Boy Rides to His Death On Bicycle
Unable to Control Machine, He Dashes Into Auto
Premonition of Injury Had Prevented Trip to Europe
MINEOLA, June 1 -- Charles PIQUET, the 14-year-old boy who, while bicycle
riding yesterday, crashed into an automobile, died from the effects of his
injuries late last night in the Nassau Hospital.
	The boy was the son of Louis PIQUET, manager of  Disbert's establishment
near Cold Spring Harbor. Not long after he had started out yesterday for a
ride on his wheel, an automobile in which were Mrs. J.S. CARVALHO, Lawrence,
and a party of friends. (They?) stopped at the Disbert place and their
chauffeur, Wesley GRANT, inquired t(cut off) right road to Huntington.
PIQUET told him to take the West Neck road, and the auto party started off
again. When the machine was traveling at ra(cut off) speed young PIQUET
appeared on his bicycle at the top of a steep incline which runs down to the
road. The wheel traveled fast and the boy was unable to control it. He made
an effort to clear the automobile and the chauffeur tried to get out of the
way but the efforts of both were fruitless and the bicycle dashed into the
motor car and was hurled back by the violence of the shock.
	Mrs. CARVALHO and her guests assisted the injured boy as well as they could
and he was carried to a nearby house, where he was attended by a doctor, who
found that his skull was fractured at the base and that his forearm and
right wrist were broken. He was rushed to the hospital here by an automobile
and everything possible was done for him, but he died late last night.
	The boy's mother sailed for Switzerland recently with two of her children.
Charles was to have accompanied them but he refused at the last to go,
saying that he had a premonition that (cut off) would meet with some injury
if he (cut off) home.
	(Note: "wheel" is an archaic term for bicycle.)

Mad Italian Kills Wife and Flees
Santo TUERANO, in fit of jealousy, Shoots Woman After a Quarrel
Tragedy in Degraw Street Tenement
Believed to Be Hiding in Neighboring House
Santo TUERANO, 28 years old, shot and instantly killed his wife, Covetti, 22
years old, at their home, 124 Degraw street, at midnight last night.
	Prior to the shooting neighbors of the TUERANOS who live on the top floor of
the four-story brick house at that number heard loud and angry cries coming
from the TUERANO apartments, and it is believed that the man killed his wife
in a fit of jealousy.
	After he fired the first shots, TUERANO, who was clothed only in his night
clothes, jumped to the window and let himself down by means of the fire
escape to the yard below.
	Neighbors broke in the door and found Mrs. TUERANO with two bullet wounds in
her neck and one in her abdomen, lying on the floor.
	A hurry call was sent to the Long Island College Hospital, but when Dr.
BRENNAN arrived he said that the woman had died instantly.
	No trace could be found of TUERANO, but it is believed he is hiding in a
house of one of his friends in the neighborhood.
	The police of the Amity street station found a revolver on the floor of the
kitchen in the TUERANO house with three chambers empty.
	A small panic was created among sleeping tenants of the house. Men and women
rushed from their apartments attired only in their night clothes. The
reserves of the Amity street station were called out and the policemen
scoured the neighborhood in search of the man.

