DE MARINIS DENIES
CUOCCOLO SLAYINGS
Handsome Camorrist Creates
Favorable Impression.

viterbo, April 4-Denials of completely
IN the murder of Gonnaro Cuoccolo and
his wife more sweeping than any made
previously by the Camorrists were Of
fered at the resumption of the trial to-
day by Giuseppe de Marinis. De Marinis
is accused by Abatemaggio of having
planned the details of the murders for
which the Camorrists are being tried. He
declared to-day that he did not know
the Cuoccolos and was in Naples on the
day there were killed.
An event to-day that aroused much in
terest among the members of the Italian
judiciary was the arrival Of Justice
Frank NJ. Laughlin. of the appellate d.
vision of the Supreme Court of New
York. who will attend the further hear
ings as a guest on the bench of President
BianchL He is DESTROYS of studying the
work of the Camorra and Is collecting
information which will be OF use in deal
ing with the black hand cases in New
York city.
De Marinis made a strong impression
or the spectators. He Is one of the most
handsome of Italian types. refined in ap-
pearance and speech. He was attired
fauItlessly to-day, and bore himself with
aristocratic mien. He said his habits
were most aristocratic, IL being, his habit
to frequent fashionable cafes and thea
tiers with the best society of Naples,
and to walk and ride With members of
the nobility. He neglected to tell of the
prison terms he had served for various
crimes. including robbery and assault
He has also been accused Of murder
De Marinis shouted his denials with
great vehemence. Abatemaggio. he
said, had accused him falsely because he
had once discharged the informer from
his employ. Abatemaggio had said
that de Marinis arranged the murder of
Cuoccolo and his wife, in compliance
with a request made by Luigi Arena
while the latter was in prison. The car
bineers claim to have found in de Ma
RIMS house the post card upon which
this request was written. De Marinis
denied that he had ever received such a
post card. He could not recall ever hav-
ing met Arena

TO ST. LOUIS: "kEEP OFF THE
GRASS"

st. Louis steps to the front and de-
mands both national conventions in
1912 The reason she gives for this
modest request is that she has a new
convention hall that will seat 10000
persons. She hopes the delegates to
former conventions in that city will
forget the venerable old firetrap of a
barn in which Parker was nominated
and which served Mckinley and the
populists in former years. There still
dWells in the memory of those who at
tended the democratic convention fl
1904 the SIS and $40 a day they paid
for 81 rooms, the sumptuous So din
ners, which almost rival those served
in Baltimore at 80 cents, and the gem
ial manner in which the Nissourians
separated their visitors from their
money.
Any party that holds it's convention
in St Louis is tempting fate 1t was
there that the republican party split
wide open in 1896; there the popu-
lists found their happy shouting
grounds; there the democrats in 1904
fought all week and nominated the
able but unfortunate Parker Tur-
bulence is in the air of St. Louis. 1t
pours from the tall smokestacks and
rises from the river
If the democrats would nominate
a candidate in 1912 who will unite
all the elements of the party, the place
to hold the convention is in Balti-
more This is the city of the open
door and the glad hand Terrapin, can
vasback duck and Chesapeake oysters
have a soothing effect that puts the
most rabid insurgent in happy mood.
The democrats are not looking for
fighting ground. They want peace
and unity for the good of the party
and the country
Baltimore is the home of harmony
as we'll as the capital of democracy
1t has a great fireproof hall that will
seat $4,000 persons. 1t has plenty
of hotels, where the prices will be
reasonable enough to delight the del
egates, and when they come they viii
find on the table everything on earth
that is good to eat and drink St
Louis can have the republican con-
vention if it wants it and can stand the
gloom But Baltimore gives notice
here and now that the convention that
will pick the winner is going to be
held right here.

THE FEMININE FOOT.

There comes from the head OF a
fashionable school for girls in New
York an announcement which is likely
TO make many pretty agitators of wo-
man suffrage leave off their frantic
spiel of Votes for women" and goI
home to. nurse their tired and aching
pedal extremities
The gist of the announcement Of
Mrs. Jessica French, the educator I'M
question, is that girls have larger feet
than formerly and that feminine feet
ARE growing at the rate of two sizes
in ten years. Alas, alack. If this be
true, then tramping the streets bear
ing suffrage banners will not be likely
to lessen the size Of milady's feet.
1t has long been a subject of COM
ment among visitors to New York that
Eastern girls have pedal extremities
like prize Pereherons, especially as
compared with Southern girls, whose
dainty feet have long been the Trilby
standards of the nation. 1t will pc
la source of qualification among our
feminine readers that the feet refer
red to by Mrs, French were the prop
erty of Eastern women, as she based
her statement on the fact that the
shoe shops of New York and New En-
gland now carry shoes up to size sew
en-, where formerly they carried moth
ing larger than siXes
After all, the Southern girl need not
feel alarmed in this particular She
will doubtless hold her own in the
little foot bridge, just as she has
done since time immemorial. Though
the Eastern girl may not be able 10
boast as dainty feet as her Southern
neighbors, she will be able to rejoice
in what is doubtless a firmer founda-
ton.

THE PASSING OF THE GAME BIRD.

If the slaughter of game birds is
continued at the present rate, there
seems no doubt but that they will be
practically extinct in the course Of a
few more years.
Before the season, as appointed by
ffaw for, the shooting OF quail, was half
over, it was almost impossible for the
average hunter TO get any number of
birds in a days hunt. Sportesmen who
have been hunting birds during as
/ long a period as ten years can testify
to the rapidity with which both quail
and doves have diminished during that
time.
Time and again the matter of the
passage of a better law has come up
before the legislature only to be de-
feated by the careless and inefficien
manner in which it was drawn up Or
! by the machinatiOn of unscrupulous
pot hunters. 1t is time to put qui-
etus upon the pot hunter, who is by no
means a true sportsman, and to
arouse sentiment among the sports
men of the state in some effective
measure for the proper protection OF
our game birds.
Not longer than decade ago, one
might easily go out almost any day
during the main part of the season in
which doves might be shot and bag a
dozen or more doves in short time.
To-day this is an impossibiIity, ex-
cept with a baited field, or in rare in
stances And the reason is not far to
seek. Game has not had adequate pro-
lection in Georgia.
A few years ago the legislature pro-
hibited the pernicious custom of bait
ing fields for doves, but within a short
time the law was repealed OF all the
unsportsmanlike practices, this seems
to be one of the most notorious TO
this custom alone is due the alarming
ly rapid diminution of doves in the
past decade An indefinite prohibition
of this custom by law would be- prob
ably the most effective method of re-
plenishing the supply of doves to such
an extent that the hunting of these
birds could again be made a sport and
not a slaughter.
The entire prohibition of the killing
of quail and doves for period of one
or more seasons suggests itself as the
most logical method of allowing these
game birds to become once more plen-
tiful. lit would seem that the least
that should be done in this particular
is to shorten to a marked extent the
period within which these birds may
be killed.
1t is gratifying to note in this par
ticular that there has been establish
ed in the state an organization for the
protection of game, which will endeaV-
or to frame such a law as will meet
with the approval of majority of the
members of the legislature 1t will be
impossible to prepare a law which viii
satisfy the pot hunter and unscrupul-
GUS sportsman. They are already sat
isfed.
