BODIES FLUNG IN RIVER
I'olice Suspect Bavari of Chopping
Victims of Murder.
FLORENCE, Colo.. Jan. 9. That Er
cole, Buffctti, Dominiek Mlnlchiello, Jo
ti'Ph Minlehieilo and Mrs. Frank Pal
metto, who mysteriously disappeared in
tills city, were iully murdered and their
bodies chopped to pieces is the positive
opinion of the police. The disposition
made of their bodies is believed to have
been partly revealed by the finding of
human lungs, a thorax and a piece of a
tongue in the Arkansas River.
It Is believed that other ghastly re
mains are being scattered along the bed
of the river by the swift current, and
towns below here have been notified to
watch for the appearance of any evidence
of murder that may come to the surface.
Tony Bavari, , who is in Jail charged
with murder of the Mlnlchiello brothers,
Im said by .Chief of Police Kumiss to
have confessed that he killed a man in
Italy before coming to America. In his
house was found a bunch of letters ad
dressed to Tony Neroni, and this Is be
lieved to be his real name. One letter
was from hie father in Italy, asking him
to return to the old country and partici
pate in a fortune the family had recently
Inherited. The father offered to use
every effort to clear the son of the mur
der charge in Italy if he would return.
Ravarl was engaged in market garden
ing here in partnership with the Min
kliletlo brothers, and is accused by the
llce of having murdered them in order
to obtain their money and other prop
erty. He had $350 when arrested.
Buffetti was an old man employed in
the garden. The police believe he was
killed because of his knowledge of the
other alleged murders. His name was
added to the list of missing last night.
Mrs. Palmetto was a young divorced
woman, who disappeared two months
ago. She had kept house for Bavart,
but repeatedly refused to marry him.
All her clothes have been found In Ba
vari's cabin.
Learning that mobs had been organized
in the surrounding coal camps for tha
purpose of storming the Florence jail and
lynching Bavari, Chief of Police Furness
today spirited the prisoner to Canon City,
where he was placed in the County Jail.
Ieaps From Dome to Death.
LAWRENCE, Kan.. Jan. . Urban
Angney, captain of last year's football
team and an all-around star athlete
of Kansas University, committed eui
clde here today by Jumping from the
dome of Frazer Hall at the university
grounds. Angney left the following
note on the window sill from which he
Jumped:
"Dear Jesus: My life Is passed. My
pleasure is gone. No pleasure for me.
You can know the reason. I was called
for what I owe. If I only, had done
It sooner. Do not hold me responsible.
Good-bye. May you all live happy."
Angney's home was in Wellington,
Kan., and he was 22 years old. He
was to have graduated in June. AH
classes at the university were closed
today as a result of the suicide.
Angney's mind Is believed to have
been aXcted from worrr.
CUT RATES ON ATLANTIC
Rival Lines Reduce Transportation
to English Ports.
LIVERPOOL Jan. 9. The White Star
Line today announced a reduction in Its
second and third class passenger rates
from English ports to New York and Bos
ton. This step Is taken because of the
traffic that has been deflected from the
vessels of this line by the Lusitania and
Mauretania and to the refusal of the
Cunard Company- to concede differential
rates for vessels of the Baltic class.
The second-class fares were reduced by
from 16 to 17.50 and the third-class fares
by from $4 to $5. The Cunard Company
immediately said that it would meet the
cut. m
Pennoyer Heirs Xot to Blame.
PORTLAND, Jan. . (To the Editor.) I
request the privilege of nrnklnc reply to the
unwarranted criticism of the heirs of the
Pennoyer estate, published In the local col
umns of your issue of this date. wlU refer
ence to the condition of the sidewalk fronting
on block 217. It Is a matter of general
knowledge, and, also, of record In the County
Clerk's office, that this1 property is under
lease for a period of 50 years from July 1,
1907. The lease provides that -all street im
provements or assessments, of whatever kind
or nature, shall be paid for by the lessee,
hence the matter Is out of the hands of the
heirs entirely.
The attention of the writer was called to
the condition of the walk by the City En
gineer, and the latter was referred to W. D.
Wood, president of the Trustee Company, of
m this connection I alsa bar to
state that the heirs to Sylvester Pennoyer' s
estate have accumulated soma property Inde
pendent of the estate, and that all Improve
ments to property under their control in this
city or elsewhere will compare favorably wltb
other properties surrounding It.
