ITALIAN SLASHES THE THROATS
OF FIVE AND ESCAPES

NEW YORK. May "a sixteen-year-
old boy. known only as Carmello and en-
ployed in a barger shop in Brooklyn. earl,
today cut the throats Of his employer.
Antonio Peraso; Mrs Peraso and three
BARRIERS while they lay asleep in Peraso' q
apartment at 1O7 Fulton street. The
wounds Of Peraso and his wife are be-
lieved to be mortal. while those of the
three BARRIERS are serious, but probably
not fatal. The boy escaped.
The police have a theory that the boy
was an agent of a Black Hand gang
which had been demanding money Of Pc
raso under threat of doing him injury
and that the blackmailers placed the boy
in the shop in order to punish Peraso for
his refusal to satisfy their demands.
Carmello used a razor in his attack
upon the barber and his employees. Frank
Straino, Michael Rebento and Joseph
Macero. the three BARRIERS. were first at
tackled by the boy. Straf1no was awak-
ened from his sleep by a stab in the neck.
and before he could resist the boy drew
q razor across his throat, innicting q sc
we're. wound. He was still conscious and
saw the boy as he crept to the bedsides
OF Rebento and Macero and cut their
threats while they slept.
Victims Were Asleep.
Peraso. who with his wife was asleep
in an adjoining room, was awakened by
a stab wound in his neck. and engaged
the boy in a desperate struggle for his
life. The man was unarmed. and the
boy. clutching razor in his hand,
slashed his employer several times about
the face. neck and hands. inflictine
wounds from which Peraso suffered great
loss of blood.
The fight was going against the barber
when his three assistants staggered into
they drove him from the rooms into the
street. and then managed to summon
assistance.
1t was then found that Mrs. Peraso'a
throat had been cut, and that she was
lying in bed only partially conscious
while the fight with the apparently in
sane boy was in progress.

MANY GAMES

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER. Del, June So-Dovers first big
week in baseball was arranged to-day by
the new field manager, William l.. Sim
mons. Beside the schedule for this week
Dover has begun arrangements with Sea.
ford, Cambridge. Laurel, the duPonts and
others OF Wilmington, Salisbury and At.
lantic City.
Dover's team win lose David Zearfoss
who has fine offer from Cambridge as
playing captain at first base. Zearfoss has
gone TO look over the field and prospects.
Manager Simmons has given the con-
tract for a new grandstand with reserved
seats for 400 persons.
Fourth of July games will be played
with Dover's old rival, Camden. Camden
is one OF the first clubssin the State TO
organize and. in fact, seems to keep up
a perpetual organization. The Camdenites
are in the centre of the peach and small
fruit zone and are kept at work 50 hard
day and night. through the summer sea-
son that baseball is taken three times a
week as a tonic.
Camden will, therefore, play Dover at
Camden on Saturday morning at 1850.
Camden will come 10 Dover and Slay on
the new Dover grounds at o'clock in
the afternoon. and a real July 4 audience
will probably greet the players.
Frederica will play here on Saturday.
July II. Dover will play at Wilmington,
with DUPONT, on July Z.
EslIridge, one of Dover's pitchers. is
also a catcher. He is an athlete of hne
physique and moves like baseball games
were great sport, instead of a hard living.
