An'ltalian Youth Murders the Man
Who Killed His; Father.
HE GLORIES IN HIS CRIME.
Against Frank Cassatta and at the
.First Opportunity Carried
It Into Execution.
New York, Aug. 4.——Frank Cassatta,
the Italian who was shot by Peter Bar-
cio, an 18-year—old boy, at Prince and
Elizabeth streets, last night, died in St.
Vincent’s hospital early today. Before
the light had faded from the Italian’s
eyes his slayer was brought in and held
over his bed. No stranger scene has
ever been witnessed in the big hospital
than the one at the deathbed of Cassatta
when Barcio was brought-in. The half
, . dead man raised ever so slightly on the
._ pillow. The Barcio youth leaned over
“ him with a look of hatred in. his eyes.
“We are quits,” the younger one said.
I kill you. You
shot him twice. I shot you twice.”
The voice raised insensibly as he talk-
ed and the eyes grew brighter under
the fire of hatred.
It was the last scene in a feud that
3: had for its basis the murder of Barcio’s
father by Cassatta two years ago. -
Cassatta was sent up for manslaugh-
ter, but influence among the Italian sec-
tion got him out a few months ago.
He boasted that Cassatta’s time on
earth was limited; that his shrift would
He told this threat
through Mulberry street. It was known
that Barcio was armed and only waited
his chance.
Cassatta was warned, and the fear of
death grew upon him. He ventured out
but seldom and then at night. He stop-
ped frequenting the Italian cafes.
The Vendetta Comes Home.
The vendetta came home last night.
Cassatta was forced to go out on an er-
rand. He crept from some hoVel'in the
Italian district and went along Prince
street. He staid in the shadows as
much as possible. At the crossing of
Prince and Elizabeth streets there are
four brilliantly illuminated corners, two
saloons, a. drug store and a big fruit
store.
Cassatta started to cross, over the
space of white light. He was but fairly
into it when a shot rang out. It came
from behind him, and Cassatta, 'with a
cry, threw up his hands and staggered
forward. Yet the bullet had not struck.
Another shot crashed out, and this
time the bullet struck. Cassatta came
to earth with a moan. He was up again
in an instant and started for Dolger’s
saloon. As he did so three more shots
were fired, and this time Cassatta was
down for good.
A man standing 40 feet behind the
fallen Italian looked down the chamber
of a smoking revolver and then with a
careless gesture threw it. away. The
street was packed and jammed in an
instant. In the Italian tongue the news
went around from wineshop to wine-
shop that Barcio’s vendetta had come
home.
No one made any attempt to help
Cassatta until five minutes after the
shooting. Then a. policeman raised him
to the sidewalk.
Barcio was easily captured. He made
no resistance.
“Why should I care?” he said. “The
hound killed the padre. It is but jus-
tice.”
The Avenger Identified.
Cassatta was taken to St. Vincent’s
hospital. Barcio was taken in charge
by detectives to the Leonard Street p0-
lice station. ' '
Nine Italians were around the bed-
side of Cassatta an hour later. They
talked in their own tongue. No one in
the‘hospital could understand them.
The police led Barcio in a few min-
utes later for Cassatta to identify. Only
broken words could -be caught in the
rift of Italian. The word ”vendetta”
was repeated over and over again.
Cassatta’s only intelligible word was
Pietro, Barcio’s first name.
When Cassatta died, they had to drag
Barcio from the bedside. He fairly
gloated over the agony of the sick man.
Over and over again he repeated “Jus-
tice!” ' - '
They took him to Jefferson Market
court today under an escort of detectives
to plead. Half of Little Italy lounged
around Jefferson Market.’
If you asked an Italian what he
thought of it, he smiled and looked

THE GULDPrsoPPP. CASE.
Thorn and Mrs.‘ Es... wan riot no Tried '
In the County of ‘jmr York. ‘
New York. A"". 4. —- The announce-'
ment was made :.-c‘..;y that Mrs. N'ack
and Martin Thorn, jointly indicted for
the murder of William Guldensupp‘e,
would be tried in Queens county and
not in this county, although the indict-
ments upon which they are‘held were
found in this county. The announce-
ment is official and is. the result of a
discovery by the district attorney’s of-
fice that if the pair were convicted of’
manslaughter or murder in the second
degree by a jury in this county the ver-
dict'would be set aside.
“If Thorn and Mrs. Nack were tried
in this county for murder,” said a
prominent member of the district attor-
ney’s staff, “and the'evidence convinced
the jury that the pair were guilty of no
crime of a. higher degree than marr-
slaughter, then by that very finding
. this county would lose its jurisdiction.
"The indictment alleges that the
crime was partly committed in this
county and partly in the county of
Queens The parts of the crime alleged
to have been committed in this county
Were-the plotting of the act and the en-
ticing of the bath rubber to Woodside.
Therefore if the jury should find that
the homicide was the result of sudden .
passion, impulse or the like, and that
there was no deliberation inl'lt, xthe
proof of the parts of the crime alleged
to have been done in this county would
fall through, and with it would go by
the board the jurisdiction of this coun-
ty;"'
This point of law was ’the final cause
of the decision of the district attorney
to transfer the case to Queens county
next month, and the delay in making
the official announcement was due
simply to the fact that the grand jury
does not meet in Long Island City until
September.
Notwithstanding this decision, Assist—
tant District Attorney David Mitchell
was today just as firmly convinced as
he ever was that the people would have
no trouble in establishing a case of
murder in the first degree.
In support of this view of the case
an interesting bit of testimony of Mrs.
Riger, at whose store in ‘Astoria Mrs.
Nack is said to have bought the oil-
cloth, was made public today for the
first time.
When Mrs. Nack had purchased the
oilcloth, according to Mrs. Riger’s story,
the customer asked the storekeeper:
“Do you have. any strong binding
cord?”
“No,” was Mrs. Riger's reply; “I do
notsell any cord in my store.”
“Oh, that is too had,” said the cus-
tomer, apparently greatly distressed,
“for in that case I shall be obliged to
go back to New York to buy it.” '
Seeing that the woman was greatly
worried, Mrs. Riger said: “But I have
all the pieces of cord which comes
around the packages sent here. You‘are
welcome to them if they will do you
any good.”
The woman appeared relieved at this,
and when Mrs. Riger brought in a
tangled mass of strong cords, no two of
the lot exactly alike, the supposed Mrs.
Nack grabbed the whole tangle and
thanked the shopkeeper. This evidence
is regarded as important, in View of the
the same texture.
