POSTOFFICE CLERKS
AWAIT PROMOTION
Commission to Pass on Eff
fciency Is Behind In
Its Work.

Since the big gray structure at the
corner of Eleventh and Pennsylvania
avenue called the Postofhce Depart
ment has been in existence. the custom
has been to promote certain clerks who
have mad good efficiency records during
the year on July ] until the practice
has become almost a part Of the in
stitutionaI routine. The clerks count
months ahead on the extra money they
will get.
But this year things are different The
commission that passes on efficiency, a
quality upon which promotions are bas-
ed. have gotten behind in their work
and the list Of names of the candidates
has not bee. made up. Nor will il be
made up until the latter part OF the
month.
In the Fourth Assistant Postmaster
Generals office there are nine fewer
places provided for the year 1911 than
for 1910. Each position pays $500. To
was learned this morning that these
nine surplus clerks would not lose their
position as the department had va
cancies held up for them for some
time.

Italian is Found Guilty of
Assault With Intent to
Do Bodily Harm
NO DECISION ON BLACK HAND"

Giuseppe Riggio, a former Kenosha
italian who has been on trial in Mil
waukee for the past week on charges
of assault with intent to murder An
tonic Polinzo, was found guilty of as
sault with intent to do great bodily
harm by a jury in the municipal court
there late Saturday afternoon. The
italian was not sentenced as the at
torneys representing him at once fled
a motion for new trial and this mo-
tion will be argued on next Thursday.
Interest was taken in the case on ac-
count of the fact that Riggio was al
legged to have been a leader in a
+" Black Hand" organization in Mil
waukee. The assault charged was
committed more than year ago and it
was alleged that after the assault Rig
gio came to Kenosha and resided in
this city until he went back to Mil
waukee and submitted to arrest. 1t
was alleged by the state that Riggio
attempted to kill Pollinzo when he
refused to unite with the Blank Hand.
The defense declared that no mention
of the society had even been made be
tween the two men and the jury did
not pass on this phase of the question
in fixing its verdict. Pollinzo himself
on the stand declared that Riggio was
a leader of the organization and that
it had many members in Milwaukee
and other cities in the state. He
made no direct statement in regard to
the existence. Of a chapter of the Black
Hand in Kenosha.

is certain that the fight between the

attention. Conley came out of the
fight with Webster without a scratch

Secures the Right to Enter Kenosha
Lighting Field,

Backed by resolution of the COM
mon council pledging the support of
the City Of Kenosha, the Kenosha
Electric Railway Company today pre-
scented to the Wisconsin State Railroad
Commission at Madison an application
for a certificate of necessity and con-
venience for the city council Of Keno
sba to give the company franchise
to erect competing lighting system
in Kenosha. The application is sign
ed by H. E. Spalding as president and
Walter Drew as attorney for the com
pany and by Mayor M. j. Scholey and
City Attorney Calvin Stewart, repre-
senting the city of Kenosha. 1t is
generally believed that the application
Of the company to the railway commits
sion is taken with the idea that the
court will uphold the decision of Judge
Belden in regard to the present status
of the company's rights and if the
commission acts favorably on the APP
plication it would be possible for the
company to secure a new franchise be
fore the court decision is rendered
The application of the company will
be of interest for future reference and
a portion of it is given as follows:
After reciting the facts in regard TO
the Kenosha Electric Railway Company
the application says:
"That the Kenosha Gas and Electric
Company, corporation, is engaged as
a public utility, and under an indie
terminate permit, as provided by Chap
