Body of Dead Man Identified - Local

Information.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 10.-The visit of
Baron 1(ayor des Planches, the Italian am
bassador to the United States, to this city
Saturday afternoon to make inquiries into
the circumstances connected with the death
of Joseph Leanto, the Italian subject who
shot George A. Matcomb at Lorton. Fairfax
county, last Thursday, is being discussed
with deep interest in this city. The tragic
affair at Lorton. resulting in two deaths,
had attracted unusual attention and had
caused grave apprehension of further trou
ble. The fear that some of the friends of
Leanto in the railroad camps. en'ertalning
the opinion that their fellow countrymen
had been unfairly dealt with, might seek
means for summary revenge, gave the
authorities in the vicinity of Lorton con
siderable concern. This was shared in some
measure by the police of this city by reason
of the fact that hundreds of Italiaa laborers
are employed on the railroad monstruc
tion around Alexandria. In fac , a continu
ous chain of construction camps extends
from this city to the scene of the double
tragedy in Fairfax.
So far as is ascertained, nothing has oc
curred up to the present to bear out the
apprehension of the authorities. To his in
quiries respecting the general reputation of
the Italian laborers in this section of the
country. Chief James F. Webster of the
police force replied that it was good. Chief
Webster informed the ambassador that
only one Italian prisoner has been In the
city jail in a long time. In answer to ques
tions the chief also stated that laborers of
tl'at nationality employed around Alexan
dria are noted for their industry and at
tention to business. While the Italian rep
resentative made no specifle statement as
to his mission to this city. Captain Webster
said his purpose was clearly indicated by
the line of his remarks and questions. He
was apparently satisfied with the result of
his visit, but Captain Webster made it
clear that the local department, not hav
ing jurisdiction over the scene of the af
fair, could furnish only collateral facts.
EXCITEMENT AT LORTON.
Citizens Declare Leanto Was a Desper
ate Man.
Speelal Diepatch to The Evening Star.
LORTOhi. Va., April 10.-The little com
munity of Lorton, Fairfax county, is ex
cited over the international sequel which
the investigation here by the Italian em
bassy in Washington has given to the
tragic shooting of George A. Malcolm, a
acputy sheriff and school teacher of this
place, and Joseph Leanto, an Italian lab
orer, near Lorton station last Thursday.
The nervious tension which followed the
first exchange of shots has continuedl in
more or less degree, with a marked accentu
ation over the action taken by the Italian
representative to this country. Apprehen
sion of further trouble, while expressed as
the view of many citizens, Is gviig less
concern than at first, but the people as a
community are anxious to be fully relieved
of any odium which might have attached
to them as the result of published state
ments attributing the death of the Italian
to the work of an armed mob.
Declarations made by the leading people
of the place to a Star correspondent this
afternoon are that Leanto came to his
death while resisting arrest by the deputy
sheriff and a lawfully deputized posse. The
citizens court the fullest investigation.
They believe the Italian representatives,
unless misinformed, will be brought to the
same conclusion, but it is a matter of com
ment here that acting Consul Ravaloli, who
came to Lorton Saturday evening from
Alexandria, returned without receiving the
statements of the residents who were par
ticipants or eyewitnesses in the affair. So
far as known here the consul had no con
versation with any of the townspeople be
yond asking the location of the home of
Deputy Sheriff James Haislip, who was in
charge of the posse. The consul, however,
left on the evening train for Washington
without seeeing the deputy sheriff.
Mr. Springman's Statement.
Mr. J. M. Springman. a merchant of this
place who was a member of the posse, this
afternoon gave a vivid recital of the trag
edy. According to his account, the posse
organized Friday morning about 8 o'clock.
It consisted of himself. John Plaskett, sr.,
'Lindsey Dawson, Peter Eimer, Maltby R.
Bayliss, George Bayliss, A. W. Grimsley
and R. I. Harrover, all prominent citizens.
Going to the commissary department of H.
M. Quigg & Co., where Leanto was em
ployed, the posse secured possession of the
Italian, who made no resistance. The latter
asked permission to return to the commis
sary department to fix up his accounts,
which was granted, but when Leanto re
mained in the car a half hour the posse
.became impatient. Deputy Haislip and
Messrs. Springman Plaskett- and Dawson
entered the car to see what he was doing, he
parleyed for more time and finding his be
havior suspicious, Mr. Springman rushed
upon him from the rear, seizing both arms.
The Italian had time to draw a heavy re
volver, with which he attempted to shoot
over his hkead at Mr. Sprin.gman. A fear
ful scuffle was on, in which the two men
danced around the floor until Leanto ap
parently thought he had a chance to hit
his captor. The Italian fired, but the ball
went crashing throengh his own brain. The
two combatants had whirled around in a
confusing scramble. One of the deputies
took a shot at the Italian at a venture.
the ball lodging in the abdomen. It was
rot. however, until he had shot himself
that Ieanto was overcome.
Mr. Springman declared that the des
perate character of the Italian was alone
responsible for his death. No harsh meas
ures were used, he said, until it became
evident that Leanto had used the respite
allowed hrim for arming himself to defy the
officers. This statement was fully borne
out by others acquainted with the facts.
The idea of his death being suicidal was
not entertained by the deputies. His con
duct, they said, stamped him as a most
dangerous man.
Excitement over the affair is accom
panied by a feeling of sympathy for young
Malcolm, who enjoyed a high reptrtation
in this county.
His Courage Commended.
-Malcolm's courage and solicitud, in the
protection of his scholars is widely com
mended, but it is said he erred in prudence
in attempting to serve the warrant. It ap
pears that Leanto, who knew Malcolm as
a school teacher, questioned his rigiht to
serve the warrant. Before making the at
tempt Malcolm had driven Leanto away
from the Lorton valley school house, where
his alleged insulting conduct toward some
of the girl students had been reported to
the teacher.
The funeral of the unfortunate young
man occurred yesterday afternoon from
Old Pohick Church. near Lorton; Rev.
Everard Meade, the rector, conducting the
Iservices. The unusually large attendance of
peopl, from all over the county attested
the popularity of the young man and the
general sorrow in Fairfax over the tragedy.
The remains were interred in Pohick ceme.

