MASS OF EVIDENCE
IN SARAUSO TRIAL
State Presents Strong Circum-
stantial Case Against AL
legged Slayer.

The second day of the trial of Bal
dassare Sarauso, for the murder OF
Stefano Crisofullo. in the Court OF
Oyer and 1erminer, before Judge
Harry v. Osborne, was devoid of Incl
dent, the State through Assistant
Prosecutor Andrew Van Blarcom,
continuing TO pile up evidence that
points to Sarauso as the slayer.
Crisofullo was found dead outside
of a saloon at S5 River street, on the
night of February ! last. A few
hours previous TO his death he had
had a quarrel in the saloon with a
man alleged to be Sarauso, and the
two men left the saloon at about the
same time.
Later two shots We're heard and
shortly after that the body of Criso-
fullo with two bullet wounds, one
through the neck and the other in
the abdomen, was found in an alley
way alongside the saloon.
Sarauso was arrested two days later
and charged with the crime. In a
statement made to Captain, then
Lieutenant Joseph Cordano, at police
headquarters, Sarauso admits being
in the saloon and having an argu-
ment with Crisofullo but denies that
he had anything TO 90 Win the Hilils
of the shots that killed the man. 1t
is alleged that Sarauso owned re-
volver of the same calibre as the one
from which the bullets came that
killed Crisofullo.
The State rested its case at IL
o'clock, and David Bobker, of counsel
for Sarauso, then outlined the de-
fense. He said that the State had
made an arrest mistake in arresting
Sarauso and charging him with the
crime, and that the real murderer
had escaped He named Tony Mar
curio, a boarder at the River street
saloon, as the man who fired the
fatal shots.
In closing Mr. Booker said: ut is
UP TO the State to find Tony Marcurio
and bring him to justice. He is the
guilty man, not Sarauso."
Marcurio is believed to be in Italy,
having disappeared from his New
ark haunts almost Immediately after
the murder. The defense will put
on about dozen witnesses who will
swear, so 1t is claimed, that the shots
that killed Crisofullo were fired from
inside the saloon building, while 1t Is
admitted by the State that Sarauso
was outside the saloon at that time.

Date of Rechri3tening as a
Highway" Is Changed by
FreehoIders' Committees.

Saturday. December 13, has been
selected as the date for the cere-
monies that will mark the opening
and the rechristening of the old
Plank road, the special committees
of the Board of Freeholders and the
citizens associations interested hav-
ing decided yesterday that the first
date selected, December G. was too
early for the completion of plans for

The American Road Builders Asso-
citation will be in convention in

extend an invitation to the road men.
In connection with the proposal to
name the road Essex and Hudson
Lincoln highway" in order to identify
it as a link of the national highway

its maintenance, a telegram from
Henry B. JOY, of Detroit. Mich, pres

alton, was read. The message which
was addressed to Joseph III. Wood, of
the Associated Automobile Clubs Of
New Jersey, follows:
1.-THE proposition to rename the
Plank road appeals strongly to this
association. as it should to your citi-
zens. I believe the Lincoln highway
will be the officially designated route
between New York and San Fran
cisco within the near future The
patriotic efforts of your citizens re-
fleets great credit on the associated
clubs Best wishes

HITS FINGER-PR|NT
EVIDENCE IN FIGHT
TO AID CECER|ELLO
Lawyer Riddles States Testi-
mOny in the Bloomfield
Murder Case.

