De Rudio served throughout the
Civil war and in the Indian campaigns
in the west. He was educated for his
chosen calling in the military school
Of Austria and was an aide on the
staff of Garibaldi before he had ar

age of 25 he was one of the nine chos-

the revolutionary coup planned against
the life of Napoleon III. in Paris on
June Is, 1853. His comrades were gull

the executioner when a messenger ar
rived with a royal pardon from the
hand of Empress Eugene herself, who
had been moved To clemency by the
intercession of Queen Victoria of Eng
land in answer to the pleadings of DE
Rudio's English wife.

Chicago, Nov. AT least II fatal
base ball accidents occurred during
the season of 1910 i'm addition to a
greater number of serious accidents
which did not result fatally.
Because of the wide distribution of
base balls popularity, the fact that It
can be played practically the year

try, and the hosts of boys and men
who take part i'm II nom professionally.
no list of fatalities can be compiled
with the same completeness as i'm the
more restricted field of foot ball.
While the number is small in view
of the hosts who play base ball and
the length Of the period during which
IL is played, there were enough fatal
ities to prove that base ball is no
child's play and that it is game of
some risk.

So Declares Colonel Brady, One of
the Four Officers Sent by
Government 10 Make
Investigation
WANTED TO BRING ON WAR
Deliveranee Of Cuba Aim of Plotters-
Man Who Caused Explosion
Was Joe ZavaIdo, Who Was
Later Executed.

Kansas City, Nov. 2.-Lecturing at
st. Georges church here last night,
Colonel Brady, one of the four officers
sent ~ the government 10 investigate
the destruction of the battleship
Maine i'm the Havana harbor, declar-
ed the mine which destroyed the bat
tleship was placed by Cubans in order
to bring war with Spain and deliver
ance to Cuba.
Brady said the Maine was anchored
over mine prepared by Cubans and
that 1t was fired from Moro Castle by
Jose Zavaldo. an electrician, who was
later executed by order of General
Blanco. Brady further asserted the
information had been sent to the pres
ident and secretary of war.
When l went TO investigate the dis
aster with three other officers" Brady
said, there were three theories con-
oerning the origin OF the disaster. that
the explosion was caused from the
outside agents of Spain, that it was
caused from the inside and that the
Maine was anchored over a mine pre-
pared 10y Cubans. We were able to in
form the president and secretary OF
war that the last theory was most con-
sstent with the facts. This lends to
the conclusion that the Maine was
blown up by Cubans i'm order TO bring
on war with Spain and the deliverance
OF Cuba"
Continuing he said: snow I'll tell
You for the first time the name OF the
man who blew up the Maine. He is OF
was Jose Zavaldo. He was an electri-
clan at Moro castle and it was he
who threw the switch which set OFF
the powerful mine that destroyed that
ship and sent 2O7 lives into eternity in
n flash.
'Zevaldo was afterwards shot by or
der of General Blanco. We even got
a piece of the cable that led from the
mine TO room i'm MORO castle. That
piece of cable is now i'm the navy de-
partment at Washington"
The former officer i'm his talk de-
scribed the condition of the Maine af-
ter the explosion and gave'reasons for
his statement that the ship was blown
up by mine. According 10 his state
ment the concrete false bottom Of the
vessel was blown TO pieces and par
ticles fell on the decks of ships an
chored near by.
