Murdered Princess for Money.

Rome, April II THE crown prose
cutor has drawn up report embodying
the results Of the investigation into
the killing of Princess Giulia Trigona
di SAINT Ella, lady-in waiting to Queen
Helena. by Lieutenant Baron Palermo.
The conclusion of the prosecutor is
that Palermo is guilty Of premeditated
homicide He dismisses the defense,
based on Paternos assertion that he
committed the crime because of ieal-
ousy in the belief that the princess
was about to leave him for another
friend, Signor Serrao. This plea the
crown prosecutor considers absurd, as
on the eve of the crime Palermo wrote
to Serrao in very cordial terms with
reference to the princess, The prose-
cutor argues that instead the crime
was due to the decision of Princess
Trigona to abandon Palermo and the
fact that Palermo was angered at
losing $4,000 which he expected to re-
ceive from her to pay his most ur-
gent debts. Finally, the prosecutor
doubts the sincerity of the attempt of
Palermo to commit suicide, expressing
the belief that he wounded himself
merely to influence public opinion.
