EIS IDENTITY COIETE
Prisoner at the' Bar Is Creieozo Mer
olo Without Doubt
AS SELF-POSSESSED AS IYER
One Witness Gave Testimony fB Prove
That Joseph Salvi Paid Money to
Merolo Es-Labor Leader James
O'Uolieraa. Is Called to Testify.
When the testimony of one or two re
maining: witnesses shall be heard tins
morning-, that will end the common
wealth's evidence In the Merolo murder
trial. A strong chain of testimony has
been, forged and the defense will uo
something' remarkable If It is ouse..
Despite the fact that the prisoner's
identification is as complete as if he
confessed It himself, yet he sits at tue
defendant's table with ns cureless a de
meanor as it is possible to Imagine.
He has the look of a lazy.shittless fel
low to whom it would not be heavy pun
ishment to confine him in prison for i.fe
as long- as he had nothing to do. He
sits most of the time In court in a lnzy
posture and does not look worried in
the least. The defense has not many
witnesses.
Caosare Amerlco was the first witness
called yesterday morning. He knew
Merolo well and identified him positive
ly. Rosurio Palermo was the next. He
knew Merolo for two years ovfore the
murder and recognized the prisoner as
Merolo. He saw the murder and said
it was Merolo who did It.
O'tiolleran on the Stand.
James O'HoUeran. who was-once at
the pinnacle of greatness wnen tue
II In urn' union was a tnlng of glory.was
the third witness. Mr. O'Holleran has
made his home In Old Forge the p'ast
three years. . He knew Merolo and saw
him twenty-five or thirty times before
the crime. He was not acquainted with
him, but he knew him from seeing him.
He identified the prisoner as the man.
Antonio Craeco went on the stand and
swore the murderer, who is the prison
er, boarded with him six months and be
ought to know him.
Mrs. Joseph Balvl was next sworn.
Her husband Is 111 and cannot come to
court, otherwise he would be a witness.
The Salvia are accused ot assisting -er-
olo to escape and Salvl was arrested at
the instance of County Detective Ley-
shon as an accessory before the fact.
Mrs. Salvi identified tne prisoner as
Merolo. Herself and husband went to
Italy In July, ISM, but not because they
were accused of complicity in the mur
der. By the death of a relative a leg
acy was left and they went over to get
it.
Prisoner Is the Right Man.
Lulgi Scallone, who was well ac
quainted with Merolo, said tne prisoner
Is the right man. Mrs. Maria Bianco
positively identified the prisoner. Sue
knew him eeven or eight months. An
tonlo CoBtanzo was president of the
Guards of Rome of Old Forge in 1S94,
Merolo was a member and was a regu
lar attendant at the meetings. The
witness positively Identified the pria
oner. The district attorney and Attor
ney Martin had a lively tilt at this
point. Mr. Jones threw out the innu
endo that the defendant's counsel needs
balance wheel and Mr. Martin said
what Mr. Jones doesn't know would mi
a public library.
Charles Breig, living In Old Forge,
swore that he knew the prisoner at
the bar. He was called Frank as a
nickname. Merolo threatened to shoot
the witness' father: that's the reason
his recollection is so good. Brelg is a
one armed boy.
Ex-Sheriff John J. Fahey was called.
He was sheriff the time the murder
was committed and very soon after
the deed was done he drove to Old
Forge. He reached there a few hours
after the man had been killed. The
murderer was not to be found. He
heard that the man was in hiding at
the Sibley and went over there. John
J. Oaffney, deputy sheriff then, was de
tailed to watch the trains at Scran
ton. John J. Shea,' the county detec
tive then, was on another trial.
Scorched for Mini In New York.
Mr. Fahey was told by Salvatore
Bianco that Merolo escaped to New
Tork, and was In hiding In a house on
Mulberry street. He went to the metro.
polls and had an Italian detailed by
the police to watch the street, but no
one answering Merolo's description
was found. Mr. Fahey was six weeks,
night and day, at work on the case,
but without success.
John J. Shea was called and he cor
roborated the testimony of the ex -sher
iff. Mrs. Annie Oraeco, with whom
Meolo boarded at Old Forge, when he
committed the crime that caused him
to flee, testified that the prisoner at the
bar and her ex-boari'er are one and
the same. He boarded with her four
months. -
Edward J. Fallon, one of those who
went to Boston to Identify Merolo, was
called. He repeated that the prisoner
was the one wanted. Mr. Fallon knew
him before he stained his hands with
Loro's blood. William Hazeltine, a
young man employed in the mines at
Old Forge, was in the habit of seeing
Merolo almost daily for months before
the murder. Mr. Jones asked him if
he could swear positively that the pris
oner is the right man, and he replied,
"Sure."
Identified fcv His Chnm.
Lewis Fennell, an Italian who speaks
English with a Cockney accent, -came
forward and established the prisoner's
identity. They used to chum together
and were close friends. He was sorry
to hear that Merolo got into trouble.
"Yes," he said, "that's him, that's my
freiv."
Frank Grelg-,. an Italian resident of
the Sibley, swore that on the evening
of the murder. Mornlo passed by his
house. The witness was acquainted
v-'" Mm and he Identified the prisoner
at the bar as the proper man. He gave
the startling testimony that an hour or
so after Merolo enme along, a man
whom the witness did not know came
to the Sibley and was sent to give the
murderer money to enable him to get
away from the authorities.
Grelg did not know the man who was
anxious to assist Merolo to escape from
the consequences of his crime. - The
murderer did not leave the Sibley, but
went In hiding there, - The witness de
nied that Merolo was sheltered In his
house. On cross-examination Mr.' Mar
tin asked him if he had not told Sheriff
Fahey the day after the murder that
he had not seen the murderer at all.
The witness said ha had not been asked
about Merolo by the sheriff. Asked
about how Merolo looked, the witness
said be appeared all excited and worked

