MURDERER CAUGHT IN
WAYNE COUNTY TUESDAY
TAKEN FROM CONDUCTOR SNY-
DER'S TRAIN AT ARIEL
JUNCTION.

Alfonso Giordano Confessed Killing
Pasquale ValvanO Near Nay Aug
Says Victim Insulted Him-Had
Big Blood-Covered Knife and New
Revolver in Possession-Was Go
ing to LackawaXen.
Because his victim, so he declares,
made insulting and disparaging re-
marks about his wife, Alfonso Gior-
dano plunged a stiletto deep into the
vitals of Pasquale Valvano, about
$3.50 o'clock Monday afternoon, and
Pasquale fell dead in his tracks.
The crime took place on the Erie
tracks just above Nay Aug tunnel,
where Valvano was at work as a sec
tion hand.
Alfonso was captured early Tues
day morning on an Erie train, just
after it left Elmhurst, and was
brought back to Scranton from Lake
Ariel, where he was taken off. Chas
Lockwood and Frank Skinner, en-
ployes of the Erie, were at the Elm
hurst station when Giordant walked
into the station and bought ticket
| for LackawaXen. Italian workers
! told Lockwood and Skinner who
Giordano was, and they boarded the
same train. They took him into GUS
tody as the train sped along, making
handkerchief do good service as
| handouts.
The prisoner was docile and sub
mitted to arrest without any trouble,
! but 3S-calibre revolver and long
bladed knife, both new, were taken
! from him.
Giordano and his captors were met
at the Erie station in Scranton by
superintendent of Police Day and
Guy Relph, sergeant of the Erie po-
lice.
He was taken to city hall, Scran-
ton, where he confessed to Day and
Relph that he had stabbed Valvano.
Then he was measured by the Ber-
tillon system and taken to a photo
grapher's to be photographed. AT
terward he was taken back to the
city hall station and locked up.
The police and detectives, sew
eral of the latter of whom had spent
Monday night securing the noun
tains and watching Giordanos home
in Dunmore, were much pleased over
the quick capture, for it saved them
lot of hard work.
Valvano was twenty-five years old
anu llNtu III DuuHOI6. OlOTuduO IL
twenty-five.
According to Vito Valvano, brother
Of the man who was slain, and who
was working a short distance away
at the time of the murder, the two
had not been very friendly for some
tiwe, though they both came here 6
couple of years ago from the same
town in Italy.
Vito was near his brother wher
Giordano came along, and the two
began to quarrel. Vito says that HI
went to nearby spring to get {
drink, and returned in ten minutes
When he came back, he saw Alfonso
lying on the ground writhing in pail
and Giordano running through tn,
woods in the direction of Dunmore

BUSY TOWN GOOD ADVER-
TISEMENT

A town whose industries are busy
is a good advertisement for that
town or city. In Honesdale the fac
tories are humming from morning
until night and the demand for help
is great. Employers and companies
are advertising for male and female
help and could use 100 hands now
if it were possible to secure them.
Since the article appeared in The
Citizen last week the secretary Of the
Greater Honesdale Board of Trade
has received a number of inquiries
for help. This not only demonstrates
that number of people outside of
Honesdale desire positions, but that
The Citizen is a good advertising g
medium.

WHERE HONESDALE'S
TAMNIANY HALL is SITUATED.

"Say, you," said Luke Levy, the
man who wants to see you" to Cit
izen man yesterday, "do you know
where Honesdale's Tammany Hall
is situated?" The newspaperman
was obliged to confess his ignorance.
Then Mr.. Levy pointed to three trees
and the corner of the Foster build
ing, and said that the equilateral
rectangle thus indicated was the spot.
That is Honesdale's political centre,
according to Mr.. Levy. Right on
that spot more political plans have
been laid, more men nominated or
defeated and more wire-pulling done
than in any other part of the town.
Doubtless Mr.. Levy is right.

