INSPECTOR GARY HERE.
He Isjtb Insurance Official Who
Figired Sa Proalneatiy la the .
Holmes Murder Case.
At the Hotel Jerrayn Is the man who
was behind the scenes In the famous
Holmes murder case and who was as
Instrumental In amassing the evidence
against the multi-murderer as was De
tective Geyer. He Is W. E. Gary, In
spector andadjustorforthe Fidelity Mu
tual Life Insurance company of Phila
delphia, Mr. Gary Is here on general
business for the company.
It was after the Fidelity company had
paid the $10,000 policy on Peltsel's death
that Inspector Gary advanced the the
ory of murder. Peltiel had then been
dead thirteen days and burled two days.
The Inspector was not In Philadelphia
at the time the body was found, nor did
he begin work on the case until about
two weeks later. After analysing the
few clues that were presented he traced
the route of Holmes' flight and ascer
tained much of his past record. He
then engaged Detective Geyer on the
case and the two worked together.
Mr. Gary says that twenty-two mur
ders are known to have bean committed
by Holmes, who resorted to killing In
order to get rid of the women and men
whom he had made his tools. He killed
them to save himself from the law and
not for the sake of Insurance money, as
Is generally supposed. This Is true In
Peltsel's case, he said. Peitsel was
Holmes' partner In crime and was be
ginning to weaken, so the latter put
his confederate out or the way and
made a play for the Insurance 'money
as a secondary object.
Concerning Holmes' newspaper con
fession that he had killed twenty-seven
persons, Mr. Gary said that five of the
twenty-seven had been found alive; the
others were undoubtedly murdered.
The five fictitious cases, said Mr. Gary,
were created by Holmes In the hope
that the truth would be discovered con
cerning them and then It would not be
believed that he had killed the other
twenty-two.
Mr. Gary .has with him copies of a
number of interesting documents con
nected with the case and photographs
of many of the principals.
VERY ENJOYABLE EVENT.
Excursion of the Teachers and
Scholars to Lake Ariel.
The first excursion of the teachers
and pupils of the public schools of
scranton ever held was run to Lake
Ariel Saturday, and In point of pleasure
It was successful beyond all expectation
of the promoters. Fourteen cars, con
taining about 1.501) people, bore the ex
cursionists to the lake. Later trains
brought several hundred more to the
scene of outing. At the lake a tine
programme of festivities was carried
out under the direction of the several
sub-committees.
The morning waB delightful In point
f weather although u high wind made
boating diflluult. A base ball game was
played between clubs from No. 14 pre
paratory school, of the West Hide, and
the school boys of the North End and
Green Ridge. No. 14 won by a score of
14 to 4. The West Side boys gave a
clever exhibition of playing. Harring
ton, pitcher, was the hero of the hour.
He allowed but one hit. M. J. Ketrlck
was umpire. Miss Mary McHale, of
No. 3 school, won the ladies boat race.
The prize was a guitar.
In the gentlemen's boat race Profes
sor David Owens, of No. 14 school, won