Emanuel Loro, the murdered barber,
was related to aim by marriage. He
sent to Philadelphia and brought Loro
to Old Forge, peyttig his expenses. 1 The
day of the murder Joseph Salvl came to

not been on food terms with him owing
to the coming of Loro, who set up an
opposition barber shop to Salvl. When
Salvi came in the witness was taking a
nap. '
Salvl proposed that they engage In
a game of cards. They were playing
when several pistol shots rang out on
the air. Mrs. Salvl came to Balvatore's
house and told her husband that his
nephew had been shot. She did not
then say It was Loro. Salvatore went
out and saw for himself that it was bis
friend that had been killed.
The witness took it upon himself to
run down the murderer. He knows
from what he learned by Investigation
that $40 had been sent to Merolo to aid
him in getting away from Justice. A
man named Meretto Benlamlnno was
sent to New York to get track of the
murderer and the result was that the
faithless Benlamlnno betrayed the case
and gave the alarm to Merolo.
Employed as a rtcteeilte.
Salvatore on cross-examination ad
mitted that he had been employed as
detective by Daniel McSweeney of the
Barring & McSweeney agency. The
remuneration he was to get was tl a
day and expenses. He said he received
part of his pay and there Is some yet
due htm. He went to Boston and as
sisted In the capture ot Merolo. He
knew Merolo for several months in Old
Forge and positively Identified him.
Angelo Plloso was the star witness of
the day. His brother-in-law lived next
door to Joseph Salvl's house. The wit
ness on Thursday, June 14. 1894, was go
ing In the gate to his brother-in-law's
house about 7.30 In the evening and he
heard Joseph Salvi and Merolo talking
outside the former's house. Salvl said:
"When are you going to do that?"
"What do you mean?" asited Merolo.
"Why, that we were talking abou...
"Well.how much money will you give
me to do tho Job?" asked Merolo.
"I'll give you $:5," said Salvl.
Tho witness heard them bantering
about the price and finally Salvl agreed
to give Merolo $100. The latter said he
wanted half before the Job and tne
other half afterward. Salvl would not
agree to that. Ho promised to pay tne
entire sum when he earned It
Merolo said he could not do the Job
until he had some trouble with the man
and with that they parted. This con
versation was meant to show the prc-
mcdltaed and deliberate planning of
the murder In view of the evidence ad
duced to show that money had been
sent to Merolo to get away alter tne
shooting.
Detective MeSweenev's Testimony.
Daniel McSweeney, of the detective
agency, was the next witness. He told
an interesting story. The county com
missloners of this county employed the
agency a few days after the murder to
work on the case. There was no reward
to be gained. The detectives were
working for so much a day. June 25,
1894, was the date on which the agency
began to labor In ascertaining tne
whereabouts ot the murderer.
The agency began communicating
with the chiefs of police and detective
bureaus of the prominent cities of the
country. The description of the mur
derer and the main facts In the case
were made known to the Italian consul
After a time Merolo was located In
Avelllno, Italy. When the authorities
there wero almost ready to fetch him,
he dropped from sight. The next heard
of him was from Boston
The agency sent men to work on the
case and finally they arrested a man
alleged to be Merolo, the one now stand
ing trial for his life. He had to be prop
erly Identified before he could be ex
tradlted from Boston. The district at
torney offered In evidence a military
certificate; a scrap of paper with the
name Crezenzo Merolo written on It
and a constitution and by-laws of the
Guards of Rome, an Italian society of
Old Forge. These three were found
