removed to the Havemeyer Hospital here, was diagnosed by three physicians

probably be quarantined and that it would remain so for a period of at least two weeks.
The Morristown Preparatory School, an exclusive institution for boys here,

paralysis there.
Woman Suicide In Two Attempts
Her second attempt at suicide in two weeks today, resulted in the death of
Miss Josephine WELLS, 31, of 1243 East Eighth street. She was found in the
gas-filled kitchen of her home by her mother, Anna.
Four jets of the stove had been turned wide open, and cotton had been stuffed
in the crasks (as printed) of windows and doors and wadded careful in key
holes. The girl was dead on the arrival of Dr. Williams of Kings County
Hospital. Police of the Parkville station declared the death a suicide. The
girl has been in ill health for some time, it was said.
DIES OF FRIGHT AS CRAZED MAN DEMANDS BREAD
Battle with Red Hook Laborer Follows Attack in Bakery
One man was frightened to death today when a crazed dock laborer appeared in
a Red Hook bakery with a huge knife in hand and demanded bread for his family.
Police misled by three other workmen fleeing from the scene opened fire on
them, but the frightened three outdistanced them and escaped harm.
The crazed workman finally was subdued in Hamilton avenue police station
after a series of battles with the bakery workmen and police. He is Henry
MCNAIR, 30 of 175 Dikeman street.
Early today he appeared in the plant of the Larson Baking co., Henry and Mill
streets, and planted his 200 pound hulk before wiry, short John CARLSON, foreman.
RETURNS WITH KNIFE
"I want bread. I've got a wife and three kids. We've got to eat."
"I'd like to help you buddy, but we are not allowed to take bread ourselves,"
CARLSON replied. MCNAIR left.
A few minutes later the workman returned with a knife, slashed a screen door
and approached John THORSEN, 51, of Fifty-fourth street and Seventh avenue,
Brooklyn.
"Move along," MCNAIR shouted.
THORSEN turned and walked about thirty feet, then dropped dead. Death,
doctors said, was due "to fright."
MCNAIR approached a group of six or seven others, stood silent before them,
waving the knife, John JOHNSON, Kenneth EVANS and Arthur DASSON fled.
SUFFERED SPELLS
Police, thinking the three were fugitives, pursued them, firing as they went
until outdistanced.
Meanwhile CARLSON had walked up to MCNAIL, and with one blow had knocked him
down. He and other workmen were struggling to subdue MCNAIR when police
arrived.
The crazed workman was taken to the station and there smashed windows and
nearly escaped before subdued by six police.
MCNAIR has been suffering occasional "spells," neighbors said, since he
received a blow on the head in a roller coaster accident at Coney Island
about two years ago.

FLORIST LURED BY RACKETEERS KILLED 'ON SPOT'
Duped by Order for Roses, He is Shot in Back From Passing Car
Police are seeking gunmen who shot Frank FUZO, 50, a Columbia street
florist, who died with two bullets in his back at Long Island College
Hospital last night. FUZO was entering the hallway of 487 Columbia street
to deliver a bouquet of roses at 8:30 last night when a sedan eased
along the curb, four men leaned out, and at the order "Let him have it",
pumped four shots at FUZO's back. The florist dropped, still clutching
the bouquet of roses, and the car rolled away although the wounded
man was rushed to the hospital, he died without regaining consciousness
to give the police any description of his assailants.
It is known that FUZO had had brushes with racketeers for refusing to pay
them, as many of the Columbia street storekeepers are rumored to do. FUZO had
maintained the florist's shop at 123 Columbia street for twenty-five years
and had been known for his benevolence to the needy of the neighborhood.
His wife, Lena, grew hysterical at their home at 1170 East Seventh street,
Flatbush, when told of the shooting. Yesterday afternoon she had received the
order for the roses that lured her husband to his death, accepting a $2
deposit from a young man, and noting the instructions that they were to be
delivered to 65 Bush street at 8:30 last night. At 8 the young man returned
and told FUZO to hurry up with the flowers. He drove to the address with the
roses, and there was evidently redirected to the Columbia street address
around the corner, where the gunmen mortally wounded him.
He is survived by his wife and four children, Matteo, 17; Victor, 13; Marie
8, and Anna 6.
Last Thursday a similar order for flowers was given to FUZO but when he
arrived at the Bay Forty-fourth street address to which he was directed a man
met him on the street, and took the flowers, hurrying away.

