PLACED
ON TRIAL TO-DAY
Accused of Attacking Fellow
Countryman with Intent
of Killing Him.

Following a plea or not guilty made
by Salvatore De Gianni. an Italian.
who is charged with assault and bat
terry with intent to kin Gaetano Ciane,
also an Italian, by attempting to sever
his fread from his body by the skill
full use Of razor, on the night of
October Is, his trial was started be-
fore the petit jury of the Wayne cir
cult court today. The defense of the
accused was not divulged. His at
torney indicated by the questions
which he put to the jury that there
was more Of defense for the Italian
than has been published.
Those who were examined for jury
service who had read the accounts OF
the fight were questioned carefully
changed by the evidence No one ad-
mitted that he would not decide the
case according to the law and evi-
dence. Four who were examined for
jury service were excused, two by the
prosecution and two by the defense.
Prosecuting Attorney. Charles Ladd
presented the States side of the case.
1t was in sum and substance that Sa,-
vatore De Gianni, accompanied by his
brother Joseph, visited an italian
boarding house on North Fourteenth
street on the night Of October 16
They demanded beer. They were re-
fused and the prosecuting witness
called to the Giannis' that he would
take them home. When he came out,
the prosecuting attorney said the evi-
dence which the State would intro
duec would show that Joseph Gianni,
who is a minor. hit Ciane over the
head with beer bottle. laying him
out. and that Salvatore Gianni then
cut him with the razor on the left
side OF the head about the temple
and on the left side of the meet Each
cut was about five inches in length
and very deep. 1t was remarkable
that the injuries did not prove fatal.
The prosecuting witness is in court
and seemed to have recovered from
his wounds
1t is understood that the defense
admits guilt of assault and battery
but denies the allegation OF intent
As the witnesses in the case do not
understand or speak English well. it
was necessary that an interpreter be
employed. C. Culotto, young and
seemingly wen educated Italian, was
sworn in by the Judge. He is a fruit
dealer here.
Wilfred Jessup represents the de-
fendant while Ciane has ngaged
Henry u. johnson to assist in the
prosecution. Mr.. Johnson is conduct
ing an examination OF witnesses. The
iurymen include Forest Vansant, Hem

liam Plummer. CharlesA Bond, Alvin
Threewits. Walter Simpson, Arthur "A.
Cheesman. Lewis n. Schepman. John

interpreter it is thought the case win
require two days for trial.

Chief Ambassador Healing,
in Washington, Suggests
that that Faction Be Given
all Patronage.
HE TRIED IN VAIN
TO SEE PRESIDENT
But Taft Was Too Busy on
His Message, However Big
Chief Hitchcock Listened
to the Frame-up.
palladium Specially

Washington, Nov 29.-Joseph B.
Healing left for Indianapolis last night
after several days spent in Washing
ton in an effort to bring President
Taft and his political advisers to the
conclusion that the way to restore
Republican harmony and promote Re-
publican success in Indiana is to turn
the federal patronage over to ex-Sen-
ator Hemenway, Healing and other
factors in the old state organization.
Hemenway is still here. He is wait
ing to see Senators Crane and Aid
rich and Chairman Mckinley of the
Republican congressional committee
in furtherance of this plan. Healing
made a second unsuccessful attempt
yesterday to see President Taft, but
the president is still at work on his
message. But he and Hemenway saw
Postmaster General Hitchcock and
other advisers of President Taft.
Healing and Hemenway desire to
name successor to H. c. Petit as
marshal.
One Thing After Another.
In time they expect to control the
surveyorship at Indianapolis and the
U. S. attorneyship. Under the prece-
dents that have prevailed in other
states the chief responsibility for
making recommendations should now
fall to Harry S. New, the national
committeeman, there being no Repub-
lican senators, and next in order to
Chairman Lee and Representative
Crumpacker. the sole Republican con-
gressman. A plan has been put up to
Hitchcock by Healing and Hemenway
! for the appointment of referees, one
| for the Fairbanks-H s-Hemenway-N
element and one from the ''insurgent'
faction, but "Joe" and "Jim' would
like to name the insurgent. This is
the ely in the ointment" to the Bev-
eridge people. The proposed thar.
mony" program is not likely to rouse
an immediate response from the
White House. President Taft intim
ates that Senator Beveridge will still
be recognized until he is no longer a
senator. That over, Harry New may
be consulted, as national committee
man, following the precedents. But
Hitchcock does not like New and New
does not like practical politics any
more. Some of the presidents Indi
ana friends have pointed out to him
that there is no more justification fol
making Healing and Hemenway and
men of their faction referees than
there is to confer such power on any
one or more of other prominent Re
publican in Indiana.

PECULIAR MURDER
CASE To BE TRIED
Attempt to Solve Mystery Of
! Death of Young Man
Aboard Circus Train.
(Amerlcan News Service)

Lexington, s. c., Nov. 29.-Remark-
able for the large number of defend
ants is the so-called "circus murder
case," to be tried at a special term Of
the Lexington county court which con-
vened today. In all nearly score
of men, including a number of ne
groes. are to be tried on the charge of
having murdered Paul A. Williams
early on the morning of Oct. last.
The alleged murder of young Will
liams, who was a freight clerk employ
ed at Columbia and a man of good
reputation, occurred on a circus train
while the circus was on it's way from
Columbia to Augusta. On the night
of the tragedy, following a perform
ance of the circus in Columbia that
day, Williams and a companion, J. C..
Weekley, boarded the circus train with
the intention of riding to Augusta.
According to the story subsequently
told by Weekley the two young men
slowed themselves away beneath some
canvas on one of the circus wagons.
When a short distance on their jour
ney Weekdays attention was attracted
to loud and angry conversation and
saw part of the circus crew coming to-
ward the car on which the young men
rode. He crawled beneath the wagon
and hid. at the same time calling to
Williams to do likewise. A few mo-
ments later he heard the men swear
ing overhead and also a demand for
money. Then shot was fired. Too
frightened to move, young Weekley
remained hidden until daylight when
he emerged from cover and looked for
his friend. All that he found was a
watch fob which had been worn by
Williams and splotcnes of blood on
the circus wagon and the car
Early on the morning following the
tragedy the mutilated body of Will
liams, with a revolver shot through his
breast, was found alongside the rail-
road track near Lexington. When
Weekley's story was told the authori-
ties at Augusta were notified by tele-
graph and they took sixteen men of
the circus crew into custody. The men
were returned to Lexington and held
for trial on the charge of murder. Sew
eral of these alleged to have been
concerned in the murder escaped ar
rest at Augusta. but were subsequent.
ly captured in other parts of the coun-
try and returned here.
