Evidence Heard Ycstcnlny.
Frank Uambroclo wna yesterday
placed on trial before Judge Archbald
for the kllllnc of Itoceo Halvutore nt
Hunker Hill, Dunmore, on the evening
of Friday, November 13, ISM. District
Attorney. John IS. Jones Is conducting
the prosecution and Attorney John J.
Murphy Is counsel for the defense.
The crime which Dombroslo Is
chittKCd with occurred at or near the
house of Frank C'lprlano, In the Ital
ian settlement between the Delaware,
I.acl-nwnnnn. and Western and Krlo
nnd WyomlnK A'alley tracks In the
Hunker Hill district of Dunmore. Dom
broslo and Hnlvntore were fellow
boardern at Clprlnnos house. Hnlvntore
caine homo drunk on the ovenltiK In
quorlrn nnd hud tone words with Dom
broslo. There was a light and both
men were stabbed, Salvatore receiving
a fatal wound In the breast and an
other In the shoulder and Dotnbroflo
suslnlnlnc an ugly gash In the body,
Just below the shoulder.
The prosecution allege that the kill
ing was done maliciously, but possibly
without premeditation and consequent
ly conies under the head of second de
gree murder. The defense holds that
the killing was doni In self-defense
and hopes for a verdict of acquittal.
CAl'SK OF THE KILLING.
It Is alleged that Dambroslo was eat
ing his supper when Halvntore came in
nnd picked a quarrel with him. Dam
broslo told Salvatore to IcaVe him
alone; he didn't want to have any
thing to do with him. Salvatore then
went out and returning with a knife
Jumped at Dambroslo nnd stabbed him
as he was sitting nt the supper table.
Damliroslo, though wounded, struggled
with his assailant and both men fell
to the floor. Dambroslo got the upper
band of the struggle and when he
thought he had Salvatore pubvlued
made his escape. Salvatore, however,
got uri and followed him and in self
defense Dambroslo turned upon him
and dealt him the knife wounds.
Salvatore was', the principal witness
agalmt Horchlno, who Is now serving
a life sentence for the murder of Frnnk
Comfortl, which occurred within a
stonc'ii throw of the scene of the kill
ing and which was tried In February,
U9."i. Hoschino accused Salvatore of the
crime nnd there are many who to this
day are prone to believe Dosehlno's
vcrrlon of the nffalr.
Dambroslo Is n lather Intelligent
looking Italian about .'15 years of age,
B feet 7 Inches In height, weighing 140
pounds, with swarthy complexion and
lavln black hair. An ashen color about
(he forehead and lower extremity of
the lace bears witness of his prison
conllnement. He wntches the proceed
ings keenly and occasionally leans over
to whisper something to Ills brother,
Lorcno, or his attorney, between whom
he sits. Ills appearance and actions al
together Indicates a man not easily ex
cited, but capable of fierce paslon
when lnllamul.
SLCUItlNO A Jl'IlY.
The work of drawing a Juiy
was
robbed of some of Its tedloufsnem from
the fact that the question of capital
punishment docs not enter Into 'the
case. The Jurors were examined prin
cipally as to their i-entlnieuts In the
irattcr of self-defense. Clerk Pnnlel.i
was required to call only twenty b?foro
twelve were found yho were acceptable
to both the commonwealth nnd the de
fense. They are:
Chmlps V. Decker, farmer, Newton.
Anthony Miillin, conductor, Seranton.
William Matthews, clerk, Sernnton.

