Minnesota FARE
WILL Be 3 CENTS
After July / Go Back to What
They Were Before the
Reform

Duluth. Minn., May 5.-Passenger
fares generally in Minnesota will be
three cents mile on and after July
this year. according to information
obtained here today. On that date
also, class freight rates will be re-
stored to the basis existing before
the order Of the railroad and ware
house commission on Sept, 6, 1905,
which Is twenty to twenty-five per
cent higher than the rates that have
been in effect since that order was
made.
Some of the roads have already is
sued orders providing for the rate
advances and others are expected to
follow shortly. Although all of the
big carriers are expected to take ad-
vantage of the privilege of raising
rates given them by Judge Sanborn's 8
decision in the Great Northern, North
ern Pacific and Minneapolis and st.
Louis cases and his denial Of the petit
tion of the state for stay Of execu-
ton pending appeal to the United
States supreme court, there is more
than a possibility that the two range
railroads will be the only exception
to the rule raising rates to the 1906
basis.

Details Of the Murder For Which
Camorrists Are Now on Trial.

viterbo. May 5-Marino DeGennar-
ro. who it is alleged was the first to
attack Gennero Cuoccolo, stabbing
MIN with a dagger. was given a
chance today to confront his accusser,
Gennaro Abbatemaggio. AS the ac-
'cuser and the accused stood before
the judges bench today Abbatemaggio
rectted what he affirms was the part
played by DeGennaro in the tragedy
at Torro Del Greco on the evening
or June 8, 1906. He said in substance:
DeGennaro was armed with a dag
ger and also carried in his pocket a
kitchen knife which had been surren-
tlously from the Cuoccolo' home"
This knife was later placed in the
right hand of the dead man to give
the impression to those who might
discover the body, that Cuoccolo had
Deen slain In duel. When the as
sassins, accompanied by the unsus-
pecttng Cuoccolo reached the spot Sc
lected for the murder, DeGennaro
suddenly drew his dagger and stab
bed the victim. Cuoccolo attempted
to defend himself with q pocket knife
and wounded Corrador Sortioone on
the hand. but he was -oon overpower-
ed. N1cholo Nora also stabbed him
and Antonio Cerrato struck him over
the head with his cane. When Cuoc-
colo ceased breathing DeGennaro
placed the kitchen knife in his hand
while the others took the ring from
his finger and from the pocket the
latohkey to his apartments. Gennaro
denied the entire story. ...s.
