MADE A WOMAN SPLIT TIES.
True state of Affairs mt the Reported
Avon Slave Colony.


AVON. N. Y. Dec. 2s.-The reported ex-
istence here of a slave colony has led to
an investigation, especially OF the case
cited CT Calvatore Deloatis, who is said to
have controlled the labor and collected
the wages OF the Italians in the reported
colony. Deloatis is known here as George
lombard. He conducts a shoe store. He
hires cut men and women and collects
their wages How much CT their wages
He rents buildings and subrents them to
his countrymen for profit.
So far as controlling a colony Of ital-
fans Is concerned this is mistake, as
they appear to be free to work wherever
they can get employment Deloatis has
net imported any foreign labor, so far as
known.
Michael Sontori. who lives in Cincin-
natl wrote to Deloatis asking him to send
for his wife and son, who were in Sicily.
AS he had no money. he asked Deloatis
to advance the amount necessary. De-
lcatis did this and Sontori sent him SS9 TO
pay the expenses.
De,oatis in the meantime had Sontori's
wife and son in Avon with him, and de-
clined TO send them on to Cincinnati Until
s35 more was paid. Unless this amount
were forthcoming he threatened to knife
Mrs Sontori.
An inspector was sent to secure the re-
lease CT the woman. II is said Deloatis
made Mrs Sontori split railroad ties and
do similar kinds of manual labor, threat
ening to kill her if she did not obey or
ders. She was rescued from her bondage
by the Government officials, whose inter
ference was procured after her boy had
gun away from Deloatis, made his way to
Cincinnati and told his father of the con-
dition OF things.
