PERRETTO IS DESPERATE
Took Revolver from Hands of Attoroey
bat Pound Chambers Empty.
HE DOES NOT LIKE LEYSHON
ir It Were In His Power lie Would Un
doubtedly 'Try to Injure the County
Detective-Testimony Given by the
Witnesses for Commonwealth.
An exciting scene was enacted In
the main court room yesterday morning
which shows the desperate, vengeful
character of Pasquela 'Perretto, who Is
on trial -before Judge Archbald for the
murder of 'Michael Demarko at Jessup
on June 30 last. A revolver which Per
retto took from his room on the day
of the murder and gave to Charles
paiquello Paretto, tihe Murderer. ,
Wardo was lying on the common
wealths table, and Attorney Drown,
who la assisting in, the defense, picked
it top and then sat down near Perrptio
to examine it. The revolver was used
bv Wardo when he fhot Nicholas De-
farko and shot at John Corrello in the
skimlsh that preceded the murder.
It la a murderous looking weapon,
and when Pcrivtto's restless eyes rest
ed on U he recognized It as his and
snatching It from the hand of Attorney
Brown, snapped it open dui rouna tne
cartridges had been removed. He
brought the disconnected parts of the
weapon together with a 'bang, and,
bringing a glance full of hate to bear
on County Detective Leyshon. who sat
directly in front of him, hissed between
his set teeth. "Son of a ! Son of
a !"
Attorney Brown took the weapon
from 'Perretto without attracting much
attention, at the same time whispering:
"Don't act like that, Pasquela; its
wrong; you must not do It.".
He Was Thoroughly Enraged.
Perrotto was thoroughly enraged,
however, and his black, restless eyes
became blacker and imore restless than
ever. He grabbed a pen holder that lay
on the table much as he would a dirk
knife, and made passes In the direc
tion of iLeyshon, at the same thne re
peating the vile remark he had pre
viously directed against the county
detective. After this outbreak
Perretto quieted down and spent the
remainder of the day listening to the
testimony produced. He affects to treat
lightly the most damaging testimony
offered against him 'by the common
wealth, and smiles In a sarcastic way
Whenever a witness describes the man
ner In which 'he plunged the knife
into Demarko's heart.
From ipresent indications the trial
will certainly consume all of this week,
and If Attorney Martin persists in his
lengtihy and minute cross-examinations
It will probably run along Into next
week. Yesterday 'but six witnesses
were examined and the commonwealth
has at least ten more to call before It
will rest. Attorney Brown said last
evening that he was unable to ay at
that time how many witnesses the de
fense would call.
IMany tkmes during the day Judge
Archbald reminded Attorney Martin
that he was consuming the time of the
court by going over the same matter
on cross-examlnaitlon two or three
times, and that he would not allow him
to continue that practice. Mr. Martin
held that It was an important matter,
and as 'the life of the defendant, was
at stake and the witnesses were trying
to hide the truth he should be given
some latitude In their examination.
Joseph Lanrisso's Storv.
After, .the opening of court In the
morning Joseph Lautilrso again took
the fstahd and Te1atd the story of the
crime go far as known to him. He sa w
a Jong knife In PerrF.tito's -hand and
then started to leave the premises. As
he retreta'ted he heard two pistol phots.
Mldhael :Rlch testified to the origin of
the trouible, but left it he house as soon
as Charles Wardo ftred the first shot.
which was before Demarko was
stabbed.
Mrs. A'ngelo Camera to was next
fworn. She la a rather unpreposses-
nl-nr Iitalian woman, but Is said to have
been much admired both by Pa "quel a
Perretto and M'!chal Dcrtarko. It
was In the building In which herself
and buland conducted a boarding
house that the murder was committed.
Perretto eyed Jier savagely while she
was on the stand.
She said "that Milchael Demarko came
to Jier house on the mornlnig of the
murder to get her husband to shave
him.. IHe had brealtfaft wMh them and
then went out wWh 'her husband. They
remained away untM 2 p. m.,. when they
returned and obtamdd some beer, wblch
the three of them were drinking when
several other Italians came into the
house. More beer was sent for and
Charles Wardo, after a time, Insulted
John Orrello, and angry words fol
lowed. -Her husband told them either
to behave or leave the bouse, but the
quarrel did not end there, and Pasquale
Perretto ran upstairs.
Wardo Fired a Shot.
JVrretto came down very evon and
cai'l Charles IWardo aside. Directly
aftjvards Wardo fired a ho. WGt
nesstihen ran out of the house with her
baby, and after leaving ft In a place of
safety returned and foumd Mtehael De
marko d?d out&Vde of the house, with
blood issuing from his breast. .Perrnfto
was runntlmg down the ptreft. pursued
by her husband, who commanded blm
to stop, eaylng that be .had killed Mi
chael .Demarko.
On cross-examination Mrs. Cameroto
said that when he aw Demarko lying
dead outside her door yhe turned the
body over ami caw a kn4fe In the dead
man's right side. It was a pocket knife
and the point of the blade was broken
off. She did not see 'Demarko stab
Pasquale Perretto, but Peter Perretto
stabbed Pasquale ,tn t'he bead. When
Wardo discharged the revolver, Jie fired
at Nicholas Demarko, a brother of the
dead man. . . .
Nicholas) 'Demarko,: brother of .'the
murdered man, iho was himself des
perately -wounded during the melee,
next took the witness stand. Peter Per
retto, tie said, attacked John Corrello
wtth a knUfe, and when Pasquale Per
retto saw bis cousin draw the knife he
went upstairs and returned with a stil
etto and revolver.
Gave Revolver to WnrdoT
Pasquale gave the revolver to Wardo,
who fired at witness, striking him In
the upper part of tlie eight arm. Peter
Perretto- - then attacked Wlm a.nd
slashed him on the breast and shoulder
wit the knife. Leaving then, Pasquale
Perretito rushed over to witnesses'
brother, Michael, and plunged his kn'.fe
Into his heart. The witnem showed
much excitement when on the stand,
and told Ms story with many gestures.
CM cross-examination Attorney Mar
tin endeavored to wring from the wit
ness the admission that fPeter Perretto
stabbed Michael Demarko, but the wit
ness resolutely maintained that Peter
did not cut M'lcbael and that the fatal
blow was struck by Pasquale Perretto.
The-' witness strenuously denied that
those who were In the house at the time
of the murder agreed to place the
blame of t he deed.on Pasquela Perretto.
as the rest of the party would go free
In that event.
John Corrello swore that he was In
the house of Cameroto at the time of
the murder and saw the deed commit
ted. When he arrived at the house,
there were five men there and they told
him that he would have to send out for
beer, 'lie handed 10 cents to Wardo to
get the beer and began to talk to
iMlchael Rich. Wardo Insulted him and
he stood up and asked him why he did
that.
Pctar Perretto I'sed His Knlfo.
Angelo Cameroto, the boarding boss,
told him to sit down and ho would put
them out of the house. Then Peter
Perretto drew hla knife and Pasquela
Perretto went upstairs and got his knife
and revolver. He gave the revolver to
Wardo and struck witness on the
shoulder with his knife. Wardo also
tired at witness, hut the latter dodged
and the bullet did not strike him.
Perretto then Ugan to brandish the
weapon about his hen! and moved to
ward the door, where he met Michael
Demarko and struck him with his knife.
Ptfrretto then ran away anJ was fol
lowed by Angelo Cameroto. No one
had Injured Perretto or said anything
to him prior to the time he went up
stairs and secured his knife and re
volver. Corrello's cross-examination
was completed before court adjourned
for the day.
In his cross-examinations. IMr. Martin
endeavored to draw from the witnesses
that they were all rioting in the house
on the day of the murcief and that a con
spiracy had been formed among the
witnesses to place the blame for the
murder on the defendant. None of the
witnesses would admit, however, that
such was the case.

