band
Mrs. Caruso was one of the most violently
agitated and excited of the women who
called at the house of Corte, the Italian
consul, on the night of the lynching Ac-
cording to Corte, she wanted the Italians to
rise and have revenge for the action of the
the mayor and Parkerson, the leader
of the mob. 1t was with the
greatest difficulty and only by threatening
to call IN the police that Corte succeeded IN
quoting her and preventing trouble.
Since the lynching of her husband she has
been completely Frustrated by grief. She
was discovered to-day in a semi-comatose
condition and asked only for a priest. saying
that her husband was calling her and she
would join him before night, when it was
fonnd that she had swallowed an entire
bottle of:laudanum. She was at once taken
to the hospital, where every remedy was
tried. She showed signs OF life
when an electric battery was applied, but
little hope was entertained of restoring
her from the stupor in which she has fallen.
Her husband, James Caruso, was fruit
vendor and well to do. He was large and
powerful man. and of great influence with
the Italians, employing number OF them
He was accused of being one of the lieuten-
ants of the Malta, but had not been tried

This is the Subject the Attor-
neys are Discussing
IN CONVENTION ASSEMBLED.
The Permanent Organization Effected in the
Afternoon.
The County and District Attorneys asso-
citation of Texas Will be Organized
ro-Day-Both the Sessions
Very Interesting.

The first annual convention of the county
and district attorneys of the state of Texas
was called to order by District Attorney
Gillespie yesterday morning at 10 O'Clock,
with goodly number of those interested In
attendance.
The object of this convention is TO discuss
necessary revisions of the laws whereby
the prosecuting attorney will have his
hands strengthened and thus be the better
enabled to secure convictions and flore
thorough and satisfactory enforcement Of
the laws.
These are the men upon whom the people
OF the state rely for the proper enforcement
of all the laws and the effectual eradication
of crime of all descriptions, aid conse
quently anything they may do in con-
vention assembled is of interest 10 the peo-
pie at large.
The gentlemen in this convention are a.
young men. They are fired with an ambi-
ton to excel in their chosen profession, and
each of them carries TO the prosecution of =
case thorough determination to see that
the laws are fully enforced, and the obiecc
for which he was elected to office by the
people thoroughly carried OUT. They are
also an intelligent lot of men, and may
justly be styled the flower of the Texas ar.
They have felt the need of an annual con-
vention, where they could come together
and discuss the knotty legal points occur
ring in their practice, and by thus consult
ing and comparing notes prove of mutual
aid and benefit to each other. II was this,
coupled with the fact that a commission
had been appointed TO revise the penal code
and code OF criminal procedure, together
with the civil statutes, that brought lGt
this convention, which will result to-day in
the formation of permanent association.
