The Minneapolis journal., 1903-11-21

A clue which may eventually lead
to the discovery of the identity of the
third man who accompanied Bat
stalia and Calderone to the scene Of
the formers murder was discovered
by T he ] ournal to-day. It was
found that Calderone has brother
who answers to the description of the
man wanted and it is stated that, he
lives in Minneapolis under an assumed
name.
Carmine Ruberto, proprietor Of the
Bucket Of Blood, saloon in st. Paul,
who is well acquainted with the two
brothers, says that the other brother,
who he thinks is named Humbert, is
much older than Tony. He has not
seen Humbert for several years, but
understands that hei is living In Min,
fneapolis under another name. Ruberto
Z does not know where Humbert lives,
neither was he able to tell under what
Humbert is smaller than Tony and
always. wears his hat pulled down well
over his forehead. He always has a
large black nustache.
This description tallies closely with
that of the third man as given by the
street car conductor who took the trio
to the scene Of the murder.
This information was given to the
police and officers have been detailed
to find the brother. If Tony has re-
turned to Minneapolis, they argue, he
is probably in hiding In his brothers S
home.
Another clue which would indicate
that Humbert is the man wanted is
the fact that a blood-soaked rag, a
part Of a handkerchief bearing part
of an embroidered letter H, was
found near the bloody trail leading
from the Franklin avenue bridge to
Minneapolis.
