Police Seek New Yorker In Slaying. Ralph Bruinaldo, known in police circles as "Joe the Wop," a car repairman of 329 East Twelfth Street, New York City, is being sought by the police of the metropolitan section in connection with the death of Felix Suzczesny, 39, of 160 Steuben Street, who was stabbed by the Italian during a drunken brawl early this morning. Another victim of "Joe's" knife, which terminated the home-brew fight, is Andrew Zuilkowski, 50, the dead man's stepbrother, who is lying under guard at the City Hospital today with a knife wound over his heart, hospital authorities say he will recover. "Joe's" arrest is expected momentarily and police are maintaining watch not only over his own home in New York, but over the homes of his friends and haunts that police learned are frequented by the stocky little Italian. Has 7 Children. Police who visited the Bruinaldo home in New York this morning found that he had a wife and 7 children. Site told the police her spouse left home early yesterday morning and had not returned. Apprised of her husband's actions. Mrs. Bettinaldo broke down and sobbed while the brood of youngsters clung to her. That bootleg whiskey played the leading part in the tragic death of Suzczesny and the stabbing of his stepbrother, the police say there is no question. The brawl, Zuilkowski admits, in a statement to the police centered on the question of whose turn it was to buy a drink for the trio. The affray occurred in front of the Steuben Street address, and police who later raided the place, found the Hobart Act had been violated. Suzczesny died at 3:05 this morning of knife wounds in the groin and over the heart.
