U.S. BREAKS UP GANG i v OF ALIEN SMUG6LERS Immigration Inspectors Nab Two Leaders. BrAasviile, Texas.--With the trial, convfejpn and sentencing to Jail of Isaac^raram and Juan Samano on charges of smuggling aliens into the United States, it is believed by Unite*' States Immigration authorities here that the two leaders of a far-reachband of border lawbreakers have been disposed of. temporarily at least. An investigation is now being made to determine whether or not the smuggling organization had ramification* in New York, Europe and the different porfls of Mexico. Hundreds of aliens, mostVof them Greeks and Italians, were clandestinely brought across the Hio Grande by Amrani and Samano. Am ram. Who Is only twenty-six years old. speaks English, Spanish, French Greek, Italian, German and Turkish fluently and has a smattering of various other tongues and dialects. He has traveled extensively through Europe, Asia, Spanish America and the United States, acquiring his education in tills country. Charge it $100 a Head According to his story, his grandfather, a Spaniard, settled in Turkey, .and 1>£ was born in that country, coming to Mexico several years ago. Some of the languages he acquired as a youth/along the Mediterranean; others he (.studied in universities. Juan Samapo was until recently a magistrate at Re.vnosa, Mexico According to Arnram'g version of the gang's activities. Italians and Greeks were brought across the riter, the smugglers charging $100 a head for thifr service. Belief that the organized gang of alien smugglers operating from Rey* nosa had been broken up by the arrest of Samano and Amram was expressed by Brownsville immigration oflieers, who assert that through the activities of the organization many Greeks and Italians were brought to this sidiS of the Rio Grande. The confession of Amram and the details 4 brought out In stories told by tile captured aliens coincided. ' & . Leader Smuggled In. American immigration officials had ascertained from several Greeks and Italians, apprehended after they had crossed the river, that Samano was a 'member of the organization which had vits headquarters at Re.vnosa and had been endeavoring for several weeks to effect his capture. He was finally apprehended at the American customs office at Hidalgo when he crossed to get a manifest on an automobile he i had purchased. j, Amram stated he was smuggled across the river at Reynoaa two years ago. 8amano aiding him; that he wen to New York, where he was employed as a musician, and later came back to the bordef and became a member of the Reynosa band. FAMOUS BELL BACK IN SAN FRANCISCO 4*HE WORLD kAS A\NEW AND FINER MOTOR CAR Iked in Early Day* to -Out Citizen*. • Sea Francisco.--Priceless feBe of early days in San Francisco, the Vigilante b^ll that use<f to summon the people to council and war at Fort Gunnybags, here In the '7>0s, has been hung In the marine ^eaprtnient of the chamber of commerce, a\glft to the chamber from the First Baptist church of Petaluma. Stirring memories of those times which tried the hearts of San Frattcisco's best men and the necks of her worst were recalled when Robert Newton Lynch, vice president and general manager of the chamber, announced the presentation. It was through his efforts that the bell was brought back here. The bell was purchased In 1856 by the Vigilante committee, of which W._ T. Coleman was then president. It was bought from a Boston firm of metal workers, Conroy & Connor^ weighed 1,100 pounds, and cost $1,500, It is bronze. Hung in the steeple of old Fort Gunnybags, It sounded the death knell of many a reckless villain, proclaimed peace and victory to tlw upright and struck terror to the hearts of the vlclons" when the Vigilantes found It necessary to take the law Into their own hands. In 18r>8, when the bell no longer, was required, the residents of Petaluma bought it from the Vigilantes for $550 and hung it in their first Baptist church. There it was used both for religious services and as a time bell, sounding the hour ut 6 a. m., noon, and 6 p. m. When the Civil war started. Union sympathizers rang it to announce Northern victories and those friendly, to the Southern cause be came angry. To prevent discord among members of the community, the bell was taken down and hauled away one dark night to a warehouse. A few hours later Northern sympathizers returned It to the steeple, hoisting the Stars and Stripes above it. The next night a Southerner made his way*, unobserved Into the balfry, and with a hammer sought to silence the bell forever. He made a big crack In It, not unlike that In the famous Liberty bell, but this had no silencing effect. The bell remained in use until 1007, and its chimes could be heard through the countryside within'a tenmile radius. , X ' . & -Vv ^ J ; I It is a fact that the Steering M§e aitd Rufhtgl comfort of the Nash "400" are so far superior to anything you have ever experienced that, once you drive the new Nash, you will never, we be- ... lieve,be satisfied with any other car. & --•Mm •-H -<ri s. \ 'h.'
