I into the field where the Normal school
chickens are kept, and killed and mutt
| lated ninety-six chickens, leaving only
forty alive. The chickens were all of
frying size and their death entails

NEW YORK, June 23.-Simultan-

reported here tonight on high author

"Cocchi's confession removes all
possible doubt there may have been
that he was the murderer" the COM
missioner said, "and makes 1t all the
more important to find out why the
body was not found and why Cocchi
was permitted to escape"
Cocchi abandoned today, In Boz

confessed his guilt Jealousy was his
motive. He was unable. he declared
TO win her love and became furious

been made and official confirmation
is withheld but II has been stated and
generally is accepted here as true
that the Federal government itself

identity OF the numbered men will be
unknown to those in charge of the
draft machinery.
As the numbers are drawn they
will be telegraphed to the home dis
tricts where the registered men will
learn If they have been drafted.
Then the question of exemptions
Will come up and this will go before
the local boards. If man is ex-
empted the man bearing the number,
who was drawn next in order, will
take his place and so on.
In this way all those available tor

registered will be made ready for the
country's need and from the first in
