Pasco Farriddi. an Italian living on
the upper flats near the Smith avenue
bridge, was murdered shortly after
midnight by Jalsma Melano, another
Italian. Melano escaped after the
murder, and has not been captured.
A few minutes after l O'Clock this
morning Frank Plumbo, who lives at 23S
chestnut street, came to the central
police station and. handing Lieut.. Muir
ply small revolver. announced that
man had been killed down on the
flats. The patrol wagon was driven to
the place indicated, and stretched on
the ground in the center of Chest
nut street just beyond the railroad
crossing was the dead body of Pasco
Farrlddi. Frank Plumbo, in broken
Italian. tells the following story Of the
murder: Several days ago Farriddi,
the murdered man, had quarrel with
brother of the murderer. Last even
ing Melano visited the home of Far
rlddi on the flats, and had some talk
about the trouble between Farriddi and
his brother. During the visit Melano
said Farriddi would not be alive at
Christmas time, but no particular atten-
ton was paid to the threat.
Shortly before midnight Melano, Far
rlddl, Plumbo and two other Italians
went to the saloon at the corner
of Chestnut and Washington on invita-
ton OF MelanO, to get a drink. The
party started back toward Farriddi's
house, and the quarrel between him
after crossing the railroad tracks
Melano drew revolver and fired
five shots at Farriddi. The murderer
was not more than four feet from his
victim, bu. from the appearance of the
body only one of the shots took effect.
and that seemingly had entered the
mouth. Melano, after firing the shots,
ran down the Milwaukee tracks
in the direction of the un-
ion depot. Plumbo gave chase
and. after short run. caught up with
the murderer. He told him Farriddi
was only slightly wounded, and, taking
the revolver from Melano, they started
back to the scene of the murder. AS
they neared the spot Melano saw the
dead body Of his friend stretched out
on the ground, and the corpse so
frightened him that he begged
Plumbo to kill him. This Plumbo, of
course, refused to do. and minute
later Melano started for the second time
on run from the scene of his crime.
Plumbo followed, but Melano was too
fast for him, and when Plumbo had
reached the steps leading from Wash
iDgton to Third street the murderer
was out of sight.
Lieut.. Murphy, after notifying the
coroner, took detail of officers and
went to the upper flats in search of the
two men who Plumbo claimed were
present at the time of the shooting.
Farriddi, the murdered man. leaves
wife and three children, the eldest
seven years old. Melano is twenty-four
years old and unmarried.
The patrolman on the beat heard the
shooting, but supposed it was carpenters
at work in neighboring building. and
paid no particular attention to the noise.
Four other Italians, whose names
could not be learned, were arrested and
locked up at 2:30 this morning. They
are to be used as witnesses.

Bat Disturbed the Festivities.

DOSlOA
A dinner party in the suburbs one
evening last week was brought to a
summary ending by the entrance of a
large-siZed bat into the room, which
swooped down over the table, causing
such scattering of the fair sex, incIud-
ing the hostess, as an earthquake could
scarcely have accomplished. The in
nocent cause of all this disturbance
sought refuge in the upper folds Of the
window draperies, whence it was i'm
possible to dislodge 1t, and as the ladies
persistently refused to return to the
dinner room while the intruder held
possession there, the remaining courses
were served informally in the library,
to the scornful amusement of the men.
One of the latter is reported as saying:
"And yet women consider themselves
our equals and want to vote"

extreme parental cruelty that came
under his observation yesterday. lie
was called to see a Hungarian, near
Honeyport, who was Ill with the grip.
After he had treated the man and
was about to leave, he heard groans
in an adjoining room, and upon
investigation found it to be occupied
by a girl of twelve, who was in
the last stages of typhoid fever. SO
emaciated was she that there was
little left of her but skin and bones.
She had not had any medical attend
ance. and when DR.. Evans demonstrated
with the father, the man said: "Oh,
never mind her. Let her alone. She is
nothing but girl, and girls cost too
much, anyhow. They can't even make
their own living" No amount of per-
suasion upon DR.. Evans part would in
duce the unnatural parents to permit
him to treat the dying girl.

THEIR FIRST MEETING

Cleveland's Oncial Family Held "A Two
Hours Conference Yesterday A fternoon
WASHINGTON, March The first
meeting Of ClevelaDd's cabinet was held
this afternoon at tho unusual hour of
o'clock, and it lasted something more
than two hours. All the mcmb ers were
present. Just prior to the assembling
OF the now officers in the cabinet room,
Secretary Carlisle had talk with tho
President concerning the bond question,
and was the first member of tho cabinet
to arrive at tho White House.
Postmaster General Bissell came oarly,
with Secretaries Norbert and Gresham
close behind him. The others followed
soon after, with the exception OF Sec.
rotary Morton, who did not arrive until
nearly 4 o'clock There was no form
ality or ceremony observed in opening
the meeting. Cleveland. sitting at the
head OF the table, started business in a
simple, direct manner. The session was
devote d to discussion OF matters OF
current public Importance, including
the Hawaiian annexation and the
financial situation, which were touch ed
upon.
The greater part OF the time was taken
up, however, with the consideration of
the question OF appointments, particu-
larly those of assistants to the various
Cabinet officers. The neces sity for fill
ing these positions without DELAY was
taken as a self.evident fact, but Glove
land impressed upon his official family
the necessity Of going slowly in making
their selections.

was found lying beside his wife, their

murder was evidently for the purpose

crowd outside waiting admittance was
SO great that the east room was cleared

pass In and out aud thus have an oppor-
tunity of seeing the apartment.
Euliy 5000 people went through tho
White House in this disappointing
manner.
About noon, when the pressure of Of
ncial callers had somewhat slackened,
the President went down to the east
room to receive q line Of visitors who
had formed with the hope of getting a
sight OF him. He shook hands with
each conner and made each person feel
that the smile OF greeting was especially

urday night in honor of his Inaugural
ton: The young ladies were Miss
Evelyn Byrd and Miss Jennie Hester.
Iney were dressed in white silk college

WASHINGTON, March THE Demo

Democrats intended to pursue toward
the populists has been q matter of in
teresting conjecture since it was known
that the Democrats had q clear ma

are to be ignored. Kyle. Of North
Dakota, and PETER, Of Kansas, old
populists. and Allen the new populist
elected by Nebraska, were not invited
to attend the caucus, and to this extent
at least it would seem that they had
been purposely neglected.

1t is understood that there was quito