District Attorney Jones began his
ojenlng address to the jury at 2.30
o'clock p. 111. He defined the different
grades of murder nnd explained that
owing to the evident absence of pre
meditation the conimonwenlth would
not press for a verdict of first degree.
He believed, from the Information be
fore him, that the crime wns one of
second degree, but If the testimony of
the case should change his conditions
he would not hesitate to reduce the
charge to that of manslaughter. He
then outlined. In brief, th history of
the ense nnd nt 3 o'clock begun the ex
amination of witnesses.
COKONRIVO TESTIMONY.
The first witness was Coroner Long,
street. Ho told that the hr.Cy was
found r.bnut eight rods from Clptinno's
boarding house. It was lying fate up
waidH, slightly turned towards the left
side. In the risht hand was clutched
n briar pipe, the bowl In the palm. The
clothing was not disordered to any
r.rcat extent. There were two wounds
made, to all nppeurances'with a sharp
pointed knife. One wound was under
the left collar-bone penetiatlng within
an Inch of the sub-davlan artery. The
other thrust of the knife penetrated
the cartlletro which Joins the llfth lib
to, the breast bono on the left side,
making a quarter Inch Incision In the
descending nortn, one of the largest
nrterles in the system. This la the
wound that caused death. A man with
such a wound would. In the doctor's
opinion, bleed to death In less than live
minutes.
In answer to Mr. Murnhy's question
ho said he thought It possible that Sal
vatore could have- walked from Clp
rlano'B to tho tpot where he was found
after having received tho wounds. The
breast bono of Salvatore with the enr
tllegea attached was exhibited by the
coroner to the Jury.
ltocco Qltlo was next called. He was
nt CIprlano'B en the night or the kllllns.
IScsldcs himself, Dambroslo and Salva
tore, there wo7o present IVtsqualo Di
Marino, Frank Clprlano, Lorenzo Oltto,
Joseph Dambroslo, brother of the de
fendant: Mrs. Clprlano, wife of tho
boarding boss, and Miss Itosarlo Clii
rlano, her daughter.
Frank Dambroslo waa eating supper,
tho witness went on to tell, when Sal
vatore went out for beer, neturnlng
lie commenced to pass it around,
Frank Clprlano refused to accept tho
proffered glars and Salvatore said "
1 take It." Clprlano mill refused.
Then Salvatore with an Imprecation
threw the glass nnd beer out of the
door nnd filled up glasses for the others,
CAUBK OF THR TItOUDLE.
Salvatore nuked Clprlano why lie re
fused to drink with him. "Hecnuse you
refused to drink with me last Sundny,
he replied. Salvatore then made pome
sneering allusion to the company Clp
rlano had preferred to his on the Sun
day in question and Dambroslo, who
wns the company he alluded to raid:
"He didn't drink with a fool nt any
rate." Salvatore made a retort in kind
and nftor some exchanges Dambroslo
said somewhat testily, "Don't bother
me, I want to cat."
"Nobody Is stopping you," nnswered
Salvatore, "I'm not taking the bread
or plate nwny from you."
Joseph Dambroslo nettled at Snlvn
tore's picking at bin brother told him
to shut ur uiid go shoot himself. Sal
vatore nt this time wns walking to
wards the door. He turned around and
fnced Frank Dambroslo. The latter
said: "Salvatoie. this is the second
time you have bothered me. If you dc-
it ngnln 111 know what to do with you."
The witness told Frank Dambroslo
that Salvntoro was not hurting him
nnd he ought to let him alone. Frank
responded by telling hltn to go to b'.azcs
or something like thnt.
Salvatore at this suddenly sprang
pa3t the witness and grabbing Dam
broslo by the coat collar stabbed him
In the shoulder. Dambroslo knocked
Salvatore down and then the witness
left.
On crcsn-exnmlnatlon ho stated thnt
while outside he saw Dambroslo run
out of the house with Salvatore fol
lowing him. He did not see Dambroslo
strike Salvatoie.
With the aid of the Interpreter he
showed the positions that Dambroslo
and Salvatore occupied during the tus
sle Inside the house, Salvatore evidently
Inning been lu Id on the Moor with his
h'cid nnd shoulders niralnst the wall
ami Dambroslo grasping him by the
urms.
WANTED HIM HELD.
While they were In this position the
wltners raid, Joseph Dambroslo said
"Hold htm, lest ho etiike you with the
knlf'.v Joseph Dambroslo raised a
chnlr but did not bit anyone.
Mr. Murphy, after a lively tilt with
the district attorney, succeeded In
blinking out the admission that Salva
tore wns drinking In Cassesse's saloon
on Lackawanna avenue all afternoon
In-company with the witness and that
when they returned to Dunmore Salva
tore wni drunk. Witness denied hav
fnt heard Salvatore declare In Casses
sce's "I am "tins to Dunmore to kill
nnd burn."
Lorenzo Gltto, brother of the preced
ing witness, was next called to the
stand nnd repented the story of the
brother In detail as had his brother.
The only variance between the two sto
ries was that the latter witness repent
ed some awful Imprecations which Sal
vatore used during the quarrel In the
house and told of another scolding
mutch between the two about fifteen
days pievlous to the fatal Friday.
District Attorney Jones tried to bring
out that the men were jealous of the
imiilcs of Kofnnin Clprlano, the board
ing boss' daughter, but could provo
that the dead man alone paid atten
tions to her.
Adjournment was made when Mr.
Murphy flnls-hed with this w itness.
SIX PLEADED GUILTY.

