Frank Licausi, who ran saloon at No.
20i Forsyth street. was killed there last
night while he was waiting on customers
In a rear room. The police do not know
who killed him. but they arrested three
Of the men who were In the place at the
time and detained them as material Wit
ncsscs.
According 10 the three men, Licausi

courtyard II was apparent that shot
gun had been used, Tor three large bull
lets were found In the body and only one
shot was heard. Several other bullets
entered the wooden partition used on
sundays TO shut off the barroom..
Tho police say the killing OF Licausi
makes the third murder In tho saloon
and tae second within the year. Last
January Stefano Salvini was shot just as

ing public works Of various kinds and
investing In Russian securities gener-
ally.

Of government guaranteed railway anu
municipal loans to a total OF upward
of 100000 sterling on the London
market
The chairman OF the Anglo Russian
trust is Mr.. Crisp. The trust was
formed last year by the Anslo-Rus-
sian Bank, with an issued capital OF
fi.2OO,0O0 sterling. Mr.. Crisp is chair
mhn also OF the Russian Commercial
and Industrial Bank of st. Petersburg.

ment has notified the six-power group
Of bankers that unless they advanced

payments due on September - the
government would be compelled To
avail itself of the London loan. The
group declined, whereupon the govern
ment drew on the London instalment.

United states and China. has addressed
an open letter TO President Taft In which
