A RUSSIAN SENSATION
A MUCH-ROVED COUNTESS,
Romk, March 20
The trial ot M. Naumoff (a Russian), M. Prilukoff (a lawyer), and the Countess Taruowska (a Russian divorcee), for the murder of Count Kamarowski, at Venice, in September, 1907, which commenced at Venice on March qlh, is still proving sensational.
The records show that at the lime ot the crime the Countess confessed her complicity, alleging that Naumoff fell desperately in love with her when she was betrothed to Kamarowski. Naumoff determiued to get rid of the latter, whose life was insured for £ 20,000 in favour of the Countess Tarnovvska. Prilukoff confessed to complicity. The Countess Taruowska, in the course of several days’ examination, told a thrilling story of her married life. Her husband was a brutal drunkard, and was constantly unfaithful. The Countess's only lover was Bordenski, whom her husband shot with a revolver while Bordenski was in her arms. The evidence showed that a man named Stalk killed himself for love of the Countess.
Tire Countess, in her efforts to clear herself, violently accused Nanmolf of inciting the murder of Kamaroski, though NanmolT’s love for her seems to continue.
