A MYSTERIOUS MURDER
ANGELO DONGOLA SHOT AND KILLED
AT LATTIMER ON MONDAY.
Mrs. Annie Annutz Claims She Fired the
tihotH Which Knded the Italian'o Life,
Hut There la a Strong Suspicion That
Site Ih -Shielding Her Brother.
Lattimer was greatly excited on Mon
day morning by a shooting committed
by Mrs. Annie Annutz, 22 years of ago.
Her victim is Angeio Dongola, aged 30
years. The Annutz family lived in a
small two-story house. Tho family
is composed of the father, mother and a
twolvo-months'-old baby. They retired
at the usual hour on Sunday night
and a small lamp was left burning
at tho foot of tho garret stairs. About
midnight Mrs. Annutz was aroused by
someone clutching her. She noticed that
tho light was extinguished, but thought
it was accidentally done by her husband.
She spoke to him and then discovered
that it was not her husband. Her
screams soon aroused him and the in
truder crouched by the bed. Relighting
tho lamp they beheld Angeio Dongola,
who fled immediately.
Tho night being dark they concluded
to wait until morning. At 6 o'clock,
' according to the woman's story, the
woman's brothers came around, as was
their custom before going to work.
They then learned of the affair of tho
night before. A revolver was placed on
the table by some of tho men, that the
intruder upon his return might be given
a warm rocoption. Unexpectedly he
did return.
Dongoia came to the .house evidently
stricken with remorse. He begged the
woman to forgive him, and while on his
knees implored her to either forgive or
kill him. Tho sight of tho man aroused
the spirit of indignation to an uncon
trollable pitch. Seizing tho revolver she
turned the weapon upon him, and fired
five shots in quick succession. Eacli
bullet took effect, and Dongola fell over
mortally wounded. lie died two hours
later.
The shooting created intense excite
ment in the vicinity. When the neigh
bors rushed to the house they found the
woman stauding over the dying man and
exclaiming: "I did it!" The authori
ties were notified, and Coal and Iron
Policeman Cook arrested tho woman on
the strengtli of her own confession. She
was taken before Alderman Martin, of
Hazleton, and swore to tho killing.
Thero is one man missing, An
drew Annutz, and this tho friends
of tho murdered man point to suspb
clously. In fact, they do not believe the
woman's statement, and say that it is
only a ruse to protect the real murderer.
The woman was held in custody until a
further investigation can be made.
Both Were Commit fed.
From Yesterday's Plain Speaker.
Squire Martin's court was filled again
yesterday afternoon at the hearing of
Nell Annutz and his wife. Only three
witnesses were heard and tho last one
sworn told a very straight story. It was
the general opinion of those present that
the first two told stories that would be
least apt to get them into trouble, while
the youngest of the number was very
rraufc in his statement. Ho described
having scon two young fellows follow
tho unfortunate man up tho pathway
leading to tho rear of the house, which
is occupied by the three witnesses. Ho
could any names, but claimed
they are boarders In Neil's house, and that
he had seen them on Sunday, but not
since the horrible crime was committed.
He also told tho police and attorneys
that he could recognize them should he
see them.
It has been proved conclusively that
Nell and his wife were in tho shanty
when and whore the fatal shots were
fired which, together with tho strength
of the wife's confession made Monday
morning that she had committed the
deed was considered sufficient by tho
sqtiiro to commit them. They were
taken to tho county jail by Coal and
Iron Pollcoman John Cook. Attorney
Frank Noedham will arrange to have
them given a habeas corpus hearing at
tho earliest possible date. City Solicitor
T. S. McNair lias been employed by the
commonwealth.
f Sensational Murder Trial.
Eugene Ward, counsel for Peter Was
sil, alias "Terrible Pete," caused a sen
sation in court on Monday by filing ob
jections to quash the array of jurors
because the jury coinmissisiouers, Tay
lor and Dohl, failed to take the oath of
office as required by law. He also pre
sented an affidavit from Prothonotary
Llewellyn which showed that the jury
commissioners had not filed their oath
of office in tho prothonotary's olliee as
required by law.
