FASCIANO HELD
 WITHOUT BAIL Charge is First Degree Murder and Probable Clue is
 Found. SHOT ANTONIO PIzzUTO

The dealing of an extra card to his brother proved to be the incident which gave rise to the quarrel that resulted in the death of Antonio Pizzuto in Co., lumbus Place on July 5. Louis Fas- ciano accused of the murder of An tonic Pizzuto was today bound ov r without bonds, to the rext term of the Superior Court on the charge of mur- der in the first degree. Salvatore Pizzuto brother of the murdered man. was also bound over under 5000 bonds on the charge of aSSaulting Fasciano with intent to kill
 Medical Examiner Downs testified as to the course of the bullet which frac- tured Pizzuto's eighth rib on his left side and lodged at the base of the spine, Fasciano died within a few min utes after being shot.
 The only other witness called was Vingenzo Giuseffi, who was induced to come to this city by State Officer Vii relli from his home at 422 East 14th street, New York. Guisef1ii is a broth er-in-law of Faaciano, and was mak- ing him a visit with his wife and two children during the Fourth of July eel ebration. On Monday evening" July B. brothers, gathered in Guisseppi Trip odellas saloon on North Washing ton avenue, where a. game of cards was in dulged in. As they played they drank
 
 served and in a jovial mood one of the players suggested that Antonio Pizzuto should deal the cards and the mar holding the high hand should be first boss,'' while the holder of the second best hand should be the 'sec- on bosS.''
 In dealing Antonio deftly passed an extra card to his brother Salvatore. Fasciano's quick eye saw the act. He objected. The brothers claimed it was a mistake. One word led to another caused Salvatore to pick up a billiard cue and strike Fasciano on the head. With blood flowing from the wound Fasciano later drew his revolver and fired the shot that caused Pizzuto' S death. The brother, incensed at the sight of blood flowing from Antonio's side, rushed upon F'asciano and stabbed him three times.

Frame Warehouse on IWenyl-elghlh
Street Burned.
WIND CARRIES THE FLAMES AWAY
Building, Which Was Owned by 1. p.
Stearnes, Was Unoccupied and Not
Insured-Larse Crowd Attracted to
the Scene.

The Twenty eighth street bridge
was threatened last night when a
frame warehouse, owned by Mr.. j. r.
Stearnes and located at Twenty
eight street and Virginia avenue. ad'
Joining the bridge, was destroyed by
fire Fortunately the wind was blow
ing from the south, and the fianes
were carried away from the bridge
If the wind had been from norlher-
ly direction. the bridge probably
would have been considerably dam
aged. In spite of the quick work OF
the firemen.
The Central engine company re-
sponded to an alarm, and extinguish
ed the flames soon after It's arrival.
The fire had gained considerable
Roadway, however, and the building
was enveloped in flames before the
company could reach the scene.
The building was unoccupied and
contained only few barrels of warn
ish, some pitch and some Grated po-
tatoes. The loss Is not covered by
insurance.
Fire Chief Stowe said last night
that he had no idea how the fire
originated. 1t is thought possible thai
sparks from engines on the railroad
yard set the building afire.
The fire. occurring about $3.50
o'clock, attracted large crowd to the
scene.