Brooklyn police believed today they had a clue leading to the identity of the
killer of Benjamin MEYERSON, Brownsville gambler who was put on the spot at

a newsdealer of 117 Powell street. GOLDSTEIN, alias "The Ear Bender", was to
be arraigned in Brooklyn Homicide court, after spending the night in a
Brownsville police station under a severe grilling by police.
Questioned by Inspector SULLIVAN in the lineup today, GOLDSTEIN, who is being
held mainly in the belief he knows who killed MEYERSON said, "I've never had
anything to do with those lice." GOLDSTEIN has a police record showing a
three-year probation on a petty larceny charge which is still pending.

Speakeasy Row Over Series Costs Life of Bay Ridge Man
Laborer Is Held for Death - Owner Seized on liquor Charge
A speakeasy argument over what pitcher Manager Gabby STREET of the St. Louis
Cardinals should start against Connie Mack's Athletics in today's game cost
the life of one man early today while another will face a homicide charge.
The man killed was Gustave JOHNSON, 38, exact address unknown, but known to
have resided in the Bay Ridge section. He was pronounced dead at 3:15 A. M.
by Dr. BERGSTEIN of United Israel Zion Hospital in a speakeasy at 815
Forty-first street.
John LEONARD, 32, a laborer of 915 Forty-first street is under arrest and
will go to homicide court later today for a hearing.
According to Detective MC GOWAN of the Borough Park station, JOHNSON and a
group of friends were seated at a table at the Forty-first address,
discussing the game at Philadelphia.
JOHNSON is said to have maintained loudly that STREET would be crazy to start
any pitcher except his namesake, Sylvester JOHNSON. LEONARD was seated with
friends at a nearby table. According to witnesses, he arose and approached
JOHNSON.
"I'm tired of hearing you talk about that Swede, JOHNSON," he is reported to
have said. "Connie MACK is a good Irishman and can beat St. Louis anytime he
wants to."
He swung a right to JOHNSON'S jaw, which broke it and JOHNSON in falling
fractured his skull against a table. Detectives summoned, found a quantity of
liquor in the place and arrested the alleged proprietor, Michael GRILLO, of
1001 Fortieth street. LEONARD was picked up later and denied the charge.
KILLED WITH HATCHET BEFORE RIDE IN TRUCK IN GRAPE RACKET FEUD
Body of Dealer, Warned Few Days Ago, Left on Abandoned Vehicle -
Slain in Garage
Grape racketeers whose business had suffered through the expansion of Joseph
LA BARBERA's grape supply industry took LA BARBERA for a ride last night. But
first they killed him.
Thus, detectives of Gates avenue station found themselves confronted with a
wholly new ride technique. For one thing, the racketeers killed their victim
first. For another, they hauled away the body in a truck. And, third, they
murdered LA BARBERA with a hatchet and not a gun.
The skull of the slain man, who was 40 and lived at 33-38 102d street,
Corona, had been fractured in four places.
FOUND IN TRUCK
LA BARBERA was discovered in the back of a five-ton truck parked without
lights on a dark section of Walworth street new Willoughby avenue. Residents
of the neighborhood notified the Gates avenue station that the truck
constituted a menace to automobile drivers.
Detective John DOWLING and Patrolman William ANDREWS, who went to the scene
to remove the canvas covered vehicle, were told two men had abandoned it
early in the evening. Looking in the rear of the van, the police found LA
BARBERA's body.
Discovery of the body was followed almost immediately by the gathering of a
large crowd of morbidly curious, many of whom followed the police to the
Gates avenue station when the truck and its gruesome contents were removed.
Dr. M. E. MARTIN, Deputy medical Examiner of Kings County, announced at 11
o'clock last night that LA BARBERA had been dead about seven hours.
There was one fracture of the skull over the right ear, Dr. MARTIN said, and
three in the back of the head.
PISTOL IS MISSING
The pistol which LA BARBERA customarily carried and for which he had obtained
permits for the last four year was missing.
