MoRGANToN i, March 25.-Three
Of the four Bla Hand suspects on
whom arms we found at the time
of their arrest aturlay. were given
preliminary he'd ings before Justice
A. B. Boughnef Tuesday afternoon.
AS all three col essed to the charge
of carrying con called weapons they
we're remanded b jail, In default Of
5000 bond each, Ito await the action
Of the grand iut at the May term of
court.
Nickola Terpolb, alias NicKo1a JUG
chero, admitted sthat he had carried
both razor and5a dirk, both Of which
he used in shaving himself. Antonio
Manduro plead guilty to carrying a
razor, as did also vlncenzo chiodo.
Upon the request OF the prosecuting
attorney, the 1ustice did not dispose
OF the cases. but aeld the accused for
the action of the igber court.
The other 10 ispects will be tried
as soon as ano her witness can be
located. This Witness has absented
himself from the community sudden
ly. but the authpFities hope to catch
him within a ID ofsp.; The other
member of the ms who was in
hiding in the niountains back of the
tin mill Monday has not been locat-
ed yet. He is d the company of an.
other Italian, a Witness whose pres,
ece at the heariNgs Of the other. sus-
poets is also much desired by the pros,
ecution.
Although a close watch has been
maintained at Dellslow and other
places where the two italians might
stop. no trace Of their whereabouts
has been discovered. When the al.
legged member of the gang now In
hiding is caught, all Of the suspected
members will be in custody except
three or four who left for Pennsyl-
vania two days before the arrests
were made.
Watching All Trains.
All incoming and outgoing trains
are being watched, but so far nc
trace Of the Jersey City Black Hand
er has been discovered. Although
the authorities have about given up
any hope of capturing the man, 1t
may be that he has not been warned
of the events which have transplred
in It9llan circles.
Many new members have been
added to the Italian.American Pro.
tective society, which has been form.
ed by local italians for the protec-
ton of the law abiding and peace.
able citizens of that nationality. When
the meeting was held Monday morn
