.LUCCHEN| SEEN IN CELL:
SLAYER OF AUSTRIAN EMPRESS
CHEERFUL AND WELL. 30 -:

Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence OF The star
LONDON, July 10. 1910.
Harry De Windt, writing to the London,
Express from Geneva, says -
II have seen Louis Luccheni, who. q
few wears ago assasinated the Empress
of Austria on the Quai du Mont Blanc
at Geneva.
such conflicting reports have appeared
as to this wretched mans fate that the
actual conditions in which he has lived
since his conviction may come to many as
great surprise. Even here in Geneva
was told by some that Luccheni was
dead by others that he was still iinger-
ing. chained and a hopeless lunatic, in q .
dungeon many feet below ground.
For years only prison officials have
seen the man. but, as delegate to thee
Paris penal congress. l was permitted to
converse with him In the old prison !.
known as L'Eveche. and can state that
Luccheni has never been confined IN :
necessitated by his refractory conduct
while in prison. -
II found him as cheerful as cricket.
in a light. airy ward overlooking the
lake of Geneva. He was bookbinding
and chatting amicably with several other
convicts although the governor AFTER
ward told me that he has recently at
tempted to stab him with a murderouS
weapon secretly fashioned out of a sarg
dine tin. I.uccheni, who need not work
unless he feels SO disposed, is now thirty !.
wears old, a sailOW-faced. sturdy looking
little man. with dark restless eyes and a
perpetual and most sinister smile.
He looks and, as he told me. feels eYry
tremelv we'll having abundant diet a.,
mint of red wine and four cigarettes daily.
The crime that startled Europe was prob"
ABLY the outcome of a craving for not6-1
,iety for since his Incarceration LuesI
cheni has had no communication WHAT :
soyer with the outer world, which would
sea rcelv have been the case had he been
the agent of secret society. 40
.'He now constantly feigns insanity. bur
with poor success. for he is possessed uf .
more than average intelligence. and Is a
great reader. Montesauieu. Rousseau and =
Dickens being his favorite authors
II visited his cell (Which is twice al y
large as any I have seen elsewhere). AND, n
he has a comfortable bed and writing 81

light Swiss convicts adorn their cells
with prints and photographs. and the
walls of Lucchenis were covered with
pictorial postcards given to him by fell,
low prisoners.
.'They included portraits of severapi
crowned heads, notably those of tiles
reigning kings of England. Spain and !
Italy And / was astonished to find hers
not only framed postcard picture of %
the aged Emperor of Austria. but also
one of his late consort-the empress VIII N .
Luccheni killed. -
"These two latter had, of course. esq

WATERBURY, Conn.,, July 22.-By way

plosive he is manufacturing for Panama
canal work, is not susceptible to heat OF
ordinary methods of conclusion, w. Har-
court Palmer, an English engineer, yes
terday held a stick of it in his left hand
while with his right he fired a revolver
bullet through the stuff. Spectators,
crouching behind rocks, gasped, but moth

Palmer says carlsonite cannot be ex-

He asserts that a mule loaded with it fell
over a cliff at Panama and landed in a
group of workmen. but the only damage
done was by the mules hoofs.

ST. Stephens took one of the most IN
reresting games of the season from
Georgetown Yesterday by the score OF
TO 4. Up to the last inning it was
to T. when the West Enders won Out:
Mcdonald hit safely to left and scoreo
on two wild throws.
Callan the diminutive infielder of the
winners. was the star of the game he
hit safely four times out of the fve up,
and fielded the third bag in great styie.
He broke up a rally in TIE fifth inning
when he caught Burke at second on MS
quick throw Of Sellas' hot bounder
Mcdonald played his frst game with
ST. stephens and held down right neid IN
great style He hit safely three out OF
four times and his good base running In
the last inning brought in the winning
run, his second tally Of the game.
sellas caught Mahony's long fly in CEN
ter in the first inning and by a great peg
caught Callan at the plate.
McDonough made. nice play in the
ninth. when he covered first on Burkes
slow hit to Murphy. 1t pulled his team
out of quite a hole.
"Brickey' Burke held up Bromley in
sensational style. His stopping OF WHO
throws helped his battery mate great
deal.
.Skipke'' Mack, the Georgetown man
ager. announced his intention OF protest
ing Yesterdays game. He declared tnat
the contest could have been played the
regular nine innings.
Sullivan, at short for the winners,
played a strong game. His fast plays

