SPRINGFIELD, Iil, April 18—Of- cials of Illinois, the Italian government and the city set out today to determine whether the office of John M. Picco, Italian consular agent, was hiding any clues to his mysterious death at the hands of shotgun assassins. They decided to invade the office for the first time since three men shot Picco down near his home last Saturday and to search his documents and corre- spondence in the belief the papers may lay open some of his many connections, which were as puzzling as the motive for the slaying. For Picco, wealthy manufacturer, owner of a string of drug stores and a wareholise, bearer of the Order of the Crown of Italy—moved in circles whereof police knew little. He told them nothing, though he sought their protection when his house was bombed, his large fruit warehouse razed and a close friend assassinated. At first it was thought the killing was a political plot, but Giuseppi Castruc- cio, Italian consul general at Chicago, investigating here for his government, said last night he was convinced Picco was slain for no reasons of state. The State Department at Washington has asked the Governor for a full tele- graphic report of the siaying. MURDER DATA AWAITED HERE. Government Indicates International Complications Unlikely. A more complete report on the killing of John M. Picco, Italian consular agent at Springfield, IIl., Saturday was await- ed today by the State Department. It was indicated, however, on account of the fact that he was an American citi- zen, there would be no international problems raised. Informed that Giuseppi Castruccio, Italian consul at Chicago, had said on his arrival in Springfield Picco was an American citizen, State Department offi- cials explained the two governments, in that event, would not be involved. The _department, however, has asked Gov. Emmerson of Illinois for a full telegraphic report as soon as possible on the slaying. This action was taken as a matter of routine and was not prompted by any request from the Ital- iau embassy, which was informed of Castruccio’s going to Springfield and is investigating the citizenship status of Picco. Until the embassy has a full report of the facts from Castruccio it will not decide whether to take the case up offi- cially with the State Department. Am- bassador de Martino is in New York and Count Alberto Marchetti, counselor of the embassy, is handling the case. NAVY ORDERS Lieut. Bryan C. Harper, detached U. 8. 8.
