EX-CONVICT IS KILLED
WITH PISTOL THAT HE
DRAWS TO SLAY ENEMY
Angelo Goes Forth
to Do Murder, but Bites
the Dust Himself
PEACEMAKER'S FATE
Frank Greenan Tries to Stop
Fight and Charge of •
Murder Results
Angelo Costello, an- ex-convict, was
shot and killed at Montgomery avenue
and Broadway last night in a figbt
with John Luchetti and Frank Grea-.
nan. In a dying statement Costello
accused Greenan of 6hootlng him.
Greenan and Luchetti gave themselves
up to the police.
According to the report of the police,
Luchetti and Costello have* been ene
mies for some time. They met last
night and Costello drew a revolver.
Grfenan attempted to separate the men
and during the struggle the weapon
which Costello carried was discharged,
tbe bullet taking effect in his breast.
H? was hurried to the central emer
gency hospital and died on the operat
ing table.
Luchetti say» that he received $50
from the relief committee - some tima
ago -with which to build a house on his
lot in North beach. He says that
Costello claimed to have been instru
mental in securing the money and de
manded $50 commission. This Luchetti
refused to pay and bad feeling arose
between the men.
Luchetti tried to secure a warrant
for Costello's arrest for threats against
his life yesterday afternoon, but as
the police courts were closed he was
unsuccessful. He was given a note
in th<* detective department to Police
men Sullivan and O'Connor Instructing
them to meet him at 6:30 last evening
and to arrest Costello when the com
plainant pointed him out. Luchetti
was on his. way to meet the patrolmen
•when he encountered Costello.
Costello's wife w*s at" his deathbed.
Before he died she attempted to induce
him to deed over 'his property to her,
but he was too weak to respond.
Costello served two terms in state's
prison, one for grand larceny and the
other for receiving stolen goods. =Hs
bore - a bad reputation in the North
beach district, where he lived.
Greenan's home is at 1705 Sacra
mento street, Berkeley. He Is employed
as a salesman in Sloan's furniture
etore In this city and bears a good
reputation.

BANK IS HELD LIABLE
FOR THE RAISED CHECKS
Judge Hunt Decides Against
the Contentions! of the
First National <
Superior Judge Hunt yesterday ren
dered a decision in the case of the
Otis elevator company versus the. First
national bank. He held the bank liable
for the changes made in - two checks
of the.£levator company after they had
been signed -by the manager, Samuel
Burger. The changes, and . erasures , In
the checks were so , cleverly.- made that
in one Instance .practically the x whole
face of the check was changed and a
photograph enlarging the check 'a.
hundred times does not show any
traces. One check was raised from
$3.50 to 55,500 and the other from $400
to $1,400. The changes were made by
Bliss, the cashier of the elevator com
pany, who stenciled the raised sums on
the face of the checks. ..
Judge Hunt in his decision said that
the fact that Bliss was ~an employe,
and in a sense an agent of the, elevator
company, does not /-relieve the' bank; of
responsibility for the changes made in
th>e checks.
Judge Hunt based his decision on
the question of responsibility.^ He Jsald
the elevator company had used all duo
caution and! the law was clear on the
point that that .was all' that was're
quired of a signer of a check. ' -5 rf"
