YET RUMOR HAS IT THAT THE RUSSIANS HAVE SIEZED THE; CHINESESLAND, HAINAN, FOR A EXPECTED TO TAKE VOLUME XXXXIII. INDIANA, INDIANA COUNTY, WEDNESDAY, -APRIL Italian Laborer was Killed In Fight with Fellow Countryman. White's Station was the scene of a murder Sunday afternoon, when Luigi Boni, an Italian met death at the hands of Leopold also an Italian. The fight grew out of an attempt of Boni to secure some beer from a com- 'inisary, where Sabatella was employed. The men were employed by Me- Menamiri Simp, railrcad contractors, who are laying an extra track along the West Penn.

About a hundred Italians are employed on the job, and most of them had been drinking quite freely Saturday night and Sunday, When Boni was refused the beer at the commifary, one of the occupants slapped him across the face. This angered him very, much and he retired, swearing most profanely at the inmates. Donati Stronvello stepped out and a fight with Boni. ftabatella then went out of the commisary, armed with a black jack and a revolver. He struck Soni several times over the head witli, the black jack, whereupon Boni turned his attention to Sabatella and pulled an ugly knifp.

Sabatella backed away, and being hard pressed, pulled his revolver and fired. Boni fell to the ground and expired in a few moments Sa- ybatella made good his escape and nothing has been heard of his whereabouts since. Sheriff Neal and Coroner Davis were notified of the murder, and Coroner Davis went'down Monday morning and held an inquest, when the facts above WPre brought out in the testimony, "Sabatella is a handsome young man -of about twenty-six years, and from the hUrriber of pictures he has had taken with the gentler sex, he seems to be a social 'favorite among the American girls. He don't seem to'have anv use for his fellow w'omen. When a search was made of his voluminous love letters were found American girls, residing at Shelocta, Boihar, Robinson, Coalport and several other It was first thought that the blows on the head might have been responsible for Boni's death, but a post mortem by Dr.

Earhart, of Saltsburg, held Tuesday morning, proved otherwise. The bullet entered the right side and passing through the lower patt of the lung, cut off a couple of large vessols at the base of the heart. There were a couple of contusions on the skull, but the blows were not hard enough to cause death. Stromello has been held PS a witness pending the capture ot Sabatella. State Committee Meeting.

W. J. Brennen, of Allegheny county, offered amendment, which was seconded by Charles P. Donnelly, of Philadelphia, to the rules so as to provide that all disputes as to the selection of nominees for Congressmen, State Senator and Judge shall be referred to the State Executive Committee where the State conferees cannot agree on a nomination and that the decision of the committee shall be final. The amendment was referred to the State Convention.

Ex-Congressman Henry D. Green, of Buckp, o'ffered a resolution that the chair appoint a committee of fifteen to prepare uniform rules to govern the Democratic primaries throughout the Stale and to report at the next annual meeting of the State Committee. The motion was adopted. The question as to whether the State Convention shall nominate one or three candidates for Superior Court Judge was not considered by the committee. Under the law no elector is entitled to vote for more than three candidates when four are to be elected.

Four judges will be Dejected this year, which insures the elec- 'tion of one Democrat. Sentiment in the committee favors only one nomination and the convention is expected to name but one candidate.

The only redeemable feature about the article is the statement that Indiana would be a desirable place for the new state capital.
