Noted Bandit Shares Is Reward
Offered For His Own
Head.
HE HAD HIS DOUBLE KILLED
Then Caused the Body to Be Found and
Identified as disbursement Paid
$1,000 For Corpse of
Wrong Man.

1t requires an unusual amount OF
nerve to plan the death Of man who
resembles you, have his body identified
and collect a reward Of $1,000 for the
body. Yet that is exactly what Cor
neliO FeliZardO, the notorious outlaw Of
Cavite, T. l., who was killed recently,
did.
The true facts surrounding the death
of the renegade are just coming to
light and go to make one of the most
grewsOme tales ever penned.
Several months ago the cOnStabulary
reported that they had succeeded in
pursuing FeliZardo so closely that he
jumped over a high cliff to escape cap
ture and that the body when taken to
Bacoor, his home, had been positively
identified as that of the bandit by his
mother and most intimate friends.
According to a report, it transpires
that the man did not jump over the
cliff at all. He was murdered by or
der of the real Felizardo, who had the
body placed under the cliff and then
caused it to be found and identified as
his own.
A reward Of $1,000 was paid for this
bogus body, and it has now come to
light that a goodly share of this small
fortune found its way into the Golfers
of the man who for ten years terrorized
the provinces of Cavite and Batangas.
Recently the newspapers have told
how the bandit was killed by two
scouts, BernardinO CarpiO and Gregg
rio Buendia, whom FeliZardo sup
posed to be deserters, but it has not
been told that Carpio was his own
cousin, the son of his mothers brother
They persuaded FeliZardo to attack
Camp HaysOn. explaining that it would
be easy for him to get the men of that
garrison and all their guns.
Felizardo fell in with the plan and
with Buendia and Carpio started out to
explore the position. FeliZardo did not
take with him any Of his faithful fol
lowers, but went alone with the two
plOtters to his death.
The three men went within 1000 me-
ters of Camp Hayson when Felizardo
stopped for a moment under mango
tree to rest, and as he squatted down
on the ground both soldiers, as if i'm

guns at him and pulled the triggers
But Feiizardos time to die had not
quite come, and the cartridges both
failed 20 explode
In this act the terrible tragedy be-
gan. The man who had terrorized
Cavite and Batangas for years, who
had defed the United States, who had
snapped his fingers at all law, realized
for the first time that he was in the
hands OF traitors, men who were with
him for but one purpose, to kill him.
Felizardo sprang to his feet and grab

near bis head
The TWO men realized that they must
net quickly. They threw down their
guns Like bloodthirsty beast Of
prey Ruendia sprang on the neck Of
Felizardo, while Carpio snatched the

and thrust it into his stomach three
times. He did not use great force for
fear the blade would penetrate the
body and wound his companion, who
was struggling with the man whose
life they sought.
FeliZardo fought like a lion at bay
For ten minutes he waged the struggle
against such odds, with his life's blood
squirting in jets from the wounds In
his stomach. His foot slipped, and he
fell. At that moment Carpio struck
him a blow that all but severed his
head from the body. He died imme
diately. The body was brought to Ma.
Mia and identified beyond question.

Pardon for Mat,aok

The application for a pardon for Albert
r. Matlack, one of the two men who were
convicted in connection with the shellpot
district Regular Republican primary
election frauds, and sentenced to one
years imprisonment in the County Work
house, should receive no encouragement
at the hands of the Board of Pardons, ex-
cept upon one very important considera-
tion.
The offence for which these men were
convicted was a heinous one. Their trial
was fair and impartial Their jurors
we're judges OF the General Sessions Court
men learned in the law and skilled In the
analysis and application of evidence. The
judgment Of the court was deliberate,
and unaffected by any extraneous in
fluences. No interference with the course
of justice in such a case, therefore, should
be countenanced, except on the ground
Of public policy and the public good.
1t is the belief Of many that these con-
victed men were merely the agents Of
conspirators higher up, who deserve pun
ishment even more than they. The ends
Of justice will not be entirely satisfied
until these higher conspirators also are
made to pay the penalty of their crimes
1t may be that Matlack and his companion
are able TO furnish the evidence which will
send these more culpable criminals to
keep them company, or take their places
If Matlack or his companion is willing
10 render this service, an application for
pardon as measure Of compensation
might be considered in justice and fair
ness. Otherwise it should have no stand

When the Party lash FaIls.

The resolution offered in the Senate by
Senator Patterson Of Colorado, in protest
against the coercion of votes through the
influence Of party caucus, is worrying the
administration Senators. Al first they
were delighted with it, as il promised to
open the door by which "White House
Democrats in the Senate could march to
the support Of the President in the matter
OF the Santo Domingo Treaty, but being
sort of double-acting affair, it lashes
out in both directions, and torments as
well as pleases them.
"That for any Senator to vote except
as his judgment and sense Of duty under
his oath of Office require" Senator Pat
terson's resolution reads, ais to degrade
the high Office of Senator and to assail the
dignity and standing of the Senate Of the
United States"
No doubt Of Il. But does not the same
structure apply to the House Of Repre-
sentatives ? And yet only recently the
whole power Of the administration, from
President Roosevelt down, combined with
the arbitrary services Of the Speaker Of
the House of Representatives, was en-
ployed for the purpose Of dragooning
members Of the House into support of the
Statehood and Railroad Rates bills.
The party lash and the party caucus
are equally Objectionable and arbitrary
when employed as agencies for coercing
members of a legislative body into voting
against their judgment and conscience.
After all, there is more of solemn warn
ing than Of partisan encouragement to
the Republican members Of the Senate
in Senator Patterson's anti-caucus reso-
luton.

SOME interesting statistics. taken from
the annual report of the Capital Traction
Co. Of Washington, d. C.. tend to show
how prone are people who travel ON trolley
ears to contribute TO accidents by their
own carelessness, particularly by an un-
seemly haste in getting on or off the cars.
The statistics classify 403 accidents
which happened during the year OF this
number, 139 were due to persons leaving
the car while it was in motion, and rs
were due to people attempting to board
moving cars. Here we have total of
2l7 out Of 4O3 accidents, or more than so
per cent, which were clearly avoidable;
that is, they might not have occurred had
the victims adopted the very reasonable
precaution of waiting until the cars came
to full stop before they attempted to
get on or off.
Passengers who fell from moving cars
numbered 46, but without a knowledge
of all the facts it is not possible TO say
whether there was any contrbutory negli-
gence in these mishaps. OF other acci-
dents, 30 were due to collisions with
pedestrians and eight to collisions with
vehicles, and in these, also, a knowledge
Of the facts is necessary to the placing of
responsibility.
On the other hand, Is accidents were
due to the cars starting while persons
were alighting, and six to the cars starting
while persons were getting on accidents
wherein the negligence Of the company
would appear 10 be clearly established.
Collisions with other cars caused 81 acci-
dents, and for these, Of course, the pas
sengers were in nowise responsible. The
latter are also relieved Of all response
bility for the other accidents.
This showing is quite interesting, from
It's bearing upon the question of RESPONSE
bility. It should be a warning to trolley
riders, also.
