CONSPIRACY.

Constables Make Money Out of Pros
ecutions Under the Illinois Flag
Law.
Chicago. Oct. 29.-Corporation Coun-
sci Walker secured a written confess
sion from a man who averred that he
had been in a conspiracy with several
constables to make money out of pros
ecutions under the flag law. The I'LL
nois flag law was designed to prevent
the prostitution of the flag to COM
mercial purposes. The opportunity
was seized upon, it is alleged, by doz-
ems of constables, who used the law as
q cloak to levy. The law was carried
to such an extent that a barber was
recently arrested because the pole In
front Of his shop had red, white and
blue stripes.
