Minneapolis, March 28.-Six I.
Italian CT Greek laborers were slash

their conntrymen at. 2I8 Tenth av-
enue, South, early today The bod.
les were found this morning, ,mutil-

that there was r no. robbery, points
to revenge as the motive Of the
crime. The tragedy occurred in q

ians, or Greeks, recently. The new
tenants were absent daytime, but
were together every evening. :
It is believed the nine men con
stituted a Malta OF Black Hand Or
ganization and, were searching the
city for man marked for death.
The gang evidently found th.ir
man last night, for there were three
new faces among them : when they
returned, from Yesterdays search.
The evening was spent quietly.
At midnight, however, a fight start.
ed, evidently lasting but q few min.
utes. Soon afterward six men were
seen to leave.
This morning, whenl the police
changed beats, the new officer heard
that six men were seen running
from the building. He broke in
the door and there discovered that
wholesale murder had been done.
In the center Of. the dark snd dingy
room lay, side by side, four dead
bodies. Blood lay in thick pools
ali about the room. The officer lit.
orally waded through it to reach
the bodies. He found three long,
black handled knives beside the
bodiee.
The murdefers bad evidettIy let
the injured bleed to death, for the
wounds were not deep, but, rather
in long, systematic sla-hts, which
run lengthwise along the bodies
The faces were mutilated. None ol
the wounds were deep enough to be
fatal, but the loss of blood must
have been trightful.
When the search was concluded

son went into the cellar. Here two

story that the government got a line
on Puter. 1t was a strenuous chase,
which for the moment seems to
have failed. Puter, so it is said,
has declared that be would kill
himself before going to jail.
1t is now known that Puter is
wanted here on an indictment found
last year. 1t is because he knows
that be faces serious charge here
in Oregon as we'll as elsewhere that
he is making such a desperate effort
to escape.
