GREAT FALLS, Mont, Aug. 15.—The love of Castale Gabuta and Lucla Tire led to a tragedy at Great Falls this morning. Gabuta, who is a young mechanic em- ployed at the Boston and Montana smel- ter, had for a long time been paying at- tentions to Miss Tire, the 1S-year-old daughter of Angelo Tire, a small trader. He was objectionable to both the girl's father and brother, Joseph Tire, and an elopement was planned. The father and brother discovered the | plans of the clovers and Gabuta was warned not to see the girl again. The lat-| ter was locked in the house, but man- | aged to see her lover. The father learned | of it and with his son went to the house | where Gabuta lived at 5 o'clock this | morning and asked him to come out. As he left the house the. two men sprang upon him and said they meant to kill him. He fired two shots and both struck the old man, inflicting fatal wounds. Young Tire wrenched the weapon from | the hands of Gabuta and beat him into | insensibility with it, fracturing his skull. | Belleving Gabuta to be dead, he fled, and all day eluded capture. When the girl was informed of the tragedy, that her father was fatally wounded, her lover | likely to die and her brother a fugitive, she became a raving maniac and had to be placed under restraint. A warrant was ordered issued for the officer who told Gabuta te carry the re- | | volver. —_— e Suicide Outlaw’s Ante-Mortem Joke.

It is to | our interest that an election should be prevented which, according to recent ex- periences, might lead to differences which _would upset the relations of the church and state. It s unnecessary to add that | the action of the Austro-Hungarlan Gov- | | ernment was not influenced jv any other | power.” { ROME, Aug. 15.—The consecration of | the Rev. J. J. Harty of St. Louls as Arch. | bishop of Manila took place to-day in the | Franciscan Church ‘of St. Anthony. Added ' interest to the ceremony was given by the fact that the first Archbishop to be con- secrated under Plus X was an American. Cardinal Satolli officiated and was as- | sisted by two Bishops. After the cere-| mony refreshments were served in the re- fectory of the Franciscan monastery. The | fact that the first American Archbishop | of Manila was consecrated in the church which is the seat of the general house of | the Franciscan monks, one of the four orders objected to in the Philippines, was | much commented upon. Cardinal Satoli later gave at his residence a dinner in | honor of Archbishop Harty. Toasts were drunk to the Pope, President Roosevelt and to the success of Archbishop Harty | in his labors in the Philippines. Arch- bishop Harty will leave Rome mext | Wednesday. Cardinal Gibbons left Rome to-night for Switzerland, where he will remain some time to recover from the heat and his la- bors In Rome. The Cardinal, however, is suffering only from slight lassitude, oth- | erwise being perfectly well. Sir Thoma# Esmonde, M. P., the delagte to the papal coronation of the Irish Par- jamentary party, to-day recelved from the Pope the following letter relative to the audience he had with the Pontiff yes- terday: You have discharged gour high and honor- able mission in the na of the Parllamentary | party in Ireland, laying at the feet of the | Holy Father an elevated address. The occa to direct his attention to the lovalty and un- | aying fidelity of the Irish people comes most appropriately in the midst of the loyal ex- pressions from all parts of the world.

JURY ADJUDGES | DILLARD GUILTLY Former Clerk Is Held for Chinese Certifi- cate Frauds. Former United States Reyvenue Clerk ‘William H. Dillard, accused of forging signatures to certificates issued to Chi- nese, was found guilty last night on four different charges. The jury retired for deliberation at 3:30 o'clock yesterday aft- ernoon, and at 10 o'clock handed its ver- dict to Judge de Haven. The decision occasioned no surprise to those who were famillar with the testi- mony in the case. The trial occupied a great deal of public attention. During the trial the courtroom was crowded with all sorts and conditions of men. A number of defendant’s friends, colored There was much interest in Chinatown, and many Chinese were present through- out the trial. The forensic battle ended yesterday with United States District Attorney ‘Woodworth's reply to defendant's coun- sel. ¥ United States District Attorney Wood- worth began the closing argument for the Government in the forenoon, and in reply to the defense led the jury through the tortuous windings of the ar- gument that had been made for the de- fendant by Mr. Shortridge. Mr. Wood- worth caused a smile to ripple through the courtroom by calling.Mr. Shortridge by the name of “Foxy Quiller,” the comic character in De Koven's “Highwayman" personated so effectively by Edwin Stev- ens. Mr. Stevens and Mr. Shortridge are of the same stature and equally lithe and lissome of form, and Mr. Woodworth's comparison made a hit. Mr. Woodworth in a vein of pleasantry proceeded to say that he was sorty that the Government could not accommodate the counsel for the defendant with a photograph of Dillard In the act of forg- ing the signature of John C. Lynch to a Chinese certificate of residence, that being evidenily what they demanded In their client. Deeds of that kind, he added, are usually done in the dark, at home and after office hovrs. In laying bare what he called the fallacles of the argument of the counsel for the defense the speaker all the witnesses for the prosecution— from John C. Lynch down to the hand- writing experts and the District Attor- ney's office—had engaged in a conspiracy to convict Dillard by means of perjured testimony and false evidence. This, he added, was too great a tax on the cre- dulity’ of any sane jury, more especially since the defense had not attempted to introduce a particle of evidence that could in the most remote manner lend color to that theory. Mr. Woodworth paid a high tribute to the character of Mr. Lynch for truth and integrity and earnestly defended him from the scurrilous epithets that had been | showered upon him by the leading coun- gel for the defense. Then Mr. Woodgorth took up the forged | certificates and compared the signatures with the admittedly genuine signature of John C. Lynch, showing the earmarks of forgery. From that point he followed the acts of the negro clerk through the whole history of the case, and showed how all the acts that had been testified to by the witnessel for the Government proved to be strong links in the chain of circumstantial evidence that had been woven around Dillard. The jury was then charged by Judge | de Haven, and entered upon their delib- erations at 3:0 p. m. —_———————— ~ ANA. Ky., Aug. 15.—J THE CRIMINAL CALENDAR District Attorney Byington’s Ieport Tells of Many Felony Trials. The repoft of District Attorney Bying- ton, which has just been filed, shows that during the last year there have been 32 actions filed in the Superior Court against defendants charged with felonies. Of the cases brought to a hearing there have been 194 convictions and 40 acquit- tals, a percentage of convictions amount- ing to 83, which is a record unrivaled in the history of the office. 4 Among the convicted defendants whose cases have attracted more than local in- terest are noted the following: Frank Woods, Willilam Kauffman, John Court- ney, Willlam B. Kennedy and Willlam Henderson, charged with ithe murder of Police Officer Eugene C. Robinson; Joseph King, the preacher burglar, convicted on three charges of burglary, together with his companions, Thomas Barker and Hen- ry Hamilton; John H.

Aug. 15.—The Georgia Prison Commission, which has been in- vestigating the whipping of Mamie de | Cris, a white woman convict on the State prison farm, made its report to-day. With | the report came the announcefnent of the | resignation of Warden Allagood and its accéptance by the commission. The charges of improper proposals by Allagood, alleged by the woman, and sim- flar conduct toward other female con- victs, are found to be absolutely false and maliclous. The report says the War- den acted entirely within his authority in whipping Miss de Cris and that he was led to it by severe aggravation. The commission concluded that this particular punishment was an “error on the part of the Warden, who, recognizing that his usefulness may have been im- paired by reason of the prejudice against him caused by the De Cris affair, has voluntarily handed in his resignation.” —————— A little applause doesn’t always mean an encore.
