Cleveland, o., March 4.-Simon Fish
Ell cleaned up more than 100000 in the
sale OF the Fishel Brewing Co. to
the Cleveland &C Sandusky Co.
This is his assertion in a formal
statement issued Monday. The COM
pany was capitalized at 100000 with
but $221,000 worth issued. The brew
cry was started in 1905 to fight the
combine, and now in selling out the
Fishel company stockholders received
2 to on every dollar they invested.
The difference between this $442, 900
and the $S5O,o0O paid by the Cleveland

THEBLACKHAND
May Have Been Respon-
sible For Death of
Unknown Man.
MYSTERY OF THE WOODS

The finding of the body or an un-
identified Italian hanging from a tree
| in Holbein's woods, about s miles
north Of Canton Monday noon, brings
to light the probability of a Black
Hand society in Canton.
Although no actual proof Of the ex-
istence of Black Hand society has
yet been produced it Is the belief of
some of the more educated Italians
of Canton that such society is in
existence in and about Canton. Sew
eral prominent Italians, when inter
viewed last evening were emphatic in
their statement that they believe that
such an organization exists here.
None however would state that they
had been threatened. What the
grounds for their belief actually are
is not known but from the earnesiness
of their statements 1t is believed that
some of them have been threatened
The finding of the body of the un-
identified Italian at Holbeins shows
a possibility of the existence of the
much feared organization. The body
when found was stripped or every
thing that might lead to Identification
and the condition of the body itsel'
showed that it had been hanging from
its suspended position for several days
or possibly week A strong leather
belt, such as worn by Italian laborers
