Near Scene OF Recent shooting

Dominic Arruzza was stabbed through
the body shortly before midnight Sunday

glaring lights at the corner of West lane
and Hickok street I'm Winooski and died
in the arms of his wife as he lay in the
streets.
-Four people are under arrest: His half

Mrs. Michael Arruzza. The men were taken
to the Winooski lookup and the women
were brought to the Jail in Burlington
about 1880 O'Clock by Chief OF Police
Barber and Officer McGrath.
The tragedy occurred almost within
sight Of the shooting ARRAY there last
week. Stories of what happened leading
up to the stabbing differed somewhat, but
they agreed In that the quarreling of the
Italians was heard for some time. This
did not excite any interest as 1t is said
the Italians and other foreigners are &C.
customed to loud and lengthy encounters.
Reading at his window in his home near
by, young Thomas Mongeon heard the
loud vioces of the Italians. until finally,
he put out his light and looked out.
On the corner under the glare of the
lights was little group. He ran

he saw two men running away. The
bloody form of Arruxza was on the
ground
When Mongeon reached the corner.
Arruzza lay with his head in his wife's
lap. He was still breathing, for Mon
geon put his hand over Arruzza's heart
and found it beating. An ugly wound had
torn clear through him, penetrating
the heart. MoIgeon ran back to his
house to phone for a doctor, but fall
ing to reach one ran back again, the
waillng Italian woman holding her
husbands head, and as he put his
hand to ArruZZa's heart again the man
died
Almost immediately appeared the
breathless Michael Arruzza, calling
breathlessly who killda my brudda? %
And the person who answered him
was Officer MoGrath, who arrested him.
Mlohael's face had blood upon it, and
his shirt and trousers, in front, were
slashed and torn almost in shreds. A
, few minutes later Frank Stramintine
also was arrested, and upon him were
found a SIS calibre revolver and a long
ugly dirk. Mrs. Michael Arruzza, who
had been leaving the corner when
young Mongeon ran down, had returned
at his command and she and Mrs. Dom
inio Arruzza were taken to the lookup.
Knives were seen to flourish by one who
J witnessed u part of the quarrel. After