3 June 1907
3-YEAR-OLD SEES MOTHER MURDERED
Ten Stab Wounds in Woman's Body
-- "Don't Hit Mamma," Boy Heard to Cry
FATHER HELD A PRISONER
Bronx Woman Had Returned to Husband After Quarrel
	Patrolman BROWN of the AIexander avenue station, the Bronx, was
standing at the corner of 145th street and Willis avenue early this
morning when two men ran up and breathlessly asked to be directed to
a doctor. The manner in which the men acted aroused the curiosity of
the officer and he ordered the strangers to show him the house where
one of them had said his wife was seriously ill. The officer was led
to the fourth  story of a brick tenement at 403 East 146th street,
where on the kitchen floor lay the body of a woman with six stab
Wounds in her neck and four wounds apparently inflicted by a
jagged knife in the body.
	BROWN arrested both men. He learned that the dead woman was Kate
KILLORAN, 29 years old, the wife of James KILLORAN, one of the prisoners.
	In a bedroom adjoining the kitchen was a 3-year-old boy, who was
weeping bitterly and saying between his sobs: "Papa hit mama; papa
hit mama." The boy was the son of KILLORAN.
	After Patrolman BROWN had turned his prisoners over to a brother
officer he made an investigation of the circumstances surrounding
the murder. From Martin COSTELLO, who lives on the third floor of
the tenement, directly below the KILLORANS, he learned that shortly
before midnight there was a row in the KILLORAN apartment.
	The noise subsided for a time, according to COSTELLO, then the
quarrel was renewed. He heard hurried footsteps in the room above
and then sounds of loud thumping in the intervals between the sounds
of the struggle. COSTELLO said he heard the little boy crying,
"Don't hit mama, papa; don't hit her."
	Suddenly, according to COSTELLO, there was a crash, as if a body had
fallen heavily to the floor. Then he heard someone turning on the
faucet in the sink. It is the belief of the police that the person
who murdered the woman was washing his hands.
	The police learned that six weeks ago KILLORAN quarreled with his
wife and she left him. Last night she returned home, apparently
reconciled. In the pocket of her jacket was found a note which read:
"Come home, Kate, and let us be happy."
	When KILLORAN was questioned by Officer BROWN, he stated that
shortly before midnight he had awakened his wife and told her he
heard someone at the door. He said he asked for the key to the door,
which according to his story she refused to give him. Beyond this,
KILLORAN refused to say anything.
	The lad who was found crying was taken to the rooms of the Gerry
Society. It is believed by the police he may give some damaging
evidence against his father.

STACKMAN ENDS LIFE WITH GAS
Suicide On Second Anniversary of Death of His Only Son
Wife and Daughter Faint When Told He Is Dead
Grief over the death of his son, two years ago today, caused William
H. STACKMAN, formerly a well-known coal dealer of the Eastern
District, to end his life this morning at his home, 96 Heyward
street, by inhaling illuminating gas. STACKMAN was for many years a
sales agent for one of the largest coal dealers in Brooklyn. He was
51 years old.
	STACKMAN prospered and about three years ago he went into the coal
business for himself and opened a place on Nostrand avenue. Things
went along smoothly until two years ago today, when his only son
died of typhoid fever. The boy was a great favorite with his father,
and the latter brooded for months after over the death.
	About a year ago STACKMAN gave up his business, saying at the time
that he was in no condition to stand the strain and worry. He went
back to the big concern as an agent. His wife and 18-year-old
daughter, Flossie, who is a pupil at high school, tried to cheer
him, but the thought of his son's death never left his mind.
	In commenting on the weather last night, STACKMAN told his wife it
was enough to make a man commit suicide. She paid no attention to
his remark. He retired earlier than usual but got up again early
this morning. His wife, who was awakened, asked what was the
trouble. He told her that it was too warm and that he wanted to go
into the front room and sit by the open window.
	STACKMAN made careful preparation for his death. He secured a
washboard and placed it in the bathtub . He then covered up the
crevices in the door and after turning on the water in the tub
stepped in and laid down. He then placed the gas tube, which he had
connected with the gas jet, in his mouth and prepared to die.
	Some of the gas escaped into the air shaft and got into the
apartment of August SCHMACK, the owner of the house, who lives on
the floor below. SCHMACK got out of bed and went to the cellar,
thinking there was a leak in the meter. Being unable to locate the
escaping gas, SCHMACK rapped on the STACKMAN door and awakened Mrs.
STACKMAN.
	She became suspicious at once and remarked that her husband had
gotten out of bed. She went into the front room but he was gone. She
then traced the odor of escaping gas to the bathroom and found the
door locked. SCHMACK went into the street and found Policeman WELGE
of the Clymer street station, who broke down the door.
	When WELGE reached STACKMAN's side, the body was still warm. The
running water had reached the top of the bathtub and if the gas had
failed its purpose, the water would have soon drowned the man. WELGE
sent a hurry call to the Eastern District Hospital and Dr. SNYDER
responded.
	While awaiting the arrival of the doctor, Policeman WELGE  lifted
STACKMAN out of the bathtub and carried him out onto the stoop of
the house. He worked over him until the ambulance arrived. Dr.
SNYDER examined the man and said it was too late. He was dead.
	Both the man's wife and daughter fainted when they heard the doctor
say it was too late.

