Records kept by DIR. Overlook show
that since November, 1908, when the
first systematic work began, the wage

KANSAS CITY, Mo, April 3.-kan-
sas City's Little Italy was raided sun
day. Fifty-eight men were arrested,
scores of weapons and much ammuni-
tion We're seized and many houses

of Holy Rosary church were searched.
The raid was made by fifty-five
policemen, headed by Chief Griffin.
1t was the outcome Of the murder last
Tuesday of Joseph Raimo, an Italian
policeman, who was shot from am
bush.
The usual frightened silence main
tanned by Italians in the neighbor-
hood, where the murder was com
mitted, and the fact that several 9th
er mysterious murders have been con'
mitted recently in the Italian colony
lead to the belief that criminal
organization existed among loca
Italians. The result Of the raid ac
cording to TIL police, confirms this
theory
The weapons confiscated consisted
of shotguns. rifles. revolvers ant
knives of almost every description
