ITALIAN MURDER CLUE
Detroit Police at Work On Staying
Wave and Bomb Outrages


Detroit, August 17-Detroit police
today are at work on what they assert
ed was one of the first tangible clues
to the wave of murder and bombing
outrages that has been sweeping
through the local Italian colony in
the past four years.
The arrest in New York yesterday
OF Bartolow Fontano, former Detroit
barber, and the information he gave
concerning the murder of eight Ital-
ians, led local authorities to believe
that some light might be shed on the
seventy killings, which have been
recorded in the Italian colony since
1917.
Only five of the victims of the gang
with which Fontano is said to have
admitted his connection had been iden
titled by the police today, from New
York reports. but it was believed that
when possible Discrepancies in the
names were cleared up, the others
would also be known. Fontanto, is
not known to the authorities here, but
they believe he may be "Fonanto"
who formerly was about Detroit.
