THE ITALIAN LYNcHINe CASE.
President Mckinley Recommend an Ap-
prOpriatiOn For the Victims, Heirs.


Washington, May 4.-President Nc
kinley has sent to congress a message
concerning the lynching of three Ital-
ians at Hahnville, La. ON the night of
Aug. 8, 1896, named Salvatore Arena,
Giuseppe Venturella and Lorenzo So
laridino. He recommends an appropri-
alton for the heirs of the persons with
out admitting the liability of the United
States in the premises. The message
Is accompanied by papers from the sec-
retary of state. He reviews the events
when the lynching occurred.
The agent of rhe state department
who was sent to Louisiana reported
that one of the men, Solaridino, had re-
sided in Louisiana u years and had
voted; Arena five years and had made
a declaration of his intention of be-
coming a citizen, and Venturella, three
years, also had been a voter.
Mr.. Sherman says the Italian embas-
sador promptly informed this govern
ment that the lynched men were Ital-
ian subjects and entitled to the protec-
tion of the king of Italy.
The governor of Louisiana has not
been able to present proof that the men
lynched had actually voted, though it
was believed they had. He says the
case was similar to the lynching in
New Orleans in 1891.
Without acknowledging the legal liza
bilities. of persons lynched, congress
had appropriated money for the indem-
nifty of persons so lynched. The secre-
tary recommends that $4,000 be appro-
priated to be distributed by the Italian
government among the heirs of the
persons

SUED THE COMMISSIONER.
Action Commenced Against State Official
For Interfering With Private Business.

ActlOn commenced Against STATE Onlclat
For Interfering With Private Business.
Charleston, May A suit has been
begun here in the United States court
which may seriously affect the dispen-
sary law Of South Carolina. The suit
is brought by w. A. Vandercook & Co.
of California against Dispensary Com
missioner Vance and all constables or
state officials acting under the dispen-
sary law, and a perpetual injunction is
asked by the company prohibiting them
from interfering with the business of
the company which may be transacted
with its South Carolina patrons.
The action is the result of the recent
seizure of a carload of wine shipped by
Vandercook & Co. to Mr.. ]. c. Sim
monds of this city. Mr.. Simmonds is
the cashier of the First National bank
of Charleston, and while all the liquor
was consigned to him it was intended
for a number of other private citizens.
These persons were to receive orders
from Mr.. Simmonds for their respective
shares of the carload of wine. deposit
ing at the same time in the bank the
purchase money, subject to the order
of Vandercook & Co. Shortly after the
arrival of the liquor it was seized by
the constables and sent to Columbia.
The bill as filed asks for $1,000 dam
ages. Judge Simmonton appointed May
l. as the day for argument on the case.

Chicago, May 4.-The body of Frank
lin D. Gurley, who died about ten days

mine the cause of death. Nothing Of a
suspicious character was discovered,

unanimous opinion that heart disease
had caused death. Previous to her Sc

occurred about two years ago, Mrs.
Gurley had been married three times,
all her former husbands being dead.
