Battling Siki, the Senegalese slasher, who knocked Mr. Carpentier for a homer the other day, may not come to America after all. The cable dispatches yesterday from Paris said that the rought black man had changed his mind about mingling with the tough American boys, and had passed ud all though about coming over here at least for a year. Wherein it would seem that the battler is show ing good judgment. One sock on the whiskers ove'r on this side of the big pond would end him for all time, whereas he might go along picking up the soft epots on the other side, gathering plenty of kale on the way. Tex Rickard was surprised when he read about Siki not coming here. So far as Rickard is concerned Siki Is coming here, as per his agree ment with the promoter. Rickard said today that he was not worry ing about the Senegalese and was sure that he will be here when called upon. However, Rickard sent a cable to Maurice Helles, manager of Siki, asking about the rumors that the man who beat Georges Carpentier so handily had changed his mind about coming to the United States. According to the cable advices, 6Iki had signed up to meet Joe Beckett in England on November 23, which would indicate that he has abandoned the idea of keeping his contract with Rickard to meet some American light-heavyweight in New York about November 30.

Black hand threats to blow up the home of Caterino Petorto unless she delivered "50 or 60 gallons of whisky and wine at the corner of .Forty- seventh and Davision streets brought the arrest yesterday of J. A. Parent!, said to be a prosperous member of the Italian colony, though an Amer ican! citizen, who is accused of hav ing written the threatening letter. Parenti was charged with extor tion in the warrant from the district attorney's office. In this instance it was liquor instead of money which the accused man is alleged to have sought through a threatening letter pinned to the public market stall where Miss Petorto daily mar kets farm produce. Liquor Is Demanded, On the morning of October 7 a friend in the adjoining stall found the leter fastened to the Petorto tall. He turned it over to Iiss Pe torto on her arrival. The letter, which was in Italian, was a bit ague in some respects, but threat ened to blow up the Petorto home and everything in it while the in mates slept unless liquor were de livered according to directions. The letter called for 50 or 06 gallons of whisky and wine, not stipulating the quantities of each, and demanded delivery at the corner of Forty-sev. enth and Division streets not later than the night of October 9. Prentl la Arrested. The letter and a translation were taken to the office of District At torney Myers and were also shown to federal officers. Yesterday a warrant for Parenti's arrest was placed in the hands of Deputy Sheriff Christoff erson and, accom panied by Tow Word and P. E. Marrinan, federal agents, he ar rested Parenti at y5lA Third street. At this location Parenti has a store room adjunct to the stall he operates on the public market. Parenti obtained Albert Ferrera as his attorney and made appearance before District Judge Deich, where he waived examination and was bound over to the grand jury under ?500 bail. Signature Is Recognized. Suspicion was turned in Parrenti's direction by members of the Petorto family, who knew his signature and had copies of it in their possession. Search of his storeroom by the ar resting officers was said to have brought to light a notebook from which a page was missing. The blackhand letter is said to match this paper and to fit exactly where the missing sheet was torn away. The officers stated that imprints of pencil pressure on the following sheet of the notebook showed plain ly enough to be read. After much questioning at the hands of the officers, Parenti is said to have stated that he wrote the letter but did it merely as a Joke. The theory of the officers is that there has been bad feeling between these rival occupants of market stalls and that the letter was writ ten to worry and harrass the Petorto family. The Petortos live in Mil-waukie. Convict KeepsMotive for Killing Secret 1 1 Years Until Daughter Is Dead. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) PITTSBURG, Pa., Oct. 16.
