He Stabbed Capoldo Four Times In an
Italian Saloon.

Michael Landi, who stabbed Dimondin
Capoldo four times with stiletto during an
Italian row in Buchi a. Baronis saloon at tn o
corner of Hassan and Charles streets, Saturday
night, was captured by the second police sta
tion officers about o'clock Sunday morning.

ture OF both men concerned In the assault
Michel Lundi soon as he had stabbed his
victim left the Charles street fsaloon an
made his way to an Italians house on Tcfft
street. Meanwhile his brother, Salvatore,
had been arrested, but it was learned that he
was not the stiecto wielder. He had held
Capoldo while his brother made the assault.
When this fact became known, and 10 was
corroborated by the other Italians in the
row, Lieutenant Murray dispatched policemen
McGoyern, Briggs, and Edwards TO the Tefft
street house and Michael was arrested. Pa
trolmen Bloodiand Healey, whose beats are on
that particular part of Federal Hill assisted in
the capture. He was taken TO tho Second
station and then sent to the Rhode Island Hos
pital, where he was identified by the wounded
man Capoldo stated that the other brother
held him and prevented him from defending
himself. The row began over a game OF cards.
but this was only an excuse for beginning the
fight as the Lundis and Capoldo were enc
mics before they came to this country. IL is
said that they belonged 10 rival bands of rob.
