crowded tenement that the gang
leader might obtain vengeance for
interference in love affair. was told
to detectives and representatives
from the district attorneys office
here today.
Alfred Lehman. Anthony Sadaitis
and Rocco Pucciarello, who have
confessed to having planted scores
of bombs and committed numerous
other crimes, told the story. Having
revealed the operations of the gang
of Black Handlers They explained
why the Hippodrome Moving Picture
Theatre, on Houston street, was fired
while attorneys we're waiting for the
trial Of Angelo Sylvestro for plant
ing a bomb, to be resumed.
Never heard the inside story OF
the burning Of the Hippodrome mo-
vie, did you?" asked Lehman. "The
place was burned because the jani-
tor, Joe The Wop. butted in on Giu-
seppe Farrara's love affair. Far
rara has skipped to Italy now, sc
you can't get him, and I'll tell the
yarn"
Lehman then told HON young
girl named Nellie Peccarro was ad.
mired by Farrara. but "her old man
objected" Farrara then proposed
that members Of the gang lSidnap III,

loon.
He said he would give us s10C
EACH continued Lehman. '"Three
of us undertook the job. We had
TO go through the Hippodrome to get
in back of the tenement Of 40 Hous-
ton. where the Peccarros lived. Joe
the WOp saw us hanging around and
got a gang to chase us away. Wher
we told Farrara, also known as Fay
what had happened, he was wild. He
swore he would croak the Wop. The
next day he gave us kerosene anC
benzine and told us to Fix" the thea
tire. We spread the stuff all over tn,
seats and floor. Fay threw a light
ed paper on the floor after the plac,
was full. The people poured out o.
the place and only a couple wer,
burned a little, and as someone turn
ed in an alarm quick, the fire was pu
out before the theatre was entirel!

That made Fay mad. He said if h,
couldn't have the girl nobody els'
would, and gave US the bomb to pu
in the hallway. He said It was stronl
enough to blow the whole place L
hell and didn't care if it did. HI
said he should worry il the who'll

hat Sylyestro is on trial. The bonn
tailed to go of.
Despite the statements made by hi
associates, Sylvestro appeared con
tident today. He was scheduled {

make a detailed denial of KNOWN
anything OF the long list Of crime

lessed. Lehman told the story of tn
burning of the moving picture theatr
and the attempt to blow up tn

NO CONFIDENCE
IN REGULARS
And Harmony Plan AS Reported
By Three Members of the
Last Legislature.

Nashville, Tenn, March IL
Three members of the last legis-
Ilature all of whom are representa-
tive citizens in their respective
sections and all of whom are OBJ
servant as to political conditions,
and who were in Nashville today
stated that their people-those
who are for law and order-are
not taking we'll to the harmony.
Senator Eugene Blakemore of
Bedford county said that he finds
no sentiment indicates his people
are ready to change plans and
trust the situation in the hands of
the so-called regulars. He says
his people believe that fusion
again is the safe plan.
Representative j. R. McWherter
of Weakly county said that senti-
ment is unchanged in his neck of
the woods, unless it has become
more strongly a fusion sentiment.
He said the cry of harmony had
not influenced the independents
and that their ranks are even
stronger today than at the last
election. Mr.. McWherter will not
be candidate for reelection,
however.
Representative w. w. Higgins
of Montgomery county was anoth-
er who says the independent fac
ton is standing pat and ready to
vote again as they did two years
ago. He says his people are not
ready to trust the reins of gov
eminent in the hands of the reg
ulars and that they have little
confidence in their cry that the
whiskey is ended.