by Mr. McSweeney in a box or satchel
owned by Merolo, which he left after
him at the house of Mrs. Graeco, where
he boarded. The court sustained the
objection made by Mr. Martin to their
admission as evidence. It had not been
proved sufficiently that they belonged
to the defendant.
Mr. Martin's Dramstle Speech.
When the detective was turned over
to Mr. Martin for cross-examination,
questions were asked by the defend
ant's counsel whether Mr. McSweeney
knew anything about a Boston lawyer
who film-flammed Merolo out of S40,
all that was in his possession.
He was the victim of a bad lawyer,
and Mr. Martin strongly intimated that
there were many such.
"You would not do that, I suppose?"
queried District Attorney Jones.
"No, sir." excitedly replied Mr. Mar
tin, raising his light hand towards the
painted goddesses on the celling, "be
fore Heaven I would not?"
"I wouldn't trust you," retorted Mr.
Jones.
Judge Edwards rapped for order and
cautioned the lawyers to leave all per
sonalities out of the case. This only
brought Mr. Martin to his feet, who
began a vigorous protest against the
district attorney's language. .
"Your honor," said he, "iSink of tho
contemptuous and insulting remarks of
this man, saying he would not trust
me, and telling- it out before the thou
sand people here. I tell you this man
(pointing to Merolo) has trusted me
with his life."
Judge Edwards brought his gravel
down heavily, and after a time Mr.
Martin subsided.
Herman Barring, the other member ol
the agency, was put on the stand and
told substantially the same as what Mr.
McSweeney testified to.
The object of the district attorney In
having the papers found in Merolo's
SRtchel In Mrs. Graeco's house at Old
Forge, offered In evidence was to prove
tho prisoner's Identity still further. Sim
ilar papers to the ones found In the
satchel were found on Merolo's person
when he was arrested in Boston.
County Surveyor A. B. Dunning was
the last witness of the day. He identi
fied a map of the scene of the murder.
The tnuD was then submitted to the
Jury.

WLU TEED EXCUSES
Maay Clergymen Called at the Board
of Health Rooms.
MADE THEIR EXPLANATIONS
Geaeral Seatlmeat That the Board Shoald
famish Proper Bleaks Clergy,
me a Do Not Want to Be Coos
Belled to Carry Them About
Miss Deppen, assistant secretary of
the board of health, was kept busy yes
terday absolving clergymen who came
to make excuses for not having lived
up to the law requiring them to make
returns of marriages.
About half of the twenty-five who
were notified ot their neglect visited
the board's office during the day and
explained why they had omitted to re
port. They were excused from appear
ing before the board Friday as directed
to by the summons sent out on Tuesday.
Those who did not make their explana
tions yesterday or who do not do so
before the board meets will be com
pelled to appear before the board-or
undergo prosecution.
No pronounced opposition to the reg
ulation developed but the general senti
ment was that the board should furnish
the proper blanks without compelling
the clergymen to come after them. One
of the clergymen said it was beneath
the dignity of his office to cart pack
ages to and from the board ot health
rooms. The law on the subject Is very
strict and explicit. The act of assem
bly reads as follows:
What the Aet of Assembly Says.
Section 6. The ald board ot health shall
have Dower to create end maintain a com
plete and accurate system for the registra
tion or all murriages. birtns ana aeaini,
which may occur within the city, and to
compel obedience to the same upon tne
part of all physicians and other medical
practitioners, clergymen, magistrates, un

may properly be required. The board
shall make, and cause to be published, all
necessary rules and regulations for carry.

