FIENDS END
OWN CAREER
Two Slice Pal in Search of $20.00—
Then Go at Each Other
Over Spoils
NEW YORK, N. Y. July 12. (By
Mait).—As desperate a band of gun
men as this city ever developed prac
tically came to an end without police
aid when Matthew Joseph Casselli and
Thomas Abruzzo fought a duel with
knives in a room in West Forty-third
street.
• Casselli, known as “Monte,” was
killed and Abruzzo, known as “Ninny,”
suffered wounds which probably will
terminate his life.
The two men were in flight from
Boston, where they had completed a
series of robberies with as mean a
murder as the police ever knew, when
they fought over the division of spoils.
Casselli, Abruzzo and Frank Cas
selli, a cousin of “Monte,” and known
to his companions as “Slim,” fled to
Boston from New York less than two
weeks ago and there committed sev
eral burglaries and highway robberies.
“Slim” Gets $20 Gold Piece
The last crime of the trio there was
the robbery of a waiter, from whom
were taken several bills and a $20 gold
piece. “Slim" took charge of the
money on the way back to their rooms
ami when the time for division came
the $20 gold piece was missing.
“Monte” and “Ninny” knew that for
years it had been a favorite trick or
“Slim’s” to swallow the stakes in a
crap game and they accused him of j
swallowing the gold piece. With no»
more compunction than would move a
butcher in killing a chicken. “Slim”
0 was killed in a most brutal manner,
with knives, and the body was cut
open and searched ror the missing:
coin.
Not being skilled anatomists, “Mon
te” and “Ninny” failed to find the coin
and left Boston, returning to New
York. The murder of “Slim*' was a
mystery to the Boston police until the;
autopsy revealed the $20 gold piece in
the stomach.

that the dead man had ben identified
as “Slim” Casselli was printed in the
New York newspaers. That story was
seen by “Monte” Caselli and “Ninny”
Abruzzo in their room in Forty-third
street.
Abruzzo, according to his later
statement in Polyclinic hospital, sug
gested they leave New York at ome
and go West. Casselli said no. Abruz
zo demanded his share of the crime
fund. That started the fight. The two
men attacked each other with the long
blades of pocket knives.
Mrs. Neydel, who rented the room
to them, heard them struggling and
cursing and called a policeman. All
was still when the policeman reached
the house. He broke in the locked
door and found “Monte” Casselli dead
and Abruzzo helplessly wounded.

LOST HIS HAND
HAINES, July 25, (Mail Correspon
dence).—Fritz Nelson, employed near
Porcupine, lost his hand in an explo
sion recently and while be in- taken to
the hospital plunged 225 feet down
a clilT while in a wagon, without re
ceiving additional injuries. In the first
accident his face was badly lacerated
and his eye injured. Nelson was
placed in a wagon and sent to Haines.
At the time of the last accident
the wagon was ascending the steep
grade, a short distance west of the
High Line bridge. The kingbolt hold
ing the doubletrees to the wagon
broke. There was no brake on the
wagon and no safety chains connecting
the doubletrees to the wagon. The
driver was pulled clear out of the
wagon and it started down hill. Ihc
attendant to the injured man jumped
out and attempted to block the wheels,
but was unsuccessful.
The wagon reached the edge of the
blu IT and turned over, crashing to the
bottom, 225 feet below. The vehicle
was broken into small bits but the
injured miner was found lying on his
mattress at the foot of the bluff, ap
parently without having suffered fur
ther injury on account of the fall.
When the accident was reported to Mr.
