SEQUEL to kidnapinu,

New York, Nov. 29-The kidnapping
case originating five years ago in

loon, the front of which was blown in
ward, badly damaged adjacent stores,
hurled sleepers in the tenements above

for blocks around. The police re-
serves had their hands full quieting

nocked to the streets by hundreds

theory of the animus behind the out
rage. About five years ago, he said,
his son Peitro, 6 years old, was kid
mapped and he has never heard from
him. The police were notified and
Lieutenant Petrosino worked on the
case. lie Barbera received many let
tiers threatening his life if large sum
of money was not paid for the return
