Port Chester Man Freed.
John Salvatore. of Port Chester,
N. 1'.. who accompanied the two
men on their trip to Canada, was
brought back with the two prison-
ers. Salvatore was allowed his free-
domW without bonds after being
questioned by Prosecuting Attorney
Cramer C. Iicgemnn. He returned
to Ills home in Port Chester with the
understanding that he would appear
in .this city at any time he was re-
quested to do so byrlllc authorities.
Salvatore is a wealthy resident of

at his csiwlishmcnt and ln’formed
him that he was lowing on a trip
to Canad-l. lie then said that he
would accompany Fratino and left
with the Two men about 9:30 o'clock
Thursday evening.
The party arrived on the Wash-
ingtonian. The train was not sched-
uled to“stop in this city but it was
agreed before they left Canada last
night that they would make a spe-
cial stop so that the party would
not have to go to New York and
then return to this city.
Detective Sergeant Martin Len-
gyel stated that Padula kept the
passengers in the Pullman awake
all night with his singing and that .
it was necessary for the train crew
to order him to stop several times
during the night as the passengers
were complaining. He continued
his singing after he was lodged in
the cell at the city hall and did
not seem to consider the seriousness
of his crime.

econ as he was placed ill a cell he
said:
"Yes. I shot him. I shot him twice

Detective Sergeant Martin Len-

search for the gun used in the
slooiing by Paduia. The prisoner
may be taken to the place where it
it claimed that he hid the gun.
As was stated by Chief of Police
William 11. Pennington yesterday.
further arrests will probably be
made in the case. Sergeant Lengyel
‘ made a similar statement this morn-

expected to take into custody. Other
a1resis may be made before the
day is out.
According to the defense. Gilardo
fight took place. and Clementi had
been in an argument with another
man earlier in the day and that Pa-
trolman Henry Webb had to go to
rarrello's house in Lexington ave-
nue and warn them to keep quiet. n
is cla mod that Patrolman Webb had
consi crahle trouble getting into the
Barrello home at the time.
Prosecuting Attorney Cramer
Hegeman could not state this mo
,iug just 'when' Paduia and lirauno
could be arraigned in the local city-
court. Attorney Daniel Keogh said
that he thought. they would be
brought into the local court either
iomorrow or Saturday.
An effort will be made by Attor-
ney Keogh to have bonds set for
Fratino. but it is doubtful if this
action‘wili be Men by the court
inasmuch as it is claimed Fratino‘
is wally, implicated in the murder
and the authorities intend to push
his prosecution to the limit.
