BU 92-337

has been made in the Courts concerning RANDACCIO's appeal.

This source stated that no change will

such time®

be the case, in order that no power struggle will result

among members of the "MAGADDINO Family,"

should the results

of his appeal

prove successful.

This source reported that SALVATORE J. PIERI,

subject of Bureau file 92-6573, Buffalo file 92-389, is.

attempting to curry favor with former RANDACCIO associates

in the gambling field, particularly in bookmaking, without

success.

It is to be noted that this source has previously

reported that PIERI is not a member of the "MAGADDINO Family"

but is alleged to be connected with the "JOE COLOMBO Family'

of New York City.

BU 305-C-TE has also reported that no change has

taken place nor any contemplated pending the adjudication

Of RANDACCIO's appeal on his recent conviction.

Similarly,

this source reported that no replacement for RANDACCIO will

take place in order to avoid any

members of the "MAGADDINO Family, Power struggle between the

until such time as the re-

sult. of RANDACCIO's appeal is known.

Local, State, and Federal intelligence agencies con-

tacted in connection with this matter have in substance fur-

nished the same information as furnished by the above sources.

As the Bureau is aware, VICTOR RANDACCIO, the brother

OI FRED RANDACCIO, is the Secretary-Treasurer of Local 210,

International Hod Carriers and Common Laborers Union of America,

Buffalo, New York, Bureau file 92-5354, Buffalo file 92-246.

Sures 220

It would be logical to assume that in the event any change or

aam ISPlacement of FRED RANDACCIO IS made by the "MACADDINO

that the first indication will be the removal of

VICTOR RANDACCIO from his position as Secretary-Treasurer

of Local 210.

In this connection, close contact is being

maintained with all sources of this office to determine any

contemplated changes in Local 210 replacing VICTOR RANDACCIO,

which would be an indication that the

templates the removal of FRED RANDACCIO from a position of

authority in the "MAGADDINO Family."
