VENGEANCE OF A MOB.
MURDERERS OF CHIEF HENNESSY
AT NEW ORLEANS LYNCHED,
eleven n.goa »hot or Hanged by a "Com-
Mittee" of 8,000 Citizen*—-A Storm of
Indignation From Italians All Over
the !«l International Compll
eatluns 1'mbable.
NEW ORLEANS, March 1®.—The people
of New Orleans have avenged the cow
ardly murder of David C. Henneuy,
chief of police, who was alm'n on the
night of Oct. 13 last.
The names of those who paid the
death penalty for the crime were Manuel
Polietz, Pietro Monastro, Antonio Scaf
fedi, Joseph P. Macheca, Antonio Mar
chesi, Antonio Bagnetto, Frank Romero,
Jim Caruso, Rocco Gerachi, Charles
Trahine and Coniitez.
The verdict of the jury in the cases of
the eleven Italians on trial for the mur
der, having been read in court, a meet
ing of lawyers, doctors, merchants and
political leaders—all persons of influence
and social standing—was quietly held,
and it was decided that some action
must be be taken, and the people's jus
tice, swift and sure, visited upon those
whom the jury had neglected to punish.
Saturday morning a call for a mass
meeting at Clay square on Canal street,
appeared in the papers, which editorially
deprecated violence. The significant
closing sentence of the call was, "Come
prepared for action."
Answered by the Popul.ee.
The call was answered by the pop
ulace. At 10 o'clock there was a crowd
of several thousand anxious people con
gregated around the statue. They hardly
knew what was going to happen, but
they seemed ready to go any length, and
while there were, of course, many of the
lower element in the throng, alarge pro
portion were the leading people of the
town.
There were three addresses, short and
pithy and' business-like, and the as
semblage, not unwilling, wac soon keyed
up to a high pitch, demonstrative in its
denunciation of the assassins. Each of
the speakers said there had been a great
mass meeting-months before which had
met quietly and dispersed peacefully so
that the law might take its course. The
law had failed. The time to act had
come.
W. S. Parkerson, the leader, is a
prominent lawyer here, the president of
the Southern Athletic club, and the man
who led the vigorous city reform move
ment three years ago. Walter D.
Doneger, another of the speakers, is one
of the leaders of the New Orleans bar
John C. Wickliffe, also a prominent at
torney, and James D. Houston, of the
foremost men of the state. After de
nouncing Detective O'Malley, who is
supposed to have tampered with the
jury, the speakers announced that they
would lead the way to the parish prison.
The crowd by this time num'ered
Fully 8,000 People.
There was just the slightest momentary
lull in the fctorm. Then some one yelled:
"Shall we get our guns!" "Ye3, get
your guns," said Mr. Parkerson. "Get
your guns and meet us inf Congo square
immediately." Loud cheers were given
as Mr. Parkerson and the other gentle
men moved down the steps. Then an
ominous silence reigned and the steady
tramp, tramp, tramp of men falling into
line and marching along waa heard.
The parish prison was reached at 10:30
o'clock. The
Woodeii Door XVmm Broken in
by a large billet of wood used as a cata
pult, and heavy recks were also poured
against it. The door yielded and there
was a wild rush for entrance. The' door
leading into the white prisoners' yard
was open and the avengers crowded
through. A cell just at the door was
opened and it was crowded with prison
ers who were trembling in every limb.
A deputy stood in the door and informed
the crowd that none of those jn that cell
wfere the prisoners wanted. Then the
mob filed out into the yard. When the
armed men got on the inside of the jail
the prisoners ran down into the yard
below. They begged and pleaded for
nnercy,
Bat Their Avengers Were Mvrctleaa,
and a deadly rain of bullets poured into
the crouching figures. Gerachi, the
closest man, was struck in the back of
the head and his body pitched forward
&nd lay immovable on uie stone pave
ment.
Romero fell to his knees, with his face
in his hands and in that position was
shot to death.
