CRIMINAL GANGS
:: OF CHICAGO ::


Between these two points the gang
operated. What had been but strug-
Cling western town was fast growing
into a city, and the members of the new
gang realized that it would not be so
easy to defy the law if once the people
were thoroughly aroused against them.
For this reason they turned their at
tention to the strangers coming to the
little city, and many is the pocket OF
the unwary traveller passing to and
from these two terminal stations that
they picked. Complaint after complaint
was lodged against the men who were
doing this, but never conviction could
be secured. The political aid which
they could call to their rescue was too
strong to permit of that. Out Of this
gang grew a new Market street gang,
which again took charge of North side
politics. From these gangs many of
the best-known crooks of recent years
came, among them such as Minnie DAILY,
the pickpocket, and her husband Clab-
by Burns, and his crowd of shell
workers. From them also came many
of the men prominent in politics and
in business, men who earned their first
political recognition through the eff
forts of their criminals comrades in
stealing and stuffing ballot boxes.

this labored effort it is plain that the

strong feeling in the northern end of
the county, at least, that the rest of

about between now and the time of

Probably the police are right, and the

they done so. and developed into gang
of outlaws it would not have been the
first gang of the kind the Chicago police
had been called upon to deal with, for
Chicago has certainly had her share OF
this class of organized outlaws, who
have held at least portions of the city
at their mercy for long months at
time, and defied the best efforts of the
police to capture or dispense them.
Nearly every section of Chicago has at
one time or another been subject to this
class of outlawry, as wild and reckless
in its way as anything the western min
ing towns ever knew. These gangs that
have defed the best efforts of the police
have terrorized large eighborhoods for
years; have committed murders and
lesser crimes in a wholesale manner I'M
der the very noses of the police and es-
capped all punishment for their sins
against society. They have furnished
to the country some Of the greatest of
its criminals; men and women who
have become noted for their misdeeds
not only in America but throughout the
nations of the world and often they had
the aid of political protection, and have
played important roles in the city's po-
litical history. The story of these gangs

The chief feature of this crowd of

Grated were dives of the lowest kind, in
which they could find refuge when
closely pressed. Under these dives were
holes leading to system of caves be-

killing the majority of the members,
and thoroughly investigated the ter
ritory in which they had so long op.
Grated they found that they had so
constructed these caves that it was pos
sible for them to travel entirely around
the block through them. In this way
it was possible to account for many an

novels the foundations for sufficient
stories to keep at least one man busy

But the police were not so successful

same way, yet it soon developed into
something that was larger in its inhu-

to the greatest possible extreme, and
for anyone to oppose its methods was to
court death at the hands of an assassin.

of exerting their efforts for its suppress

keep them out of the hands of the min

had the entree into every dsreputable

never able to unravel the mystery of
how he secured the revolver with which
he did the murder.
A few years later the same gang
produced Dwyer Seaman, who, with
Mollie Mott, reigned over the gang.
Mollie was one of the most notorious
thieves of the day, and Scanlan is said
before Lieut.. John Bonfeld finally cap
tured him, after severe fight, in a
Twenty street fiat building. An
other graduate of this gang of crimi-
nails was young Healy, who lived with
his father at Healy's slough, disrepu-
table neigh borhood, which has since
been built up with substantial build
ings and made famous through the
stories of Mr.. Dooley. Healy was one
of the toughest characters the police
ever had to deal with, and hardly a
day passed in which he was not in
volved in some kind of an assault ease,
in one of which the police assert he
gave his victim three feet of cuts.
The Hobbie street, or little hell"
gang, gave to the penitentiary more
than 20 men before it was finally wiped
out. Among its most famous char
acters were the 'long and short men,
who figured but recently in the criminal
history Of Chicago. This gang grew
from crowd of depraved boys. whose
chief occupatio had been reading yell
low backed literature, many of whom
served terms in the reform schools.
