U. S. REFUSES TO ACCEPT “DEATH" OF RUM SUSPECT Identification of Body Fails to Release Bond Posted by Defendant Bv George E. Schuppe (United Press Staff Correspondent) Springfield, 111., June 20—(UP) — Still doubting that the body of a man, found bound with bailing wire and floating on the Sangamon river near her is that of Dominic Tarro, alleged bootlegger of Benld, federal authorities have adopted a policy of watchful waiting confident from nast experiences that Tarro will show up eventually. Tarro, indicted as the alleged agent for “big business' in the distribution of yeast and corn syrup among Benld bootleggers, was arrested on a charge of conspiracy to violate the national prohibition law in January. He is claimed to have handled, the distribution of products of two companies and his books were expected to aid the government in the trial of the two concerns and nearly two score indivitlnsual, all indicated on charges o f conspiring to violate the dry law. Soon aftei his arrest, Tarro was freed on bonds aggregating $30,500 and disappeared. Last month a decomposed body was found floating in the river. An inquest was held and a coroner's jury decided t.he body was that of Dominic Tarro after friends and relatives identified as such. The relatives say he was kidnapped by enemies and thrown into the river alive. The government's refusal to accept the identification was disclosed when it refused to agree to a motion to set aside a court order forfeiting Tarro's bond of $30,500. It is contended by United States District Attorney Walter M. Provine that Tarro is alive and will turn up eventually. Government agmits are investigating a theory tha’ he went into hiding to escape threats of being "given a ride.” Provine has had experience with “dead” men here before. He points specifically to the case of Albert Blewett, alleged bootlegger and rum runner recently captured several months after his “body” bad been found floating in the Sangamon river near Petersburg. Biewett was arrested in Wisconsin and is awaiting trial in federal court. o He Lived Through It Newport, Ark —(UP) —John Krieger is willing to wager hia luck against anything. Krelger was run over by three automobiles, but recovered. Hit by the first automobile two other cars foliowin close behind were unable to stop. They all passed over Kiieger. o Bear Scares Workers Wynne, Ark. r —(UP)—Negro hoehands do their chopping with anxious glances in all directions these lays. The workers were thrown into a turmoil when a black bear was seen swimming the river in their direction. LADIES’ and CHILDREN’S HATS To be closed out regardless of cost.

' Chicago, June 20.—Chicago has declared war on the underworld! j Incensed at the long series of i gang murders that have turned the streets of the Windy City into shooting galleries, Chicago's business and civic leaders are banding together for a finish fight with thugdom! The merciless slaying of Jake . Lingle, Chicago newspaper man, i the latest in the series of thug- - dom’s killings has already resulted » in Police Commissioner William F. 1 Russell's resignation and the demo- - tion of Detective Chief John Stege to captain. The more militant of Chicago’s modern Vigilantes are also demand- - ing the scalp of Mayor William • Hale Thompson as a necessary pre--8 limiuary to cleaning out the beer- ' mobs and otlwj gangs. 3 Representatives have been reported sent to “Fighting Charlie" Dawes — soldier, banker, ex-Vice--3 President and present Ambassador f to England—to ask him to marshal a Chicago's forces In the coming batt tie against organized crime. Dawes, known all over the couni- try as a two-fisted he-man, would t have to quit his diplomatic post to
end the nigh'marish reign of Chicago's gunmen ami bootlegging kings. Those who know the creator of the Dawes plan say that he would not hesitate a minute if he thought his home city neeueu his help. Just now he is visiting Dwight Morrow’s home in Englewood, N. J., and is due back in London in a month. The shoo, ing down of Alfred (Jake) Lingle has aroused Chicago a pitch of fury that never was , leached in all the furore that followed the machine-gun killing of Assistant State's Attorney MeSwiggin in Cicero four years ago. AfLr ths atrocious "bdmping . off’’ of that young official, the avowals of vengeance made by . Chicago authorities dwindled to a whisper after a few weeks of pointless investigations. This time the press and the rank ’ and file of citizenry have united • and are determined to make the ■ underworld pay and pay heavily I for snuffing out the life of Jake • Lingle. “Gang rule must go!" is their ■ battle-cry and the $55,000 in reI wards offered for the conviction of i -the reporter's murderer is only a
, tiny fraction of what will be spent ' to wipe out the menace of crookI dom. • What Philadelphia accomplished with the help of General Smedley Butler, Chicago feels she can do with the aid of Ambassador Dawes or some other fearless leader. o — Class Reunion Olivet. Mich —(UP)) —The entire graduating class of 1880 of Olivet Collebe reunited here recently after So years. There are just five members.
