uments individually and explained
them.

conclusion he draws from the dossier.

tened with close attention TO Gen. Cha

approached Alderman Bridges and said:
"Say, jim, I've done favors for you. Here
are couple OF men who want to bc made

Alderman Bridges looked at the slip and
replied

ton, and in less than ten minutes the

THE ITALIAN LYNcHINGS.
Marquis Romano Declares Three out
OF the Five Killed AT Tai
IuInh Were Innocent.

Washington, Aug. 0.--Marquis Ca
milo de Romano's report on the lynch
ing of five Italians recently at Tallulah,
La, differs materially from those made
by United States officials The mar
quis, who Is secretary of the Italian
embassy here, has made a personal in
vestigation OF the affair, forwarded his
report TO his superiors, and is now en-
route to Washington himself from the
scene OF what is characterized as an
unusual atrocity without the mitigat-
ing circumstances urged in previous
affairs of the kind" Marquis Romano's
report has been received by the state
department from the Italian officials
here. IL has also been forwarded to
the Italian foreign Office. Serious al
legations are made, and these may
cause some complications before the
matter is dropped. The lynching OF the
five men, the marquis says, was the
work OF three separate acts by the
Tallulah mob. Two OF the men were
lynched after an alteration with DIR.
Hodges; then TWO others, who were far
from the scene at the time and knew
nothing about the alteration, were
dragged from Jail and lynched, and
finally their companion, similarly ig-
norant, was taken from Jail 10 meat
