Coroner ]. A. Kelley went to Peck
vile yesterday afternoon and assisted
by Dr.. Sickler made a post mortem ex-
animation Of the body of Michael De
marko, who was killed at Jessup sun
day evening during battle which took
place at the house Of Angelo Carzinto
on Back road.
| Contrary to expectation II was found
that there was only one wound on
| Demarko's body, that ON the breast.
over the heart, II had the appearance
| OF having been made by u double edged
| knife. answering the general descrip-
tlon of the knife with which Pascon
Parretto IL said to have been armed.
The blow was aimed with desperate
| force, for the weapon plunged through
the heart. making II large wound In the
left ventrlcle, Had the murderer
studied a place to impiant fatal blow
he could not better have succeeded. The
Inquest was held at the residence OF
Demarko's brother-in-law. with whom
the murdered man and his wife and
| child lived. The house Is located near
the Patterson colllery OF the New York,
! Ontario and Western company, In
| Blakely borough. about a mile and a
quarter from the scene of the murder.
Inquest This Evening.
After the post mortem, Coroner Kel-
ley decided not to hear any testimony
until this evening at o'clock. at the
court house. when all of the witnesses
will be in attendance. Mrs. Demarko
is almost crazed with grief by the tra-
gic death of her husband. and her rela-
tives have tried in vain to console her.
Nicholas Demarko brother of the
dead man, who was so desperately
wounded in the encounter, was, by
o.der of Coroner Kelley. removed to the
county jail yesterday afternoon from
the house of Angelo Car2into, where
he has been since the battle. In charge
of officers of Wlnton borough. Physi-
clans who examined him at the Jail
last night say he will recover.
FaScon Payretto, John Corello. Dom
removed from the station house yes
terday and placed in the county Jail.
1t is probable that Mrs. Carzinto will
be also locked up as a witness, but it
has not been done as yet.
Two Arrests Yesterday.
Sunday night IT was supposed that
there were only eight men in the house
at the time Of the battle but Dominick
Dernao yesterday gave the information
that there We're ten. Michael Rich and
Joseph Laruss being the ones OF whom
nothing was heretofore known. They
were arrested BY County Detective Lev
shon. and after spending few hours
in the Blakely borough lookup, were
taken to the county Jail. Rich says
that he knows nothing about the fight.
that he ran out of the back door as
soon as the trouble began.
Laruss admits that he remained in
the house where the trouble occurred
and saw Pascon Parretto run upstairs
ana get his stiletto and come down and
enter into the thick of the fight with It.
This story is corroborative of what
Dernao told County Detective Leyshon
yesterday through an interpreter He
says that he saw Parretto go upstairs
and get his etiletto and come down and
enter the fight. Dernao also says that
Parretto brought down with him re-
volver, which he gave to Charles War.
der.
Four Witnesses Agree.
That makes cur witnesses who agree
that Parretto mad stiletto and used
it. They are Angelo Caszinto. John Co.
relic. Dominick Dernao and Joseph La
rllss.
Charles Warder, who used the revol-
Yer, and Peter Parette are still at large.
Parette does not appear to have had
any hand in the fight but the authori-
ties are very anxious to find Warder.
There Is little doubt that Pascon Par
retto Is the murderer. but Warder seems
to have lent him great assistance DUR
ing the conflict.
Warder was seen at Peckville about |
$50 yesterday morning by Officer Poole
He ran as soon as he espled the officer, |
and when last seen was making for the
Ridge, at Archibald. County Detective