MURDERER MEROLO
NO LONGER DENIES
Aialtt lit h the Mas Who Kifled
Eataaael Lara.
ASSIONEO HIS WAOES TO MR. MARTIN
When lie Left Old Forge Two Years
Age There W as aa Assoaat ef S14.40
Dae Uim trass Jerasya Ce.He
Premises to Make a Confession the
Par Before lie Is Executed.
All doubts can now be dispelled con
cerning the Identity of Murderer Cre
senso Merolo, now In the county Jail un
der sentence of death to be hanged on
Wednesday. July 1, for the killing of
Emanuel Loro, of Old Forge, on Sunday,
June 17. 1394. The prisoner tuts admit
ted that he Is Merolo by signing an or
der in favor of John T. Martin for the
money he had earned in Jermyn No. 1
shaft, Old Forge, which he had not been
able to get on account of making his
eseape immediately after the murder.
The amount is $14.40 for wages In June,
1894.
Merolo has promised to make a com
plete confession the day before he is
hanged, and it remains to be seen
whether or not he will implicate Joseph
Salvl In the murder of Loro. When the
crime was commuted, Salvl was sus
pected of assisting tho murderer to es
cape; and even further than that, was
accused later of having through envy
planned the crime and secured Merolo
to do the Job for $200. Salvl was twice
arrested and brought before Al
derman Fuller by County Detec
tive Thomas Leyshon on the
charge of being an accessory, but
the evidence was Insufficient to send
the case to court. Salvl Is in Italy at
present out of reach of the law. He
went there a month ago, skipping away
front his wife and helping himself, as
she alleged, to her money and personal
property. Salvl and the dead man were
rival barbers, and the latter had more
customers, because he charged only five
cents tor a shave.
MEROLO ADMITS HIS IDENTITY.
When Merolo waa arrested In Boston
on Oct 11, 1896, he stoutly denied that he
was the man who" murdered Berber
Loro, and Insisted that he had never
been In Scranton, and at a preliminary
hearing before the alderman here, he
persisted in his denial and continued to
persist during the trial in court. Tho
time of his execution is not far distant
and realising that it Is useless to con
tinue lu his protestation of Innocence,
and In order to give Mr. Martin the
benefit of the money in Jermyn's office
for him, he wrote the following order:
Scranton, April 18, 1886.
Mr. Jermyn:
Pay to my attorney, John T. Martin, or
his order, the balance due me for work
done at your No. 1. My check was 77.
This will be your voucher and receipts.
Frank Msrolo.
Witness, John T. Martin.
Attorney Martin took the order to
Jermyn's office in Rendham and got the
money. Mr. Jermyn says that Merolo
applied for work and gave his name as
Crezenzo Merolo, but that In order to
make an easier name to write on the
books of the company It was put down
as Frank Merolo. John Oakley, the
miner with whom the condemed man
labored, testified on the trial that Frank
Merolo Is the name that he was called
In the mines and other witnesses swore
that among the English speaking peo
ple of Old Forge who knew him he was
always called Frank.
District Attorney John R. Jones con
ducted the trial for the commonwealth
with such thorougness and ability that
the Jury that heard the evidence was
out only fifty minutes when they ar
rived at a verdict of murder of the first
degree.
COLLECTING THE EVIDENCE.
It required a great deal of hard work
to collect the evidence and present it
clearly to the Jury. Mr. Jones met with
many difficulties In the way of unwilling
Witnesses. When the commonwealth's
case closed and the defence opened Mer
olo went upon the witness stand and
boldly asserted that was not Merolo
he said his name was Frank La Bracca,
and told a story of his life. When he
had finished and was turned over to Mr.
Jones for cross-examination, Mr. Jones
in a deliberate voice and with a wave
of his hand ordered him to come down
from the witness stand, saying that
he did not want to see him add perjury
to the crime of murder.
This remark was quoted by the de
fendant's counsel as one of the reasons
for a new trial, but at the argument
Mr. Jones by a lucid chain of reasoning
took up the thread of the evidence and
convinced the court that the remark
was Justified in view of the testimony
of over thirty witnesses who had pre
oeded Merolo on the stand and had
sworn that he was the right man.
The trial was begun on Dec 2, 1895.
Associated with Mr. Jones for the com
monwealth was Attorney John J. Mur
phy, a talented young member of the
bar. Merolo was represented by Attor
neys John T. Martin and Joseph U.
Brown. The case lasted four days, the
verdict being rendered on Thursday of
the same week. Reasons for a new trial
were filed and an argument was made.
NEW TRIAL REFUSED.
On Saturday, Jan. 25, 1896, Judge Ed
wards, who was on the bench during
the trial, handed down an opinion re
fusing a new trial and on the subse
quent Monday Merolo was brought to
court and was sentenced to denth. In
lintiOHlng sentence Judge Edward tMd
the prir oner that the verdict was abso
lutely Jiip' -any other verdlot would
have bn'a miscarriage of justice.
Merolo shivered and quailed, and for
the first time exhibited feigns uf far
and trembling. It Is safe to say that
no other man tried for murder in Lacka
wanna county demeaned himself with
such careless Indifference as he did.
Ir. cases of capital punishment the
law provides that if the Supreme court
Is appealed to, the appeal musit be
taken within twenty days aftor sen
tence of death has been pronounced.
So 1 uch appeal was taken and It was
then In order for the governor to appoint
the. date of execution. On March 27
last Governor Hastings signed the
death warrant and fixed May 28 as the
day of hanging. A week before tho
time, however, a respite was granted
and the date was fixed as Wednesday,
July 1.
The arrest of Merolo was a fine piece
of deteotive work by the Barring ft Hp
Sweeney agency. He had fled from the
country to Italy, but got no rest thero
and on May 11, 1895, he returned to New
Ycrk city. When the murderer teached
New York he was spotted, but managed
to lose himself from the detective.
They kept his trail, however, and pre
Tared a net for him by advertising lit
the Boston papers for Italian laborers
at $2 a day to work on a railroad. Ha
applied tor work and was caught The
warrant on which the arrest was ssade
was Issued la this city on Oct T. lkS5.

