Citizens and Police Chase Jim Can
dello, Who Fired the Shot, Into
Brush on Marquam ' Hill,
Where He Js Arrested.
Because he had been beaten in a game
of pool, Jim Candello yesterday afternoon
about 5 o'clock shot and perhaps fatally
wounded PJetro Tozzo. near Third and
Lincoln streets. Both are Italians. Toz
zo, who was shot in the right breast, the
bullet puncturing his lungs, walked up
Lincoln street, fighting with Candello all
the time. When he reached Fourth street
he broke away from his assailant and fell
to the sidewalk unconscious. Candello
was arrested by the authorities about
half an hour after the snooting. Tozzo
was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital
where small hopes are held for his recov
ery. Both men have been employed on
the railroads as section hands. They arc
men of about 30 years of age.
Sunday morning the two men were play
ing pool in an Italian saloon, Second and
Salmon streets. Tozzo winning. This an
gered Candello, who pretends to be an
expert at the game, and a. fight ensued.
Tozzo, who is the stronger of the two.
knocked Candello to the floor several
times. Anally picking up a billiard cue
and breaking it over his opponent s head.
He also cut him In the left arm with a
knife, but the wound was not severe.
Candello Procures Revolver.
Candello, It Is said, swore to have re
venge and procured a revolver. He start
ed to hunt for Tozzo, but he could not
find him until in the afternoon. After
searching through the Italian quarters he
heard that Tozzo had gone down. town.
He started after him, but met Tozzo walk.
ing up Third street in company with Nick
Martello, another Italian. He approached
them from the rear with his revolver In
hand. Tozzo heard a noise behind him
and turned to receive a bullet In his right
breast. v
The two men grappled, the wounded
man knocking the revolver from Candel
lo's hand. The two then walked up the
street fighting. Although he was perhaps
fatally wounded, Tozzo had the best of
the fist .ught until Fourth street was
reached, where Candello pulled a knife
and slashed his opponent about the head
Tezzo continued to fight to the best of his
ability until he toppled over on the side
walk unconscious. Candello. who had re
tained his composure, is said to have gone
back to the scene of the shooting and
procured his revolver, which had beea
knocked from his hand.
Attempts to Escape.
Then he calmly walked up the street
carrying the revolver in one hand and the
stiletto In the other. No one attempted
to interfere and he went to his room at
287 Sheridan street. After he had been
there a few minutes and had wiped the
blood from his clothes, he left the house
"by the back way, going up Marquam Hill.
By this time the neighborhood was
aroused, the small boys following Candello
at a. safe distance. Detectives "Weiner and
now and Bailiff. John Goltz started in
pursuit. The Italian ran into the woods,
cjosely followed by a rapidly increasing
throng- of people. Candello had plenty of
time in which to escape, but after he
had been in the woods for a few minutes
he decided to return to the Italian settle
ment and hide. He ran into a frienu s
house on the outskirts of the woods,
.where he was found by Goltz, who had
"been searching the different Italian resi
dences, as the detectives thought Can
dello would sneak back.
Offers No Resistance. ,
He made no effort to resist the detec
tives who took him In charge, and tried
to look unconcerned. There were no
weapons on his person at the time of the
arrest. Before the arrival of the patrol
wagon the Italian rolled a cigarette and
lighted it. When told that Tozzo was
seriously injured and about to die he ap
peared surprised. He admitted that he
.uad been fighting with Tozzo.
Candello has only been in the United
States for about six months. Tozzo has
lived in Portland for several years and is
said to have accumulated considerable
property. Neither of the men are mar
ried. About six months ago Tozzo was
arrested and tried on the charge of at
tempting to kill another Italian on Sheri
dan street. One night an unknown man
rfired three shots through the window of
the room in which Carmlno Perelle slept.
Perelle happened to be out of the room
At the time of the shooting. Tozzo was
accused.
Accused the Mafia.
1 It is rumored that the shooting of Tozzo
has some connection with thc Vlllardo
.murder in San Francisco, the man whose
"body was so fearfully mutilated. It is
said that Tozzo expressed great Indigna
tion over the murder and attributed the
crime to the black hand of the Mafia, His
friends warned him against expressing an
opinion in connection with the murder, so
it is said, but he seemed to be in no fear
of assassination, saying he could take
care of himself.
