TRIAL OF ITALIAN CAMORRA
TO BEGIN ON Ms RCH 11TH.
Fifty-Seven Members of Ne
apolitan Terrorists, After 4
Years of Police Work, Will
Face the Bar of Justice.
EXPECTED PROCEEDINGS
WiLL LAST ENURE YEAR
I Greatest Criminal Conspiracy
i of Modern Times Unearthed,
Which Lee l to Assassina
tion of Lieut. Petrosmo.
j Viterbo, Italy, Friday, Feb. 17.
This historir town, called by ancient
| writers "tlie city of handsome foun
i tains and beautiful women," has not
| bet n center of such Interest as it
I now is since the 13th century when
the eoncbive which resulted In the
I < lection of Theodore Viscount! as Pope
I Gregory X, met in the Episcopal
Palace here and continued in session
for two years and nine months, dur
ing which time It. was the scene of
unending violence and bloodshed,
among the murdered being the Eng
lish Prince Henry.
At the present time it is a criminal
trial instead of a conclave which at
tracts tlic interest of the whole world.
The leaders of the dreaded Neapolitan
camorra are about to he judged and
the ease may rival in duration the
conclave of 1271 with the difference
that while then the people removed
the roof of the Episcopal Palace to
force the cardinals to come to a de
cision, there now is no way, accord
ing to Italian legislation to shorten
procedure of the courts.
It is expected the trial will occupy
cne year. Unless tnere is a post
ponement it will open on Marcn 11.
Fifty-seven Members.
The trial of fifty-seven members of
that great bund of terroritsts, the Ital
ian Camorra, ninrks the most deter
mined effort Italy has ever made to
ward removing a society whose depre
dations, criminal and political, have
for generations, spilled the blood and
threatened the peace or her citizens.
For years, the Camorra, or Black Hand
Society, us it is better known in this
country, has been a recognized scourge
to the Italian government and to
wealthy Italian citizens; yet so strong
is the fraternal sympathy among its
members and so swift and lawful the
revenge that has overtaken all who
meddle with its affair's, that it has
set at naught all attempts to bring it
to justice.
The crime for which these men are
being tried was perpetrated nearly
five years ago, and the story of those
patient years of investigation, fraught
at every step with death and hampered
by every while knswn to the Black
Handers, is one that rivals the history
of daring and diplomacy, that led to
the disbandment of ttie Molly Magui
res, that famous band that so long ter
rorized the Pennsylvania mining dist
trlct.
Reigning Beauty.
For years, Sonorita I.a Sorrentina
was tiie reigning beauty of the under
world of Naples. Her ex'ploits and
amours were known far and wide, and;
was often w'hispered that persons, of i
high repute, looked with favorable eyes
upon the beautiful Italian. On the!
night of June sth, 1906, her house.:
which was situated in the eentral por-j
tion of the city, near one of its busiest
thoroughfares, was entered and she j
was slain while asleep. When the j
crime was discovered, it aroused the
entire country. Suspicion centered on
her husband, Signoo Ouocolo, who was
strangely absent at the time, and
possess of Italian police sought him
everywhere. Hardly had these ends- !
!
sarles of justice started in their
search, when the body of the supposed
murderer, was discovered by a peas- j
ant, hidden in some hushes, that
fringed a lonely roan not far from,
Naples.
Mysterious Murder.
This turn of tho case brought the
authorities face to face with a mur- ;
tier, mysterious, ruthless and deliber
ate. The populace were clamoring
for action. Day after clay passed
without the shadow of a clue that.
would lead to the perpetrators of the 1
crime, and it was at least agreed upon;
by the authorities, to lay the mystery
at the door of the society, whose his
tory, whether true or false, was stud
ded with such crimes, and an official
announcement was made that suspi
cion lead to the Camorra.
