VOLUNTEER SLEUTHS SEEK
EVIDENCE AGAINST SALOONS

BY Associated Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-Some 200 volunteer
detectives from the subsidiary organiza-
tions of the Chicago Law and Order
league visited saloons in Chicago today
in an endeavor to find If the Sunday clos
ing law was being violated.
The action is in furtherance of cam
paign inaugurated by the league after
the successful election struggles for local
option waged in seventeen counties of the
state earlier in the month.
The evidence collected today will be
presented to the Cook county grand jury
Monday or Tuesday. Leaders in the
movement for dry" Sunday in Chi
cago hope that the inquisitorial body will
find the facts sufficient for the voting of
true bills against numerous saloon keep
ers in each of the thirty-five wards OF
the city under the state law, which car
ries maximum penalties of a 5000 fine and
a jail sentence for each proved violation.
The city ordinances, on the other hand,
provide only nominal fines for such
offenSeS.

LONG BEACH, Nov. 24.--The courage
and presence of mind Of young ana
pretty woman, Mrs. Fred Phillips, re-
suited in the capture of a burglar this
afternoon, man who is thought to pe
wanted in other cities, and, from the
articles found on his person, supposed
to have been carrying on his work OF
stealing for some time.
Early this afternoon Mrs. Philips
while doing in her room at the ST
George hotel, First street and Iowhe
avenue, thought she heard some one
shutting about in the hallway. Going
to the door she made hurried invesi-
CATION, but seeing no one, caued 10
George Evershed, the proprietor. Wniie
Evershed was making searcn OF tiie
upper hallway Mrs. Phillips Went 10 the
office and telephoned to her husband,
who is a member of the Long Beach po-
lice force, asking him to come TO the
hotel at once.
In the meantime Evershed had dis
covered man lurking in dark corner
who, when he advanced, drew a reVoi-
yer and struck the proprietor on the
head, knocking him senseless. He then
made a dash for the stairs just as MIS-
Phillips reached the landing.
The -voman ran to- her room, secured
a revolver, and coming back ordered
the man to halt. The man, turning IN
his flight, found the weapon pointed d.
rectly at his head.
Come back here" ordered Mrs. Phil
lips and the man obeyed.
Now sit on that trunk and hold up
your hands," and the stranger again
did as he was told.
Keeping the man covered, the young
woman compelled him to remain quiet
until her husband arrived ten minutes
later.
The man was taken to the police sta
ton, where he gave the name of John
Ward He is about 80 years of age, OF
medium size and has wooden leg On
his person were found several valuable
stick pins, woman's gold watch and
other jewelry.
A number Of pawn tickets with the
name of Uncle Ike's pawnshop, Los An
geles, on them were also found in his
pockets.
Mrs. Phillips is about 20 years old,
pretty and extremely popular in Long
Beach.

TRIAL OF
THA w AGAIN
POSTPONED
DEFENSE MAYAsk FOR CHANGE
OF VENUE
Attorneys for Slayer Of White Say a
Fair Fearing Of the Case Is
impossible In New
York
nv Associatad Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 24-The second trial
of Harry K. Thaw, set for one week
from tomorrow. will again be postponed,
and there is little chance that 1t will be
called until some date well along in jan
uary.
The decision to ask for a postponement
has been agreed to by both sides. 1t is
due partly to the fact that the task of
selecting a jury would be made doubly
hard because of the approach of the
holidays, and the prospect of the tales
men spending both Christmas and New
Years day locked up under the care of
court baillffs, and also to the fact that
Thaw's counsel has applied to the court
for permission to inspect the secret evil
dence presented before the lunacy COM
mission during the first trial.
AS an added cause for delay there is
rumor that the attorneys now repre-
senting Thaw may apply for a change of
venue, declaring a fair trial for their
client Of New York is impossible.
Such move, If made, would be based
upon the alleged unfriendliness of many
of the local newspapers and the extent
to which the evidence was printed and
read here.
District Attorney Jerome will seriously
oppose the granting of a change in the
scene of the trial.
