What sum would be required annu-

termined from existing data. The

certain that the proceeds OF even so

who recently secured fame by his at

their inability to support themselves.
In granting this aid we are passing

FIRE RING" HAD FENCES"
IN MANY CITIES IN U. s.
Chicago Underwriters Declare Accom-

Country.

CHICAGO, June 9.-That the motor
ious fire ring which is held re-
sponsible for scores OF incendiary
fires in Chicago. had ramifications In
Louisville, st. Louis, St. Paul, Gin
cinnati and New York. was the state
ment made today by investigators OF
the board of underwriters, who are
preparing a list of fires in these
cities for police reference.
According TO the members OF the
board of underwriters, the "tire ring
had fifteen. instead of eight members.
and any number OF minor accomphces
in cities all over the country who kept
the fire ring informed as to Good bus
mess points. All members OF the
ring" were blood relatives, and ev-
cry member is said to have become
wealthy as a result of the fire-bug
plots.
The members sometimes stocked
stores which they later burned. or
bought stores already stocked. OF
when business was dull. fired other
peoples stores for commission or
the insurance collected.
The police are said TO have the
names of every member OF the ring"
Most OF them have fed from Chicago,
some of them going to Europe.
Houses are being watched and numer-
OILS arrests are expected. In this con.
nection, 1t is charged that several OF
the fire appraisers, employed by In
surance companies. have been involv-
ed. having been bribed to overvalue
the damage done In these incendiary
fires.