To strengthen the charge, an arrest
was made of several nu mbers of the
society. Including its alleged leader
Signor Krrtcono. The populace, how
ever. refused to accept this action as
a bona-fide attempt to clear up the
mystery, and as the days went by. and
no shred of evidence appeared against
the accused men, the clamor for an
arrest gave way to an equally strong
public demand that the accused be re
leased After fifty days of incarcera
tion. the accused Caniorrlats were al
lowed to go free, and In a short time
the murder of tlje beautiful La Scr
een: Ina and her husband passed into
history.
Secret Forces
Though Krricone ,*n«l his companions
went' fre» to pursue their way unmo
lested and two murders had apparently
Joined that long list of undetected
Italian crimes, sec*ret forces wore nt
work to uncover the mystery. The
authorities at Rome became interested
; II was found that the murder at Na
ples bore many points of similarity to
other crimes that had been perpetrated
|in the past. An investigation was
i quietly started and soon enough evi-
11Jenc< was uncovered to warrant the
j suspicion that some organized band ot
I criminals was implicated, and, Serg
j<ant of the (Jarabunieri, Signor (Ja
| pezutto was chosen to run the mur
i defers to earth.
Quietly and with the utmost caution
Ifapezutto set about his task. The
; trail led to the Camorra. Capezutto
; joined that body and was taken into
i favor by its leaders. Bit by bit he
picked up threads of evidence. He
learned that a man named Abatte
maggio, formerly ldgh in the counsels,
of the < amorrists, had been expelled
by that society, and was supposed to
be familiar with the murder of Cuoco
lo and his wife. Abattemaggio was
in jail and there the detective joined
him. Gradually he wormed himself
into the good graces of his fellow pris
oner and dragged from him the his
tory of tiie crime.
Men of Wealth.
Cuocoio and his beautiful wife, he
learned were in close association with
the Camorra and would through their
doubtful social standing with men ot
wmalth learn the location of treasure
worthy of the hand of criminals whom
they served. The mj’sterious arrival
of the police, however, while the Black
Handers were engaged in their rob
beries lead them to believe that til
Cuocolos were playing a double game
and were acting as the spies of the
police. A Camorra tribunal was call
ed, with Erriconc at its head and it
was decided that Cuocoio and his wife
must die. Six of the most resolute
ruffians heing delegatee. to execute
this sentence. Their plan was to
murder Cuocoio on a lonely road near
Naples, steal his keys and after gain
ing entrance to his house in Naples,
slay his wife as she slept.
Trap Was Sprung.
These facts were communicated tc
the authorites at Rome and in the
spring of 1907, almost a year after the
crime had been committed, the trap
was sprung. The Carabinieri sur
rounded the houses of the suspects and
seized every member of the Camorra
who was present at the fateful tribu
nal. When the prisoners were taktn
to the jail, it was round that their
leader Errieone, was not among them.
A diligent search revealed the fact
that he had in some unknown manner,
learned of the intended coup and made
his escape. He was traced to the port
of New York and arrested by Detec
tive Petrosini head of the Italian bu
leau of the New York police depart
ment who later paid ms a<?vt to the
Black Hand for his activity in inves
tigating its affairs, with his life.
All this occurred four years ago and
since then the authorities have been
making the case stronger every day
with fresh evidence. As the trial ap
proached extraordinary precautions
were taken against an attempted jail
delivery on the part of the relatives
and friends of the Imprisoned men.
The jail guards were troubled. The
little town of Viterbo, where the trial
is being held was filled with soidifrs,
and the court room was provided with
two great iron cages, one for the ac
cused one for the witnesses. This
last precaution was taken to foil any
attempt on the part of the Black Hand
to either murder the witnesses or free
the prisoners.
It is probable that the trial of the
fifty-seven Camorrists because of the
wealth of legal talent that has been
retained by that society and the mul
titudinous charges against its mem
bers, will consume a year, and
in the meantime, the eyes of the civi
lized world will watch with interest
Italy® - attempt to free herself from the
clutches o: a monster that has
strangled the freedom of its citizens
for generations.

$350,000 FOR REDUCING
SIZE IF HOUSE HULL
To Provide For Increased
Membership Bulky Desks and
Chairs to Go.
