ANTI. SCALPING BILL

Passed by the House by l19 to l0l-No
Amendments accepted.
WASHINGTON, December 1.-THE
House to-day passed the anti-ticket scalp
ing bill by vote of 1l9 to 101. This action
is the elimination of ten years strug-
gle on the part of the railroads to put an
end to the business of ticket scalping.
The interstate commerce commission first
called attention to the subject in it's re-
pert of 1888, and it has been before Con-
gress ever since in one form or another.
During the last session extensive hearings
were given both to the representatives of
the railroads and the scalpers. and Mr..
Sherman, of New York, secured ia
pledges for the measure. 1t was, how
ever deemed inadvisable to bring the
measure forward until the present ses-
sion. The debate to-day lasted four
hours and was spirited upon both sides.
None of the amendments offered were
adopted and the bill passed as reported by
the committee.

A MALTA AGENT.

SAN FRANCISCO, December Fran
cisco Di Franchi, who was shot dead by
Antonio Rosso after a saloon quarrel on
Sunday night, is said to have been an
agent of the Malta. 1t is said that Dom
enico Pari dreaded death at Di Franchi' s
hands. The latter had pursued him from
New Orleans to Chicago and thence here.
Pari left San Francisco last July before
Di Franchi arrived. He is in Chicago and
is expected back here, now that his enemy
is dead.
Di Franchi it is said, left San Francisco
eight years ago after serving sentence
for assault on woman. In New Orleans
he fought with Francisco Scantrino and
the latter shot him III ike leg. In New
Orleans Di Franchi figured, it is said, in
the 1fhaa murders which eliminated in
the killing of Chief of Police Hennessey
and the lynching of several Italians.
In Denver Di Franchi came in conflict
with the police and was expelled. He
then wandered to this city. where he met
his death.
