After a Trial Lasting a Year
and a Half One of Most
Famous Criminal Cases Is
Nearing an End.
COURT EXHAUSTED
INSTRUCTlNG JURY
Prisoners, Wan and Tired,
but Still Glover Fiercely
From Iron Cages.-Sold-

(National News Association)


VITERBO. Italy, July S.-After a
long drawn out procedure of a year
and a half the famous Camorrist trial
drew into its final stage today. On the
verge of collapse from his seemingly
endless task, Presiding Judge Bianchi
of the assize court finished his instruc-
tions to the jury and the jury retired
at 10 O'clock
The presiding Judge, as we'll as the
others figuring in the great trial, have
attending the case as we'll as the in
tense heat which has been prevailing
here for several weeks Signor Bianchi
said he had not been able to obtain
any rest for three nights because of
his mental activity and the necessary
concentration of mind in his summing
up. The judge has had to review mil
lions of words of evidence and speech
es. 1t was not considered likely that
the jury would report before night
and perhaps later although this was
problematic. The jurors were instruct
ed to make ia separate findings, bas-
ed upon the multitude of counts in the
indictments against the prisoners.
Scene a Dramatic One.
1t was regarded as possible that the
notorious syndicate of crime in Ma
pies known as the Camorra might be
wiped out because Enrice Alfano alias
"Erricone," the acknowledged head of
the band, was one of the prisoners be
fore the bar, Another was Giovanni
Rapi, alias Prof. Rapi, treasurer of the
band. But the chief figure of the en-
tire case was Gennaro Abatemaggio,
the betrayer.
The scene in the court here today as
the curtain began to descend, was a
dramatic one
The prisoners sat in their iron cages
wan from long confinement but with
unabating hostility against their prose
cutors.
Alfano had promised the Judge that
he would not interrupt the proceed
ings but he had to bite his lips until
they bled before he could control his
impulse to speak.
Carbineers and detectives were ar
ranged about the walls, guarding ev

lPPRECIATES THE OFFER

Lafayette Hanchett, director in the

for the controlling stock, yesterday de-
clned the offer of the Commercial club

scription Of club members to stock in
the hotel corporation. Mr. Hanchett
returned yesterday from Boise. When
pressed appreciation of the willing
ness to assist in financing the hotel s
compile ton. but said he felt it would
be improper to accept.
Taking the view that the completion
of the hotel had become a matter of
public policy in the interest of civic
progression. the board Of governors de-
cided TO urge that each club member
subscribe TO one share of stock in the
corporation, The promotion Of any
private business enterprise was remote
from it's mind. The intention, accord
ing to Secretary Cain s official state
ment, was to do something for Salt
Lake,
Action Is Criticised.
A number of hotel men sharply crit
icised the board s action, declaring
that another hotel such as planned
would be a detriment and injury to
the business Of other hotels In the city,
On the other hand, a number of hotel
men welcomed the action, saying that
the completion of the Newhouse struc-
ture would be beneficial to other hotels
in many ways,
In declining the profferred assist
ance of the club Mr.. Hanchett sets
forth that sufficient interest has been
exhibited by public spirited citizens
who have responded graciously to the
call for subscriptions to indicate that
the funds necessary for the hotel 8
completion would be forthcoming.
Outlook Is Bright.
It was intimated that of the required
money there remains only from $4,000
to $4,000 to be secured in order to
finance the completion as planed.
Mr.. Hanchett said that he was
pleased at the civic pride and willing
ness shown by the club and that be
deeply appreciated its motives, but felt
that it would be improper to accept.
The appreciation he felt, said Mr.. Han
chett, was re-echoed by all the hotel
directors.
When the subscription list has been
completed work on the structure will
be resumed and rushed to completion
without q Palter, according to the d.
rectors.