Washington. —The house Saturday
appropriated J 350.000 for the work of
reconstructing the hall of the house
so as to reduce its size practically to
that of the senate chamber.
The problem of reducing the sizf
the hall of the house and at the same
time to provide for the proposed in
creased membership from 391 to 433
has been met by doing away with
the bulky desks and chairs now as
signed to each member. In the new
house each member will have an in
dividual chair, but there wili be nc
desk. A small shelf will be provided
on the backs of the chairs for use of
members sitting in the row behind.
Two speaking places with large tables
for the accommodation of papers and
books will be provided, one on the
Democratic and one on the Republi
can side.

THE LYNCHING OF
CAPT. THOMPSON’S SLAYER
Continued from Page One.
but twelve o’clock is not a late hour
and the men were not In a large body.
It is about a quarter of a mile from
the Jail to the scene of execution.
The trip Yas made on foot and the
conveyances of the mob were left on
the outskirts of the town. Mr. J. A.
Todd, near whose house the lynching
occurred claims that he heard a crowd
of men passing and shortly afterwards
there were shots. Then all was
still. It seemed that a volley had been
fired and not another firearm rang
out. But the work executed by that
volley was amply sufficient. Many
residents of the town were aroused
by the shots because the discharge of
a weapon in Warrenton at night is
the sign of a fire.
No tongues of flame leaped upward
and no disturbance or confusion fol
lowed the shooting and the Inhabi
tants went back to their beds and
awoke this morning to find the bodies
of the two negroes strung up within
a few hundred yards of their homes.
Sheriff Was Away.
Sheriff Brinkley with a posse of
half a dozen men scoured the coun
try Friday night in search of the ne
gro who was on the train with Jones
when the trouble occurred. Return
ing at 3 o'clock Saturday morning he
met several people in buggies driving
rapidly and going away from the vi
cinity of Warrenton He immediately
thought that there had been some
trouble and when he reached the jatl
he found two of his prisoners gone
and a new lock on the outer door.
There was no deputy sheriff in charge
and the Jail has no fenec around it.
The people of "Warrenton say that
Sheriff Brinkley did not suspect that
there would be any trouble and it
seemed that none of she prominent
people expected any.
It seems that the best people of
this town must be given a clean bill
of health so far as the lynching is
concerned, yet all agree that this
lynching, like the great majority of
lynching®, was caused by the fact that
the people have no confidence in the
courts and they did not care to have
two men guilty of heinous murders
stay possibly indefinitely behind pris
on bars when the gallows should
swiftly claim them as its own through
the swift process of law.
FIRE ON McKINNE
STREET LAST NIGHT
Companies No. 2 and No. 5, t* the
local fire department, responded t!» xsn
alarm from box 6S, which was pulled
at 12 45 o'clock Sunday morning, and
a gpod sized blaze was located at a
one-story frame house out on new
McKinne stret. The cause of the fire
is unknown and the damage amount
ed to about $250. as the building was
totally destroyed.
The location of the property being
outside of the city limits and such
a long distance from a fire plug, caus
ing a considerable length of hose to
be strung out, delayed the depart
ment a little. The place was wholly
afire when the alarm was given and
thus the blaze got a good headway.
The house was owned by Mr. John
Hennies, of the Augusta police depart
ment, and was occupied by Lulu Fra
zier, colored.
WILDER TRADED FOR

Pitcher Wilder of the last year Tourist

splendid outfielder, a fast runner and
a good hitter. It is believed that the
trade will be a good one for Augusta.

FEW CHS BY
HUB LEAGUES
Practically Same Line-ups For
Next Season. Pitchers Play
Big Part In Pennant Races.
(BY MONTY.)
4
A glance at the roster of the Am
erican and National League teams
shows that few changes have been
made for the coming season. Prac
tically no shifts of importance have
been announced and now that the
meetings are over and the schedules
have been adopted, we can sit back
and content ourselves with reading the
dope until the magic call ‘play ball”
is sounded on April 12th.
