COLLJTRA Is HELD AS
BLACK-HAND SUSPECT

Joe Collura, No. SO Catherine.st., ar
rested Saturday night on suspicion OF
being the owner OF sawed-off shot
gun, found in an alley near Monroe
ave. and Rivard-st, was positively
identified. Sunday night, as one OF a
pair OF Italians who had been lurking
around In the alley where the gun was
found when police received a tip to
investigate the Italians.
Detectives Ellenstein and Tremon-
tie were sent to investigate the tip,
that came over the telephone. Col.
lura was found In the alley. He said
he was on the way TO get some medi-
cine for his wife.
The shotgun lay in a wagon, that
stood about six feet back from the
alley mouth.
That Collura and his unidentified
companion were lying in wait for
some victim TO pass the alley, is the
theory OF the police.
That the intended victim was Ferdi.
nand Palma, banker, who was ter
ribly wounded by a charge OF buck
shot fired through tine window OF his
bank some time ago, is one surmise,
which was strengthened when The
police received telephone message
Sunday, asking where Palma could
be found. The person inquiring would
not tell his name, and rang of when
questioned.

ALDERMEN SHY AT
LIQUOR BOARD JOBS
Littlefield May Be Forced To
Name Entirely New Commit
tee-Present One Backs Out

II is likely that Aid Sherman Lit
tleield, who Is slated TO be the next
president OF the common council, will
have TO appoint an entirely new liquor
committee. None OF the present mem
bers Is anxious TO serve again on the
and some have stated pos
itiyely that they will not remain on
the committee another year.
Aid Harry j. Dingeman, president
of the council, who made such fine
record OF the 1913 liquor committee,
cutting out SO saloons, can have the
chairmanship OF the new committee
II he will accept, but he is not sure
that he wants the job.
There are two reasons why alder
men do not like TO serve on the liquor
committee, first. because the work Is
hard and they are pestered by saloon
keepers, license seekers and brewery
representatives from one years end
TO the other. and, secondly, because
the committee is always open TO hos
tile criticism. AS one member OF the
present committee aptly expressed it,
Monday morning. I'VE are damned IL
we do, and damned IL We don't"
The new committee will be up
against il as far as reducing the num-
Der OF saloons is concerned, The po-
lice policy regarding the enforcement
of the Warner-Cramton law is not
such that many saloonkeepers will
be reported as undesirables. Under
reasonable" regulation the saloons
are doing business on Sundays and
holidays unmolested. Also. saloon
keepers are learning TO keep within
the law as far as running their sa-
looms in an orderly manner is con-
cerned. The new committee Will
likely work without special inves-
tigator, depending largely upon police
reports for the character OF saloons.
The Juggling OF licenses, which is
now down to fine science, will him
der the committee in following the
law on deaths and license sales.
