that she saw a murder enacted and
that it occurred in small orchard
between two houses The murderer
was small man and the murdered q
man Of larger proportions, thick chest
cd and his face indicated that he was
not very healthy. She also said that
the body Of Minichiello had been
buried in hole in a mound near
which there are four large trees She

ground had recently been torn up and
the officers will investigate the place
to learn If any of the bodies are hid.

While visiting the house last even
ing she stated that the home of Bavori
was one OF continual turmoil aud that
Joseph had visited the Bavori shack
on last Monday night and that quar-.
rel resulted Minichiello left tho
Bavori shack and was followed by Ba.
vori who struck him down with an
axe. The police attach considerable
credence to her story as it.verifies
some of the evidence previously secur.
ed. This woman says she tells the
police the story simply because they
are having such difficult time in
that she is not looking for notoriety
In any way. Since this vision was
seen OIL the night before the murder
WAS committed, the police believe
that some developments will take
place in the next twenty four hours.
The local party's statements are
partly borne out from statement
made last night by Mrs. Joseph Mini.
chiello who was seen by u reporter in
Coal Greek. She stated that she
heard the two men quarreling early
In the evening and heard the barking
Of the dog. At l0:30 the same night
the dog barked again but moro fur.
iously and 1 at O'Clock ut night the
dog was barking at II distance. She
also states that Joseph had secured
the services Of lawyer so that he
might protect his brothers interest In
the sale Of the property. At 1870
Tuesday morning Bavori was seen to
be driving home from the western part
OF the city and passed down Fifth
street.
Sheriff Esser tried to sweat Bavori
In the county Jail yesterday and was
told that Minichiello had shot three
times at Bsvori on Monday night but
that none Of the shots took effect.
Bavori says that le fell to the ground

away he got up and run into the
house. This In considered to be

II was learned yesterday afternoon
that Bavori had been in the habit Of

planned that it would take some time
to fit the girl ont and that IL he had
business on the streets that he could
call back in about an hour. Bavori
stated that he would not leave that
he was afraid the girl would runaway
from him. He remained at the store,
but this proves that he WAS either
'nsanely jealous of her or that she
would desert him..

This WAS done because on the
