Mrs, Horrowitz said that on April
Is an Italian rented the fiat and later
moved in a few pieces of furniture,
but never lived there. He explained
that he was expecting his wife from
Italy. A few days ago he said she had
arrived but was detained on Ellis ISL
and because something was the matter
with her boys eyes.
Tuesday Mrs. Horrowitz noticed that
a new lock had been put on the parlor
door. and the tenant said he had OBJ
tanned it because his wife would be
alone nights. She could not be sure
that either of the men who ran out
after the shooting was her tenant.
The police believe that the four bull
lets were fired at the barber's shop
and we're meant to assassinate an
Italian who was in the shop. Lieuten-
ami Uacrlc took the rifles to the sta
tion house and they will be examined
for finger prints.

will not yet tell, who was the intended
victim. and expect assistance from
him in running down the rIfemen as