At the time the Italians greatly won
dered at the stand Tozzo haa taken, as
they tremble whenever Mafia is men
tioned. It is said that the Italians, among
themselves, predicted that Tozzo would be
stricken down. They did not seem sur
prised over the shooting and would say
very little about it. One Italian said he
had expected to se Tozzo get Into trou
ble, but would not say anything further.
The Italians refused to aid in the pur
suit of Candello and would not tell the
policemen in which direction he had trav
eled after he had left his room. They
jilted as though they were afraid that
they also might be attacked. "When any
thing was said to them about Mafia it
could be plainly seen that they were bad
ly frightened.
The police, however, place little cred
ence in the Mafia theory. They say the
dispute over the pool game was the direct
cauee of the shooting, but nevertheless
they say they will make a thorough in
vestigation of the story that Mafia has
had something to do with the shooting of
Tozzo.
:new mayoe goes in.
Exhibit From Clackamas Schools.
OREGON CITY, Or., April 9. (Special.)
Having been, denied funds by the Coun
ty Court and the general committee that
is supervising the making of an exhibit
from this county at the iLewis and Clark
Fair, the committee that? was named to
prepare an educational exhibit of this
bounty had about decided to abandon
the project. But at a meeting of this
W. H. King to Preside Over St. Johns
Council Will Make Appointments.
Tills evening Mayor C. A. Cook, Mar
shal C. JL Organ, Treasurer Frank Livor
morc. Recorder C. F. Clark and Council
men Monahan, Hughes, Beebe, Hamilton,
Edwards and Hurlburt will step down and
give, way to the incoming Mayor and city
officers of St. Johns, who arc as follows:
Mayor, W. H. King; Recorder, J. W.
Hanks; Treasurer, F. W. Valentine;
Councilmen-at-Large, P. J. Peterson. C.
S. Thompson and B. T. Lcgsott; First
Ward. C. D. Edwards and C. A. Linqulst;
Second Ward. H. W. Brice and J. H.
Sheld; City Attorney, Judge S. H. Greene,
who will submit his resignation.
Mayor King will have the appointment
of a City Engineer. City Attorney and
City Marshal or Chief of Police. For
City Engineer, J. Frank Smith will likely
succeed himself. Judge Greene, who was
elected City Attorney without opposition,
will probably receive the appointment.
Mayor King would have to go entirely
outside of St. Johns to name another man
for that office, -a thing which he will not
likely do. Appointment of Chief of Police
is in the air. The names of Marshal C. R.
Organ, father and engineer of the Good
Government League, which made such a
sweep in the late election, and E. L.
Stockton, a bright young man and shrewd
politician, who helped place W. H. King
in nomination at the meeting of tho Inde
pendents, are mentioned in connection
with the appoitment. Marshal Organ an
nounced before election that he was not
out for any office, and Mr. King is under
no special obligation to appoint him, al
though Mr. King drew enough votes from
W. V. Jones, Good Government candidate
for Mayor, to win out. Stockton says he
Is not a candidate for the office and docs
not want to mix up in politics, preferring
his private business. Mr. Stockton is sat
isfied to have contributed considerable to
the election of Mr. King, and an office has
no allurements for him. Mayor King may
be depended upon to appoint whoever he
thinks will make the best officer for the
job, if It be Organ, Stockton, orsomebody
not mentioned. It is predicted that Mayor
King will not be influenced against his
own judgment in any appointment or
measure. He is careful, deliberate and
progressive in his natural make-up. He
may not make any of these appointments
this evening, but will consider the matter
for a few days, or he may present the
nominations at this opening Council meet
ing. Those appointments really must be
made before the machinery of the city
government can begin grinding.
The new administration has a largo re
sponsibility. St. Johns has a population
of more than 2500. At the first election,
two years ago, only 134 votes were cast.
Last Monday 37S votes were cast, and
this number is short about 50 of the ac
tual voting population. There are largo
manufacturing Interests in St. Johns, rep
resenting Investments running up into the
millions. The latest is the Weyerhaeu
ser Company, the most extensive timber
company in the United States, to come
Into St, Johns. Ground must be pur
chased and a city hall erected. Streets
are to be improved. A public dock is to
be erected at the foot of Richmond street,
for which plans have been adopted. Fire
apparatus must be paid for and housed.
