NEW YORK. August 16.-Joseph
Sileo was reported by the police today
to be dying with sealed lips, a victim
of bootlegger war in the Italian
quarter which has rolled up a casualty
list of twenty in the last three months.
Despite the fact that the attack on
Sileo was made in the midst of
crowd of fifty picnickers at New Dorp
Beach, Staten Island, detectives as
signed to the case were unable to gain
single clue to the assailant's
identity.
Terror of the "Camorra." they said,
had SO chilled the hearts of the wit
nesses that none could be found who
would admit even having seen the
man who emptied three chambers of
pistol into Sileo's body as he sat on
a step Of veranda at New Dorp. Two
of Sileo's brothers, who were nearby.
professed to be entirely mystified.
Sileo, on his hospital bed. refused to
discuss the shooting. The picnic went
merrily on to its conclusion. with Ge-
tectives circulating through the crowd
to prevent the outbreak of further
, trouble.
Eleven of the nineteen shootings
that preceded Sileo's took place at or
! near the corner Of Grand and Christie
! streets in the lower East Side. This
wi ihei' eie poiiSe say Is tHe scene OF
secretly conducted bootleggers' curb
market.
Detectives also are trying to trace
to the bootleggers' feud a shooting
that occurred early today in the
Bronx. Joseph LaZaro, the victim. said
he had been shot by a man posing as
prohibition agenr who first tried to
extort $500 in exchange for immunity
from arrest on charge of having a
can of Italian wine in his possession

opened without further disturbances
of any sort.
The situation at the Locke mills
was reported as unchanged. The Con-
cord company. under command of
Capt. Kenneth Caldwell, is again on
duty there.
1t is not anticipated that the Can
non mills at kannapolis will attempt
to open before tomorrow morning.
The management indicated to Gov.
Morrison when he was asked to dis
patch troops there that the mills
would not open unless troops were
sent.
The Winston-Salem company, in
charge of Capt. Ben Gray. is expected
to reach Kannapolis during the after

Capt. Servantes. it was said, caused
troops in the federal garrison at 1quitos,
numbered at 100, to support him. The
towns officials. two army officers and
the governor Of the province were taken
prisoners by the revolutionists, who