Moastero and James Caruso fell to
gether under the fire of half a dozen
guns, as did also Cometez and Trahinia.
W hen the group of assassins was dis
covered on the gallery, Macheca, Scof
fedi and old man Marchesi separated
from the other six and ran up stairs.
ThitLer half a dozen men followed them
and the terror-stricken assassins
Were Slain .a Thejr Ran.
Old man Marchesi was the only man
who was not killed outright. Ge was
struck on the top of the head while he
stood beside Macheca, and, though he
was mortally wounded, he lingered all
the evening.
Pollitz, the crazy man, was locked up
in a cell up chairs. The doors were
flung open and one of the avengers, tak
ing aim, shot him through the body. He
was not killed outright, and, in order to
satisfy the people oh the outside, who
werie crazy to know what, was going on
within, he waa dragged down the stairs
and brought through the doorway by
which the crowd had entered. Half
carried, half dragged, he was takei.
to the corner. A rope was pro
vided and tied around his neck, and the
people pulled him up to the cross bars.
Not t-atisfied that he was dead, a score
of men took aim and poured a volley of
Bhot into his body, ana for several hours
the booy was left dangling in the air.
Bagnetio was treated in a similar man
ner.
Just as soon as the bloody work was
done Mr. Parkerson addressed the crowd
and asked them to disperse. This the
consented to do with a ringing shont,'
bnt first they made a rush for Parkerson,
and lifting him bodily, supported him
od their shoulders while they marched
up the street. The avengers came back
in a dody to the Clay statue and then de
parted.

OFFICAL NOTICE TAKEN.
The President Daly Deplores the Actios
of th. Now Orleans Mob.
WASHINGTON, March 16.—Baron Fava,
the Italian minister, has formally
brought to the attention of the president
the slaughter of theSicillian prisoners in
the pariah jail at New Orleans. As a
result, Secretary Blaine sent the follow
ing dispatch to Governor Nicholls:
"It hM been represented to the presi
dent by the minister of Italy accredited
to this government that among the
victims of the deplorable massacre
which took place in the city of New
Orleans Saturday wen three or more
subjects of the king of Italy. Our treaty
with that friendly. government (which
under the constitution is the supreme
law of the land) guarantees to the
Italian subjects domiciled in the United
btafcs the most constant protection and
it or he
amenable on the same basis as our own
citizens, to the laws of,the United States
and of the several states, in their due
and orderly administration. The presi
dent deeply regrets that the citizens of
tfew Orleans should have so disparaged
the purity and adequacy of their own
judicial tribunals as to transfer to the
passionate judgment of a mob, a ques
tion that should have been adjudicated
dispassionately and by settled' rules of
law. The government of the United
States must give to the subjects of
friendly powers that security which it
demands for our own citizens when
temporarily under a foreign jurisdiction,
it is the hope of the president that you
will co-operate withliim in maintaining
the obligations of the United States to
wards the Italian subjects who may be
within the perils of the present excite
ment, that further bloodshed and viol
ence may be prevented and that all of
tenders against the law may be prompt
ly brought to justice."
THEY THIRST FOR VENGEANCE.
ItaUan. All Over the World Exelted Over
th. New Orleans Slaughter.
LONDON, March 16.—A dispatch from
Rome says that the news of the massa
cre of the Italian prisoners at New
Orleans has created a profound sensation
and cables have been passing between
the cabinet and the Italian minister at
Washington. The general feeling is of
indignation and thirst for vengeance of
some sort. It is expected that the sub
ject will be brought up in the chamber
of deputies. In the taik on the Btreet
and in public places strong protests
were uttered against any representation
of Italy at the coming American exhi
bition.
Count Rasponi, of the Italian legation
in Paris, expressed himself in very
strong tf rms on what he called the cruel
massacre of his countrymen. He said
Italy could not afford to let such on out
rage on humanity go without redress,
and that it was a stain on the American
people that could never be effaced. He
added that, in his own personal opinion,
it ended all prospect of Italy taking any
part in the Chicago exhibition. The
count was very excited.
