POLICE GET MAN LONG
WANTED AS k|DNAPPER
Believe Arrest Will Solve Not a
Few of Recent Disappear
anCe Mysteries.
FIND A REVOLVER ON HIM
Valuable Jewelry and 500 in
His Pockets Supposed to
Have Been Received
in Ransoms.

In the arrest last night Of Vito Micelll.
whom the police know by the names Of
Pietro Palazzolo and Pietro Mallei, In
spector Hughes. OF the Detective Bureau,
believes he has captured the man who
kidnapped Michele Scimeca, the three
year-old son of Dr Mariana Scimeca, OF
No. Prince street, in June OF last year,
and also was concerned I'm the kidnap
ping of VincenzO ISABELLA, who disap-
peared from his home, No, 3S9 Broome
street, in July Of this year, and Of Pietro
Quatrone, OF No. 119 Elizabeth street,
who disappeared last month.
According to the story told at the De-
tective Bureau, after the kidnapping of
the ScimeCa boy suspicion was directed
toward Micelli as having had something
to do with the affair. Detectives Carrao.
CastanO and Dondero were assigned to
the case. Micelli. it is said. soon found
the trail the officers were pursuing too
hot for him and set sail for Italy just
as he was about to be apprehended.
In the mean time, however, the police
say, a ransom Of $1,750 had been paid
by young Scimeca's parents, and the
boy had been picked up in West 59th
street by his grandmother. The greater
part of the ransom money is supposed to
have found its way into Micelli's pockets.
In January Of this year Micelli re-
turned to this country and, still under
the eye of the police. was traced 10 Buff
e., Nsha ba
trail was lost.
After the disappearance of the Sa-
bella boy Inspector Hughes told the de-
tectives on the case that they must land
their man at once. Last night the vigil
Of the detectives was rewarded when
they saw Micell standing at Delaney
and Norfolk streets. They Immediately
pounced upon him and led him to Head
quarters.
NIicelu was reticent at first, saying
that he did not understand English.
Then the officers began TO search him
an hauled a revolver from one Of his
pockets. This aroused the prisoner, who,
II would seem, had heard OF the Sullivan
THAT gun was not In my Pocket! / am
being made the goat"
Several diamond rings and other jew
elry and 500 in cash also were found on
NJ celi. according To the police. They
gave IT as their opinion that the money
and jewelry were part OF the payment
Miceli had received in ransoms.
After his examination at Headquarters
Miceni was taken To the Elizabeth street
police station. where he was locked up
on charges Of kidnapping and carrying
a concealed weapon. The warrant for
his arrest was ISSUED in October, 1910.
by MAGISTRATE Barlow on the same day
that the prisoner sailed for Italy.
The records at Headquarters show that
Nicelli was sent o. the Elmira Reforma-
tory i'm 1908 for burglary committed
IN an East Side fiat. His picture Is In
the Rogues' Gallery.

TIGER JAMS CHARTER
THROUGH ASSEMBLY
Forces Ashton Parker to Change
Vote Needed to Assure
Its Passage.
ROLLCALL LONG HELD UP
Friends of Charter Hopeful Of
Passage by Senate To day
Apportionment Likely to
Go Through.
[Ry reIegIaph TO The Tribune. ]

Albany, Sept. 2S.-As at every critical
period this year. Tammany smashed the
insurgent Democratic opposition to
pieces tonight and jammed the Muir
ply -Gaynor charter for New York City
through the Assembly by a vote Of 16
TO 81. For several hours II was an open
question whether even all the resources
the organization" had brought in to
play during the day would win. The
leaders who were fighting for the char
ter held up the final rollCall for more
than half an hour while the town was
secured for one missing Assembyman.
The winning Of the vote which passed
the charter was triumph OF organiza-
ton tactics Ashton Parker, Democrat,
who represents the 10Th District Of New
York County, ordinarily strongly Repub-
lican, had voted against the charter.
When IL was seen that without one more
vote the charter must fail Assemblyman
A. f. Smith, the Tammany floor leader,
and half q dozen others gathered around
Parkers desk, implorng him TO switch.
Finally, he consented to do so, and his
name was called a second time. at the
end of the absentee list.
I'm In an extremely embarrassing
position" the young Assembyman de-
clared, and his nervous manner bore him
out. II have placed my opinion Of this
charter against that Of my organization
and men who have given months OF
study to 1t. II the vote were not so
close-I understand my vote is necessary
to pass it'd not change. 1 do not ap-
prove of the haste and confusion which
have characterized the consideration Of
the charter But even If this house
adopts it, 1t will have to pass the Sea-
ate; so as my vote will not pass 1t
finally l will change and vote for it."
He sat down, his face very red. while
the Tammany legislators clapped their
hands loudly Speaker Frisbie cast the
decisive seventy-sixth ballot.
Friends Of Charter Hopeful.
The charters advocates tonight are
declaring that It will have comparatively
easy sailing in the Senate tomorrow.
It's passage by the Assembly. they say.
Will make It very easy to get the neces-
sary votes TO pass IL in the upper house.
