Sicilian Tells a Story of the Black
Hand Plots

Chicago, May IA Sicilian, cap
tured by the police here tonight in the
search for the assailant of Detective
Gabriel Longbardi, leader of the
Black Hand squad, who narrowly es-
capped death last night, told a story
that may throw some light on the
murder of Lieut.. Joseph Petrosino of
the New York police, and also may
prevent similar attempt on the life OF
New Orleans city detective named
Dantonic.
The detectives, Petrosino, Long,
bardi and Dantonio, according to the
Sicilian's story, were marked for
death by the Black Hand society in
the east, months age. Petrosino was
killed in Italy after most careful
plot had been laid for him. Longbardi
has beer watched for weeks. The
New Orleans plot is still in the dark.
Two New York Italians, whose
identity is known to the police, came
here several weeks ago and opened
little grocery store in the Italian quar-
ter of the west side.
From here the Sicilians engineered
their plot against Longbardi. His
house was watched nightly. Last night
the detective noticed the men Prov
ling in the alley and went out unar1n
ed to ask them what they wanted. For
answer he was attacked with stiletto.
One man hit the detective in the head.
The others stabbed at Longbardi )
throat, but missed, and cut the arter-
les in the detectives left wrist. The
men then left, thinking they had NOR
