t:endarmes on the Way FROM IL.
ally TO Try and Identify the
Bandit opposite.
Nav York Sun. July 1911

Commissioner Osborn yesterday, on
the proceedings for his .extraditlon
/ The prisoner was taken from Ludlow
street Jail by Deputy Marshal Bern
hard and another officer, who sat by
his side in the court room during the
examination. A photograph OF him
taken in New Orleans, and similar to
| the one sent to Italy and recognized
there as a likeness of Esposito, was
shown to a number of spectators IN the
court room. 1t represents the prison
er standing with companion, whose
right hand is resting on his lett shout
der. His face is not unlike that OF
Mr.. Gould, except that the nose is
not SO prominent. The longitudinal
scar over the bridge of the nose, which
ID said to be one of the marks Of Ban
dit Esposito's identity, can not be de-
tected in the prisoners face by casual
scrutiny. When his forehead is con-
tracted, as was frequently the case yes
terday while he was being inspected,
| the faint mark is lost in wrinkle.
Ex-Judge VIM. q. Choate appeared
for the prisoner, as associate counsel
with DR.. Lorenzo Ullo. Frederic X.
Condert and Paul f. Fuller appeared
for the Italian government. Mr.. Full
| Ter handed to the Commissioner nine
papers and receipts and $40 taken
from the prisoner at the time OF his
arrest. He said that the receipts
would show that the prisoners name
| in New Orleans was not Rebello, but
| Constance, and Mr.. Fuller added that
! he did not believe Rebello was the
prisoners name in Italy. Heread the
| following cable dispatch to the Italian
| Consul at New York.
ROME, July IL.
Italian Consul, 10 be forwarded to Prince
Camporeale:
Photograph and declaration ascer,
raining identity Of Randazzo forward
ed Consulate Oh instant. Gendarme:
started yesterday from Palermo on
English steamer Alexandra, Royal
| Anchor Line, which, after touching
| Naples, will proceed direct TO New
York. MANoINI,
Minister Foreign Affairs.
Mr.. Fuller renewed his application
for an adjournment to allow the intro
duction Of the evidence now on the
way from Italy.
| DR.. Ullo again asked for Rebello'
discharge. Imprisonment for twenty
| four days on suspicion, he said, was {
wrong to the prisoner. The eyidene,
| for which it was proposed to wal
might have been produced immediate
iy after the arrest was made. 1t wai
claimed in the papers that one of th'
meaus of identifying opposite was
LONGITUDINAL scar on the forehead
Where did any scar appear on tn
, forehead of the prisoner? If it ex
listed the prisoner could not hav
; wiped it away. The prosecution
could not plead urgency, or that tn
prisoner was fleeing from justice a
the time the arrest was made. H'
was living quietly ia New Orleans
: Consul described the prisoner deten
ton as wrong which ought not to b
, permitted in land of liberty.
Mr.. COudert replied that wrongs a
great we're done in this country ever,
Jay. 1.-THE prisoner was really kspo
sito he was cue of the worst sc0un
dreIs alive, and neither New York 0
New Orleans would care to have biz
as a citizen, He had killed for money
cut off the cars of a gentleman 10
money, and tortured lady for money
The statute of liberty need not shiyel
Y or. if painted, need not blush becaus
, the prisoner was detained two week
until his identity could be established
: He was, at any rate, man who gave
false name.
"WLoi is he?" asked Mr.. Coudert
9 The prosecution say he is EspOsitC
He says he is Raqdazzo."
Ex-Judge Choats-He says he
Rebello.
Mr.. Coudert-We doubt if that
his name.
Ex-Judge Choate cited the case 0
an Italian extradited as a bandit ]
1875, and tried on another charg
when he got to Italy. lie asked tina
the prisoner be discharged, aud b
Femandel to give the prosecution OF
I Portapity TO procure a new wsrfaI
from United States magistrate q
. New Orleans. He said that ther
might be forty or one hundred vii
nesses in New Orleans who could tes
: tify to the prisoners identity, yet yl,
could not be examined by commits
sion. To return the prisoner to Ne
Orleans would not delay the prOsecu

NJ. Caudert asked why the prisone
did not take ths stand and t,ll a
, about himself. Already two OF thTe
men had been stabbed in New 0rleal
ri because they we're suspected Of hayin
, betrayed him.
, Dr.. Ullo-The prisoners friend
/ were the ones stat bed.
{ Commissioner Osborn decided