Their frame in Court.

COMMITTEE'S ACTION.
The bids were referred to the finance
committee, with Instructions to report
forthwith. The committee returned
nnd permitted tho bidders who were
present to come In their turns and bo
heard. Seme took ndvantnge of the
offer, but the most of them went their
way, satisfied that It was useless to ar
gue against the big bid of the Philadel
phia man.
The committee, after a short delibera
tion, returned and reported In favor of
nwardlng the bid to Cyrus Peierce.with
the provision thnt 6 per cent, of the
purchase money be deposited to the
credit of the school district nt the
Seranton Savings bank before the cloae
of banking bourn t;day. This .ecom
mendation was adopter unanimously.
The bonds are of the denomination
of 4'i per cent., and have an average
life of twenty-seven years and eight
monthr.
On motion of Mr. Jacobs, seconded
by Mr. Davis, the board reconsidered
its action of last meeting in postpon
ing the awarding of contracts for the
contemplated new buildings, Nos. G,
1". and 2S, and after much discussion,
adopted the minority report of the
building committee nw.ardlng the con
tracts as follows: No. 0, Mulheiin &
Judge, $10,055; No. ir-. Conrad Schroe
dcr, $20,111; No. 2s, Orcen Ridge Lum-b-r
comnany, $23,434.
Mr. Wormser protested against the
consideration of the bids until after
the tax levy had been made, which
consideration occasioned the postponed
action originally. Mr. Dai3 gave no
the reason for the change of sentiment
among the members since last meet
ing that they thought It best to lose
no time In starting the buildings so
that they could be completed before
Sept. 1. and thereby do away with the
renting of annexes.

Mr. Notz and Mr. Francois of the

reason that Mr. Hushes had done de
fective work on Nos. 19 and 27. Mr.
Welsh denied these allegations. Messrs.
Carson, Wormser, Welsh, Wnlsh nnd
Jennings voted niralnst the awarding
of the contracts as per the commltteo's
recommendations. The other members,
with the exception of Mr. Williams,
who wnn absent, voted nlllrmntlvely.
On the recommendation of the High
School committee, it wns ordered that
the high school be closed Holy Thurs
day nnd Good Friday. Mr. Wormser
wanted to Include all the schools, but
when it was explained to him that this
recesn wns given the high school pupils
in consideration of the fact thnt they
will bo required to continue In session
during institute week, he withdrew ills
amendment.
The plans for No. 26 annex were nn-
proved nnd on motion of Mr. Davis,
chairman of the liulldlntr committee,
the f-ecretniy was Instructed to adver
tise for bids.

APPEAL IS REINSTATED.
Phase cf Hi: Burns-Smllh Libel Suit
Has Dccn Passed Upon by the
Supreme Court.
In Philadelphia yesterday Justice
Williams, of the Supreme court, filed
an opinion reversing the court of this
county In Its action In striking oft the
appeal In the libel suit of Attorney I.
II. Burns against Attorney Cornelius
Smith. The appeal In the case Is re-
JUSTICE HENRY XV. WILLIAMS.
Wrote tho Opinion on the Burns-Smith
Appeal.
Instated and the record remitted to tho
court of this county for fuither pro
ceedings. This appeal was argued before tio
Supreme court In February and grows
out of the nctlon for libel brought by
Mr. Burns against Mr. Smith. The al
leged libelous matter was contained In
a paper book Hied with tho Supreme
court by Mr. Smith In which he re
hashed Ills oft reiterated charges with
reference to the Jennings case.
The suit was heard before arbitra
tors nnd an award of $15 000 given in
favor of Mr. Burns. Mr. Smith took
an nppeal and paid the cost by a check.
It wns ruled by the court that the
costs should have been paid In cash
and the appeal was accordingly strick
en off. From this decision an appeal
was taken to the Supreme court, which
holds that Mr. Smith Is entitled to his
appeal. The case will now come up in
this county for trial before a Jury.
