CAMORRISTS TRIAL
HALTS FOR EASTER
Ascrittore Renounces Men
as Real Murderers.

Viterbo, April 1.-THE fears OF the
Camorrists that they would be unable to
attend to their religious duties during
Holy Week with the proper devotion were
quieted at the close of this afternoons
session of the trial, when President Bian-
chi adjourned court until after Easter.
This adjournment was expected last Fri
day, and when the court ordered the trial
to proceed to-day there were loud LAM
entations in the prisoners cage.
To-days session developed situations
but little less sensational than those
which marked the Interrogation of En-

and Angels, but the carbineers and
Judges had prosecuted him for calumny
and kept him in jail for years, besides
forcing him to withdraw his testimony
against Amadeo and de Angels.
The Camorrists were less vociferous in
their demonstrations to-day, but more
given to wailing and weeping. When
Ascrittore declared the judges had made
a martyr of his aged mother. as well
as himself. the prisoner. including Erri-
