Schwartz, has charge of newsstand
at one OF the depots. Both were reg

serious charge, preferred by Schwartz.
The arrests came as the direct re-

by Schwartz, his brother and Police
Sergts. Clark and Dornbrook. They
found Kohl and the young woman to-
gether and Saturday warrant was

headquarters protesting volubly and
weeping vigorously. She loudly de-

way her husband had acted toward
her.
The two were led TO police court,
where Kohls chief concern seemed
TO be that he got back TO his bells
and Cymbals in time to crash the
overture. Both waived examination
and were held under $500 bail
This was secured for them and

LOOKS LIKE TRIAL OF
CAMORRISTS WILL FIZZLE
Not More Than Three Convictions
Expected and These May Be
For Short Terms.

VITERBO. April S.-Although the
Camorrists trial will probably drag
on for months, there is already every
indication that it will end in farcical
verdicts.
Court experts who have followed
the proceedings expressed the oplh-
ion today that there will not be to
exceed three convictions and that
these will be for short terms. In
this event the guilty ones will be i'm
mediately released as the imprison-
ment they underwent awaiting trial
would undoubtedly amount 10 more
than the terms OF their sentences.
The opinion prevails in many minds
that. aside from Judge Bianchi, none
OF those connected with the prosecu-
ton has the requisite nerve 10 deal
with the revengeful Camorrists.
The real basis, however, for the
belief that the prisoners will escape
lightly is the influence either OF the
Camorrists themselves or of their
friends in governmental affairs. Many
of those in high places are believed
to be connected with the Camorrists.
4 unique situation promises TO arise
in the probable adjournment OF the
trial on Tuesday until after Easter.
