HADROBERDEAUATIP?
Sensational Charges at Galveston
Against Winners Of the Cup.
PROMISED TO REFUND CASH PRIZE
General Sentiment that Mortons
Honestly Won First Place.
CADETS AT NEW ORLEANS
SPEC ial From a Staff Correspondent.

Special From a Staff Correspondent
NEW ORLEANS, La, July "a rather
sensational statement was made openly
yesterday at Galveston. 1t was to the ef-
feet that the winning company, the Gov
ernor's Guard of Austin, received the cup,
but not the cash prize of 5000 at San An
torrio. The drill association lost thousands
of dollars Oh the enterprise, and, SO the
Galveston story has it, the Governors
Guard were awarded the cup, with the un-
derstanding that the 5000 check should
be returned.
Serious Charge Against ROberdeau.
1t is avowed in Galveston with emphasis,
and what is declared to be without fear OF
successful contradiction that several days
before his company appeared before the
Judges Capt. Roberdeau received direct
tip as to the nature of the alleged difficult
feature in the program. The Galveston
folks seemed to believe that the whole at
fair was cut and dried, and they said with
evident sincerity that the Morton CADETS
were deliberately robbed OF hrst prize ana
the championship. 1t was said, ana re-
iterated all along during drill week that
the cup would not leave the state Of Texas
All the visiting companies were thoroughly
disgusted with the award and with their
treatment while in Camp Culberson.
GINu 10 IItuNe SAhp
At previous drills the Morton Cadets ex-
perienced a lingering desire to remain Inc
feeling was diametrically reversed at San
Antonio At Galveston and several other
towns along the route the Mortons have
been greeted with "Hurrah for the cham
plon company" 1t seems to be generally
considered that the San Antonio award was
to say the least a little off color. The Sealy
Rifles frankly admitted that the Mortons
easily won the cup.
The Mortons breakfasted this morning in
New Orleans on the return trip from San
Antonio. If all goes well the boys will
dine at Mobile and partake Of late sup
per at Atlanta.
Trip to Galveston.
By far the most enjoyable feature of the
trip was the visit yesterday afternoon to
Galveston. During the stay of less than
two hours in the island city the Washing
ton boys were taken in hand by the Sealy
Rifles and treated more than royalty. They
were dined at the armory of their late
rivals, given trip around the city on a
special car, and last, but not least, granted
an opportunity for a dip in the Gulf OF
Mexico The bath was thoroughly appre-
ciated Given an invitation to remain, and
with rousing cheers fer the Sealys, repeated
three times three, the Mortons returned to
Houston and resumed the homeward jour-
ney.

SUFFERED DEATH PENALTY
Pasquelle Dadario Hanged at Philadelphia
This Morning.
Execution Was Very Successful and
Passed OF SmOothly-Crime for
Which He Suffered.

PHILADELPHIA, July 27.-Pasquelle
Dadario was hanged in the county Jail this
morning. The drop fell at IO:0Sia o'clock.
The physicians stated that Dadario's neck
was broken in the fall, and that death was
instantaneous. The execution was success
full in every detail, and was wholly devoid
of unusual incident.
The condemned man walked from his cell
through the Jail corridor to the scaffod,
with an Italian priest at each side. He had
nothing TO say to those about him, and his
dull intellect seemed not to grasp the terri
BILE situation. q. n 4,
Walked without Support.
He walked unsupported up the steps lead
ing to the scaffold platform, and, without
a word being spoken, the black cap was
placed over his head, the rope was ad-
iusted about his neck, the trap platform
was dropped from under him, and within
two and a half minutes from the time the
murderer left his cell his body was dan
Cling In the air, and all was over. There
was noticeable twitching of the body
and the physicians stated that the Heart
beat for about fifteen minutes, but that
this was merely the result of muscular ac-
ton. They said life left the body almost
Immediately after the fall of the trap.
Crime Was Most Brutal.
DdudIIO CRIME was one OF the most
brutal and shocking in police annals of
this city. On the morning of January %
1897, the body of Modestino Moffo aged
three years, was found frozen stiff in an
alley in the rear of SO Emeline street
Much mystery surrounded the case, but
finally the little body identified by Mr..
MOTTO as that of his child, who had been
missing from home fer two days The
father informed the police that Dalario
had visited his house two nights before the
discovery of the body and had taken the
child out for a walk, under the pretense
of buying it candy. Dadario's arrest fol
lowed, and, after a brief trial, he was
| convicted of the child's murder. The de-
tails revealed by the evidence given at the
trial were most revolving The brute had
taken the little fellow into an unoccupied
house and there committed a fieudish as
sault upon him. Then, after strangling
the child TO death he threw the body from
the roof of the house into the alley, where
1t was subsequently found.
Parties All Italians.
All the parties involved were Italians
Dadario was unable to speak word Of
| English, and was apparently not Of sufh
| cient intelligence to realize the enorlnity
| of his terrible crime. At the trial he en-
| tered general denial of his guilt.

JUDGE COOLEY BREAKS DOWN,
Has Been in Failing Health, for Past
Six Years.


Six Years.
ANN ARBOR, Mich, July 27.-Judge
Thomas NJ. Cooley has been taken to
sanitarium located at Flint, Mich
Judge Cooley's breakdown can be said to
date from the time he resigned from the
interstate commerce commission in 1891
When connected with the commission he
plunged deeply into the intricacies of rail-
road and commercial affairs with an ardor
which, while it gave him wider, If not
more enduring. name, could not help but
tell upon his constitution already impaired
by age and overwork.
Judge Cooley is seventy-three years of
age, and was elected to three terms in the
Michigan supreme court. He also published
many text books and revised and edited
those of other authors. There is but little
hope of his recovery, his mind having al
most entirely left him. Still at times he is
perfectly rational and speaks of his in
trinity.

HAYNE SCORES DEUPREY.
More Caustic Compliments Over
the Suit of Parrot Against

A Motion for a Continuance Leads to
More Bitterness Between 0ppOs-

Eugene Deuprey is execution proof, ac-
cording TO Duncan Hayne, who spoke his
mind about the afore aid barrister yester-
day before Judge Daingerfield. 1t was the
same case of Abbie NJ. Parrott against
George Lezinsky and E. n. Deuprey,

He bitterly opposed the granting of the
motion, for he said the case was need
ieved the motion was not made in good
faith, but was for the purpose OF delaying
matters while the defendants could in
the meantime remain IN their fine Offices
and pay no rent. He said they would not
pay rent and would not move and he
thought the suit TO oust them should
come to as spec dy a trial as possible.
He submitted an affidavit containing in
brief what ne had pleaded to in court, and
LeElnSky also submitted atfidavits.

Notwithstanding the financial success
which attended the entertainment given
bv the Olympic Club Ministries last Nom
day night the performers regret that they

ties were questioned, but that while they

stole property valued at several hundred
dollars.
