wooded tract nearby and banged ?o
the same limb.
Both men were arrested about aix
o'clock in the afternoon by a deputy
sheriff charged with being accessories
to tbe shooting of J. D. Knsteiling,
the bookkeeper of Bustillo
Brothers and Diaz several days ago.
They were locked up in the west
Tarapa barracks for a short time and
after nine o'eloek were taken out,
placed in a hack and Btarted towards
the county jail in Tampa.
They were accompanied by Deputy
Sheriffs Evans and Bryan. When
the hack in which the four men were
riding reached Howard and Grand
Central avenues a squad of armed
men, estimated in numbers from 50
to 75 halted the party. The officers
were told to get out, and the driver
ordered to turn around. The pris
oners, handcuffed to each other, j
were then ordered to alight.
As the two prisoners were marched
off the two officers hurried to the
nearest telepbono and sent a message
to police headquarters.
When Police Chief Woodward nrived
at the scene no one was in
sight. He was greeted with the
gruesome sight of the dangling bodies
in the moonlight.
A hasty examination was made but
there was no clue upon which the
officers could proceed. The two deputy
sherics, when questioned stated
that they believed the lynching party
wati composed of Italians and Cubans.

some of them if they could be
brought face to face with them.
When the bodies were cut down at
11 o'clcok it was found that the necessity
for hanging both to the same
limb arose when the mob failed in an
efTort to sever the chain connecting
the handcuffs. Ficearotto had hir
pipe gripped firmly in his teeth and
wore his hat.
Following the discovery of the

midnight a crowd estimated at 2,000

recently in the labor troubles between
the manufacturers and clgaT
makers. 'Marshal I.ogan, of the West
Tampa force, stated that he has an
eye witness who will testify that Albano
was the man who fired the
shot which seriously wounded J. I).
Fosterling, and that Ficarrotta was a
conspicuous member of the crowd
gathered in front of the Ilustillo
brothers factory at the time of the
assault.
Fight months ago Ficarrotta was
tried on a charge of murdering his
uncle, O. Ficarrotta, a prominent
wholesale dealer of West Tampa. He
was acquitted for lack of suilicient
evidence, and as he was being carried j
to Jail Tuesday night he made the re- |
mark that he had escaped hanging j
on a chargo of murder, and that he
supposed he would escape on this
minor charge.
The police do not believe that the
execution of these two Italians has
any bearing on the local strike situation,
alleging that it is rather the
roault of recent feuds between certain
elements of the local Italian colony.

It beRins to look aa if the people
have made up their minds to have
an accounting at the hands of the

1908 being only 1,995.
uugene N. Foss, Democrat, was i
sleeted to congress from 'Massachusetts
on March II!2. 1910, by a plurality
of ft.6 4 0. in a district that had
gone Republican two years before
by over 10,000 majority.
James S. Havens, Democrat, was
sleeted to congress from New York
aver Hons Aldrich in April, 1910, by
a plurality of 5,831, in a district
(hat gave a large Republican vote in
the election of 1908.

the governor, two congressmen and
the legislature, which will elect a
Democratic I'nited States Senator
iii<1 Democratic State officers. Heodes
two mem hers of the State Supremo
Court will be appointed by the
Democratic Governor. The Democrats
carried about four-fifths of the
counties in the State.
I'nited States Senator Julius C.
Burrows, "stand-pat" Republican,
was defeated in the Michigan primaries
by Representative Charles K.

In the wake of such significant
igns as the above we are looking

to be plundered any longer and ]
hey are looking to the Democrats ,

SHOWS UP TEDDY
AN I8SVK OF VERACITY RAISED
BY MRS. B. 8TORKR. '
She Challenges lloowevelt's Truthfulness
in the Archbishop Ireland
Controversy.
The resignation of Bellamy Storer.
as ambassador to Austria-Hungary
was transmitted to Washington on
March 7, 1906, and was accepted.
His resignation was requested by the
State Department, and it later developed
that serums difficulty had
arisen between President Roosevelt
and the ambassador, primarily be- ;
cause the latter had failed to answer *
a communication from the President. 1
The communication enclosed a let- J
ter to Mrs. Storer, calling upon her .
to give a written promise not to in- t
terfere tn Vatican politics. (
The point at issue was that Mrs. (
Store*- had used the oflloial position t
of her husband to forward the ap- (
pointtnent of Archbishop Ireland to (
the cardinalate. The Storers respond- g
ed to the action of the State Depart- y
ment by giving out for publication j
letters from Col. Roosevelt when he ?
was Governor of New York, in which f
| he expressed high appreciation of t
Archbishop Ireland. Mrs. Storer in y
explaining this letter said it had been
written to her so she might show it y
to the Pai?al secretary in order to ,
convince the Vatican of the friendly tj
feelings of Americans toward Arch- y
bishop Ireland's policy. I
Following the sending of a letter ]
by Mr. Storer to President Roosevelt,
members of the cabinet and of
me i->enaie committor on foreign re- j,
lntions. the President crave out the
eorrespondent between hini and Am- |,
bassudor and Mrs. Storer in which a
lie said that Mr. Storer's refusal to r
answer his letters and the puhlica- |
tion of various private letters justified
that ambassador's removal, and p
that he (the President), had stated j,
with absolute clearness his position. R
and the reason It was out of the (
question for him, as President, to
try to pet any archbishop made a c
cardinal. p
Now, after four years of silence, c
Mrs. Ilellany Storer conies back nt ,,
Roosevelt, by writing a letter which p
was published Thursday in the a
Springfield Republican. This letter n
was written from France on Septem- p
her 6. and In it Mrs Storer reviews e
the controversy of her husband and a
herself with Roosevelt, concerning n
the former President's alleged au- g
thorization of the former ambnssa- a
dor to Austria-Hungary to visit Pope j,
Pius X. and ask him as a personal
favor to the President of the Pnted f
States to make Archbishop Ireland of r
St. Paul, a cardinal, c
"Letters written by the archbish- p!
op in 190S and 1904 hitherto unpublished
are quoted by Mrs. Storer ;t
to show that at repeated interviews
in the White House between the R
archbishop and the President Col. 0
Roosevelt acknowledged that he had
ommanded Mr. Storer to act as his s
personal envoy at the Vitican in be- t,
half of the archbishop. Col. Roose- ,,
velt has hitherto publicly denied that
Mr. Storer was ever authorized to j.
represent him In this manner, and (;

Mrs. Storer have the *ff??ct of making rj
much sharper the issue of veracity
between the Storers and the ex-Pres- f,
ident. je
.Mrs. Storer's letters to The Republican
also seeks to prove on the R(
testimony of Archbishop Ireland that r]
President Roosevelt promised to
make Mr. Storer United States am- f
bassador. either at Paris or London, w
and there is included still another g(
letter alleged to have been written K1
bv Col. Roosevelt to Mr. Storer Just af
after the Presidential election In p,
IK96. in which Mr. Roosevelt ,.r
asked Mr Storer to seeesttnfe.t pj
asked Ambassador Storer, to see
President-elect McKinley and urge a,
him to api>oint Col. Roosevelt as ,\
Secretary of the Navy. This last jj,
letter seems to refute a recent as- ar

sought a public office except when aj,

hief speaker was none other than
i?y old friend Senator Bristow of
Kansas. He and Merle 1). Vincent,.
Coloradan who wants to go goveror,
preached to these people about

ver heard in their lives. And Sentor
Bristow poured hot shot and
pelted lead into the pores of Oug~

upposed to be Guggenheim's home- *"

But I was gratified to see that
luggenheim was more of a thing of"

where nominally he halls from

iristow told his hearers that if they
