Guiseppé Cerrini and Agostino Piezzi, who are natives of Switzerland. They remained some time in the room used as a bar-room until the arrival of a party of six men from the Kitts’ railroad camp. When they Game in the wocd-choppers retired to a room adjoining the bar-room where they were seated at a table and having beer and sardines. Ina short time one of the newly arrived. went in and invited them to go into the bar-room and drink beer with them, This they declined saying they. were having beer and were not acquainted with the new comers. One of the last named, Samnel. Hedge, then came.in and commenced to abuse the two Swiss, and before long they came to blows, Hodge being the attacking party, and having the agsistance of one or more of his companions, The man first attacked was Cerrini, and during the progress of the struggle all got outside of the house and Cerrini was receiving a fearful beating. Piezzi went to his rescue, which enabled Cerrini to get back into the house. Piezzi, who had gone outside to assist Cerini, was then set upon by several of the party, and was. fatally beaten, having been knocked down and apparently been struck on the head with the pole of a pickax. There were also marks of boot heels on his face. Spiller closed the door to protect Cerrini, not knowing the fate that had befallen Piezzi. After he had closed the door some of the party outside demanded to be let in, but Spiller told them he had a Joaded gun and would shoot if they attempted to effect an entrance. William She«, one of the outside party; then tried to kick the door down, when Spiller fired, the load striking him below the left hip and making a terrible wound from which he will certainly die. “Phe wounding of Shea excited others of the party, and Hodge went into the house and attacked Spiller, throwing him down and commenced beating him. While he was doing this Cerrini asked’ where he could get something to defend himself, and Spiller told him where to get a pistol which he secured, and fired at Hodge shooting him through the neck and inflicting a severe but not necessarily fatal wound. Hostilities then ceased. Some of the men present went to the railroad camp and told C. WwW. Kitts, who happened to be there, of the probability of some one having been killed at the beer house, and he took assistance and went there, and upon arriving found that, Piezzi was lying in the garden dead, and Cerrini in the hou e ina very badly damaged condition. Monday morning acting Coroner Paynter went to the scene of the tradgedy, to obtain evidence in regard to the case and the holding of an inquest. He held the following persons under arrest as being present at the time of the fighting: Daniel Keefe, John McLean, Marshal Kelly, : Thomas Duncan and Rudolph Spiller. Under Sheriff Reynolds went down on the morning train, and came up with these men on the afternoon train. They were placed in jail till an examination tikes place. John Hocking and officer James Keathly went Monday morning and brought up the body of Cerrini. ; “Upon the arrival of the body a large crowd gathered .at Tracy & Hocking’s to view the body of the. unfortualso came up-:on the train, and wil} The latter showed the evidence of the that the: surgeon had dressed his wounds with The men who composed the party who went to Spiller’s place*at the time Cerrini and Piezzi . > mi . howed tl § ' aoe HER whe OF . ee mee at order at once or they will be too late brutal treatment. Spiller and Cerrini’ ; serve as. wituesses‘at the examination. . were there were Samuel Hodge, Wm. Shea, Danje} Keefe, John McLean, Marshall Kelly and Thomas Duncan. So far as known Hodge and Shea were the principals in the murderous assault. It is claimed that the others had taken no partit it, and came‘uway when the trouble: commenced. The truth of this will be better determined -when-the examination takes place, “The two woodchoppers are said to be industrious and ‘peaceable men, and did nothing to” warrant the murderous attack. on them. The. statement of Spiller goes to justify his action, as he evidently believed he was defending his own life and that of the badly injured man, Piezzi, who-was in.the house with bim.”’ The Tidings has the following relative to the participants in the row: “The dead Italian was:named Augustine Piazzi; his comrade, Gueseppi Gerini, both about .38 or 40 years of age. They . were both unmarried. Spiller is a native of Switzerland, 65 years. of age and an old resident of the You Bet neighborhood. Shea is the ‘only married man of those concerned (asfar as known). in ‘the tradgedy, He has a family residing on the Morgan ranch, on the old Nevada road. ‘He is about'40-years “of age and a native of Ireland, we believe. John McLean is respectably connected, his parents residing in Grass Valley. He isa youngman. Keeffe is about 40 years ofage and a native of Ireland. He has resided in and about Grass Valley fora long time. Hodge is a brother of Thomas Hodge of Grass Valley, a native of England and aged ‘about 50 years. Kelley is about 35 years of age, an American, and has relutives in Grass Valley. Duncan isa well know resident of Union Hill and has probably-seen forty-odd summers.’’ Shea’s leg was amputated about four o’clock Monday afternoon and he ‘died three hours later. : District Attorney Nilon has obtained statements from Spiller and-Gerreni,. and they fully agree with the above account. Hodge has been lodged in the county jail while Keefe, McLean, Kelly, Dunean, Spiller, and Cerreni ‘are in custody at Grass Valley. » An inquest was held Tuesday, and it is probable the cases will be called up Wednesday for examination. .

Janitor McCauley was watching them from the rear steps leading to the courtruoom, when de Frenne and O’Hearn, suddenly scaled the partially completed wall on the east of the jailyard and ran _ off, none of the workmen employed on th wall being at that point just then. Mr. McCauley immediately gave the alarm, whereupon Sheriff Dunster, Under Sheriff Reynolds:and Deputy Sheriff Schmidt started after the fugitiggs. : : .
