Viterbo, Italy, June 9.--Cuoci, a bar
Der, was a witness at today's sitting
OF the Camorra trial Gen. Romano,
who conducted the earlier investigation
in the murder of Gennaro Cuoccolo
for which the 36 Camorrists are now
on trial and before whom Cuoci had
testified that he saw among the ring S
by Cuoccolo the one sequestered by
the carabineers following the arrest of
the Camorrists, confronted the wit
ness.
The ring is regarded by the prose-
cution as an important link in con-
Meeting the accused with the murder
of Cuoccolo and his wife.
When Intercepted today Cuoci
wavered as to whether he had seen
the ring. The president of the court
urged the witness to tell the truth and
say who induced him to tell the story
,sof the ring. The witness still hesitat-
ing, he was threatened with prose-
: cution for perjury.
Judge Romano during the dialogue
denied he had the informer, Abbata-
maggie, handcuffed and brought into
the presence of Jacovittf, the coach
man of Enrico Alfano, the alleged head
of the Camorra, for the purpose of
impressing Jacovitti and forcing him to
testify against Alfano.
The statement brought about an ex-
change OF insults between Abbata-
maggie and Alfano, the latter declar-
ing that the scene was purposely and
arranged to intimidate his coachman.