Pitchers are very important actors
in a pennant drama. By taking a
peep at the past ferformances of sev
eral star twirlers we may get a line
on the chances of a few of the teams,
although dope of this kind is likely to
go wrong as a pitcher’s arm is a
questionable article. In last year's
race the American League had tho
market pretty well cornered for good
pitchers. It was the superior twirl
ing of Connie Mack’s men that landed
the wotld series for the Athletics.
The Cubs were unable to do anything
with Coombs or Bender, while the
Athletics had no trouble in connect
ing with the Windy City twirlers.
The only “no hit” games of the sea
son were pitched by two American
League men—Bender of the Athletics
and Addie Joss of Cleveland. Ben
der’s performance occurred on May
12th against Cleveland, while Joss
pitched his no-liit game against the
Chicago White Sox on April 20th.
Mack has not disposed of any of
his good men. Coombs, Bender and
Plank are all there, and from present
indications are in as good shape as
ever. Bender led the American Lea
gue pitchers last year with a percent
age of .821, while Coombs was third
with .775, and Plank ninth with .615.
With three such men, and the large
number of recruits from which to
choose, the Athletics’ pitching staff
should be one of the best In the lea
gue.
Manager Hal Chase, of the New
York Yankees, has signed up all last
year’s stars. At the close of last sea
son young Russell Ford stood second
In the American'League pitching ranks
with a percentage of .Sl3. This young
man proved the twirling sensation of
the year, and during the coming season
he should develop into one of the
greatest twirlers in the world. Quinn,
Vaughn and Warhop have also signed
up for the season, ana while they are
not in Ford’s class, they show possi
bilities of development.
Donovan and Mullen are Hughey
Jennings’ two best bets. Last year
Donovan won 18 and lost 7 gaffnes,
and had a percentage of .720, being
fourth in line, while Mullen won 21
and lost 12, his percentage being .636.
There are also Willet and Summers,
but the latter did not show good form
last year.
The Boston Red Sox have several
good twirlers who should help to make
things interesting in the pennant
race. They are Collins, Smith, Kar
ger. Hall and Cicotte, Washington still
holds on to Johnson who was very
much overworked last year, and who
is again the one best bet for the capi
tal city.
In the National League we find the
situation slightly different. The pitch
ing staff of the chamipons, the Chi
cago Cubs, appears to be going back.
King Cole made the best showing last
year, winning twenty games and los
ing but four. Mordecai Brown, who
was the sensation of the season, a few
years ago, won twenty-five games, but
lost-fourteen, and towards the end of
the season showed the effects of be
ing overworked. Overall, Reulbach
and Mclntire are still on the roster,
and their rest during the winter
months may have brought them back
to their original form.
The staff which looks the best In
the National League is that of the
New York Giants. Mathewson, of
course, heads the list. Last year he
won twenty-seven games and lost
nine, finishing the season with a per
centage of .750, slightly below that of
King Cole, of Chicago, although the
latter did not figure in so many con
tests.
There are also Wlltse, Ames, Cran
dall, Druke, Raymond and Marquat 1.
besides a host of recruits from the
minor leagues. Last year Druke made
an unusually good showing for a new
comer, winning more than half the
games he pitched, and his work is ex
pected to show a marked improve
ment this year.
Phillippe captured first honors on
the pitching staff of the Pittsburg Pi
rates. although he only pitched five
u hole games. His record, however,
shows that he won fourteen and lost
l 7!?’ Percentage Is given as
• Adams is the next best bet;
be on eighteen games last year and
lost nine, finishing with a percentage
of 661, just below Mathewson, of New
1 ork. Camnitz, a scar in former
years dropped away down the line,
losing thirteen games and winning but
twelve, while Leifield made a very
fair showing, winning fifteen games,
losing thirteen and finishing with a
percentage of .536.
Other pitchers whose percentage
augurs well for the future. Jre Suggs,
of Cincinnati. Richie, wno was for
merly with Boston, but Is now with
Chicago Cubs; Moore, of Philadelphia,
and Barget of Brooklyn.
