Mrs. Humiston held a conference
with Commissioner Woods, at which
he promised TO aid In her campaign
against white siavers. hut she did
not give the Commissioner the names
OF tho twenty-five girls who she
knows were victims Of this traffic.
III 1 should mention their Names"
she said last night Il would sacrifice

would be killed with as little mercy
as was shown TO poor Ruth Cruger."
Mrs. Humiston also conferred with

In Italy.
Three young women who knew
Cocchi were summoned last night to
the Fourth Branch Bureau and ques-
toned by Mr.. Doollng. One by one
they were escorted upstairs. For the
time being the authorities declared
they would keep from publicat tlon any
facts regarding their Identity.
There Is a growing belief that the
murder was not what the police term
one-mnn Job. II was established
that Cocchl was not over-strong.
On Dec. last. Cocchi applied
a. the Italian Consulate. No. a95
Broadway. In accordance with In
structlons sent him from Bologna q
respond to a call TO the colors. He
was Informed by the medical ex-
amlner that he was not fitted for

Mrs. Cocchl went to the Criminal
Courts Building yesterday in custody
OF Detective sergt McGee. who was
under orders TO produce her before
tho Grand Jury. II was decided.
however. not TO question her. an such
action might invalidate tho indict-
ment found against her husband.

according to his story, he found in a

the Condor home to Investigate. but
he reported that II there had ever

there then.
II was then decided to await the
appearance OF the body somewhere,
as that this would happen the prose-
cutor felt certain. On Saturday the
waiting was rewarded with the ind
ing OF Piper's body. An exploration
OF DR.. Condon's cellar now revealed
a bag OF lime which. UPON examina-
ton. Mr.. Stricken stated to-day. was
Identical with that found ON the body.
Furthermore, he stated to-day that
he had obtained some clothing OF DIR.

that the seat Of the physician's motor
