The father was knocked down and

limb from limb had it not been for the
arrival Of the reserve police from two
station houses, who were forced to
use their clubs and threatened to

According to the police the murder
was deliberately planned by an or.
ganized gang and this gang is alleged
to have sent to Toronto for Rossati,
who arrived last night After his ar.
rival he was seen about Mulberry
Bend with Italians, and his immense
stature attracted attention.
Boessoto is an enemy of these or.
ganized gangs and his son inherited

When not studying music, young Bo-
essoto helped about the restaurant
Several weeks ago he learned that the
murderous gang about Mulberry Bend
had planned to rob number of mi
ners who were coming through New
York and who had engaged board in
the lodging house over the Boessoto
restaurant.
Young BOessOto went to the police
and asked for protection for the men,
and soon an italian detective had ar
rested twelve suspicious characters,
who were held until the miners had
taken a ship for their homes.
Once out of Jail, it was said, the
gang determined on Boessoto's death
Early today ROssati entered the res.
taurant and when approached by the
Elder Boessoto said he wanted moth.

the place he asked Rossati to leave.
The latter became insulting and re.

the kitchen, heard his father and the
man in an argument. He came out,
and up to this time the man had made
no demonstration of violence, but the
instant he saw Young Boessoto, Ros.
sati took pistol from his pocket, lev

bullet struck the boy between the eyes

then, according to the police, struck

William Deans Disappearance-No
 Tidings.
 William Dean. who has filled re- sponsible position with the Greist Manufacturing company and who has lived with his widowed mother on Jew ell street and who was reported to the police last week as missing since a week ago Saturday, has not been heard from. He returned home from his work on the evening of January 18th in his usual buoyant spirits and after enjoying the |evening meal with his mother changed his clothes and taking dollar left the house. Since then his disappearance has been as complete as though the earth had swallowed him. The poor mother endured her distraction for a week and finally sought the aid of the police. A careful and systematic search has been planned by the officers and the mystery is likely to be soon cleared up. So far no motive has been discov- cred why Dean should voluntarily dis appear and his well known affection for his mother and the desirable position he | field in the factory are the strongest kind of motives why he would not leave in this way. These facts only add to the mystery that his friends and shopmates hope will soon be satis- 1 factorily explained.

Speedway Being Prepared for Races
 This Afternoon.
 The rain Of Saturday spoiled the rac- ing which had been scheduled for the afternoon and it was thought that there would be no further racing until an- other fall of snow. This was mistake, however, as a party oe we'll known horsemen yesterday inspected the Goffe street speedway. They found that there was deep coating of ice on the entire length of the street but that it might be improved for racing by placing some loose snow on top. Tn consequence of this several men were kept at work all night last night carting snow on it and preparing it for the contests this after noon. There is sure to be some fine racing is the weather is propitious. A large number of the owners of fast horses of the city have interested them selves in the prospective races and in consequence there will be many start CTS. The judge for the afternoon will be Dr. Ross. The prizes offered for the races of last Wednesday will be up for the winners again to-day and there will be both pacing and trotting races.

OBITUARY NOTES.
Charles Austin Warren.

Charles Austin Warren. one of New Haven's oldest and best known and most prominent real estate business men died at his late residence, 644 State street, at 1 o'clock, Friday morning. He had been ailing for about a year. but
 was still able to attend to business. Up to few days previous to his death he
 was around and the demise may be at- tributed to a complication of diseases, together with old age.
 Deceased wes born at Cedar Hill, January 26, 1926. and had resided in this city ever since. He was the son os Dr. Sparrow Warren, who came to New Haven from Ashville, Mass. He obtained an education at the old Lan- casterian school here, but as his father died when he was twelve years Of age MT. Warren secured employment He was a strong type of the self-made man. For some years he conducted a pro- vision store in Fair Haven. and then took up the real estate business in which he was very successful. His foresight proved very advantageous, and III consequence MT. Warren secured many pieces Of property. which were then IIninproved and later became of much value.
 MT. Warren was one of the founders of the old State street railroad, and for twenty years was its president and one
 of the directors. The road was later sold to Boston and New York syndicate, and Mir. Warren was the only local di- rector who was chosen to the directo- rate of the syndicate. He was also vice
 president of the new company, continu- ing in that office until the road was pur-
 chased by the Fair Haven and West vile company. Deceased being of re- tiring disposition, never actively partic-
 iDating in politics or held public office.
 He will be we'll remembered by many of tie former employees of the State street road, and many will doubtless at-
 tend the funeral to show their last mark of respect.
 Tn 1850 MT. Warren was married, and
 of the union one daughter, who is now
 the wife of Rev. Dr. Andrew w. Archi-
 bald, of the Porter Congregational church, Brockton, Mass. survives. The
 grandchildren are Warren. a business man of Brockton, Kenneth, an instruc- tor in Mercersburg, Pa, academy. and
 Cecil, a member oe the class of 1905, Dartmouth. The grandchildren are all present to attend the funeral. For more than thirty years MT. and Mrs Warren have lived in their commodious home with it's ample grounds on State street, near Audubon street.. They previously resided for years on Warren Place, Cedar Hill. near State street.
 For years the deceased was associat- ed with the late Francis Donnelly, and the late Charles c. Blatchley in the ownership of tracts of land at Cedar Hill
 The funeral services will be held this morning at 11:30 o'clock at the late home and will be conducted by the Rev. Dr. Watson L. Phillips, pastor of the Church of the Redeemer. The burial will be on Tuesday morning in the fam fly lot in the Fair Haven Union cene- tery at the convenience of the family.

COLONEL TOTTEN AND PANAMA
 RAILROAD.


 To the Editor Of the Tribune:
 Sir: It was with great delight that I read the tribute paid to the career of Colonel George M. Totten by Gilbert Totten McMaster M. D., of New Ha- ven. Conn, which appeared in to-day's Tribune. His name is as much linked with the history of the Panama railroad as is that of De Lesesps with the canal, no matter who may be most prominent in the comparatively easy work of com pleting it now.
 When De Lesseps met Colonel Totten on the isthmus in the beginning of 1880. having invited him to be one of the en- gineers to lay out carefully the route on the spot he said: Colonel Totten, I salute you as the pioneer of the canal Your surveys and labors on the isthmus have been the first practical ones un- dertaken here, and they now serve us to carry out the york;
 In the New York office of the Panama Canal company can be seen map from the surveys of Colonel Totten, which was published in Jamaica, W. l., by Harrison, crown surveyor. in the year 1857, than which no better one has been made up to date, as regards the topog- raphy of the country M. De Lesseps, who was always appreciative of the services of others, gave Colonel Totten a position on the superior technical or engineering committee of the canal, with salary which, imagine, was valuable to him in his declining years, as he seemed to have been pretty much forgotten by the railroad company. It was always Q satisfaction to me to think that as long ago as 1879 I had helped to bring these two great men together Nathan Appleton.