with whJch they are hereby Invested,
which rules and regulations shall have
the force of ordinances of the city, and
all penalties for the violation thereof, as
well as expenses necessarily Incurred in
carrying the same Into effect shall be re
coverable for the use of the city In the
same manner as penalties for the violation
of olty ordinances, subject to the like lim
itation as te the ameunt thereof.
Section 50 of the Rules and Regula
tions of the Board of Health unaer
which the prosecutions are contem
plated is appended;
Regnlstioa of the Board.
"It shall be the duty of every clergy
man or magistrate by or before whom any
marriage may 'be solemnised or contract
ed, to make a return of the same the first
week of each month, which shall give, as
near as can be ascertaines, the full name
of the husband, his occupation, plaee of
birth, residence and age, date of marriage,
name of wife previous to said marriage,
her age, and the color of the parties; anJ
every clergyman and magistrate shall lie
furnished with blank forms of such re
ports by applying at the secretary's of
fice." Opposition to the law manifested it
self In Philadelphia recently, but the
board of health succeeded in compell
ing its observance. Whether or not op
position will develop here remains to be
seen on Friday. It is very likely that
soma of the clergymen will object very
strenuously to having a hearing on that
day, as that is the day which they as a
rule devote to their sermons.

In the charges against the other three
defendants and were discharged.
The case of the commonwealth

Postal Telegraph company, was the
prosecutor. Attorney George M. .at
son represented the commonwealth

wire to Junkdealer Aronson, of Penn

AN EQUITY CASE HEARD.
DUpute Over Some Coal Land la tht
City of Carbondale.
One case In equity court was heard
yesterday in No. S room before Judge
Ounster. The Delaware and Hudsot
Canal and Rallroa company Is plalntlfl
and Messrs. Hughes c Watkins are the
defendants. Ex-Judge W. II. Jessut
and City Solicitor Torrey appeared for
the company, and for the defendants
ex-Judge W. Q. Ward and Attorney J.
Alton Davis were present.
In its bill of complaint the plalntlfl
sets forth that It Is the owner ot the
tract now in dispute, that its title
dates back since 1825. The tract con
tains four acres of coal; the top vein
is seventy-five feet from the surface
and Is two feet thick; the second Is
fifteen feet underneath the top, and
Is eight feet thick; the third Is three
feet below the second, and Is thw
feet thick. The entire tract contains
six acres and is situated in the city of
Carbondale.
Among the witnesses were many pio
neers, who toiled when this valley was
a wilderness. The company asks the
court to restrain William Watkins and
David Hughes from mining any coal
In this tract. Mrs. Mary Barrett, of
Carbondale, Is in possession of the tract
and she leased It to the defendants In
February, 1894. The lease wss for five
years. As soon as Hughes lb Watkins
began to make preparation to mine the
coal the Delaware and Hudson com
pany instituted proceedings in equity.
Mrs. Barrett, in her answer, claims
that those from whom she derives title
had been In possession of the land, In
cluding the surface for over sixty years.
In tho early thirties Alexander Mc
Donnell squatted on the tract and held
possession of it until twenty-five years
ago. Soon after his death Mrs. Bar
rett came Into possession of It One of
the witnesses sworn yesterday was
Daniel Farrell, 9 years old, who was
a driver in the mines in Carbondale
fifty-eight years ago. The company
tried to prove by him that when he
was working In the mines the company
was taking coal from the McDonnell
tract as the one In dispute is called.
Otherwltnesses were Alderman Thomp
son, of the Pioneer City, and Oscar
Freeman, of Green Ridge. Mr. Free
man was asked what year he left Car
bondale. "It was the year that Jimmy
Archbald get his arm broken on the
Pennsylvania railroad." The case will
go on for several days.

peared In the sky.
