ters near West Van Buren and Hal
sted streets; another near Chicago
avenue and Market street; another
near Twenty-second and States streets,
and still another in the downtown dis
trict. This last clique contains over
80 members, and any exceedingly des-
perate Job" is, as a rule, placed to
their credit. Nearly 300 assaults have
come to the attention of the Employ
ers' association engaged in breaking
the teamsters' strike, and that most OF
them may be laid to the five gangs
known to be operating in Chicago Is
looked upon as proven fact.
When Gilhooley learned of Casey's
confession he was wild with rage. He
tore about his cell banging his hand
cuffs against the wall and vowed to
opportunity ever presented itself.
"You - he roared. If you had
kept your mouth shut they would
never have known anything about it.
They would never have been able TO
prove anything against us. You are
lot of soft-headed idiots and this
talk of yours will land you as we'll as
me. YOU -" Another round of
curses completed Gilhooley's senti-
menls on the matter, and he was led
away. still vowing he would have
Casey's life.
To the unions engaged in these ne
farious plots the numbering bands are
known as "wrecking crews" and in a
playful spirit the cash required to car
ry on the business is charged to "edu-
cational purposes" as pointed out in
| Casey'S statement.
Gilhooleys confession was easy &c
extract from him. AT first he was sui
len, refusing to talk, but a tlattering
word as to his prowess brought his
professional pride to the surface, ant
with it his part in the crimes, Carl

derous tasks with determination and
energy bred of years of experience. ,He
would stop at nothing, even officers of
the law had little effect on his work.
His face is large, full of dark menacing
lines, and itself enough to drive terror
TO the hearts of the stoutest. His wick
edness and daredeviltry appears in his
smile, and one finds himself edging
away from its possessor, despite the fact
that he is under lock and key. His voice
and of all his terrible characteristics
this is without a shadow of doubt the
worst-is heavy, and when anger
arouses him, it resembles the roar of an
African lion more than human noise,
Little wonder that when Business Agent
Casey faced him in court, after confess
ing, that his hair nearly stood on end,
when the king" addressed him.
The numerous sluggings during the
strike, and the apparent inability of the
police to handle the situation, was a
mystery to the average citizen, and con-
sequently the city was astounGed when
the facts were brought to light. Time
and again the press hinted at paid MUIR
ders, but public sentiment deposed the
idea. Now, however, the confession of

lie is not visibly affected, for the simple
reason that slugging is nothing new
here.
The idea must not be gained that every
union in this city has employed men in
murderous missions, for such is not the
case. Many have stuck rigidly to the
straight and narrow path in their fights
with the employing class, allowing moth
ing but persuasion to enter into the sur
rounding conditions of the strike.
Will Benefit Honest Unions.
One benefit of the expose, one in which
the unions will gain, is pointed out by
Louis A. Heile, prominent labor at
torney. He says:
Il believe that the arrest and confess
sions of these men will have great In
fiuence upon the labor situation in this
city. The rank and file of the labor or
ganizations have been kept in almost
total ignorance of the manner in which
strikes are conducted. ! know that the
great majority of the members OF the
Carriage and Wagon Workers union
in fact. nearly all of the members who
are not on the executive board-knew
nothing of what was going on, and were
as much surprised as the general pub
lie when they read Of the revelation
which followed the arrest of these men.
I'VE have never had any quarrel with
legitimate trade unionism. 1t is not
the employers, but the radical leaders,
such as this man Casey, who work harm
to tn cause of labor. 1t is they who en-
ploy these scalawags and who fatten off
of the misfortunes of the honest work
ingman.
Unionists Disprove Singing.

majority of the unionists in the city

INCITED MUTINY.
An English Admiral Once Did This
by KONRl Com mnnd.


Not only did an English admiral once
receive instructions to inclte his men
to mutiny, but he actually carried his
instructions out.
On the eve Of the death of James L..
and as Il result of Prince Charles mar
riage to Henrietta Maria, Buckingham
agreed to lend the Vanguard and sew
en- merchantmen to the French. Be-
fore his promise was fulfilled Ii HUI
gueuOt rebellion at Rochelle broke out,
and by the time Sir John Pennington,
who had been put in command, was
ready to sail the authorities In England
became disagreeably aware that their
ships would be used against the
Preach Professionals.
Buckingham was conscious or the
storm of Indignation this would arouse
in England. In his perpleXity the only
solution that occurred to him was TO
instruct Pennington to get his men TO
mutiny. \ secret message to this ef'
feet was sent him through the Il OF
Pembroke, and Sir John, who had no
wish to hand the ships over to the
French, obcycd and allowed his crew
to carry him and his officers back TO
England.

AN OVERDRAFT
The Reason For a Peculiar Request

1--WE often receive peculiar requests
for Overdrafts," said u banker the 9TH
er day. "a client whose standing ac-
count had never exceeded $1,000 re-
quested us to grant him an Overdraft
Of $4,000, stating that he was not able
TO offer any explanation at the present.
but assured us that ut no time would
the bank be in any danger of losing. as
the Overdraft would not be real.
after some hesitancy we consented,
but stipulated certain conditions and
reserved the privilege of refusing il
these conditions were not followed.
shortly after his departure a well
dressed gentleman came in and handed
to our paying teller a check for $1,000
bearing the signature of our client and
with 1t Il letter requesting us to honor
the check with cash. This letter was
one Of the conditions we imposed for
u safety. Still feeling that we were
taking Il chance, the money was passed
out to him. After holding the currency

with a request for the check, which he
destroyed before us.
ION the following day our client
thanked us for Our courtesy and waiv-
ed the %Overdraft privilege, saying that
he had no further use for it. He had
with him u check for $1,000, which he
deposited. This he had won from his
friend on a bet. He had bet that he
could negotiate an Overdraft for that
amount without first explaining that
1t was n bet and the nature of It, and
his friend wagered that no bank would
trust him for that amount.'-Kansas

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing ii, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-ROot
is o realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