Mr. Ward's statement created a sensa
tion, as lie claimed that all of the panels
of jurors which the new jury commis
sioners have drawn were Irregular and
void. The objections also asked that
the Indictment against Wasslll lie quash
ed because of the said irregularity. Mr.
Ward Insisted that the defect was fatal,
and offered to prove even by the jury
commissioners that they had not taken
the oath of office.
>At the opening of court on Tuesday
morning the argument was resumed.
Solomon Taylor and J. F. Dolil, the
jury commissioners, wore sworn and said
they had taken their oaths of office in
the recorder's olliee and filed them iu
that office instead of the prothonotary's,
where they should bo. Judge Dennett
then overruled the motion to quash the
indictment.
Tho next sensation was sprung by
District Attorney Fell. Ho said that a
man named Salsburg, who was inter
ested in Wassil, was giving money to
the commonwealth's witnesses and was
sending them out of town. Andrew
Gorasavage, who had just given the sen
sational story to Detective Eckert, was
called and swore that he talked with
Harry Salsburg at the hitter's store on
April 16, and Salsburg told him to tell
Andrew Repents, an important witness
for the commonwealth, to go to Sals
burg and get a few dollars to leave town.
Judge Bonnet ordered the district at
torney to arrest Salsburg and make an
investigation.
Wassil is charged witli shooting a man
at Georgetown, and he is also wanted
by the Russian government for two
murders in that country.
Beyond the selecting of the jury there
was no progress made witli the case
yesterday. Martin Campbell, of town,
is one of the jurymen.
More Trouble for the CoinmigHionerH.
Tho county commissioners and James
O'Brien and Thomas F. Quigley, tho de
tectives who worked up the mountain
murder case, were each served witli a
summons on Tuesday to appear in court
tomorrow to show causo why they should
not be surcharged witli the moneys paid
Messrs. O'Brien and Quigley for detec
tive services. Attorney P. J. Buddy,
who has charge of tho proceedings, said
in explanation that no contract existed
between the detectives and the com
missioners to run down the murderers,
and that such a contract had been made
with the Barring-McSweeney detective
agency.
O'Brien and Quigley, Mr. Ruddy said,
wore not licensed detectives and could
not claim any more than the fees allow
ed by law; that O'Brien has been con
stantly employed by tho Lehigh Valley
Railroad, and has been receiving a
monthly salary from that company since
the commission of the crime.
Mr. Buddy further stated that accord
ing to tho act of 1887, the only oificial in
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania who
may employ a dectectivo is the governor
of the state. In the same act, referring
to where county commissioners arc em
powered to employ detectives, the latter
must havo a liccnso to practice as detec
tives and the governor is the only excep
tion to tliis rule. He also claims that
Messrs. Quigley and O'Brien are only
entitled to such fees as are paid to an
ordinary witness—Sl per day and
mileage.
Boctor Sued for Malpractice.
From the Wilkesbarre Newsdealer.
John J. Mulhall, of Hazleton, in behalf
of his two-year-old son, James Mulhall,
has entered a suit in trespass against
Dr. W. G. Deitz, of Hazleton, for
SI,OOO damages for malpractice. The
plaintiff in his statement alleges that
tho boy fell and had his lip severely cut,
that Dr. Deitz was called and sewed up
the wound carelessly and without treat
ing it antlceptically according to tho or
dinary methods and practice of sur
gery and as a result of such treatment
the boy is disfigured and will have to
undergo another operation. Attorney
M. J. Mulhall, an undo of tho child,
represents the plaintiff.
New Style of Mileage Books.
The Lehigh Valley Company has
placed on sale another new form of
mileage book. Tho late form, which is
a decided improvement, is in one con
tinuous sheet of 1,000 miles, and Is fold
ed up in a blue cover similar to tho old
style book used. The conductors can
very easily tear off tho required number
of miles without the use of any patent
arrangement as is now the case. Taken
altogether tho new book is a decided
improvement over the one now iu use.
