Suicideeffheory in Case of John
Fedora, is Dispeiled~took-
ing for the Murderer
“I.“
L
TORRINGTON, Sept. 24,—Seventy-
five feet from the spot where the nak~
ed stab-covered body of John Fedora
was found Sunday, Captain Calabrese
of the local police force yesterday
afternoon found a long, blood-stained
bread knife, which the police believe
caused the death of the man. The
knife was hidden among the tall
grass, weeds and brlars behind. a
large boulder. The boulder forms
part of a fence.
Captain Culabrese‘s attention was
first directed to the spot when he saw
that the grass had the appearance
of having been trampled upon, He
is of the opinion that the knife was
placed there by some one; rather than
having been thrown in the bushes at
random.
The finding of the knife, say the
police, removes the possibility of the
theory that Fedora had committed
suicide. The knife has a blade five
inches long, and is pointed at the end.
Both sides of the blade are covered
with blood.
The police are still diligently inves-
tigating the case, which is one of the.
most baffling they have had to con-
tend with in some years. No other
clues have been unearthed.
Toduywit is expected an autopsy will
be performed under the direction of
the coroner.
