KILLED IN AMBUSH
IN MURDERER'S FIELD
WEALTHY ITALIAN LURED TO
HIS DEATH
Victim Makes Desperate Defense and
Nearly Emptes Magazine Re-
voIver Before He Meets
Fate
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Ambushed in
a lonely spot known as "Murderers'
field" on the Lincoln road in the Flat
bush section Of Brooklyn, late last night
Pietro Barilla, a well to do hotel keep
err of Woodhaven, was attacked and
killed by number of men. Barilla is
thought to have gone to the place to
keep an appointment. as a letter was
found on his person seemingly written
in blood.
Barilla rode to the scene on a bicycle
and carried magazine revolver, which
he nearly emptied in a desperate de-
fense.
Persons near by heard shots, and
rushing to the place saw men flee from
the field. Barilla was found dead with
four stab wounds in his breast and
back and two bullet wounds.
The slayers were evidently frightened
away before they had an opportunity
to rob the victim, If that was their
motive, as a large roll of bills and a
gold watch were left. Antonio Delmar-
to. a cousin Of Barilla, Is held awaiting
an investigation. From several let
ters found in the dead mans pockets
II seems certain that Barilla was a
victim of a Black Hand plot. The po-
lice assert that the same band that
hacked and hewed a man to pieces sew
eral months ago and dumped the dis
membered body, wrapped up in oilcloth,
near the scene Of last nights killing,
is responsible for Barilla's death.

WINNIPEG, Aug. ia quarter of a
million dollars was paid today to the

The total number of strike breakers

A Pullman coach of transconti-
mental Canadian Pacific express train

TO RAISE FUND
FOR DEMOCRATS
BY INDIVIDUALS
EACH STATE TO Determine
ITS OWN METHOD
BRYAN APPROVES PLANS OF
CHAIRMAN MACK
Legitimate Expenses for Conducting
Presidential Campaign Variously
Estimated Between $5oo,ooo
and 100000
BY Associated Press.

by Associated RreSS
CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-The Democratic
national campaign fund of 1908 will be
raised through appeals made to the In
dividuals for contributions. Each state
under the direction of it's national COM
mitteemen or financial representative
designated for the purpose will de-
termine it's own method OF raising
money. The ground plan became
known here today on the arrival or
Chairman Mack from Lincoln, Neb.,
and it is understood to have met the
entire approval of William ]. Bryan.
John w. Kern, vice presidential can
didate, and members of the campaign
text book committee accompanied
Mr.. Mack to this city. Mr.. Kern left
today for his home in Indianapolis.
The financial committee, of which
Col. Moses s. Wetmore of st. Louis is
chairman, agrees that between $500,00O
and 81 100000 will be required to finance
the legitimate expenditures of the COM
ing presidential struggle.
The adoption of the plan announced
to raise money by states is believed to
be a solution of the problem. The con-
tributions to the various financial rep
resentatives in the states will be made
up of small donations.
The national committee has COM
municated with committeeman in sew
eral states and instructed them to pro-
ceed Immediately with the collection of
funds and to this end has suggested
That a financial representative be ap-
pointed in each state with assistants in
each county.

INVITATIONS FALL
THICK ON COMM0NER
Farmers Present Candidate with a
Gourd Labeled "BilIy's Big Stick"
Exact Counterpart of Fa-
nous Caricature
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
FAIRVIEW, Lincoln, Neb., Aug. Is.
Invitations to visit various sections
of the country and deliver speeches
came thick and fast today upon VII
liam ]. Bryan. California's request Tor
a visit again was pressed upon him
by Charles Edelman OF San Francisco
with the result that the Democratic
candidate is giving the matter serious
consideration.
Through Henry C. Clayton and R. H:
Walker, Montgomery, Ala, expressed
it's desire for his presence August 10.
Mr.. Bryan said he hoped that after
a conference with the national COM
rnittee he might be able to go to Mont
gomery, and possibly some other
points in the southern states in re-
sponse to numerous invitations.
A notable incident Of the day was
the presentation to Mr.. Bryan by sew
eral hundred farmers from Otis coun-
ty. Nebraska, of a big stick" gourd,
grown in that county. 1t is about five
feet in length and easily might be
taken for the original il there ever
was one, which has been so extensive
ly caricatured. 1t bore the inscription:
''Billy's Big Stick" painted in large
black letters.
Mr.. Bryan, although expressing his
thanks for the gift, declared if he
was elected to the presidency the
"big stick" would not be welded,
rather relying on his ability to lead
people through their love than to con-
troll them through their fears.
Chairman Clayton upon leaving the
Bryan home expressed himself in a
statement given out for publication as
having been delighted with the large
and enthusiastic attendance of people
at the notification exercises.
The statement referred to the SIM
plicity of the home life of Mr.. Bryan
and speaking of the dinner to the noti-
fication committee Mr.. Clayton said:
1--WE had a real good American home
cooked dinner. There was no pretense
of a menu, but am glad to say we
had a plenty of good home victuals
and mighty good water"
