The Files OF The Citizen


Manuel Jalmania and Mercedes
CarmanchO, negroes, were shot to
death last night by another negro,
generally known as Dice. Since
the shooting no trace Of the as
sassin has been found. The shoot
ing took place at the corner of
Division and Whitehead Street,
just at dark. 1t was said that a
few minutes later he was seen on
Julia street with another negro,
and later with woman, but this
report could not be verified. At
the investigation Of the coroner's
jury Augustine Planchat, only eye
witness of the shooting, said that
she is 13 years old and a niece of
the murdered woman who was a
sweetheart Of Dice. Some time
ago they quarre.cd and since then
she was keeping company with
JarMania. They were out walking
and she was with them. When they
got to the corner o. Whitehead
and Division they were approach
ed by Dice who, without a word
OF warning drew his pistol from
pocket and began shooting. Jar
mania fell at the first shot. He
was killed instantly. The woman
ran and was chased by Dice into
a grocery store, and shot her. A
brother OF the woman, Antonio
Carmancho, was shot and killed
here about one year ago by a man
named Daniel, who is serving a
five year sentence III state prison.
