Clarence Redd, 70, of Hart CHICAGO Tony "Joe Batters" Accardo, reputedly the longtime head of the Chicago mob and a former associate of gangster Al Ca-pone, died Wednesday night He was 86. Accardo died as a result of hear! and lung diseases, said Carrie Qui-dayan, night nursing coordinator at St.

Mary of Nazareth Hospital Center. Accardo was arrested many times on allegations ranging from murdei to extortion and kidnapping. But he was adept at avoiding criminal prosecution and boasted he never spent a night in jail. In testimony before Congress In 1984, Accardo acknowledged he had long been friendly with a number of organized-crime figures in Chicago. But he said he had "never been a boss." But Robert R.

Fuesel, executive director of the Chicago Crime Commission, a private watchdog group, said: "He was the chairman of the mob." Accardo was given the nickname "Big Tuna" by a Chicago newspaper reporter after having his picture taken with a 400-pound tuna he caught off Florida. But Accardo was known by his colleagues as "Joe Batters," apparently out of respect for his skills with a baseball bat William Roemer, a retired FBI agent who tracked Accardo's career for years, said recently he could never charge Accardo, but believed he was one of the triggermen in the St. Valentine's Day massacre in 1929 Chicago. Shortly after the shooting, Accardo was seen in the lobby of Capone's headquarters, the Lexington Hotel on Michigan Avenue, with a machine gun. Accardo, the son of a shoemaker, was born Antonio Leonardo Accardo in 1906 in Chicago's Little Italy.

He dropped out of school in the sixth grade and was arrested for the first time at age 15. Accardo said he first met Capone at a race track, but denied longstanding stories that he once was Capone's chauffeur-bodyguard or that he had inherited his criminal empire. In 1931, shortly after Capone was jailed for income-tax evasion, Ac-1 cardo reputedly was given control of the Capone family's gambling operations in Florida and Chicago. Accardo took over as mob chief when Ricca retired in 1968, although he deferred to Ricca until he died in 1972. DEATH NOTICES RIOUX.
