The man Seaffedi, who was one of those shot to death in New Orleans on Saturday, was in- in New York some time ago. One Carracei was sus pected of giving away the secrets of the Mafia and he was nominated for vengeance. Scafiedi met Carracci on the street and grasped him nestly by the hand, erying out, “Ah, John: go glads to see you; hope a’ you ’ wella. And he held firmly’ on to John's hands while a third party stepped up behind and dvew a long dirk knife caressingly up and down Cerzaeci’s face, laying it open from top to bot- tom. Scaffedi was the one who caught Carracci fell, saying as he did jn, da poora end it was owing to his intervention that the third party slipped away. John recovered and ever since then he has been aftér Seatfedi with much enthusiasm, but unfortunately he himself fell from gra his term has not et expired. He ded to kill Seaffedi as soon as he was afree man, but the people of 1? Orleans got in ahead of him and there is nothing left for him to do in the matter. MEMBERS OF THE MAFIA IN THIS COUNTRY. ‘There isan immense number of members of the Matia in this country and the most of them are from the very worst class even of that un- desirable set. Of the foreign element in this country who are arrested as eriminals 53 cent of those that have come ct with the secret service are Italian: Sicilians are Italians and there is no record to show what portion of this 53 per cent hails originally from Sicil AS COUNTERFEITERS. It is said that the secret service of the United States has been aware for several years of the operations of La Mafia in this country. Their counterfeiting, which is their diversion as well asa part of the duties of their profession of crime, could not fail sooner or later to bring them before the eye of the government's de- tive force.

He tried to sell the watch to eral persons, telling them that it was a/ | Christmas present to him, but no one would | | buy it trom him. So he hid his plunder in a hollow tree uear the branch not far from Clark | Milis’ station. Although it wax known that the boy took the wateh he denied it until Policeman ‘abe placed hia under arzest, and then he | told where he had put it. Judge Miller was puzzled to know what to do with the boy as his pazents were not in court, and the officer said that they did’ not even visit him at the police station. ‘the judge thought that the reform school was the best place to send the boy, but beiore sen- tencing him he would like to’ hcer something | from his parents.

After the adjournment of the Criminal Court, Judge Hagner, yesterday afternoon with the case of Judge Charies E. Kincaid, in- dicted for the murder of ex-Representative W. P. Taulbee in February last, there was an in- formal conference of counes on both sides in the district attorney's office. At this conference Gen. Grosvenor, Judge Wilson and Mr. L. M. Smith of counsel for defendant presented his affidavit in support of a thotion for postponement until Monday next. This affidavit says that defend- ant 18 not guilty of the crime charged; that he can prove at divers times threats against his life and they were communicated to him; that he can so prove by the testimony of Hon. Polk Laffoon of Alabama and that Mr. Laffoon inte from time to time by ad- vice, permasion and otherwise in preventing Taulbee from ing his threats into execu- tion, and. that on Friday he received informa tion that Mr. Laffoon's attendance can be pro- cured within a week. A MATERIAL FEMALE WITNESS. The affiant further swears that Mary L. Wil- mon of New Orleans is a material witness, who will testify that Samuel Donaldson, the prin- cipal witness for the government, told her on the evening of the shooting that he was taking ‘Taulbee away to prevent him from killing the afiant at the time of the shooting, and that if affiant had not shot Taulbee the latter would have killed him, and that he had just been in- formed for the first time that Donaldson would deny #o stating to Mrs. Wilmon. He states t! efforts he has made to secure Mrs. Wilmon’ attendance and that he has received a note from her in which she declines to come. The affiant further says that Hon. Thomas H. Painter is an important witness,by whom be can prove facts and circumstances tending to show a deep-seated malice on the part of Taul- bee toward affiant and that a‘fiant was appre- hensive of an assault upon him and was avoid- ing coming in contact with Tantbee. MESSRS. GOODNIGHT AND STONE. He further says that he is advised by counsel that it will be important to fix the time of the writs connected with the case, and'in that con- nection the testimony of Hon.
