sci for the defendants. Testimony
was offered 20 show that Ernest NJ.

MYSTERY SURROUNDS
DEATH OF BRONDI
Three Bullet Wounds in
Body of Man Said TO
Have Shot Himself
POLICE EXPECTED TO
MAKE SOME ARRESTS

Although Mrs. John Caiglia, of No.
7O2 Bayard avenue. claims she saw
Dominick Brondi or Bionti, aged As
years, shoot himself in front of her
house last night, firing but one shot
causing almost instant death. post
mortem examination made today
showed that he had been shot three
times with a 81 calibre revolver, one
bullet going through the heart. The
other bullet wounds, according to the
police could hardly have been self-in-
ficted. as all were in vital places.
Brondi, who was a stone mason,
and lived in Grant avenue near Ninth
street, either shot himself, or was
shot by some one else, after Frank
Nardi, of No. 7O2 Bayard avenue had
been stabbed in the back, arm and
side, and John Caiglis of the same
address, had been shot in the knee.
The shooting so far is shouded in
mystery. No arrests have been made,
but according to the police some
startling information has been re-
ceived that will lead to arrests be-
ing made this afternoon.
Patrolmen on the district in which
the shooting took place have receiv-
ed information that it was about 9
O'Clock last night when Brondi went
to the home OF the other two men
and started to talk with them on the
porch. Suddenly all began talking
loudly and excitedly. The next instant
fight started and Nardi received a
stab wound in the back, arm and
side.
Mrs. Caiglia claims Brondi did the
cutting and after injuring Nardi.
pulled a revolver from his pocket and
began shooting. Caiglia fell from
the porch to the sidewalk when one
bullet entered his knee. The next
instant Mrs. Caiglia. the only witness
found so far. said Brondi placed the
weapon to his body and fired. She
states that Brondi fired but one shot
into his body and died instantly.
The report Of the shooting caused a
big crowd to gather and the police were
notified. On the arrival of the officers
Brondi was dead The injured men were
taken to the Delaware Hospital, where
after receiving treatment they went to
their homes.
il was not known until this morning
that Brondi had been shot three times
and according TO the police it would be
practically impossible for Brondi tC
have inflicted the three wounds on him
self. In addition to one bullet plough
ing through his heart. another bullet
lodged In his right chest and another en-
tered his stomach. Any one Of the
three would likely have resulted fatal.
Although a knife and revolver were
used in the fight. the police have moi
found either weapon. An old rusty
knife was found, but this had not beer
used for months
