them at any moment. Ac-
cordingly no sum of money was too
great to pay for his silence until the
opportunity came to put him out of
the way as they had disposed of
Cuoccolo.
Abbatemaggio realized the feeling
toward him, and this. together with a
revival of honest impulses, induced
him to make the first revelations,
which were followed by a determine
tion to tell ali and so redeem himself.
Abbatemaggio's examination was In
terrupted to-day by Corrado Sortino,
one OF those alleged to have killed the
Cuoccolos. who asserted that the in
former had declared that Cortino's
brother was a member Of the Comorra.
Rising from his scat IN the prisoners
