Johnson of Hartford, whose body was found In a clump of bushes in Allingtown last week, Wednesday, and he had before him the father of Joseph Macrl who is now held in the Tombs, New York city, awalting extradition to this state. Mr. Macri also is the father of Olympia Macrl who will go on trial next month for killing John Bagnano. The father told the coroner that he could not believe that his boy Joe could have been mixed up in an assault upon Johnson as charged. A brother, Frederick, has recefved a letter from Joseph in which the latter wants his mother told “not to worry as ‘t is not as bad as it sounds."” Joe sald he expected to remain in the Tombs for seven or ten days, and he asked that money be sent as the food was not good. In the let- ter Joe also sald: “We expect to beat the case because we didn't kill him and they haven't got anything on us except we shouldn't have left him." The police officers who are work- ing on the case are trying to trace Johnson's movements last Tuesday to ascertain how he happencd to be in the Oak street district that night and so fell victim: to an assault which was intended to rob him only, according to their theory.
