Just as they were ready to start the

There was no discussion of the merits
of the contempt case INDUCED in by the
three men or their friends. The former

probation of the treatment given them
while detained in jail here.

Alleged Confession.

IT was also related in the published
account that Hurley had last Saturday
night made confession to his grand
mother, Mrs. Hurley, who lives at 1898
Prospect avenue in which he gave her
all the above information, and said that
he feared to break with the gang be-
cause his life would be as good as lost
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-01-29
An Attempt at Theft.

Hurley admitted that he and some
others had tried to get away with a
trunk which belonged to his uncle and
which was supposed to contain $500. He
said they had taken the trunk out into
the hall, but that his aunt called him
just then and that scared them away
Alfred Nelson, twenty years old, was

he was later released. Harry Owens is

Farming More Expensive.

Asked for his explanation of the gen.
eral Increase, the speaker said he thought
the principal cause lay I'm the greater
cost to the farmer of everything which
goes into the production of his crops.
Competent labor is now not only hard
to get on the farm he said, but work
ers in the field demand and receive much
higher wages. The grain which is fed
to cattle costs much more than it did
a few years ago.
Apples, which were formerly permitted
to grow with practically no attention,
now must be sprayed several times each
season, if the grower would have q per-
feet crop. Unless they are sprayed COM
mission men will not accept the crop for
sale or storage under any conditions.
"A multiplicity of inspectors. the great
er cost of grain for winter feeding and
the government-required Improvements in
cow stables, together with the higher
wages for labor. have operated to in
crease the price of milk"
Speaking for the consumer and for the
Anti-Food-Trust League Mr.. Yeagle said
Investigations up to the present time made
by the league have developed that the
cost of labor has gone upward only -;
per cent in ten years while the. cost of
foodstuffs has increased 100 per cent
Mr.. Yeagle inveighed against the gem
eral tendency toward extravaganza among
the masses as one of the crying evils of
ness, he said, were clearly partly re-
sponsibe for the upward tendency of
prices.
At the close of the meeting Chairman
Albert, jr., read a compilation of Statis-
tics. which showed increases varying from
10 per cent to 100 per cent in cost of
many necessities of life within the past
decade.
Members of Committee Present.
Members of the committee present at
the inquiry were A. ID. Albert. jr., chair
man; w. #. Galliher, Robert N Harper,
a. Leftwich Sinclair ]. Louis WilliSe,
Charles w. Darr and Fl. II. Classic.
1t was determined that the inquiry shall
be completed within one months time. Ely
noon at 4 O'Clock was set for the next
meeting.
Arrangements were made to invite local
agents Of the Chicago packing houses.
local packers, local butchers. officers of
the Retail Butchers Association. officers
Of the Retail Grocers' Association and
dairymen to appear before the committee
and testify. A letter was read from one
local grocery firm containing an offer tn
throw open its books for the commit
tee, in substantiation of the claim that
the average earnings of the concern were
Ii per cent.
The secretary of the chamber was in
structed to request this merchant to at
tend the next meeting of the committee
and to bring citations from his books COW
ering the ground over which the inquiry
will be spread.

when he made this statement. He Is
eighteen years old. He read a published
account of the band of forty thieves
and laughed at it.
Somebody's been telin' lies, and I'd
like to know who it was was his COM
ment when he finished.
Harry Fridley. who stood beside his
friend Hurley, also denied any knowledge
of such gang of thieves as described.
Case Continued.
The case against the two boys was
continued until Wednesday, when the
government expects to have sifted the
matter to the bottom, and to be in a
better position to bring the young men
to justice
Assistant District Attorney Ralph
Given, who is in charge of the case,
said this morning that SO far there had
been no developments which would war
rant the story published TO the effect
that there was gang OF boys and
men doing a theving business in Wash
ington which would rival the deeds of
the famous Forty Thieves of the
Arabian Nights. He said that undoubt-
eddy the police were on the track of a
tough gang of boys and men and We're
keeping close watch on them but so
far only four young men had been ar
rested and one of these had been re-
leased Hurley has been up for forgery.
Detective Nermilion, who. with Detec-
tine Rarbee. has been working on the
case. also denied that the police had
found any such state of affairs TO war
rant the published story.
Located in South Washington.
According 10 the report which has
been spread abroad the gang of thieves
has its headquarters in the sOuthW est
section Of the city. but does not confine
its operations to that section. 1t is al
legged that the gang had committed rob-
berries in every part of the city.
1t is also alleged that the men and
boys swear solemn oaths to carry out
the dictates of the rulers of the band,
and that they either kill themselves or
are assassinated by other members of
the band if they fail to obey
1t was related that one member of the
band was recently flung into the river
with d weight tied to him, and that his
body has never been recovered. Still
another member OF the band committed
suicide last Saturday night, it was said
because he could not contribute the
money at the next meeting of the gang
which Is demanded of each member, and
because he did not wish to carry out
the orders of the leaders any longer or
because he feared detection by the police
for robbery which he is alleged to
have recently committed
Alleged Confession.
IT was also related in the published
account that Hurley had last Saturday
night made a confession to his grand
mother, Mrs. Hurley, who lives at 33:,S

confession last Saturday night
Il did see my grandmother last Sat1Ir-
day night, said Hurley, today but l
did not make any confession to her. All
l said when she asked where ! was 60
ing, was that | was going downtown with
the boys"
Hurley was asked if he knew anything
about the young man who committed sui
eide because he was afraid of the gang,
or because he feared the police.
Il guess they mean my cousin. William
Sorrel, replied Hurley. He died last
Sunday at his home, in eth street south
west. But l don't know whether he killed
himself or not; his sister says it was an
accident Anyway. he was in the house
by himself from I:3O O'Clock until IL