>From this, detectives deduced LA BARBERA had held his assailants at bay with
the gun - possibly in a garage somewhere - until one of them slipped behind
him and struck him on the head with a hatchet.
A half-hour from the time the body was brought to the station, Isidore LANDOW
of 341 new Lots avenue, owner of the trucking business, two dock workers whom
he knows slightly stopped him at Canal and Green streets, Manhattan, and
explained that one of them was moving from Yorkville to Hell's Kitchen. They
offered him five dollars for the use of the truck and agreed to return the
truck to his home. LANDOW agreed, he said, and that was the last he saw of them.
WARNED ON THURSDAY
LANDOW, whose story was accepted by the police, stated he knew the dock
workers only slightly, and could give a very meager description.
LA BARBERA's son, Joseph, said his father had been warned Thursday night to
quit the grape business, in which he had recently started in a small way. The
son said his father did not tell him from whom the warning came.
But, the son said, the business had prospered so much that LA BARBERA refused
to abandon it. Instead, he was planning to obtain two second-hand trucks with
which to cart his grapes.
Police believe he was killed in a Manhattan garage, where he had gone to
obtain a truck, and that probably at the time LANDOW's truck was hired the
body was already waiting nearby for disposal.
Bloodstains in the truck indicate, police said, that LA BARBERA was already
dead when placed in the vehicle. There are no signs of a struggle in the
truck, but lacerations of the right forearm indicate LA BARBERA fought for
his life.
GIRL, 9, KILLED; DRIVER IS HELD
Rosario IMPOLITO of 197 Scholes street, driver of a car which last night
killed a nine year old girl and injured another at Grand street and Graham
avenue, was held on a technical charge of homicide by Magistrate RUDICH in
Bridge Plaza court today.
Teresa COPULLI, 9, of 264 Humboldt street, the victim, was crossing with her
cousin, Teresa CALARUSSO, 8, when the car driven by IMPOLITO came down the
street. The driver swerved to avoid them, but they jumped into the path of
the car. Teresa was taken to St. Catharine's Hospital, suffering from
abrasions and contusions. IMPOLITO was arrested by Detective HICKEY of Stagg
street station.
DESPONDENT WOMAN OVERCOME BY GAS
Despondent over difficulties with her relatives, Mrs. Catherine VIOLA, 28, of
128 Bay Eleventh street was found overcome today by inhaling gas from the
range in her kitchen. She was found lying on the floor by an iceman, who
summoned Dr. WACKS from Harbor Hospital, and Emergency Squad No. 11. She was
revived, and was able to remain at home.
PAIR GIVE BABY TO NEIGHBORS, THEN TAKE GAS
Husband Jobless for Months, Couple End It All, But Save Infant
Margaret GORSCHUP, 23, left her fourteen weeks-old son with a neighbor last
night and explained she was going out. Police found Margarette and her
husband, Ehrich, jobless for months, dead today in their gas-filled apartment
at 1742 Nostrand avenue.
The two left no notes, and had not spoken much about their affairs to
neighbors. But a detective found GORSHUP's bankbook. It told in figures a
steadily losing struggle, starting with $1,700 savings. The remainder was $2.
GORSCHUP, 25, had been jobless since early spring, neighbors told detectives,
and their family's troubles had been increased with the arrival of their son.
Mrs. GORSCHUP had seemed increasingly despondent.
JOB ONLY TEMPORARY
Their home had gone up a little when Erich secured the job at the Astor, last
Sunday. Then they had learned this was temporary.
Mrs. Carl SCHUSTER, of 2910 Claredon road, with whom Mrs. GOSCHUP left the
baby, said Mrs. GORSCHUP had been doing janitor work in the apartment for a
rent concession until the baby arrived.
The two were first found today by a plumber, William LACKMUND of 1771
Nostrand avenue, who was summoned by Mrs. Bernard PAPOPORT, owner of the
house. Mrs. GORSCHUP was lying on the floor of the kitchen with her head on a
pillow. GORSCHUP was in his bed.
*Transcriber's note - Mr. GORSCHUP's name is spelled both Ehrich and Erich in
article.

