HAVANA POLICE CHIEF
SHOT BY The GOVERNOR
Gen. Riva Mortally Wounded
by Enemies for Closing
Gambling Club.

HAVANA, July Gen. Armundo Riva,
chief Of police Of Havana. was shot and
probably mortully wounded by Gov.
Asbert OF Havana province and others
who had been angered by the recent
action Of the chief in closing up a
political gambling club.
The Chief of Police was driving on
the Prado with his two small children
when he met an automobile in which
were seated Gov. Asbert. Representative
Arias and Senator Vidal Morales. The
automobile was turned 80 az to block
the progress of the chiefs carriage
The occupants OF the automobile hurled
Insults at the chief and then drew re-
volvers and began firing. Twenty shots
or more were fired.
Rtva attempted 20 use his body as a
shield for his children and received a
bullet in the stomach which perforated
the intestines In four places Another
bullet struck him in the face
II Is not likely that Chief Riva will
survive the night. The operation Of
laparOtomy WAS performed at the hos
pital.
President Meuocal. who hurried to the
palace after the shooting. held a long
Cabinet council All the gambling dens
we're closed up and 4 squadron OF cav
airy II patrolling the streets.
After the shooting Chief Riva made
declaration in which he said that Coy.
Asbert and Senator Vidal Morales had
shot him. The chiefs pistol had not
been discharged nor did he draw IT,
Aras and Vidal Morales were arrested
Asbert was arrested in suburb Of
Havana. All three men were arraigned
in night court.
Chief Riva was one of the best and
most honorable officers of the army
and made the grafters and gamblers
hate him by his conscientious enforce
m-nt Of the laws. Last Friday night
he raided the Asbert Club, which un.
der the guise OF being the political
headquarters OF the Asbcrtlstas. is
really nothing but gambling house
The chief arrested a score OF the gam
bling politicians. all Of whom were
fined. The attempt on the chiefs life
was the sequel to this raid.
The Cabinet decided that Congress
slonal immunity will not apply in the
matter Of arresting Senator Vidal
Morales and Representative Arias. as
the Congress Is not now in session. but
the men cannot be tried. according to
one member Of the Cabinet, without
permission OF Congress. This Congress
has always refused to grant. The SUI
preme Court was hurriedly convened
and Is considering the case OF Gov.
Asbert. 1t will probably order his de-
tention. and meanwhile he will be sus-
pended from office.
