The case of Andrew Postiglione, a tailor, who was arrested the other night, gives about as unsatisfactory a state of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness for this resident of "New-York as could be imagined. This man, Postiglione, a tailor, reported to the police a week cr two ago that he was being hounded with threatening letters by agents of the Black Hand. The police made certain all of which were learned by his persecutors, as their subsequent letters showed. Finally, Postiglione was shot at in the dark-by a. man lurking and watching 'through the tall iron fence surrounding the cemetery.

The bullet passed through Postig-lione's hat. and he a pistol and fired five shots at hi3 assailant, who ran away and Then the' tailor fainted and. was picked up by the police, who arrested him under the Sullivan Law, since he had no license to carry a pistol. This outageous paradox also clearly shown, that the man assailed is under arrest for violating a mischievous law which should be repealed, notwithstanding strong probability that if Postiglione had not been armed he would have been struck and killed by another bullet from his assailant, who also had a -pistol. Possibly the latter also had a license.
