that because Frontera and GaetanO

of the building. had been having
trouble cover bill OF $40, which
Mano said Frontera owed him, From
terra might have caused the explosion
for revenge.
The police, however, have made
other arrests and they attach some
importance TO the apprehension ot
Samuel Butere. 27 years old, living at
No. AZ Fort-st. east. The police were
told prior 10 his arrest that he haG
visited Mano In his store short time
AGO and declared that he had been
sent there by Frontera for the pur-
pose OF advising Mano that ii set
tlement were not made with From
terra, whose wife is suing Gaetano
Mano for damages in the circuit
court, there would be trouble. Mrs.
Frontera claims that she was injured
by Mano during row between him
and her husband
Butere was brought before Mano in
police headquarters, Thursday after
noon, and the police say that he OK
planned he was only joking when he
told Mano there would be trouble for
him IL he failed to settle with From
terra; that he was merely trying in
this way TO bring about peace be-
tween Frontera and Mano.

complains that the police are show
ing no judgment in making arrests;
that men of good standing in the city
are being taken into custody without
sufiiclent cause. He also takes oc-
casion to remark that while the po-
lice recently stopped him from con-
ducting a candy rattle, he later saw
SIX policemen and detectives in citi-
zens clothing and two in uniform at
