CAM0RR|STS JAILED
! FOR INSULTING
THE COURT
HEAD OF THE SOCIETY AND
LIEUTENANT SENTENCED TO
THREE MONTHS EACH.

Viterbo. Italy, Aug. 30.--Enrico Al
fano. the alleged head of the Camor-
rists. and Giuseppe Mlnichello, another
member of the camorra, now OH trial
for the murder of Gennaro Cuoccolo
and his wife, were condemned to three
months Imprisonment today for in
sulting Cavaliere Banchi, the presi-
dent of the court.
When the session was resumed this
morning the prisoners were again con-
fronted with the carabinier whose tes-
timony dealt with the finding of Cuoc-
colo's ring. Alfano and Minicheflo
took offense at the manner In which
the questions were put to the witness
and shouted that the judge was sug-
gesting his answer. They caused so
much confusion that the proceedings
We're interrupted.
| After the tumult had subsded the
public prosecutor demanded that AL
fano and Minichello be tried on the
charge of insulting the judge and they
were condemned to six months i'm.
prisonment. The excited state of tn,
prisoners. however induced the judge
to insist on the sentences being re.
duced to three months In each case.

I'VE made an investigation of the
fire on Tuesday and found that the
condition was rather serious. The
blaze Is In the valleys back of Sem
tinel and cannot be observed from the
city, but II Is pretty bad one and
n wind will take Il away from us in
no time. We left the post this MORN
ing at 5 o'clock and commenced work
on the fire as soon as we arrived at
the scene OF the blaze. We managed
to get II fairly well surrounded and TO
head 1t off from going into the mill
itary timber reserve. We have stopped
II from making any further headway
toward Bonner. However. | am afraid

siderable private property that Is be-
ing burned over. but | don't know

dition there ls liable to become dan

joyed an elaborate dinner and a fine
program OF speeches. recitations and
singing. The immense crowd was a
revelation and came as a surprise to
the boys In blue. but the crowd was

1oyed themselves. Practically every
body In this city possessing an auto
mobile or rig took advantage of the
barbeqre. getting away from the city
and at the same time participating In
the exercises in honor of the veterans.
The principal address OF the day
was delivered by Judge r. Lee Nc

patriotic lines. The. main thread of
thought running through his remarks
was the final binding together OF the
boys Of the blue and the gray, their
acceptance of one flag. one country
He dealt with the fundamental prin :
c'ples for which each fought and
showed how all differences had been
blotted out by time; how the veterans
of the two armies could gather to-
gether about campfire and exchange
stories with the best of feeling.

MORNING FIRE
DESTROYS FRAME SHOP

A large frame building, just at the
county bridge, west of the city. was
totally destroyed by fire that was
discovered about 4 o'clock this Thurs
day. morning. The fire was well un-
der way before it was discovered. and
the isolation Of the building made the
alarm late. The fire department could
do little more than turn the stream
of water onto the blazing building,
for the purpose of preventing the
flames from spreading to adjoining
property The firemen saved an au-
tomobile from the rear of the building.
The building was used as black
smith and wheelwright shop.

Chesterfield Courthouse, va, Aug.
So-Testimony corroborative Of the
story told by Henry Clay Beattie, Jr.,
that a bearded highwayman killed his
wife with a shotgun. was introduced
by the defense In the Beattie trial to-
day when w. r. Holland. who lives in
the vicinity OF the Midlothian turnpike,
where the murder occurred, declared
ne had seen bearded man with a
shotgun there about five hours before
the tragedy.
1t was the first move of the defense
after the prosecution rested its ease
at noon today to establish the verac-
ity OF the prisoner and besides Hol-
lands statement concerning a man
with a shotgun, Eugene Henshaw, a
farmer who travels the Midlothian
turnpike daily, testified that he saw a
strange looking man prowling around
on three different days before the
murder.
II Is reported tonight that the prose-
cution Is ready when its time for re-
buttal comes. to put on the stand the
man who passed along the railroad
tracks where Holland said he saw n
man with shotgun and that the new
witness will say he was squirrel hunt
ing that day.
Many Witnesses for the Defense.
The defense summoned many wit
nesses Besides the testimony re-
garding the bearded man. expert testi-
mony was introduced as to the bounc-
ing qualities of an automobile similar
to that driven by Beattie, thereby ac-
counting for the jolting out of the car
of the shotgun placed In a rear seat
by Beattie after the encounter with
the alleged highwayman.
The prosecution attacked this line OF
evidence on cross examination.
The idea of the prosecution has
been to indicate that Beattie himself
slowed down at the crossing and threw
the gun to one side on his way to the
owen home with his dead wife.
BeattIe's counsel attacked the declar-
alton of Sam Taliey that he heard on
the night of the murder shot and
the scream of woman on the
Midlothian turnpike. Several wit
nesses testified that the morning after
the murder when Beattie talked witt
Talley and others, nothing was sait
about woman screaming.
Everybody Laughs.
An amusing incident occurred whei
the defense put on the stand william
Pemberton, man OF As years, to at
tack the truthfuness and character o.
Talley. Pemberton's own mentalit
was questioned by Prosecutor Wen