SACKETT STREET SPOT KILLING TRACED TO ITALIAN VENDETTA
Thousands Flee Hail of Lead as Man is Slain
Working on the theory that Salvatore TRIMBOLI, 25, of 345 Prospect place, was
put on the spot last night at Columbia street near Sackett street because of
an Italian vendetta carried from the other side, police of the Brooklyn
Homicide Squad, under Capt. John MC GOWAN, today continued their questioning
of a long line of witnesses at Brooklyn Police headquarters.
TRIMBOLI was walking along Columbia street near Sackett when a black sedan
automobile drew alongside of him and two shots were pumped into his body.
Thousands of people in the neighborhood ran screaming into their houses and
nearby doorways as the death car sped away.
Police were summoned and Dr. ?ARCHEZ, Holy Family Hospital, found TRIMBOLI
dead. The gun that shot him down was close enough to him to leave powder
burns on his coat, police say.
TRIMBOLI was married and leaves a wife and two children. He had a record,
police say, being arrested once for grand larceny and again for disorderly
conduct. He was discharged both times.
Contrary to early reports Capt. MC GOWAN stated today that TRIMBOLI's death
was not the outcome of a slot-machine feud. In his pocket, police say, he had
a punchboard slip and some small change.
TRIMBOLI was a bricklayer by trade but had not been working for a year,
police say. He was always well dressed and had money in his pocket. They
questioned his wife and relatives, who told police that TRIMBOLI had no
enemies and was not mixed up in any racket.
His family told police that TRIMBOLI had not been home Friday or Saturday. He
came in Sunday morning and left with a cousin in an automobile at about 6
O'clock that night. He went to a restaurant on Columbia street, police say,
and was shot and killed at 8 o'clock.

20 October 1931
THREE DETECTIVES ARE SHOT IN RAID ON GANG HANGOUT; GUNMAN SLAIN, ONE SEIZED
Dead Man Sought Since 1928 for Fordham Hospital killing
A policeman's "camera eye" that spotted a man wanted in the killing of a
policeman had resulted today in death of an alleged gang chief, the capture
of a suspected ally, and serious wounds for three detectives in a sensational
gunfight with three men trapped in a rooming house at 154 West Seventy-eighth
street, Manhattan.
One other man, who shot and battered his way out of the trap with his fists,
still was at large.
The dead gangster:
Enrico BATTAGLIO, wanted, since 1928 for the murder of Patrolman Jeremiah BROSNAN.
The wounded detectives:
Guido PESAGNO, 27, shot in the face, the body, both arms and a leg. He may die.
James DE FERRARI, 39, wounded in the lung. He is in critical condition.
Edward WILLI, 48. A bullet grazed his windpipe. He may recover.
FORDHAM HOSPITAL KILLER
Police said BATTAGLIA was released from Sing Sing, where he had served two
years as a gunman, in 1928. They declared he was the comrade of James
"Killer" NANNERY and Edward "Snake" RYAN, who escaped from Sing Sing in July
of 1928.
Guarding a wounded burglar in Fordham Hospital, Patrolman BROSNAN was shot to
death at his post on Sept. 13, 1928. Witnesses identified pictures of NANNERY
and BURKE as those of two of the men who slew the policeman. They identified
BATTAGLIA's picture as that of the driver of their car.
Patrolman John F. BRODERICK had known BATTAGLIA, but BATTAGLIA did not know
the policeman.
Patrolman BRODERICK yesterday, saw BATTAGLIA - whom he had not seen in five
years - enter a house with two other men. He telephoned for re-enforcements.
PESAGNO and WILLI went to the second floor of the four-story brownstone
rooming house, while BRODERICK and DE FERRARI waited at the foot of the
stairs. The landlady shouted: "You police, get out," BRODERICK says.
DETECTIVES SHOT DOWN
Her screams warned BATTAGLIA and his companions. A pistol in each hand, he
ran out of a second-floor rear room, firing. his bullets brought down WILLI
and PESAGNO. DE FERRARI ran up the stairs after the gunmen. He, too, fell as
a bullet pierced his chest. After DE FERRARI ran BRODERICK, firing as he
climbed the stairs. Five bullets from his pistol and BATTAGLIA rolled down
the stairs.
BATTAGLIA's comrades rushed from the rear room, up the stairs, through a
skylight and across roofs.
Meanwhile, two police emergency squad trucks rolled up to the house and
unloaded their crews of policemen armed with rifles and sub-machine guns.
They searched neighboring houses. Police reserves struggled to keep back a
crowd.
Descending through the open skylight of a house where BATTAGLIA's companions
were believed to have escaped, a policeman found a man fully dressed, except
for a coat, lying in bed.
Stoutly denying any connection with the shooting he told police he was Bert
MILLER, 25 of Irwin, Pa.
At Roosevelt Hospital, they said, DE FERRARI identified him as the man "who
kicked me in the stomach" during the battle in the rooming house.