The fate of Angelo Ceceriello, on
trial in the Court of Oyer and Ter
miner before Judge William p. Mar
tin since a week ago yesterday for the
murder of his bride of four months.
Mrs Alvira Ceeeriello, in a vacant
lot on Chester avenue. Bloomfield,
on the night of May 30 last, will be
given today into the hands of the
twelve jurors who have heard the
great mass of evidence addueed for
and against him.
Frank M. McDermit commenced his
final fight to save the life of his client
when court opened for the eighth day
of the trial at 9:30 o'clock today. Mr..
McDermit made careful review of
the evidence and brought out every
point that was favorable to his client
He ridiculed the testimony of the
finger print experts and pointed out
that the mark on the handle of the
hatchet with which it is alleged the
woman was done to death could have
been placed there by any one of the
dozen or more persons who have han
died the hatchet since it was found,
two days after the murder, in a clump
of deep grass $50 feet from where the
body of the dead woman was discov-
cred.
A passionate attack was made on
the testimony of Alfonso IAaudisi,
convicted murderer, who on the wit
ness stand had detailed an alleged
confession made to him by Ceceriello
while both men were confined in
''murderer's row" in the county Jail
He said Laudisi had been found
guilty of an unnatural and abnormal
crime, that of numbering an hour old
child of which he was the illegiti-

as to the alleged confession were
false in every detail. He insisted
that Laudisi had only made them in
the hopes that clemency would be
extended him that would save him
from death in the electric chair.
Mr. McDermit further pointed out
that Ceceriello's own statements of
his movements on the night of the
murder and the fact that he had noti-
fled the police that his wife was miss
ing from her home had been verified
so fully by other witnesses both for
the State and the defense that it was
impossible for the jury to believe
otherwise than that Ceceriello was
telling the truth.
At times during his argument, WHICH
was an able one, and carefully listened
to by the jury, he would allow his
voice to. sink almost to whisper
while at other times he would hammer
home some important fact in a voice
so loud that it could be heard all over
the Court House.
Mr.. McDermit talked for two
hours and forty minutes, ten minutes
more than his allotted time. In clos
ing he declared in vehement tones

man on the testimony before you, it
being all circumstantial. you are
guilty of murder. You will not dare
do it."

been arrested by Patrolman Cleve-

being drunk and disorderly
When he was taken to cell he be-
gan to rave. Detectives King and
Walsh went in to him and came to
the conclusion that he was delirious
from Illness. They sent him to the
City Hospital in the auto patrol.
The physician and orderly in at
tendance strapped him down on the
operating table and used the stomach
pump on him. Then they released
him and left him lying still until he
recovered, while they gave their at
tention to another ambulance case at
the other side of the room.
A few minutes later it was found
that Clark had vanished. The First
Precinct police were notified and told,
at the same time, that there was
nothing wrong with the man except
alcoholism.
Clark was recaptured and taken
back to the First Precinct. As the
afternoon wore away il became evil
dent that he was really IL. He was
returned to the City Hospital in the
Third Precinct motor patrol at 4
o'clock
Then 1t was discovered that he
was suffering from pneumonia. He
died at $50.
County Physician Mckenzie said to-
day that he would perform no au-
topsy.
ST am satisfied" he explained,
that there was no negligence on the
part of the hospital authorities. 1t
was one of those unfortunate cir
cumstances that cannot be avoided. :"

The federals used cannon in both at
tacks.
The appearance of the federals near
the race track indicated they had
worked their way around the rebel
outposts during the night.
The heavy fighting at Zaragosa, OPP

the claim that General Inez Salazar's
federal troops had been surrounded
and virtually made prisoners last
night, This claim had been made by
Juan N. Medina. chief of General vii

Takes Drink of Liquor;
Woman Calls Ambulance

''Oh, hurry, City Hospital, Please
send the ambulance to 80 Wright
street. A man took carbolic acid,
and he's dying!" was the way some
one, evidently speaking under great
excitement over the telephone, called
for the City Hospital ambulance
shortly before noon today.
The ambulance was rushed to the
house. The nurse in the receiving
room of the hospital got out antidotes
for carbolic poisoning, and everything
was in readiness for the patient.
But when the ambulance got to the
Wright street address no dying
man. was to be found or any person
who thought about dying in hurry.
On inquiry the ambulance surgeon
learned that man had entered tho
alley between 81 and SO Wright sreet
and had taken a drink of whiskey
from flash and had started to take
a short nap When several of the
watchful and sympathetic housewives
in the neighborhood insisted that he
was poisoned he became peeved and
walked away before the ambulance
arrived.