Bonds must be issued upward to $10,000 or
20.000. St. Johns is sure to be a great
industrial center. These are some of tho
tilings that the new administration will
be called on to handle. The high charac
ter of the Mayor and the men elected to
the Council give assurance that these im
portant matters will be carefully consid
ercd before final action is taken.
Brooklyn Boys Get
Off the Earth
nrOOT! TOOT! Ding, dong! Ki! Yl!
8 Git out ov de way, youse!" The
Brooklyn cavalcade of scoot-wagons
came down the incline on East Ninth
street scattering tho fragile-nerved pe
destrians to the right and. loft. The
small boy of Brooklyn was out In his
glory. So was the Cop, aad now the lit
tie boys don't coast down East Ninth
street.
"Dc cops ain't got no kids to home,'
explained the gang as It huddled in dis
mal dejection on a vacant lot and gazed
at the long, smooth incline which had
lately been a source of so much delight
"Well, I don't want to coast in any
baby wagon anyhow," announced the
boy with the red head and freckles,
"Let's play ball in de street. Cops can't
run us on n mere.
It was calm and peaceful and quiet.
The springtime twitter of the birds
mingled with the fragrance of the bud
ding trees and the little suburb of Brook
lyn dreamed in silence and. basked in
the welcome warmth of April's sun.
"Slug Ter, Chimmy. Knock the stut
fin out'n it. Bust the bat. Three strikes
Slide, Chimmy. slide. Foul. Kill the
umpire. Soak him in the eye. Bust his
slats! ! !"
Brooklyn woke up and nine Irate fath
ers swooped down upon the disturbers of
the Sabbath with long and pliant "suck
ers" hastily trimmed from the flowering
apple tree. The din was redoubled for a
space, and then all was sobbing silence
and throbbing misery and unrepentant
woe.
An hour passed, and Mrs. Brooklyn
glanced from the window to sec a gaping
wouna m tne vacant Jot on East Ninth.
She Investigated and she remonstrated.
Young Brooklyn expostulated.
"We can't coast, we can't play ball
we ain't got no place on the earth, and
we's goin' under," explained nine young
JsrooKiyns.
"You'll get the grip. You can't play
underground, so you fill up that hole and
be good boys." Mrs. Brooklyn settled
the matter, and again the pulse of Na
ture could bo heard as Brooklyn dozed
in the sunshine.
"Dp wid de flag, Chimmy." The voice
of Brooklyn's boytown Mayor rang out
in command. "Up wid the flag of liberty
Into de blue sky of freedom. Dey can't
rule us out if we ain't on de eart. Dey
can't git us u dey do. Youse can crush
de worm. You'se can mutilate de spider,
you'se can tame dc wolf, and you'se
can train de dove, but you'se can't keep
de rlsln generation down."
And so it is. TTp in a lordly oak that
reaches its aged branches to the sky.
Young Brooklyn has fortified itself. On
East Ninth, between Beacon and Brook
lyn, the boytown fort is being built,
strong and staunch, amid the mighty arms
of the oak. The floors are of cast-off lum
ber culled from forbidden plies. The
walls arc of more timber gained in many
a desperate forage, the roof will be the
green leaves spread over Industrious and
uptirlng effort by kindly nature's guard
ing hand. Cops have no terrors when the
rope ladder is drawn up, for cops are
corpulent arid short of wind. Old Brook
lyn has no jurisdiction for the fort can
become a deserted ruin uninhabited and
inaccessable at the hint of danger. Abovo
It floats the ensign, bearing an announce
ment that "snowbank flour is the best."
In time the Stars and Stripes will take
the place of the provisional banner, but
a fort must have a flag, and necessity
waits not for pence nor pleasure.
"Dey crowded us off'n de eart' an we
ain't sorry." Boytown will find a way.

BEEF TRUST'S WAR
Big One Openly Attacks the
Little Local One.
INVADES THE NORTHWEST
Little Trust Learns That the Eastern
Combine Has Determined to Get
Trade of Three Cities, Port
land, Seattle, Spokane.
By Johnston McCully.
The slow and systematic swallowing of
the Lrittle Beef Trust by tho Big Beef
Trust has begun.