teams in the league
Bresnahan on a recent scouting trip
picked up a young southpaw named
Zmich. who has already reported to the
Cardinals Bresnahan was so pleased
with the work of Salee that he declares
he will start his recruit against the
Giants this series
Charlie Comiskey has lust purchased a
couple of players from Wichita, Kan, at
fancy figure. He is said to have paid
$1,000 for Shortstop Roy Corhan and
Out1elder Tex Jones. The players will
not be delivered until after the close of
the Western League season.
The Giants will have to hustle to keep
ahead of the. Pirates. The worlds cham
pions are now less than one full game
behind McGraw. Pittsburg is getting
stronger all the time, and the Polo
Greunders right now appear a trine un-
certain.
Hal Chase may not be able to take part
In the series against the Tigers. The
Yankee captain was quite i'll from a heavy
cold yesterday, and was unable to visit
the park. Jack knight will hold down
first base in Peerless Halls absence
There are four or five worse first base
men in the league than knight. at that
New York Journal.
Chicago scored five runs Connie
Mack's club in four games. In each of
the first two innings OF the first game the
White Sox collected a tally off Coombs
From that time until the eighth inning
of yesterdays farewell Duffs men were
unable to score. In other words, the
Quaker pitchers shut out the WINDY city
aggregation for thirty-two consecutive
innings.
Tommy Leach. Hans Wagner and Fred
Clarke will put the Pirates out in front in
short order if they continue to hammer
the ball as they did against Brooklyn's
best pitchers yesterday. In the second
game Leach hit for a homer. There were
only three on the sacks at the time.
Pitcher Sallee may be a bad actor, but
he seems to be just right whenever the
Giants happen along, and yesterday he
shut them out 1t was costly time tor
the Giants to lose, for while the Carol
nails were trimming them their dearest
rivals were both taking home some bacon.
The Cubs put the Bostons to rout, and
the Pirates jumped on the B-ooklyns
twice. The Phillies overcame the m
cinnatis. Three of the five games were
ShutOutS.
The top score of the season in the
major leagues was made by the High
landers yesterday, when they made it
three out of four from the tailenders.
They scored nineteen runs. Up to yes
terday the Philadelphia Nationals had
the top score. eighteen runs against Pitts
burg. The Athletics came cropper at
last, the frail White SoX beating them,
Athletics any. The Bostons resumed win
ming, shutting out the Detroits. The
Washingtons treated the Clevelands
harshly, winning a one-si ed game.

ANG0RA 4 GOOD FIGHTER
KNOCKS OUT TARANTUIA IN
BATTLE ON SHIP.
Big Cat Disproves the Old Theory
That the Species Possesses
Yellow Streak.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Persian Angora
cats. according to fanciers, rarely gain
reputa TONS as fighters, and when one of
that breed reveals a high power pug
nacity in place of the expected yellow
streak it is worth noticing. That is
the opinion of Louis Larsen, chief mate
Of the Fagertun of the Atlantic Fruit
Company, which has just arrived from
Port Antonio.
Larsen had reference particularly to
Beauty, a big Persian Angora, which he
believes has lifted forever the charge of
cowardice from it's kind by knocking the
spots out of as vicious a tarantula as
ever sneaked aboard ship in bunch of
bananas. Beauty, it appears. took on the
the open deck, and laid him out cold in
six rounds.
Tarantula Sent SPRAYING.
1t is believed that the tarantula emerged
from bunch of overripe bananas brought
up from the hold. Beauty displayed an
immediate interest in the crawling thing,
which members of the crew assert meas
ured Ave inches from tip to tip Hostili-
ties began when the tarantula made a
quick pass for Beauty's nose. but the
cat side stepped and shot over its right
to its opponents 'midships with such
force as to send it sprawling.
There was much maneuvering for posi-
ton before the two clashed again, and
Beauty showed his wisdom by refusing to
clinch. Six times in all, so 1t is said,
Beauty sidestepped the venomous rushes.
but on the creatures sixth attempt turn
ed quickly and gave the tarantula solar
pleXus blow. Larsen counted the insect
out and swept him overheard before lie
could come to.
Beauty can bunk with me till he's too
old to come bac, the chief mate said,
as he rubbed his pets nose. He's stuck
by me since two years ago, when a Chi
nese gave him to me In Singapore. Twice
around the world and twelve trips to the
West Indies is his record, and he's good
for many another voyage"
