Wilkesbarre, where he secured en-
ployment with the railroad contract

Two days after Rizzolo was dis
charged from custody he went to
Poughkeepsie, n. Y, where he start
ed a commssary department for the
benefit of his fellow Italians who were
employed by Mr.. McFadden, who had
a railroad contract in that section of
New York Mike still had a passion
for making money quick. His pros
poets looked good.
But all the while Linden had two
employees at the elbow of Mike Riz-
zolo. Both of these fellows were Ital-
ians. One pretended to be half-wit-
ted and managed to be in the company
of Mike all the while. He not only
worked with him, but he ate and slept
with him. Rizzolo on his part not
only gave the man his confidence by
day, but he poured his incoherent
dreams into his willing ear by night
Detailed reports were sent to Linden
with religious regularity.
A few weeks after the crime Riz-

He must have had a smattering Of

learning" which is a dangerous thing"

before the alderman was not trial.
and that his discharge was far from
an acquittal But from the moment
h. was released his every footstep was
shadowed; every house that he en-.
tered was marked; every word that he
uttered was overheard. and every
penny that he spent was noted in
a little red book kept by one Of Lin
denis rubber-shoed sleuths.
Rizzolo seemed anything but des-
peiado. He was about "a years old
and rather agreeable looking. except
for his nose. which had discolora-
ton which won for him from his coun
trymen the nickname of Red No,A
Mike" He came to America fypm
Calabritto. in the province OF Avel.
linon, near Naples. In his ovo conn.
try he was apprenticed to n barber.
But he was restless and dissatisfied
with this employment and wanted to
come to the United States. where. he
had saard, money was to be picked UP
on the streets. On his arrival in
America he worked for awhile In New.

His assistant, Capt. E. J. Dougherty,

mo; we must get either a confes-
sion or sufficient evidence for a con-
viction."
At this critical stage of the game
the local authorities who had heard
OF the movements of Linden and his
assistants, re-arrested Rizzolo. Lin
den was not given to profanity but
some of the things he said on that oc-
casion were unprintable. He foresaw
trial and an acquittal-a fiasco a
miscarriage of justice. He went to
Thomas Quigley of Miners Mills.
Mr.. Quigley, you want the noun

Surely
Then go bail for Mike Rizzolo"

sum of $4,000, and the Italian was re-

played great rolls of greenbacks.
which were certainly not the profits of
his business in Poughkeepsie. Finally,
about the 18th OF January, Rizzoo
made elaborate plans for n trip to
Italy. He arranged to sail on the
goth of January. Linden resolved that
the Italian should never leave Amer
lea. He had ample evidence. He re.
solved to arrest him at once. So he
laid a trap to entice Mike to Phila.
delphia, thus bringing him within the
Jurisdiction of the court.
The Italian responded. As he alicht.
ed from the train, Linden came for.
ward to meet him. Rizzolo was
somewhat taken aback at the sight of
the detective. but his nerve did not
desert him.
What do you want?"
Il want you to help me out on n
little case I'm interested in" was the
significant response.
They drove down to the philade,.
phia office of the Pinkerton agency.
Linden Immediately escorted his man
into his private Office.

cant keep quiet any longer!"
And there in that little room, in
passionate words. he poured forth the
story of the atrocious double murder
on the Luzerne mountains.
1T was greed for gold" said Mike.

about him nervously. His glare rest

Ihe eyes of the veteran detective
looked down on the murderer accus-

turned around and was greeted with
the motto of the agency, We Never

Linden re-entered the room carrying
a legal-looking document in his hand.
1t was warrant for the arrest of the
Italian. Linden looked very solemn

The suspect arose, curious and fear

What is it?" he cried.
Linden put his broad hand on the

heap of crushed humanity