Among Italian residents in London
there is much excitement on the subject
and the slaughter is fiercely denouueed.
There is some talk of amass meeting of
Italians id.this city to protest against
the course of the American authorities
in permitting such a crime and to re
quest King Humbert to demand satis
faction.
POISON PROMISED
To the Leader of th. K.w Orleans Mob.
The Stilleto for the Best.
NEW ORLEANS, March 18.—'W. S
Parkerson has received the following
note, purporting to come from a mem
ber of the Mafia' society: "You are a
doomed man, and God Almighty cannot
save you. We have it sworn. Our
comrades you murdered and we kill
you. You will be poisoned. The stil
letto will do for the rest." Neither Mr.
Parkerson nor his friends are at all con
cerned about the threats. Mr. Parker
son said he was proud that no violence
was visited upon the innocent prisoners.
Asked Protection in Vain.
NEW ORLEANS, March 16.—Mr. Pas
quale Corte, the Italian consul in this
city, states that he called on the mayor
of New Orleans and governor of Louis
iana and asked for protection for the
Italian subjects among the prisoners.
None was given by either official. He
immediately4 communicated with the
Italian minister in Washington and also
with the home government at Rome.
Four of the eleven are Italian subjects,"
viz: Monasterio, Marchesi, Comitet
and Trahina. The others are either of
American birth or naturalized.
Satisfaction Promised.
ROUE, March 16.—The Italian cabinet
has instructed by cable the Italian min
ister at Washington, Baron De Fava, to.
protest vehemently against the murder
of the Italians in the prison at New
Orleans. Baron Fava has cabled in re
ply that he had presented the protest to
the government of the United States
and received in reply the promise that
full satisfaction would be given.
Kx-Secretary Bayard's
Opinion.
WILMINGTON, Del., March 18.—Ex
Secretary Bayard says he sees no ba$is
on which the Italian government could
claim indemnity for tbe men killed at
New Orleans, There was no discrimina
tion against Italian citizens and Ameri
can citizens. The case was not parallel
to the Wyoming massacre of Chinamen,
in which indemnity was allowed.
MADE ARCHBISHOP.
The Pallium tn Be Conferred ou BUl&op
Katzer of the Milwaukee Diocese*
MILWAUKEE, March 14.—The papal
brief, accompanied by a letter of expla
nation, appointing Bishop Katzer arch
bishop of the diocese of Milwaukee, has
reached him from Rome. The cere
mony of conferring the pallium will
take place in this city in a few weeks,
and will be conducted by Cardinal Gib
bons.
SOLONS EN.RAPPED.
Several California Legislators Caught
Accepting Bribes in Behalf of Felton.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., March IS.—After
the adjournment of the joint legislative.
convention, a sensation was caused by
the entrapping of several of. the legis-^
latere in an actual case of bribery in be
half of Felton. A prominent Repub
lican has been for seven! days in jios-"
session of inforjnation that members of
the legislature Were being bribed to vote 1
for a United States senator. A memo
randum wais'fished out of the waste bias-1
ket in the state library, on which names
and amounts were given. It had been
torn up by some careless boodler, but
was pasted together again by the person
who found it. This evidence was quickly
followed to its conclusion and the whole
thing turned over to Attorney General
Hart. That official, when awed to tell
the story, said: "The amount of money
to be used in purchasing votes was |21,
600. This money was drawn from a
bank in Fresno,'but the name of the
bank'I will not give you. The amount
to be paid each member "was $2,000.
That is all I shall say."
The memorandum in the hands of At
torney General Hart gives the names of
the assemblymen purchased and the
amounts each received.
DE YOUNG HAS WITHDRAWN.
*very IndieaUen That Felton Will Be
Xleetad Senator From Callforn a.
SAK FRANCISCO, March 18.—De Young
has withdrawn from the senatorial fight
and his supporters will go to Felton.
This means his election without doubt
and without purchase. Every indication
that Faiton will be elected.
