SLAIN BY BLACK HAND
Hotel Man Dragged From
Cycle, Stabbed and Shot.
FIGHT FOR LIFE WITH GANG
Victim Fires Automatic Revolver
Until Overpowered.
DEED SEEN BY MAN AND GIRL
These Witnesses Unable to Give
Clear Account-Assailant Num-
bered Seven or Eight Men.

NEW YORK. August 13.-Pietro Barillo,
a well-to-do hotel man of Woodhaven,
l.. l., was dragged from his bicycle at
Lincoln road and Nostrand avenue in
Flatbush at 1 o'clock this morning and
stabbed and shot to death by band OF
men who had lain in ambush for him in a
clump of bushes at the side Of the road.
The police have arrested Antonio Del
Mario, his cousin.
The victims body was literally riddled
with stab and bullet wounds. From let
ters found on him it is practically certain
Barillo was the victim of the Black Hand.
The police believe the same band that
hacked and hewed man to PIECES shortly
after Christmas and dumped his dismem-
bered body, wrapped in oilcloth, near the
scene of today's crime killed the hotel
keeper.
1t was evident. though, from a half
emptied magazine revolver of the auto
matte type found tightly clutched in the
victims hand that he fought for his life
till the bullets and knives Of his assail-
ants brought him down.
Girl and Man Saw Deed Done.
There were two witnesses to Barillo's
stabbing. Mildred Busch, fifteen-year.
old girl of 322 Lincoln road and man
who happened to be passing. 1t was ap-
parent. though, after they had been
briefly examined by the police of the
Flatbush station that whatever they may
have seen has been scared out OF their
heads by horror Of the assassination.
All they could tell was that they saw
in the bright moonlight that lighted the
road a gang of men-seven or eight at
least, they say-leap from a dark clump
Of bushes and fall on Barillo like pack
of wolves. They heard Bartllos terrified
squeal and then saw his revolver spit fire.
of assassins. In the midst OF their knives
the hotel man sank into the road bleed
ing from a dozen wounds.
The first intimation of the murder that
reached the Flatbush police station came
from the Rev. F. x. Ludecke. a Catholic
priest He ran breathless into the station
and told the police that he had been in
formed of the crime by a. neighbor.
Object Not Robbery.
Lieut. Kane, in charge, sent reserves
out to search the section. while the body
vas brought into the station house. The
police went through the whole district
without turning up the slightest clue to
| the slayers.
From the fact that no trace of blood
was discovered 1t is adduced that none
of the assassins was hit by the bullets
from Barillo's revolver. though he evil
IDENTIFY fired several times.
The dead mans watch and a consider
able sum of money was found on him.
Several letters written in Italian and
some of them addressed in the red ink
of the Blank Hand were In his pockets.
What connection these have with his
murder is not yet established. when
they are translated 1t is believed they will
prove to be Black Hand missives.

DECIDES TO
RAISE MONEY
FOR LIBRARY

At rousing meeting of number
of young women of the city in the
Public Library building last evening,
it was decided that they should get
out and assist the library financially.
Plans were decided upon and the plan
accepted was to organize two teams
ecah to have a hustling captain. SC
that there would be more or less
rivalry in raising money.
One team will sell white tags and
the other another color on the Fourth
of July. The one team will try to
Guido the other insofar AS raising the
greater amount of money is concern
ed, and it is expected that on the
evening of the Fourth Of July quite
a nice little sum of money will
have been raised for the library.
The teams will be limited to ten
each, nine workers and captain.
The captains will also be classed AS
workers for they will hustle AS much
as the Other members of the company.
The tags will be printed in the next
day or two. Another meeting will be
held at O'Clock next Thursday after.
noon when the teams will be organic
cd and the captains appointed. Miss
Mabel Shaefer was present and state d
that this same kind of scheme was
tried in Bloomington, ILL.,, and more
than 81 900 was raised for one of the
hospitals. This is the first time that
Florence has ever had Tag Day, and
coming on the Fourth of Jul when
the citizens and visitors feel like
helping worthy cause, no doubt a
lot of money will be raisei during
the days work.
