Confessed the Murder,

There passed through this city over the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad yesterday
afternoon an Italian, Alexandra Ciaramel-
10, who has confessed murder for which
another Italian is under sentence of death
In Now York city. The man WINS arrested
by the Baltimore police during the morn.
ing and upon being questioned regarding
the murder made confession In which
he admitted he had killed Natalo Brogno
last Septic mber
For this crime Angelo Carboni was SEN
fenced to death last month and Is now
awaiting the electric chair In Sing Sing.
The sentence of death was to have been
carried out ON February, but the
arrest of Clara,nello and his confession
will probably save CarDon, who has all
along protested his innocence of the crime.

California Heirs Of Orlando D. Had
sell Of Chicago Pool Issues to
Contest His Last
Codicil.
Special pigpatcn to The can.

CHICAGO Nov. 1.-THE heirs of Or
lando D. HadseIl, several of whom live
at Reedley, Fresno County, Cal, pro-
pose to contest the will by which the
eccentric old pawnbroker devised his
estate in trust for 100 girl waits of this
city for 100 years, at the end of that
time to be divided equally between 1000
waits of both sexes who may then be
chosen as final benefciaries.
The will was filed to-day and Is a
unique document. After making sun
dry small requests to relatives as keep
sakes he explains why he leaves the
property to the unfortunate poor, con-
Guiding thus:
Every moment of my life I have been
firm believer in Christian religion, and
knowing now my earthly pilgrimage is
vii nigh run I will and bequeath to the
poor and lowly of Gods children, except
ing only a few remembrance to some
of my kind friends and kindred. There
fore, request that all of my estate be
put and kept in secure and interest earn
p r always and ever keeping Well Sc

panics, and all changes and investments
to be made only on the counsel and ad-
vice of my herein named trustees, as De-
low, all income Gall interests and rents
nett from said estate to be appropriated

have three charitable loving persons Sc
Iect from wallis and destitute children
of the city. 100 girls at IL years of age
Gas near as may be, KNOWN and apply
all of said income to the purchase OF good,
substantial clothing for each one OF the
100 girls, to share alike in dividend, but
none of the waits to be selected but one
year.
At the end of 100 years the bequest
is to be converted into cash and di-
vided equally between 1000 waits OF
both sexes, the money to be deposited
in bank for them until they reach the
age of 81 The trustees Of the First
Methodist Church are made trustees OF
the fund.
The natural heirs, who have pooled
their interests, are as follows: Homer
A. HadseIl raisin grower, Reedley, Cal,
who is in the city to fight the requests;
Sidney F. Hadsell, Reedley, Cal, a
brother; Frederick Hadsell, Reedley,
| Cal, a nephew, and number Of 9TH

POSTOFFICE PEOPLE
BANQUET Mr.. LOUD
GAVE ROYAL FAREWELL TO THE
CoNGRESSMAN-E ELECT.
Good Meat, Good Wine and Good
Story Make Merry an Evening
at Marchand's.

"a few of his postal friends as the
menu had it, entertained Hon. Eugene f.
Loud, Congressman that was-and is-at
a banquet last evening at Marchand's 8.
There were just eleven who sat to table
and they made as jolly party as ever
foreswore politics and grosser things for
the delights of good viands.
1t was a farewell dinner to the Con-
gressman-elect. During his administra-
ton as chairman of the Congressional
postal committee, Mr.. Loud won the sin
cere friendship and admiration of every
hard worked poStoffice official in the land
by his consistent policy and numerous
reforms in the system. Out here on the
to nearly all of the postal people the re-
suits of his good work were particularly
noticeable, and 1t was to do him honor
that Postmaster Montague and a number
of his co-workers invited him to the head
of the bright, fower-deeked table made
ready for them last evening at Mar
chands.
1t was essentially an informal affair
with lots of good eating and drinking and
stories. Politics was tabooed; there We're
no explanations of how 1t happened to
the Democrats, and Congress itself was
mentioned but once, and that when a
hearty toast was drunk to the continued
success and brilliant career of the re-
turning member.

made a deliberate attempt to ruin
Crank and had failed. Woodland was
a close personal friend of Crank and
was intimately acquainted with the af-
fairs of the Los Angeles Electric Rail
road. When Mitchell wrote his letter
Dick Mcdonald was deeply concerned
to learn every fact in connection with
the road, and Mitchell told him at that
time that he did not believe Sherman
was acting honestly in his administra-
letter that will follow is very long
one, but is of vital importance in cor

trapped the Pacific Bank into sup

effort be made by the robbed deposit
tors to gain some of their money that
went into the Electric road this letter
of Mitchell's will be extremely valua-
