An Arrest That May Lead to Sensational
Developments.
CHICAGO, April l.-Aleck Lyons, the
clerk at the lodging house at Nos. 326 to
32S South Claik street, has been arrested.
Lyons WAS implicated by the confession G.
Ed. Gam, who 10 awaiting trial for illegal
registration, and who at the time Of his ar
rest made confession under oath that he
bad been steered to the place OF registry by
Aleck Lyons, and that Aleck engineered
the colonization Of the Ninth precinct Of
the First ward to great extent. On the
strength of this confession, maaetwo weeks
ago, q warrant Was sworn out for Lyons,
but the detectives did not find him. 1t
was clsimed he had left the city to escape
arrest.
Lyons was the one most wanted by the
detectives, for if he "squesled" they ex.
pected to get proof against some people
higher up who were rsspensiple tor the
frauds. Lyons was finally found last even
iug and arrested. The prisoner was tsken
before Judge Lyon, and, waving exsmins-
tion, was held in $500 bonds to the Grand
Jury. His employers did not appear to
give bail for him He admitted to the
constable having taken q number of peo.
pie to the place OF registry. In fact so
many that be did not recall them all. But
he did not admit that he knew them not to
be legal voters, or that he was employed
TO do the work. The exa mination was get
for next Monday OF Z p. m.
