they term an "out OF season crime
wave" A party of four holdups rode
around the city in a large red racing

$500 and jewelry on West Jackson
boulevard, one of the robbers said:
Now yell your head off and relieve
your feelings. We can beat anything
on wheels in this town"
Mr.. and Mrs. Moritz Weickert were
attacked by automobile bandits near
their home, which is in the same
neighborhood where Mrs. Edmund
Kaufman was killed in a similar oc-

thugs attempted to chloroform Mrs.
Weickert. An approaching street car
frightened the bandits.
f. G. Minnick of Galesburg, Ill, was
held up and robbed of $50 on South
side street by two women armed with
revolvers. Minnick said he first
thought the women were trying to
fiirt with him.
Robbers held up Samuel Rubin near
his home on the South side. They took
81 and missed $500 in a vest pocket.

JORDAN DIES
IN CHAIR AS
WIFE SLAYER

Boston, Sept. 24-Chester S. Jordan,
sentenced to death for the murder
four years ago at Summerville of his
wife, Honorah. whose body he cut up
and packed in a trunk, was executed

The murder was committed at their
apartments in Summerville, Sept. l,
1908. During a quarrel with his young
wife, an actress, Jordan struck her
and knocked her down a stairway
The next day he dismembered her
body and placed the head and some
other parts in a stove in an unsuCcess-
full attempt to burn them, and placed
the remainder of the body in a trunk
His actions driving about the city with
a trunk aroused the suspecions of his
cab driver, who reported to the police
that he believed his passenger had
stolen the trunk.
Jordan was born 33 years ago in In
dianapolis, Ind, and while on the
stage married Honorah O'ReiIly,
known in the vaudeville as Irene Shan
non. Jordan was brought to trial on
April 20, 1909, and found guilty of the
murder in the first degree, May IA,

ors became insane and was committed
to an insane asylum. The state slI-
preme court refused TO grant an ap-
peal for a new trial, and Jordan was
sentenced to die during the week OF
March ~, 1911. A writ of error being
granted, an appeal from the decision
Of the state court was taken to the
United States supreme court. but the
appeal was denied May q. 1912. and
nearly four years after the commits
sion of the crime Jordan was sensenc
ed TO death a second time.
