chief wanted closed, and was to
talk to church and civic societies
about these places. But he was
not to attack a place that was on
the lists of Hyman and Costello,
said by him to be paying tribute
to the chief and other members of
the. vice trust.
This artistic scheme failed of
success only because, at the first
exposures, the civil service COM
mission took hold of the matter,
and started the present investiga-
ton.
Brolaski named Aldermen Ken
ma and Coughlin as the bosses of
the South Side levee district, and
told of their operations.
"The whisky sale in this, dis
trict is controlled BY Coughlin,"
he said, ''and Kenna controls the
beer sale. In disorderly houses
along Dearborn St. and Armour
avenue, the inmates are compell-

they buy on time at 500, while
other clothes cost proportionate-

only to the silk house that enjoys
the monopoly"
