A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.

Great Excitement Near Rome Over the
Murder OF a Priest and His Sister.
ROME, Nov. 22.-Intense excitement has
been caused here by a mysterious tragedy
at San Pancrazio, a suburb Of this city.
Father Blondel, q respected priest, lived
with his sister in a small country house
at San Pancrazio. Several days ago Ia
borer named Mazzieri was employed to do
some work about the place.
Sunday Mazzieri entered the room oc-
cupied by Father Blondel. He had been
there but short time when he rushed
out with wild look OF fear on his face
and with his clothing stained with blood
that was pouring from wounds in his
body. To some neighbors who were pass
ing he declared that when he went into
the room he found Father Blondel in a
very excitable mood. Hardly any words
had been exchanged between them when
the priest drew a revolver and fired three
shots at MazEieri.
As the latter fed from the room he
heard another shot and heard the priest
fall. From this he inferred that Father
Blondel had killed himself. Some of the
people who heard the story ran to the
house and entered. They found the body
OF the priests sister in one of the rooms
where she had peen murdered. The body
OF Father Blondel was found on the floor
In his room. The police were summoned,
as was also doctor, who, upon examin-
ing Mszzieri's wounds pronounced them
mortal, adding that he had but few
hours to live.
There are many theories afioat to ac-
count for the affair.

Meeting - Abe Socialist Democratic Fed
erstion-strong Language Used.
LONDON, Nov. 22.-The Socialist Demo-
cratic Federation, through its committee
on unemployed workingmen, yesterday
begun new rent campaign. Waite, the
Socialist who organizes the demonstra-
tions Of the unemployed, addressed a
meeting. In his speech he said that after
today any man who paid farthing in rent
while his family did not have SUFFICIENT
food, would be a cur.
Waite declared tfvat he did not believe
In paying rent. He had not paid any in
seven years and meant never to pay am.
This statement was greeted with chez b.
lie called upon his hearers to initiate the
Irish and pay their landlords with black
thorns.
Emergency committees, he added, have
been formed in every district to assist
tenants who resist their landlords. III the
property owners succeeded in distraining
the ir tenants ii would cost broken heads
Throughout his speech Waite was
greeted with hearty cheers and applause.
Such rant as Waite's is finding acceptance
with the mass OF workingmen, who are
now tainted with Socialism. Waite's
threat that organized bands will resist
eviction Is not an empty one. A vast
number Of cases Dire already occurring in
the slum districts, where landlords dare
not execute writs OF eviction. Waite
boasts that for the past four years he has
lived in the same street and has not paid
penny In rent.
