ster hangout. Xs
Coming less than q month after
bomb attacks against the home Of
City Comptroller Charles Fitzmorris
and DR.. William Reid, both whom
are close allies Of Mayor Thompson,
the bombing Of Judge Sbarbaro's
home and business place was looked
upon by police as another defiance
Of the administration for its war
upon organized crime. fS
Police Puzzled
The Centur', garage bombine
puzzled police, although they were
agreed the motive undoubtedly was
rooted in gang rivalry. It was in
front Of this garage last Tuesday
that Isadore (Nigger) Coldbergh,
known 40 q strong-arnl man for =
vice and gambling syndicate, was
shot down and fatally wounded.
No one was hurt at either place,
although Judge and Mrs. Sbarbaro,
occupying the third floor Of the
Wells stree. building, were thrown
from bed by the force Of the ex-
plosion. Windows two blocks away
were shattered.
The bomb haL been placed near
the front entrance. When it ex-
ploded it wrecked the richly fur
nished funeral chapel which takes
up much Of the first floor. It was
from this chapel several years ago
that the gun-guarded casket Of Dion
O'Banion, floriSt.gangxter, was
taken in one Of the costliest,
strangest funerals Chicago ever had
seep.. The same chapel served 1op
the funeral Of Vincent (Schemer)
Drucci who. Nike Q'Danion.. fell h.

Judge Sbarbaro. who estimated hfS
bomb damage ct $4,000. was unable
to o12eP 4 motive. He doubted that
politics had any connection. He
suggested thst stiff penalties inn
posed recently in his court in an ef-
fort to break up gambling may have
been responsible.
Police learned that Judge Sbar.
baro received an anonymous tele.
phone threat Wednesday against
his life.
Threats also had been made to
Frank Lauer, owner of the Century
garage. Lauer said that he had re-
ceived telephone call in which the
voice at the other end Of tie wire
had said:
III 'Nigger' Goldbergh dies, your
Joint will be blown up"
Goldbergh died early yesterday.
The warning was relayed to po-
lice, who stationed four officers at
the garage. The policemen were on
duty near the front Of the building
whsn the explosion knock I'd over the
rear wall, demolished one section
and damaging surrounding places.
One patrolman was knocked down by
the force Of the explosion, but was
uninjured.