HUN'S BRUTAL ASSAULT.
Clubs as Elibt-Year-Old Boy Over the
Head with a Fence Picket is
a Terrible Way.
An eight-year-old son of A. Grauman,
of Capouse avenue, was murderously
assaulted by a drunken Hungarian at
o'clock last night
The little Grauman boy. In company
with a number of other children, threw
stones at the Hungarian as he was sit
ting in the rear of his house, which is
near the Grauman home. The Hun
garlan, In his drunken frenzy, tore a
picket from the fence, and catohlng the
Grauman boy brutally belabored htm
about the head and shoulders.
The boy's scalp was split open and
hsl back covered with the marks of the
club. But for the approach of some
neighbors, who saw the assault from a
distance, the child might have been
killed. As It Is he will be under the
doctor's care for some time to come.
After the lad was carried homo a
posse headed by Patrolman Walsh, who
had been hastily summoned, began a
search of the Hungarian tenements for
the assailant It was learned that he
had fled Into a certain house and the
place was searched from cellar to gar
ret. The culprit could not be found on the
first tour through the house, but In com
ing down stairs Patrolman Walsh came
across a small closet which had been
overlooked and, bursting In the bolted
door, discovered the fugitive hiding be
hind some clothing, which was hanging
from pegs on the wall. It was feared
that some violence might come to the
prisoner, so he was taken out the rear
way and hurried to the central station
house, where he spent the night In cell
2. He stretched out on the bunk and
was fast asleep In half an hour, little
troubled over the possible results of
his brutal assault.
While the boy Is painfully wounded
there are no tears of a fatal outcome.
Great indignation Is expressed in the
neighborhood and had the brute fallen
Into the hands of the neighbors before
the police officer arrived It would have
gone hard with him. Mr. Grauman and
several persons who witnessed the as
sault will appear against ill in, this
morning In police court.
FREE PRESS SILVER JUBILEE.
Great Edition to Celebrate Its
TwcutyAlth Annvieriary.
The jubilee number of the Sunday
Free Press, celebrating Its twenty-fifth
anniversary, was In great demand yes
terday. Editor Beamish promised that
It would be something exceptional and
the thousands who took him at his word
were not disappointed. Its twenty-four
pages, with illustrated cover, contained
some of the most Interesting reading
matter that has ever appeared In a
Scranton newspaper and remarkable as
Is the statement, the second-hand matter
was not the least Interesting by any
means. This second-hand matter con
sisted of items reprinted from the early
editions of the Free Press, and it Is safe
to say they were read with even greater
avidity than when they originally ap
peared a quarter of a century ago.
The front page of the cover contained
a reduced fac-slmlle of the first page of
the first Issue, printed on July 9, 1872,
which was also a noteworthy feature of
the jubilee edition. With the contribu
tions from former owners, editors, em
ployes and the llko, and the cuts and
sketches of prominent Scrantonians, the
edition was all In all a paper thut Its
aggressive young editor may well be
proud of.

Charged with Entering Cellars and

Residents of Pine Brook for some

Patrolman Walsh was put on the trail
of the fellow and last night scooped him
In.
At the station house he admitted that
he has been bumming about Pine Brook
since the circus showed here, but de

HELD A FETE ON
SPENCER'S HILL
Italians Revive a Custom Peculiar to
Their Couatry.
ENJOYED THEMSELVES HUGELY
OverOae ThonsaadofThesa Gathered
to Celebrate the Feast Day of St.
Anthony of Padaa ia a Way That
Reminded Them of Life in Benny
Italy.
Probably the most unique fete ever
held In this region took place on Spen
cer's hill, at Dunmore, yesterday. It
began at nightfall Saturday and con.
tinued until a similar hour last night.
The fete was conducted by the Ital
ians and Is a duplicate of similar fetes
held in Italy every year on the feast day
of St. Anthony of Padua. This Is the
first year that the custom has been ob
served here.
Saturday was the feast day of the
saint, but as nearly all of the heads of
families had to work the celebration
was postponed until yesterday. To
speak more properly it began Saturday
night after the men had partaken of
their evening meaL
The houses In the Italian section of
the borough, adjacent to Spencer's field,
were gaily decorated with Chinese lan
terns and flags and there was quite a
display of fireworks. Then the people
gathered In the church and listened to
an address on the life and piety v. St.
Anthony, which was delivered by Rev.
Dominic Landro. After this the Jubilat
ing was resumed and continued for
sevral hours, the Old Forge band, com
posed entirely of Italians, enlivening the
occasion with stirring Italian and Amer
ican selections.
Before midnight the festivities were
suspended and the Sabbath quietly
ushered In. The church services over,
yesterday, the festivities were resumed,
and as on the preceding evening the
Old Forge band played an Important
part Nt to It In Importance was a
pole fifty-seven feet high, which was
erected on the summit of Spencer's Hill,
which commands a magnificent view of
Scranton and the valley north and
south. This pole waa greased from top
to bottom and suspended from an Iron
circle that crowned It were several
bottles of wine, a box of cigars, cakes of
cheese, strings of sausages and a five
dollar bill, all of which were to become
the absolute property of the man who
succeeded In climbing the sltppsry piece
of wood.
All afternoon men tolled to reach the
prizes dangling above their heads, but
like the wlll-o'-the-wlsp hunters they
never succeeded. Sometimes the climb
er would reach a distance of thirty feet
above the ground and then relaxing his
grasp for an Instant would desce.td
with great rapidity, bringing to the
ground with him those who were tolling
UP the pole behind him.
And all the while the band played,
proving that whatever else may be said
of tho Old Forge musicians their stay
ing powers and heroic devotion to duty
cannot be questioned.
But the greased pole and the band
were not the only enlivening features of
the day's exercises. There was a race
between dogs and other forms of sport
peculiar to Italy and the thousand or
more persons present seemed to enjoy
themselves hugely.
In the evening the houses were re
splendent with their Chinese lanterns
and the bower of evergreens In which
the band was stationed also came In
for its share of illuminated decoration.