MAN GROUND TO DEATH IN BIG SUGAR WORMER
	John WUTH, 46 years old, of 109 North Eighth street, who is employed
in the Havemeyer Sugar Refinery, at Kent avenue and South Fourth
street, was caught in a machine shaped like a screw and known as a
"wormer" this morning, and was ground to death. Several fellow
workmen who ran to WUTH's assistance in an effort to save him
narrowly escaped sharing his fate.
	The "wormer" is a sort of propeller which sifts the molasses from
one vat to another. A piece of bagging got caught in the machine
today and WUTH tried to get it out. In so doing he was caught from
the back by the ponderous machine and slowly drawn to the horrible
death.
	When some of the other workmen saw WUTH they tried to save him, but
in the excitement everyone forgot to shut off the power until it was
too late. When the machinery was finally brought to a stop the
unfortunate man was ground to death. It was some time before the
body could be extricated from the machine.

FOUND DEAD AFTER NIGHT OF LIBERTY
	Two inmates of Coombs' Sanitarium in Jackson avenue, Corona, Queens,
eluded the watchfulness of their guards last evening and escaped
from the institution. This morning the body of one of them, R. L.
STEINER, 61 years old, a wealthy manufacturer with an office in East
165th street, the Bronx, was found in the gutter in Jackson avenue,
scarcely a quarter of a mile from the sanitarium.
	There were no marks of violence on the body of STEINER. Indications
pointed to heart failure. The companion who escaped with him, Joseph
KLEINE, has not yet been found by the police.
	It is believed that they might have visited one or more saloons in
Corona and were returning to the sanitarium when STEINER was seized
with heart failure and fell dead. KLEINE, they believe, was probably
badly frightened and ran away to hide in the woods.

(???)  KILLED BY TRAIN
George Fraser Meets Instant Death
at Thirteenth Ave. and Eighty-second St.
MOTORMAN BLAMES VICTIM,
But Witnesses Say Train Was
Speeding Over Crossing.
George FRASER, of 643 Greene avenue, a school teacher, was struck
and instantly killed by a Manhattan-bound Ulmer Park train of the
B.R.T. at the crossing at Thirteenth avenue and Eighty-second street
at 1:30 o'clock this morning. The train was in charge of Motorman
John MINOR, of 201 West avenue, and Conductor Frederick ISAACSEN, of
318 Fifty-seventh street.
	Carelessness is believes to have been the cause of the accident.
although, according to Motorman Minor's story, the fault lies
entirely with the dead man. FRASER had been visiting a friend in the
neighborhood and about 1 o'clock he went to the crossing at
Thirteenth Avenue and Eighty-second street to  get a Sixty-fifth
street train.
	According to MINOR, FRASER, while attempting to board the train, ran
directly in front
of the Ulmer Park train and was ground to pieces It is said by
several persons who witnessed the tragedy that the motorman was
operating his train at a tremendous rate of speed and that he failed
to slow up as he reached the crossing, which it is customary for
motormen to do.
	The Ulmer Park train was crowded with Norwegian picnickers who had
held a festival at Ulmer Park.   Most of the occupants of the train
were women and small children, and when the news spread that a man
had been killed by the train  some of  the women wanted to jump
through the windows.
	The arrival of the reserves from the Hamilton  avenue  station
tended to calm the panic-stricken picnickers.
	MINOR and ISAACSEN were arrested, the former on a charge of
homicide and the latter as a material witness. Both pleaded not
guilty and were held in $2,500 bail for  examination. The bail was
furnished.

TRUNK TOPPLES FROM BRIDGE, KILLING GIRL
	Felomeno BRUNO, 11 years old, of 290 Front street, Manhattan, was
almost crushed to death last night when a trunk weighing 130 pounds
fell from an express wagon crossing the Brooklyn Bridge at
Vandewater and Frankfort streets, Manhattan.
	Frank POWERS of 43 Debevoise place, this borough, caught up the body
and ran to St. Gregory's Hospital. Some of the children hurried to
the girl's home and told her mother of the accident. Learning that
her child had been killed, she became hysterical and attempted to
take her own life, and in the hospital her frenzy and grief became
so great that she had to be restrained.
	Timothy McGARRY, who was driving the express wagon, was arrested on
a technical charge of homicide and locked up in the Oak street
station. Investigation showed that the wagon was heavily loaded with
trunks and valises, and that they were not properly secured. When
the wagon swerved out of the car tracks to get out of the way of a
car the trunk and a valise were jostled over the coping of the
bridge.
	The trunk that killed the girl was marked HALLIDAY, 325 Macon
street, Brooklyn.
