THERE AS A COLLECTOR

East End Saloon in Interests
of Liquor House

It was not in a barroom brawl that Charles A. Breitweiser, 1368 E. 113th st., was struck the blow with a billiard cue which resulted in his death at St. Clair hospital several days ago, the police have found.

Breitweiser went into the East End saloon in which the blow was struck in his capacity as collector for a liquor house. There he was struck by one of two men who were playing pool.
