D., June 28.—De- spondent because of brooding over the world war and fear af conscrip- tion, Martin Johnson, 23, a farm labor- |‘ er employed on the Phillip Wellman farm near Courtenay, committed sui- cide last night by hanging himself with a leather strap from a harness in Wellman’s barn. Coroner Depuy of Jamestown was called and pronounced it a plain sui- cide case. COCCHI READY TO PAY PENALTY. FOR GRUGER CRIME Bologna, Italy, June 28.—“I feel my- self acquitted morally, but I am ready to undergo the legal penalty of my country,” Alfredo Cocchi, slayer of Ruth Cruger, is quoted as saying to the interrogating judge at the last questioning of the prisoner. Cocchi, however, according to re- liable authority, sent out this message yesterday to a friend: “I am guilty and I want to pay the penalty. Why spend your money on a lawyer? I won't see him.” There is no doubt that Cocchi has a horror of a sentence to death by the American electric chair. This abhorrence is shared by all his friends, and they, with the prisoner's relations, are starting a fund to fight proceed- ings for his extradition. (Meanwhile, his mental condition is under consideration. “Iam not prepared to say whether Cochi is insane or a nervous pervert,” said Professor Augusto Murti, Italy's famous nerve specialist. “Although he has spoken of suicide, he hasn't the courage to commit it or to make a serious effort to escape.” An examination of Cocchi’s record here indicates that before he left for America he was considered an un- ibalanced adventurer with anarchistic tendencies. He quit Italy for the Uni- ted States after becoming a bankrupt. WHITE SLAVE AGENT. New York, June 28.—In connec: tion with the investigation of the methods by the police in attempting to catch the slayer of Ruth Cruger, it was said today evidence of import- ance had been discovered by Miss Grace Huihiston, whose efforts led to the finding of the body, which bears out her contention that Alfred Coc- chi, confessed murderer, was a mem- ber of .a white ‘slave ring, operating here and in Mexico READY TO PAY UP TO $500,000,000 FOR OLD FLIVVER—I8 HE SANE?
