Will I be deported to France?" He was told: "That will be a matter for the Home Secretary to decide."
In French he had made two statements, which were inter- preted to the magistrates, telling how he had escaped from Devil's Island with four companions, after serving ten years there. The statements read: I am a married man with two daughters;

Man Who Gave Capone
His Scar Arrested
New York, November 25. Frankie Galluccio, the man who gave Scarface Al Capone his scar, was arrested in New York, to-day "for consorting with known criminals."
Galluccio, bespectacled, looking like a clerk, knifed Capone in 1928, when Capone was just a "small- time" crook.“
Frankie left Capone's service on Chrictmas Day, 1925, when there were several murders at a night club operated by Capone.
Frankie, arrested on New York's waterfront yesterday, protested that he was only the doorman at the club, but he disappeared “just for safety's sake.”
He told the police: "Since 1925 I've been a chauffeur, though some- times I sell Jewellery.”
Capone insulted Frankie's sister. Frankie handled his knife sa deft ly that when. Capone became the
