LYNCHING OF THE ITALIANS.
REPORT OF THE INvEsTIGA ALTON
MADE ny MARQUIS ROMANO.
One of Unusual Atrocity and
without Proyocation.

Washington, August S.--The state de-
partment has received from the Italian au-
thorities copy of the complete report
made by Marquis Romano secretary of the
Italian embassy here, OF his personal inves-
tigation of the recent lynching OF i've
Italians al Tallulah. La. The report pre-
sents the AFFAIR in a serious light. AS a
matter of the lynching as one of unusual
atrocity and without the mitigating cir
cumstances which had been urged in pre-
vlous affairs of this kind
In describing the first ARRAY which led
up 10 the lynching. Marquis Romano's re-
port states that Dr. Hodges was the first
to draw his weapon, and that not until
he had fired one shot and was about to FIRE
the second one at Charles Dlfata, who was
at that time PROSTATE on the ground, did
his brother, Joe Difata, fire his shotgun
from the store nearby. This last shot, 1t is
pointed out was in defense of the fallen
brother and was not a wanton attack on
DR.. Hodges. The circumstances leading
up 10 the ARRAY are described in detail.
According to this account, Charles Di-
fata was alone when DR.. Hodges passed.
There is no effort made in the report to
obscure the fact that Charles Dlfata made
the first offensive overture But 1t Is con-
tended that this was not accompanied by
the use of firearms. or even a movement
to draw them II is said, however, that
Charles Difata upbraided DR.. Hodges In
an offensive way for having killed an ami
NAL, and accompanied this by blow of

the fist Then, 1t is said DR.. Hodges shot
"a. Difata. Whether or not the shot took
effect 1t was not possible for the Italian
authorities to learn, as the bodies of the
men after being lynched We're dishgured
and disposed of But at all events IL is said
that Charles Difata was on the ground
following the shot by DR.. Hodges weapon.
At this point Joe Difata made his appear
ance and, seeing his brother down and n
second shot about to be fired, shot at DR..
Hodges.
Then followed the lynching of these two
Italians Joe Difata and Charles Difata.
The mob took them before they had been
arrested Up TO this point, according to
the Italian report, only these two Italians
had figured in the affair. The report goes
on TO state that throughout the occur
renee the three other Italians. Frank, Dl-
fata, Joseph Feducio and John Cerami,
were in another street and did not know
what was occurring. 1t Is aid that they
did not take part in the attack on DR..
Hodges and that they did not even know
OF II until some time after, when the local
officers came TO arrest them. This arrest
was accomplished and the three Italians
were actually placed In jail. The report
then brings out that the mob. having al
ready lynched Charles and Joe Difata,
turned their attention to the three ltal-
ians under arrest. Two of these men.
Joseph Feducio and Frank Difata, were
FIRST taken from the officers and lynched.
Subsequently and some little time after
ward, the mob returned and took John
Cerami and lynched him.
In this circumstantial way the report
brings out that the mob made three dis
tinct movements against the Italians and
there was sufficient time for the blood to
cool and for the anger OF the lynehers to
abate after they had disposed OF the first
two men. Particular Importance Is laid
upon this feature. for while II is said
there may have been some extenuating
circumstances In visiting such summary
punishment on those Immediately con-
cerned in the ARRAY with Dr.. Hodges, yet
the time elapsing before the second and
third lynchings Is regarded as an element
Of particular atrocity. The full report has
been forwarded to the Italian foreign Of
fee and copy OF it placed in the hands
OF the state department.
