PALLAS TO BE SHOT.
THE NOTED ANARCHIST TO DIE

BARCELONA, Oct. 2.-The court-martial
In the case of the Anarchist Pallas. who
threw bombs at Martinez de Campes one
week ago, has pronounced on him the SEN
tence OF death.
The court spent all night debating the
method OF executing the sentence. Two
members wished to have the man garroted
as a common criminal; the others thought
he should he shot. II was agreed finally
that he should be shot, with his back to-
ward the firing party.
Campos is trying to obtain pardon for
Pallas whom he regards as the irresponsi-
BILE victim OF evil associates. There Is little
prospect, however, that he VIII succeed.
After Pallas heard his sentence he was
allowed TO see his children. He threw his
arms around them and kissed them re-
peatedly, and when they We're lead away
he was too much affected TO speak. Only
on this occasion has he shown emotion.
When told that he would not be permitted
TO see his wife or mother he said nothing.
When he heard his sentence he seemed
to be perfectly indifferent He has ex
pressed but one regret that he was not
allowed TO address the court In defence oi
his attempt upon Campos's life He says
that he owed it to himself and the cause
Of anarchy 10 tell the world how honest
and disnterested were his motives. He
eats with good appetite. sleeps well, and
SMOKES with relish. Last evening an
anarchist was arrested for saying that he
