KY, says that in Wayne County, West
Virginia, on Friday night MIR. Brom-

murderd by party of Italians rail-
road laborers. The Italians were en-

homo of Bromfeld, who was reported
to have much money, they demanded
admittance, and with rails and clubs
they began the attack. Bromfeld and
his two half grown sons madea brave
defence, but seem to have had no arms.
Their assailants broke in the doors and
windows, and beat Brom6eld and the
the boy to death with clubs. They
then cut their throats and stabbed
them repeatedly. They then seized the
wife and two younger children and
put them to death. After searchiug

house to the ground. 1t is said that the

Isabel, with happy smile, ''for have come

came more tangible that no more blows or
