,itng up Main street on his bicycle Signor Bagnolli as to whether the girl
der of Ruth Cruger, in New York, in
1917, has been interrupted for an in-
definite period to enable the court to
examine the papers in the trial of
Cocchi’s wife.
There 'was a spirited exchange be-
twoen Signor Bagnoli, president of the
court. and Cocchi. yesterday. over the
latter’s change of attitude toward the
crime. in which the court spoke vehe-
mently in citing incidents narrated in
the confession made by Cocchi and
the findings of American tribunals.
' Cocchi told of having sawed the
body of Miss Cruger so that he might
hide it. Then he broke down. crying
in a broken voice: “i took the body
and tried to conceal if in the cellar,
but the door was not large enough,
and I sawed the body in two. The
girl was dead when this was done."
