HARTFORD, June 9.—-'Crlnglng in

mutation of his sentence to be hang-
ed. “Chicago Joe" Buonomo. slayer of
Jennie Cavalieri. in Stratiord. in Sep-
tetnber 1912, appeared before the
Board of aPrdons in person. yesterday
afternoon.
The incident was without prece-
dent. It is usual for counsel for the
prisoners to make appeals of this
sort, through their counsel. But
Buonomo's case developed several
unusual phases, through the claims
of counsel yesterday morning that he
'had been ccnthed on perjured testi-
mony.
' Buoner‘no‘e Crime. ,
Buonomo was one of a party of
five men who hired an automobile in
Bridgeport and taking the woman
from a resort in the tenderloin to
Strattord. alighted with her and shot
her to death.
Buon'omo's companions, all well
known in the tenderloin of Bridge
port,‘ were not held for the murder,
the State being content with obtain-
ing his conviction. 'Buonomo came to
Bridgeport from' Chicago, it was
claimed. with the idea in mind of
killing the woman because she had