CRAZED FATHER KILLS FAMILY AND HIMSELF
Jobless Waiter Slays Wife and Two Children and Takes Gas
Groups of neighbors gathered under the maples in front of an attractive
little home at 139-33 226th street, Laurelton, today discussing in low tones
the tragedy that a few hours before had blotted out a whole family.
The dead are:
Joseph KANZIEN, waiter, 55, unemployed.
Mrs. Medea KANZIEN, 50, his wife.
Mrs. Eva HYLAND, 27, school teacher, their daughter
Richard HYLAND, 4 her son.
The bodies of all four lay in the morgue at Queens Village, the two women and
the little boy killed by blows on the head from a small hatchet and the
father dead from gas which he had inhaled through a tube attached to the
kitchen stove hours after the murder of the others.
MISSED FROM SCHOOL
KANZIEN was a waiter and, according to the neighbors, had lost his job in a
Lynbrook restaurant two weeks ago. Since then the family had appeared
despondent, though they were quiet neighbors and apparently had been in
fairly comfortable circumstances. The daughter taught school every day in
Long Beach and they had a small car. It was the failure of Mrs. HYLAND to
appear yesterday in her usual place in a Long Beach school that led late in
the day to the discovery of the tragedy.
The school authorities had telephone to Mrs. Alfred TAYLOR of 139-39 226th
street, asking her if she knew where Mrs. HYLAND was. Mrs. TAYLOR rang the
KANZIEN doorbell, repeatedly, but there was no answer. The blinds were drawn.
On the steps were a bottle of milk and a newspaper.
As it grew dark and there was still no response from the house, Mrs. TAYLOR
called another neighbor, Alfred BOWLES, of 139-15 226th street. He called
Patrolman Frank DONNELLY of Queens Village station, and the two climbed a
ladder to a second floor window, which they found unlocked and entered.
FIND THREE DEAD
In bed in her night clothing they found Mrs. KANZIEN dead with a deep gash in
her head. In another room, also in their night clothing lay the bodies of
Mrs. HYLAND and her son, the boy having been killed with a single blow. Mrs.
HYLAND had evidently been struck seven times.
In the clenched hand of the child was found a wisp of his mother's hair,
leading the police to deduce that she had been struck first and that the
child had awakened and tried to cling to her.
Police Inspector John J. GALLAGHER and Captain Herbert GRAHAM in charge of
the detectives assigned to the case, said they thought the woman and child
had been slain soon after the family went to bed Thursday night and that
probably all were asleep. KANZIEN, after the others were slain, had
apparently gone down to the kitchen some time later, attached a tube to the
gas stove and taken his life. The others had been dead about eighteen hours
and KANZIEN about ten.
Detectives found that about a month ago he had been held up in Chambers
street, Manhattan and struck with a blackjack. It was thought that this blow,
together with worry over financial matters might have led to mental
derangement.
Mrs. HYLAND was known in the neighborhood as an exceptionally intelligent
woman and it was said she had recently been taking a special course in the
study of abnormal psychology.
