(Special to The Times.) ' East Chicago, Ind., Aug. 26. The po- j Jicja have arrested a-ring leader in aj gang of young hoodlums who have leen making their headquarters in dugouts of their own construction, and who have carried on a carer of petty thievery for some time. The boy ar- I rested is Peter Beschen of 4949 Alexander avenue, aged fifteen, and he is one of eight boys who constitute the ; gang of "outlaws." The arrest was made yesterday even- i ing by Officer Joe Lencioni, who, is in- ; asmuch as his prisoner had been ai captive once before and had given the j police the slip on that occasion, hanacuffed the youthful prisoner and . led him thus into the station. Pete was found hiding In the hay-loft of a barn ) In Oklahoma, after a search of some days by the police. His chief claim to police notice was the theft of a watch from Peter Litivich and the police hope now that the younters is captured to round up the entire gang. . ... i Other depredations .committed ' by "Pete and his young companions include the theft of a tent from a man known as "Dick" near the chemical-plant, and which-the boys burned Tearing detection. t Pete.. Implicated two boys whom he referred to as Steve .and Marcus, who he said had a rifle they had stolen, but-he claimed not to know their last names. 4 - 't- I ; ' Not satisfied with one cave the boys have dug three, all of which are said, to have more than one room, arched passage ways'leading from-one .room to.another. These are burrowed out of the sand. The dugouts are kept from caving in by means of posts and sheeting. The police Investigated the caves and found littlei in them besides a litter of straw , on . which some of their number had been-in the habit -of passing their deeping hours. Their practice had been to .supply themselves-with - food from gardens and poultry" roosts,-cooking the stuff they stole over open fires.
