BLACK HANDS SLAY
SPY SENT TO ITALY
Bingham'S Plans TO Break
Up Band Blocked by
Murder.
Continued from First Page.)

clared by the New York police today
to prove absolutely their contention
that the ramifications OF the so-called
Black Hand In every section of the
country are directed from {. central
body" in Palermo, and that most of
the tribute exacted here goes to the
Sicilian bandits who have piled their
trade there for centuries
Police Commissioner Bingham IS in
Washington. but his deputy. Arthur
Woods. declared today that ae is try
ing to secure word from the American
minister to Rome.
Petrosino's murder shows Just how
good an organization the Black Hand
ers have. Only three people in the
United States knew just where ne was
in Italy, his wife, Commissioner Bing-
ham. and Deputy Commissioner Woods.
Bingham had furnished him the funds
to make the trip with from a secret
contribution 70 the commissioner by
leading fnanciers, who are said TO in
clude Andrew Carnegie. w K. Van
derbIlt, z. H. Hartman, and Morris
X. JessUp.
Every PrecautiOn Taken
Every big police department in the
United States had been consulted as TO
their knowledge Of the Black Hand pro-
cedure and every suggestion received in
this cit. indicated that the Black Hand
headquarters were in Sicily. while they
had branches in this city, Chicago, Den
Yer, and New Orleans. The New York
leaders were followed and the trail led
TO Jersey City house, where Petrosino
seized certain documents that started
him on the trip that ended in his death.
These documents. now in the possession
of the police department here, contain
the names Of inner circle OF ;he Black
Hand, and IL is alleged that some Of
these names are of very prominent
members of the Italian nobility
The death of Petrosino is expected TO
result In an organized effort by the
ponce departments of the United States
on the Black Hand in this country Al
ready the heads OF the local department
are IN communication with the heads OF
police in other cities, and plans are on
loot for complete cooperation.
Is Kept Secret.
Just what will be done in this con
nection Is a closely guarded secret, but
wholesale arrests Of Italian criminals IN
this country car be looked for in the
near future. The New York police are
aroused as never before, and open
threats are being made by Petrosino's
associates in the Italian detective bu-
reau, of which he was the head. until
relieved 10 take up this special work
1t is believed that Petrosino, who sail
ed from this city for Sicily. was trailed
by agents Of the Black Hand. and
marked for slaughter for the purpose
OF securing the information that they
knew he possessed he knew that his
every move was watched, but insisted
that he could take care or himself, ard
the fact that he managed TO use his
revolver before he Was himself killed.
leads 70 the hope here that he managed
to account for some OF his asSailantS
before he was killed.

The State Department received a dis
patch from Ambassador Griscom about
noon today transmitting the report from
Consul Bishop at Palermo announcing
the assassination of Petrosino. What
ever action this Government will take

stated that any such announcement
made now would be premature.
Chief Wilkie Of the Secret Service was
much shocked 10 hear Of the assassina-
ton Of Petrosino. The chief said that
the Italian had never been employed by
the Secret Service Bureau directly. but
that his work had beer Of great benefit
to Federal authorities on numerous
occasions.

.PAPKE DENIES STORY
Friends of Carl Anderson
Here Believe Is Just
the Same.

Positive denial Of the report that
Carl Anderson of Hammond defeated
Billy Papke in private bout has come
from Hot Springs. where the bout was
supposed TO have been put on.
When the report was received in
Hammond it was to the effect that
Frank Green of West Hammond had
received a telegram from Hot Springs
from Anderson, informing him of the
fight
There were apparently any number of
local fight fans who were willing to
confirm the report In fact, on the
evening of the fight between Dick F'itz-
patrick and Jimmy Clabby, in West
Hammond, every one took it for grant
ed that Anderson had put away the
shifty Spring Valley fighter.
The following telegram from the sup
posed scene of the fight gives the truth
about these rumors:
Hot Springs, Ark. March 3.-There
is absolutely no truth in the statement
sent out from this point that Billy
Papke was knocked out by Carl An
derson here in a private bout. The
story was a fake pure and simple.
Papke has departed for Los Angeles,
but before leaving stated positively he
ildd never uOHneu the gloves mere eX-
cept in the Palace Bath House gym
nasium. which is public institution,
and always filed with spectators when
the boxers are at work there.
The Chicago Journal says
Little Kid Harris (Tommy Gary), the
South Chicago bantam weight crack.
is home from Hot Springs. and brings
news that is startling. If true The
Kid makes this statement: TT was
reported at Hot Springs, and generally
accepted as a fact that Carl Anderson
of Hammond knocked Billy Papke out
In five rounds in a private fight a few
days ago They boxed according to
the story I heard before a select crowd
which paid big price per head for the
battle. Papke, of course, thinking An
derson was the same mark he once put
out in a poke Anderson, so they say,
beat him to it. and knocked him cold
in the fifth. While 1 can't swear that
this is the actual fact, such was the
report at Hot Springs, and l have re-
ceived letters to the same effect since
1 got home"
