Oath Bound AssaSsins Accused Of
Ninety-five Murders.
This Is the Report Of the New
Orleans Citizens Committee.
The Closing Of the Gates to ItaIy's
HOrdes Suggested,
And New State Laws to Make
Punishment Certain.

NEW ORLEANS, May 14.-The committee
of fifty citizens appointed by the Mayor in
October last after the death of Chief Hen
messy. to investigate the existence of the
Malta and other oath-bound societies of as
sassins and to devise some means for des-
troying them, have reported. They dis
covered that ninety four assassinations by
Italians or Sicilians had preceded the muir
der Of the chief, the accused In each case
escaping for lack of evidence. The report
goes on at considerable length to show the
existence here of the Malta. A sub.com-
mittee called upon the Italian consul and
assured him that the purpose of the body
was to legally rid the commonwealth of
criminals and give greater security
to life and property to all its citizens of
whatsoever nationality. The consul stated
that he was satisfied as to this and was
ready to cooperate to this end and he would
Immediately prepare and send the committee
report containing all the information In his
possession. He said he was convinced of
the existence of the Mafina in this city, but
the written information promised the COM
mittee never came. the consul stating that he
did not feel warranted in giving the prom
Ased information. As remedies against the
existing condition of things, the committee
suggest: 1. The regulation of immigration.
O. Reform in the criminal laws and admin
istration of criminal justice. 3. A law rec
ognizing the existence of the bar association
and endowing it with full power to try and
disbar any attorney whose evil practices rem
der him unworthy of being an officer of
court.
"The only radical remedy which suggests
itself to us is the entire prohibition of immi-
grafton from Sicily and Lower Italy," say
the committee. "1hey are undesirable citi-
zens and there is no reason why they should
be permitted to participate in the blessings
of freedom and civilization which they are
not only unable to appreciate but which
they refuse to understand or accept" The
committee in conclusion submitted sugges-
tions regarding the jury system and advised
that the legislature be pititioned to amend
the criminal laws to meet the require
ments pointed out.
