When the gunmen shot Baft down in the crowded market scores of ‘pev- ple witnessed the act and saw the gunmen leap into an old fashioned brown automobile, As the death car sped away .ome of them read the number. No two «. the witnesses ay 1 as to the full numer, but all were certain the first two figures were 2 and 4. Some of the numbers were looked up, but Pol!se Headquarters and the District Attorney's office were receiving many mysterious tele- phone messa, fad In the next few months no less than twelve suspects were taken and several times it was announced the murder was near its solution, ‘arly last year the police decided Careless Use of Soap Spoils the Hair Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its heat, Most soaps and prepared sham- jpoos contain too much alkali, This dries the seal akes the hair brittle, ruins it, he best thing for steady use is just nary imulsified cocownut oil (which | is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use.

The search was started and hun- dreds of detectives were used. Many of the cars could not be traced. Fi- nally, after several months work, de- tectives working under Capt. Carey and Acting Capt. Jones of the Third Branch came upon an old-fashioned | brown automobile, a 1908 Fiat, with a number plate in which the numbers two and four formed the first part, in the garage of Patsy Garofoli at No 435 East One Hundred and Fourth Street. Quietly witnesses of the shooting were taken to a point near the garage and shown the car, They positively identified it, “Who drove the car?" was the next question that confronted the police. Detectives De Martini, Bonano, Casso | and Fogarty, the Irish detective who | is an authority on Italian criminals, were told to find out.
