DEATH ENDS STORMY CAREER
Passing of King Peter of Servia Re-
calls Murder of His Predecessor
Prince Alexander Rules.

Belgrade, Aug. 1S.-Preparations are
under way for an imposing state funer-
al for the venerable King Peter, who
is dead at the age of seventy-six. after
long illness. His death made no
change in the government of Jugo-
Slavia as Prince Regent Alexander has
been ruler of the country since the
war. The death of Peter brought to
an end one of the most stormy and
spectacular careers in Europe. He
assembled the throne of Servia after
his predecessor had been murdered, but
it was never proved that Peter had
instigated the assassination. Peter
lived to see the dream of his life
realized-the expansion of his country
to the Misunderstanding Albania and
Slav territory formerly owned by Aus
tria and Albania, Greece and Bull
garia.

CLUE TO 70 MURDERS
Former Detroit Barber Gives Tip
to New York Police.
Numerous Killings May Be Traced 10
Camorrist Band-AlI Victims
Were Shot.

Detroit, Aug. 1S.-Detroit police are
at work on what they asserted was
Dne of the first tangible clues TO the
wave of murder and bombing outrages
hat has been sweeping through the To-
cal Italian colony in the last four
years.
The arrest in New York OF Bartolow
Fontano, former Detroit barber and
the information he gave concerning
the murder of eight Italians here, led
local authorities TO believe that some
light might be shed on the 30 killings
which have been recorded in the Ital-
ian colony here since 1917.
Only five of the victims of the gang,
with which Fontano is said TO have adj
mitted his connection, had been iden-
titled by the police from New York
reports, but it was believed that, when
possible discrepancies in the names
were cleared up, the others would
also be known
Members of the italian squad will
be sent to New York to identify the
prisoner and may seek requisition for
FOntano.
Local crimes which Fontano de-
tailed to the New York police ranged
over a period extending from the lat
ter part of 1917 to May, this year. All
of the victims were shot to death, and
in each instance the slayer escaped.
PietrO BOscO, a wealthy member Of
the colony, was killed in his garage
late in 1917. In January, 1913, An
tonic Glannola, another prominent
member of the colony, and reputed
leader of gang, was shot to death
just as he stepped from his automo-
bile, where he had gone to visit the
family of an Italian who had been
killed by his son-in-law.
Sam Giannola, his brother, who the
police believe is the Salvatore Clan
nOla to whom FOntano referred, was
shot down in front of a bank in Octo-
Der, 1918. Joseph BuccellatO and Jo-
Seph BOScO were the victims this year.
Two murders have occurred in the
Italian colony here within the last
month, and three men are under ar
rest in connection with one. Several
stores, owned by Italians, have been
bombed recently, but in each instance
the owners have disclaimed any knOwl-
edge of the identity of these respon-
sible.