Combat by the three corners of the X.ltr
tie Trust while the Big Trust looks on
and laughs and urges the gladiators on;
while the retailer claps his hands with
glee because, for a time, he has things
little his own way; while the dear pub
lic stands where it has always stood,
and pays for the music that goes with
the show! The wild beasts of the arena
have turned upon each other, and the in
tended victims cower In a corner, know
ing that, though life Is ponnitted for a
short time longer, the end will ultimately
come.
This is the latest phase of the local
beef combine. The Big Trust, which has
slowly covered the country, East. "West,
North and South, with its agencies tho
octopus that has clasped the Nation In
Its tentacles, has at length declared war
upon the Little Trust of the Northwest,
and it Is like the combined forces of Eu
rope against debt-loaded Venezuela!
Rumor has It and rum&r In this case is
true that not very long ago the Little
Trust began to lose the trade of certain
retailers in Portland, in Seattle ana in
Spokane. The mombors got together.
They -knew that meat was selling for the
same price in all three cities It was a
part of the agreement. They knew tnat
the Portland houses would not transgress
upon the trade territory of the houses of
Spokane and Seattle; likewise that the
houses - of those cities would not trans
gress upon the trade territory of the
Portland houses.
Where did the retailers that had stopped
trading with the Little Trust get their
meat?
The Little Trust got busy and proceeded
to find out. The retailers told their rep
resentatlves that they were getting meat
at a smaller figure than the Portland
houses asked. Where did they get It?
They cot It from Armour, from Swift.
They got it from the Big Beef Trust that
controlled railroads, regulated the ship
ment of fruit and even decided where to
matoes should be marketed. The repre
sentatives returned to their houses with
this intelligence Then came tho deluge.
Gets Rates From Big Trust.
Over In one corner of the territory con
trolled by the Little Trust was a house
that had to have the buslnoss in order
to live. This house learned the prices at'
which the Big Trust supplied the reiailcrs
with meat. This house sent a represents
tlve to the retailers and informed them
that beef was listed at such a price a
few points below the prices of the Big
Trust. Tho retailer bought. The nouse
did not notify the rest of the houses com
prising the Little Trust, for various
reasons.
About the same time a house in an
other corner of the territory controlled
by the Little Trust adopted the same
plan. This house, also, failed to notify
the remainder of tho houses comprising
tho Little Trust. The Big Trust knew,
but held its peace. The future was eas
ily seen by the Big Trust.
Then there came a day when the house
of one corner, in an effort to make up
losses caused by the cut in prices, saw
that it would have to sell more meat. It
invaded the territory of its . neighbor,
thinking that Its neighbor was "not on to
the game and was not selling below the
figure ?et by the combine. This house
made a sale. The next time the repre
sentative of the other house met the re
tailer he learned that beef was very
cheap, and that, furthermore, it was not
the Big Trust that set tho low price. Then
the cat sprang out of the bag and the
war was on.
What Portland Packers-Say.
The war Is still on. Packers In Port
land declare through tholr official organ,
the Rural Spirit, that they are actually
losing thousands of dollars Instead of
making enormous profits. They attribute
their losses to the high prices they have
to pay for beef on the hoof, for the low
prices at which the retailers compel
them to sell their moat, to the proud and
haughty consumer who soys he will buy
no meat unless he gets it at his own fig
ure.- At these things the Big Trust
laughs. If the Little Trust Is losing thou
sands it will soon be out of business and
the Big Trust will have things It own
way. If the Little Trust Ls not losing
thousands it soon will, or be willing to
sell beef cheap enough to be satisfied
with a modest profit, for the Big- Trust
can easily Invade the territory of the Lit
tle Trust, offsetting Its losses here by
making the people in other parts of the
country pay more for their beef.
If there Is no money In the meat busi
ness It is wonderful to see opposing com
bines fight for ithe field for the mere
pleasure of losing more money. The
trusts are not fighting for the pleasure of
the thing; they are fighting for the profits
which come from the purses of the con
sumers. The deduction ls obvious.
The Little Trust works overtime to -save
the business; the Big Trust laughs; tho
public pays for the overtime and the
laugh.
You can't help liking them, they are so
very small and their action so perfect.
Only one pill a dose. Carter's Little Liver
Pills. Try them.
