ITALIAN MELODRAMA.
Camorrist Trial Is Adjourned Until
After Easter.

Viterbo, April 11.-Today's session
of the Camorrist trial was occupied
throughout with the cross examina-
ton of Giacomo Ascrittore, at the con-
clusion of which an adjournment was
taken until after Easter
Ascrittore denounced Tommasso de
Angels and Gaetano Amedeo as the
murderers of Gennaro Cuoccolo and
his wife, in order. the state alleges to
shield the real assassins. For two
days the prisoner had been trying to
convince the jury that he acted in
good faith and was not in a conspir-
acy with the priest Giro Vitozzi, who
told the authorities that he had
learned in the confessional of the guilt
of the two men.
Today Ascrittore insisted that he
still believed De Angels and Amedo
took part in the killing of the Cuoc-
colos and he posed as martyr to the
Vaccinations of the cara bineers and
stance:
During the investigation of the
murders I was forced to withdraw
my evidence against De Angels and
Amedeo. The carabineers and the
judges prosecuted me for calumny
and kept me in jail for nearly four
years. Thus they made martyr
not only of me but of my poor moth
er. who in the eighty-third year of her
life is crying her eyes out
Ascrittore's reference to his mother
drew chorus of walls from the pris-
oner's pen while his accusations
against De Angels and Amedeo pro-
voked counter demonstration from
the friends of the latter. The day was
quite as fruitful of melodrama as
have been earlier SitingS

LOST AT WORLDS FAIR.
Heiress to an Estate Has Never Been
Heard of Since.

Washington, April 1.-THE monot-
onous succession of one dry legal ques-
ton after another was varied today in
the supreme court of the United States
when the justices gave their attention
to the story of Boston nurse girl, lost
in the city of Chicago during the
worlds fair and who has never been
heard from since. A modest fortune
awaits her return but because of her
long absence, relatives claim it should
be divided among them The girl was
Miss Mabel Allen. Her mother and
her father died leaving her the last
of her family. About the time of the
worlds fair in Chicago she called one
day on cousin. George Nelson of
West Pullman, Illinois. From that
day to this neither relatives, nor
friends have heard from her. In 1899
she became entitled as heir at-law I'M
der the will of Jonathan Merry, who
died in Boston in 1928 to portion
of $4,000 paid to the Merry estate by
the government in settlement of a
French spoliation claim. Under a
statute in Massachusetts five cousins,
George Nelson Robert J. Fisher of
Chicago; Emma f. Thomas of Man
