Society
BY Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Feb. PA plot to MUIR
der a priest at the altar of his church
just as Father Leo Heinrich Of Denver
was slain-was hatched in Chicago and
frustrated almost by chance, according
to the Rev. Father E. M. Dunno, chan
cellor Of the archdiocese.
This information was given out by
Father Dunno yesterday to prove fur
ther his contention that the murder III
St. Elizabeth's church in Denver was
planned by anarchistic anti-clericals in
Chicago.
The murder in Denver was similar In
every respect to the one planned sew
eral months ago in which the Rev.
Father Pasquale Renzullo, pastor of St.
Rochs church at Chicago Heights, was
to have been the victim.
Father Dunno will hold a conference
today with Chief of Police Shippy, ask

United States District Attorney Sims
and Col. James e. Stuart, chief of post
office inspectors, are looking toward
the prosecution of editors of italian
newspapers in which denunciatory
items against certain of the clergy of

Charges of criminal libel may also be
made.

taken before Prosecutor Mott for exas
animation on Monday. Johnson was
arraigned In the First Precinct Police
today, but Judge Hahn said.
there was no evidence of forgery, and
1t was decided to hold him as a sus-.
p~icious person. :.
The directory swindle,". which is one
OF the Oldest and most successful in po-
lice annals, has always been the most
difficult on which to obtain prosecu-'
tions and convictions But so persist
ent have been the operators of this
fraud around Greater New York for the
last year that the Pinkertons were ems
ployed b. the American Association of
Directory Publishers to break up. the
gang.
John c.. Groel. of 43 Clinton street,
brought about the capture of Johnson.
Several months g he received what
purported to be a circular Offering to
supply him with a free copy of a GER,
tain business directory. All he had to
do was sign his name to the attached
coupon, making the request for the di-
rectory, and forward it to an adj
dress in New York.
Groel forgot all about the matter
! until a few weeks ago, when a collector
appeared with a copy of the directory,
| which he would not give to him, but
on a fly-leaf of which appeared his
advertisement, and the coupon he had
signed, and which now purported to Ire
/ his contract to pay IS for the adyer-
tisement. He was threatened with suit
unless he paid, and he, therefore, paid.
Then, on Wednesday, Johnson, the
prisoner, appeared with the same cou-
pom, and demanded another So for the
advertisement. Groel then called up
headquarters, and Detectives Kuhn and
Quinn arrested Johnson.
1t is reported by h detectives that
there is a regularly organized gang Of
men at work in the vicinity of New
ark, and tina they have been getting
from IS. to 500 from small business men
who signed the coupons by which they
supposed they were to receive free
copies of a business directory.
