THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS: MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1910.
150 YEARS IN ALL
Ff
Continued from Pag© One.
this latter crowd, notably one Vaaet,
'whom the secret service men believe
ranks with Lupo "the Wolf’ and Mo
relia.
The eight prisoners, who will ba re
ceived Monday afternoon, and their
sentences totaling 150 years, are as
follows:
Ignaxtn Lupo, "the Wolf, 30 years
and a line of $1,000; a fugitive from
Italy, where he Is under sentence of
eighteen years for murder; also a sus
pect in the celebrated "barrel murder
mystery In New York.
Morello—Twenty-live years and a
fine of $1,000.
Gluseppl Chlllichfo—Seventeen years
and a fine of $000.
Nicola fiylvestre. but 1* years of age
—fifteen years and a fine of $1,000.
Salvatore Clna, owner of the farm
at Highlands, where counterfeit money
waa made—Fifteen years and a fine or
>1.000. * .
Vlncenso Qigllo-TIfteen years and a
line of *1.000.
Oluneppt Palermo -Eighteen year,
and a line of *1,000.
In addition to there eight men and
the eight men awaiting trial, twenty
of the lesser lights, who passed th#
spurious coin turned out by the coun
terfeiting gang on the farm at IHgh-
lands, have already been sent to prison
for various terms.
At to Patroaino.
The New York authorities are satis
fied that Lupo, "the Wolf." and his
gang of Italians have been responsible
for and had an active hand In all of
the more serious Black Hand outrages
committed In New York In the past
half dozen years. There is also a
strong suspicion that "the Woir and
Morello were cognisant of, if not actu
ally participants In, th© assassination
of Lieutenant Detective Petroslno, who
was slain In Sicily about two years ago
while trailing the Black Handers in
their home -territory.
According to Antonio Comito, the
government’s star witness, while a
prisoner at Highlands he heard Lupo
remark: A
••Jt was a good Job when we got rid
of Petroslno.”
The government has also learned that
Lupo waa in Sicily at the time Petro
slno waa murdered by the Black Hand.
The round-up of this band of foreign
criminals Is regarded as one of the
greatest bits of police and detective
work ever turned up In the United
States.

Is Granted—Peachtree Res
idents Hold Meeting.
Proteating against th* proposed cem

more than 60 residents of Peachtree-at.
met at the Chamber of Commerce on
Monday morning.
The object of the meeting waa to
form Home plan whereby they could
prevent the cemetery from being es
tablished. C. J. Haden. who called the
meeting to order, waa elected perma
nent chalrmaq. and W. P. Andrew*
permanent secretary. The first order
of bualnea* was to hear from Chairman
'Haden as to thn object of the meeting.
After briefly outlining the situation,
Chairman Haden called for a discus
sion on the question and for sugges
tions a. to the best way to proceod to
prevent the establishment of the ceme
tery.
Before the digeusston took place a pe
tition for equitable relief, which was
granted Monday morning by Judge
George Bell, was read. In this peti
tion It waa stated that In July, 1909. one
R W. Rose, of the Rom Beatty Com-
K ny, went to the executors of the Cot-
r estate and asked to purchase a
atrip of land 760 feet long on thn east
side of Peachtree road and on the
border of Peachtree creek. At that
time, tt la alleged that Rose declared
that his client, John T. Schley, of Mo
bile, Ala., had no Intention of placing
a cemetery on the property. It waa on
this assertion that the property waa
■old.
George W. Collier and John W. Col
lier. executor* of th* Collier estate, ap
pear aa plaintiff* In the restraining or
der. Th# defendant*, the American Se
curities Company, are .ordered to ap-
E iar before Judge George E. Bell on
arch li to show cause why a perma
nent Injunction should not he granted
to prevent them from selling lot* for
cemetery use.
After considerable dlscuselon a com
mittee. with E. R. HuBose chairman,
wa* appointed to confer with the mem
bers of the state legislature to ask that
a law be passed which would prevent
the company from csuhllshlng the
cemetery.
. After th# discussion Judge W. R.
Hammond appeared before the meet
ing In behalf of his clients, the Ameri-
can Securities Company, and explained
the position of that company In the
deal. Judge Hnmmnnd said that the
company waa acting In good faith and
th.it tt was not a blackmailing scheme,
as some one had said It was. He de
clared that the men Interested In the
cemetery were upright business men
and were In the thing for an Invest
ment. After his explanation Judge
Hammond did not stay to hear the dis
cussion.
At this Juncture W. P. Andrews In
troduced a resolution stating that un
der no circumstances would the resi
dent* of Pearhlree-st. and Peachtree
road allow a cemetery to he established
on the proposed site. T. B. Felder asked
that Mr. Andrew# withdraw his motion
until after the committee appointed In-
veetlgftted the matter. This was done.

New York, Teh. 21.—Carpenter, Baggot A

GRAIN NOTES.
Chicago, Feh. JL—Barlett. Patten A Co.:
Foreign newa this morning la rather bearish
on wheat. The English and continental
markets evidently see enough wheat In
sight to supply their wants without coming
to thn United BUtes for supplies, but we
undoubtedly will see a nervous market here
until the condition of the growing winter
crop la better known.
Receipts of corn about as estimated. Ship
ping demand very poor, notwithstanding
claims to the contrary by the bulls, and
stocks are increaaing and will continue to
increase for some time yet.
Receipts of hoga about aa eatimated. Hog
market steady. We can sea nothing n
sight to cause any particular change in
prices of provisions.
Oats receipts about aa eatimated. Bhlp-
'— demand fair.

Chicago, Feh. 2!.—Liverpool closed 4d to

cash demand not so keen, with th© regular
mills sales light. Outside mills beat buyers.
Th© cash situation, both locally and at

former.
The market for corn started steady to

wheat turned strong, hut the general un
dertone of the market was heavy. We be
