Man and Wife Are
Charged with the
Murder Of a Miner

Following an inquest conducted
by Coroner H. B. Buterbaugh
last evening into the murder of
Sam Rosso, who was fatally shot
at Nowrytown, near Iselin, Tues
day evening, Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Borgi were held to ans
wer for the crime at the
next term of criminal court.
The couple made a statement
to Sheriff Harry A. Boggs, in
which they declared that ROsso
had been paying attentions to
Mrs. Boigi and that the husband
was jealous. They talked the
matter over and decided that
the surest way of ending the
difficulty was to kill Rosso.
Following the shooting, the
Borgis fled to Salisbury on an
early train. They were captured
there and returned to Indiana
Tuesday afternoon.
Rosso is a miner and formerly
resided with the Borgis.
Mr.. and Mrs. Borgi are said to-
have hired an automobile and
gone to Iselin, where Rosso
worked in the mines. They wait
ed until he had returned from
his work, as they knew that Ros-
so must pass that way to get to
his home Shortly before 6 o.
clock he quit work and started
to his boarding house. When he
got within a short distance Of
Borgi and his wife both opened
fire upon him simultaneously.
Both Borgi and his wife, it is
maintained, emptied their re-
VOlVers and four Of the 10 shots
fired took effect, two entering
Rosso's breast, while two struck
him in the back.
Throwing away their revolvers
they ran through the town and
out the road towards Salisbury.
A short distance from lselin
they overlook George Hart, of
Salisbury, who was driving in
the direction they were proceed
ing. They asked him for a ride,
and with him drove to point
A short distance from Iselin

returning from Narrytown. They

to Blairsville, evidently with the
intention of taking the z o'clock
train out Of that place for Pitts
burgh. They missed that train,
but boarded another shortly be-
fore 2 o'clock.
Sheriff Boggs, Of this place
had learned of the movements
of the fugitiVes and he tele-
phoned to the constable at Salts

when it stopped at Salisbury and
placed the two under arrest.

E- e.
New York, Feb. 6.-Train service
halted in the subway twice within
twenty minutes tonight and New
York's underground tonight railway
system was in darkness each time for
several minutes as the result of -
short circuit in a cable box at the
Grand Central station. Thousands OF
passengers, with rumors of bomb plots
fresh in their minds, became alarmed.
but the lights were off only a few min
utes and the guards experienced little
difficulty in preserving order.
The accident, while not unusual
closely followed a general police order
for patrolmen to guard subway en-
frances and exits and search all sus-
picious persons carrying suit cases or
bundles.
While a rumor persisted that the
extra police guard was ordered as a
precaution against the carrying out OF
a suspected plot to blow up New York's
underground and elevated railways,
the police themselves treated the re-
port lightly.
In authoritative sources tonight it
was said the placing of extra police az
the various stations and exists was q
part of a new plan inaugurated by the
police to round up thieves. Publicity
was given the report that a bomb plot
was suspected caused a change in the
plan, it was said. and most of the
patrolmen were instructed to resume
their regular beats.
