DOUBT STORY
THAT WOMAN
SHOT CONLEY

Mrs. Gannarino Safardino, wife Of
the Italian who is charged with hav-
ing murdered John Conley at
Chrome, Friday night, 1t was learn
ed this morning, says that she shot
him because he insulted her on the
porch of the house in back of which
the shooting occurred.
Safardino, too, says that his wife
shot Conley, but their story has been
given little credence as the wife of
the murdered man witnessed the
deed and says that the Italian was
the one who shot her husband.
There are also other reasons why
the story of the Italians wife is
doubted and Safardino himself is be-
lieved to be the guilty one. AS was
told in the NEWS, Policeman Dono-
van, of Roosevelt, arrested the Ital-
ian and his wife on Smith street,
near Florida Grove, Saturday morn
ing and took them at once to the
county jail.
Mrs. Safardino is in a delicate
condition at the Jail, and last night
required medical attendance. From
Friday night until their arrest Sat
urday morning the couple were to-
gether and, 1t is believed, made up
the story between them.
County Detective Frank Hoffman
was at work on the case yesterday
and spent the afternoon in Roose-
welt, obtaining evidence. This morn
Ing Constable James F. O'Brien, of
this city, went to Chrome to take
into custody Mrs. Conley, Mrs. Hill
ton and a man as witnesses in the
case.
At the last meeting of the grand
jury they adjourned to meet again
on April 8, at which time the case
will probably be heard.
Mrs. Conley, wife of the murdered
man, saw the shooting and Is the
most important witness in the case.
1t is said that there was, however,
another witness, who will probably
be arrested.

DOGS ENJOINED FROM BARKING.
Justice Issues Order ON Complaint
of Taxidermists Neighbours.

Justice Issues Order on Complaint
of TaXidermist's Neighbours.
Justice Brady of the supreme court
of New York has issued, an order
restraining two dogs owned by Will
liam w. Hart, a taxidermist, from
barking between the hours of $3.50
O'Clock p. m. and s o'clock a. M
The offending CANNES against whose
noises several neighbors complained
are not the stuffed specimens in the
taXidermist's shop.
When the case came up before Jus
tice Blanchard on a motion to abate
the nuisance Hart explained that the
two dogs served as models in his
business and were well-behaved ami
mails. The noise, he said, came from
the other dogs in the yards of the
neighborhOOd. Justice Blanchard
dismissed the complaint.
Hart did not appear in court to
answer the second effort to muzzle
the dogs at night, so Justice Brady
issued the order by default.

MOUNTAIN FALLS IN QUAKE
Emitted Smoke and Collapsed With
ThunderOus Roar.

numerous Roar.
Reports received concerning the
earthquake in central Japan Satur-
day afternoon show that there were
a number of fatalities and that great
damage was done to property. The
dead at present is said to be thirty,
though it is feared that the fatali-
ties will be greatly increased when
the outlying districts are heard from.
The number of persons injured is
eighty-two. Thus far 1862 buildings,
including many temples, are reported
to have been destroyed and more
than 1000 others badly damaged.
The shock affected a wide area in
the Shiga and Gifu procedures. The
town of Ozaka, in Gifu, suffered ter
rlbly. The banks of the Hida river
there broke and the surrounding
country was inundated The people
of the district fed to high ground
and remained in the open all night.
Intermittent shocks were felt
Saturday night and early Sunday
morning.
The mountain Ibuki, a short dis
lance west of Gifu, emitted smoke
in the early stages of the earthquake
and then collapsed with a thunder
Gus roar. The formation of the
mountain was completely changed.
Slight damage was done at Nago-
va, to the southwark or Gifu, and

ATLANTA BLACKS OFF TO ARMY.
Receptions Given Black Regiments in
East Prove Very AIIuring.

SSO AOhC bNIJ AIIlIluSs
The male negro population of At
lanta has been decimated, and the
owners of drug stores, soda fount-
aims, near beer saloons and messen-
ger agencies are loudly denouncing
the United States army.
For a number of years negroes
have not been enlisted because the
two negro regiments had their full
quota of men. But the Tenth caval-
ry has just returned from a three
year tour of duty in the Philippines
and many terms of enlistment are ex-
piring. To fill the ranks the negroes
are being enlisted again.
The enthusiastic reception given
the black regiment upon it's arrival in
New York recently has been the one
topic among the southern blacks, and
they are all delighted because the ne
gro troopers were treated like white
folks" Consequently the recruiting
officers had no trouble in getting
black soldiers, and Vover a hundred
were shipped to Columbus, Ohio.
"Messengers?" said the manager
of a local concern, "why, we haven't
any. Those that did not enlist are
celebrating the departure of their
friends"