COURT HEARS EVIDENCE in
SHUMAN CASE

The hearing in the case of John
Shuman, of Seelyville, for a rule of
restraint upon his daughter, Louise,
II years of age, who is boarding at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel
Wadge on Church street, was heard
Monday afternoon before Judge
Searle at a session of argument
court.
Attorneys Iloff and Garratt OBJ
jected to the courts jurisdiction to
sit on the case, being Common Pleas
but the Court qualified to try the
case.
The testimony of both Mr.. and
Mrs. Shuman, parents of the girl,
was given first and they emphatical-
ly denied that they had driven their
daughter away from home or had
caused her to leave by i'll treatment
or otherwise.
Mrs. Wadge testified that Miss
Louise Shuman had been boarding
with her for some time and that she
could find nothing wrong with the
girls conduct. She went to church
and did not go out at night. She
stated that last Wednesday Mr.. and
Mrs. Shuman came to her house.
Louise Shuman was there at the
time and Mrs. Shuman had said that
if the girl wanted to stay she could
stay.
Miss Shuman stated on the stand
that she was seventeen years of age
and had left school two or three
years ago. She had worked at Bird
sails since last March. Some time
ago, she had left the home of her
parents because her mother had or
dered her never to put her face in
the door again. She left then and
went to board with Mrs. Wadge.
She also stated that she had been ill
| treated while at home.

BUSINESS MEN TURN
DOWN B. OF I. MERGER
At Regular Meeting Wednesday
Evening Consensus of Opinion
Was to Remain Separate
ORGANIZATIONS.

The proposition of merging the
Greater Honesdale Board of Trade
with the Honesdale Business Mems
Association was presented before the
members of the association by the
trustees at Wednesday evenings ses-
sion. The trustees reported their in
terview with the Board of Trade
committee and stated that commit
tees recommendation. President S.
7. Ham then asked for an opinion
from the members present. Owing
to the fact that the Business Mems
Association is a chartered institution
and working under the State Busi-
ness Mems Association, with which
is connected fire insurance, it was
thought best not to accept the rec
ommendation of the Board of Trade
committee. After reading the By
Laws of the association it was fear
ed that satisfactory arrangements
could not be made, hence the turning
down of the Board of Trade PROPOSE
ton.

The testimony IN the libel suit
brought BY roosevelt against the MI
chigan editor showed that Roosevelt
\ was sober in every country and every
climate. IS Notwithstanding the wide
D spread publicity Of the action and
known desire Of the defendant to
find someone who had seen the ex.
President under the influence Of in.
toxicatinE liquor, no such person
could be found. Mr.. Roosevelt state
ed that he occasionally drank small
quantities OF brandy, and frequently
drank glass Of light wine with his
dinner, but that he had never been
drunk, or even under the influence
of intoxicating liquors of any kind.
Ten witnesses OF good repute and all
persons OF ample means OF knowledge
corroborated Roosevelt's testimony,
and the efendant was forced to ad-
init that he had been misinformed and
had published an untruth when he
stated that Roosevelt was in the hab-
It OF getting drunk.
The American public, wihout re-
gard to party affiliations, will
rejoice over Teddy's vindication. It
would be disgrace to the country II
one OF its ex-presidents was drunk

THE SENATE INVESTIGATING
\ ITSELF.

President Wilson publicly protested
against the activity Of the lobby,
which is now attempting to influence
the action Of the Senate in reference
to the Underwood bill, and the SEN
ate decided to investigate itself.
Every Senator will be examined and
given an opportunity to state candid
" what he knows about the Tariff
Lobby. Thus far the senators who
have been examined frankly state
that they have been talked to by
many interested parties, but they
deny that the parties who have
sought to influence their action were
members OF what could be properly
called 4 lobby. They admit, however,
that few, Il any, Of these parties rep
resent the consumers OF the country.
That may he the feature Of present
day conditions at Washington which
the President desires to have en-
phasized by this Investigation. And
1t 10 limited that the president may
send some documents to the COMMITTEES
which win refresh the rscollections
Of some senator's.