Coal Find at Shickaliinny.
The Cadwallader coal tract, joining
the Salem Coal Company's lands, just
below tho Shfckshinny borough line, has
proved to bo a rich find. Men havo
been at work for a week or ten days
driving a tunnel through the lower or
third vein, and have found five feet of
excellent coal free from bone and slate.
Operations on the second vein, thus far,
give promise of even a richer yield than
the third. The tract covers nearly 200
acres.
Beware of OlntineiitH for Catarrh
that contain mercury, as mercury will
surely destroy the sense of smell and
completely derange the whole system
when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on proscriptions from reput

ENGLISH VITAL STATISTICS.
The Marriages, Birth?) and Deaths Dur
ing the Year 1804.
The 57lit annual report of the regis
trar general of marriages, births and
J deaths in England and Wales in 189 V
has just been published. His statistics
| are based on a population estimated
| to number in the middle of the year
1894 30,060,763 persons (14,565,660 males
and 15,495,103 females). The number
j of marriages registered was 226,449,
corresponding to a rate of 15.1 persons
j married per 1,000 living. The rate in
1893 was 14.7, and the average rate from
1884 to 1893 was 14.9. This recovery
I coincided with a slight fall in the value
! of British exports, and with a fall in
the price of wheat of 13.3 per eent.
below that of 1893, which had been the
lowest on record. Of the marriages
contracted in 1894 155,352, or 686 per
1,000, were celebrated according to the
rites of the Established church, and
71,097, or 314 per I,COO otherwise. Of
the 221,215 couples whose ages were
stated in the register the mean ages
were 28.41 for men and 26.15 for women.
The figures for 1894 show the first nota
ble break in the increase of the mean
oge at marriage, which has been going
on for several years. This is not accom
panied by any increase in the propor
tions of under-age marriages.
Births during the year numbered
890,289, and were in the proportion of
29.6 per 1,000 persons living, being the
lowest on record, and showing a fall
of 2 per 1,000 below the mean rate in
the preceding deconniuni. The deaths
amounted to 498.827, a proportion of
16.6 per 1,000. The average rate in the
preceding ten years wrs 19.2. Tho
death rate in 1594 was considerably
lower than in any previous year on
record.. In 1894 the death rates at the
several age groups were not only con
siderably lower than the mean rates
in the previous four years, but were
also lower even than the exceptionally
low rates of 1888 and 1889. The death
rate in the urban districts was 17.1, or.
more than 15 per cent., and in the rural
districts 15.6, or nearly 11 per cent,
below the decennial average. The
deaths from smallpox numbered 82ft,
or 27 per 1,000,000, as compared with 49
per 1,000,090 in 1893. The scarlet-fcver
rate was the lowest, and the enteric
fever rate almost the lowest on record.
On the other hand, the diphtheria mor
tality was 53 per cent, above the decen
nial average. The deaths attributed
to suicide, were 2,729, or 91 per 1,000,000,
the highest rate on record.--Chicago

Samuel Gearhart, aged about years,
of Delano, a married man with one
child, was employed on the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad as brakeman on coal trains.
Ho returned from his work the other
day and his wife was alarmed at his
strange actions, lie wandered down to
the depot a little later, where his pecu
liar childish antics attracted general at
tention, and the sad conviction was
forced upon his family and friends that
he had become mentally unbalanced.
The same night his insanity assumed
a violent form, and the constant atten
tion of friends and neighbors was neces
sary to prevent his doing violence to
himself or others. Doctors were called
in and they pronounced his insanity due
to illness. The unfortunate man was a
victim of dyspepsia and melancholia,
lie. WHS taken to tin; Schuylkill county

to the clothes of lior live-year-old brother
and three-year-old sister. The children
screamed, but before help arrived
the boy was so badly burned that he
died in less than an hour. The baby's life

ered the flames, but she is very badly
burned. The case is to be investigated