The board of revision and appeals
election last night resulted as was fore
cast In . yesterday's Tribune. The
three Republican candidate's, W. J.
Thomas, 11. T. Fellows and Joseph Oli
ver, and two Democrats, J. J. .Manley
and J. K. Began, were the choice of the
convention. James F. Nooiie was the
ot her caucus nominee of the Democrats.
There were two Independent candi
dates, P. J. Illckey, Democrat, and Kd
ward F. Wensel, Republican, but Mr.
Wenzel withdrew Just before the elec
tion and left but seven candidates In
the field.
When Mr. Westpfahl, who was chosen
to preside at the Joint session, rapped
the meeting to order, It was found that

there were absent Robert Robinson and
R. E. Thomas and Daniel Battle

lect. With Mr. Uiftus, the Independent,
voting the straight Democratic ticket,
this left the Republicans in the minori
ty by a vote of 19 to 17.
Itwas easily possible to elect the three
Democrats, hut Mr. Hickey's candidacy
prevented this. .He took four Demo
cratic and one Republican vote, and
thereby killed Noone's chances.
No Nominating speeches Made.
Nominations were made as follows:
Reagan, by Nealls; 'Hickey, by Swee
ney; Noone, by Zeldlcr; Oliver, by Sea
mans; iManley, by Clarke; Fellows, by
Wagner; Thomas, by Williams. Strange
to say, no speeches were made.
