SuPpressing Italian vendettaA
NEW ORLEANS. Oct. .15.-Davld c. Shen-
messy, chief of police, was fatally shot ct
midnight by three men, at the corner Of
Basin and Grand streets -Four shots en-
tered his body. The assailants are SO far

ians whom the chief had recently pushed
hard with view to suppressing their ven-
dettas. Several arrests have been made.
Hennessey lives on Girard street and
was on his way home from his Office at
the central station. which is on the corner
Of Common and Basin streets. He had
turned into Girard street when he was fred
upon by party Of men who were con-
csaled in doorway. Hewas wounded at
the first FIRE, but Is soon as he
recovered from his surprise he
fired four shots in the direction
of his assaiIants. The fusillade
attracted the neighbors and when they
arrived only the wounded chief was found.
The number Of wounds he received lekds to
the conclusion that his assailants used
both pistols and shot gun. He has many
slight wounds about the body, in addition
to two severe wounds in the abdomen and
one in the lungs. The clothing on the
chiefs left side was riddled with shot, but
only few of them had enough force to
