all the rest of the household. For an

AS MAN WHO SHOT
PRESQUE isle men

Presque Isle, Me-, April 2l.-Tony De-
Vito, who was arraigned before Trial
Justice Jerome B. Clark, charged with
shooting Zinna and Mangini. has been
grand jury. After the arrangement De-
Vito was taken to the Tedescos house,
where the wounded men We're lying. They
identified him positively, they said, and
after probable cause was found he was
remanded to Jail to await the action of
the grand jury.
The attempted killing on Chapman
street Saturday evening resulted in the
serious wounding by shooting of two
Italians and may furnish a sensation
of murder trial, as one of the victims
of the affair is still in u critical condition
and his wounds may result fatally.
Philip Tedesco, Nicholas Zinna and Pc
ter Mangini came uptown about o'clock
to do some trading and started on their
return about SIS. When opposite the b.
& a. freight shed they commenced walk
ing on the track for the remainder of the
way AT this point shot was heard and
bullet whistled close by Tedesees face
and struck in the sand. Tedesco immedi-
ately took to his heels but the other men,
being a little distance away, paid no at
tention until regular fuslade of shots
warned them that they We're targets.
Peter Mangini was hit in the right hip,
the bullet following the bone around but
not breaking it.
Zinna, who was running rapidly, looked
back and claims that by the flash of the
gun he saw the face of Tony Devito and
recognized him. At this point he was hit
and wounded severely, the bullet enter
ing about two inches to the left of the
spine and going completely through his
body, breaking the 18th rib and coming
out just below the sternum.
Znna was taken to Tedesco's house on
Chapman street and a physician called
He was suffering considerably Tuesday

In expectation of death, Zinna signed a
statement duplicating DeVito. who was
Immediately arrested by officers Everett
and Burke. VI arrants are also out for
the arrest of Latorra. and the county is
being secured to find him.

tests his innocence