Leanto was suffering from temporary
mania when he received bis mortal wound.

trials were demanded In the cases, and the
hearings would probably have taken place
next week. When Gilchrist went to the
morgue this morning he told the superin
tendent that the man on whose bond he
had gone had p scar on his forehead. There
was a bandage on the forehead of the
corpse, and when this was removed the
scar was revealed. The body is still at
the morgue. No Italian has been near
there to view the remains, and they will
soon be disposed of according to law un
less friends of the dead man claim them.

Are There So Many of UsP
From the Providence Journal.
How many people are there in the world?
This old, always interesting and never con
clusively answered question comes up again
on the announcement by the Antwerp bu
reau of statistics that its investigations
have led to the belief that the total popu
lation of the earth is 1,&i2,303,000 and that
the increase during the' present year will
be approximately 24,703i,000. The figures are
rather high, compared with the common es
timates. but they may be as near as any
other to correctness. For many countries,
including most of those that have the
largest populations, no estimate can be
more than guesswork, because they have
no census. There is none in China, for in-,
stance, which is supposed to be the home
of about a quarter of the human race, and
no accurate enumeration in India, which
must contain at least half as many inhab
itants. The same is true of nearly the
whole continent of Africa. and South
American population statistics are noto
riously inaccurate. It is possible that
there may be as many people in the world
as the Antwerp statisticians compute. But
we cannot be sure; neither, certainly, can
we disprove their figures.
English the World Language.
From the New York lndepesdent.
English is an international language. The
negotiations between the Russiansa and Jap
anese for the surrender of Port Arthur were
conducted, not in French. but in English.
The Japanese generals who took part and
their .associates talk English, andi one of
them Russian. On the Russian side they
brought a young midshipman, who had to
act as Interpreter, because the English of
the officers was Imperfect. In Russia and
Turkey the officia still prefer to use
French, but the rest of the 1world, in the
east as well as the west, turns to English.
