BENJAMIN Levy" the report
says, "who never has been convict
ed of crime, testified that at the
request of officials in the detective
bureau he had often induced Grim
inals to commit burglary in order
that they might be arrested. He
was strongly corroborated by repu-
table citizens. Levy testified to one
case in which Deputy Commissioner
Dougherty of the detective bureau
gave him $25 with which to pur-
chase burglars tools and after he
succeeded in burglary paid him
SIS for his services. City vouchers
for the amounts in Levy's favor
were found in the comptroller's Of
fee. Dougherty and others involv-
ed were subpoenaed by us and ask
ed to waive immunity before giving
their testimony. This they refused
with one exception and they were
not Intercepted"
The report says the bureau is
hopelessly inefficient and should be
reorganized.

Iowa City, June 6.--The automo-

of the accident, where he was call
ed Immediately upon receipt of a
telegram telling of the tragedy.
''The train-a fast mail running
to make UP time-was going
through quite deep cut" said Mr..
Warey. "The road paralleled the
track, but considerably above 1t and
the people in the automobile did not
see the train. Both the train and
automobile were going at a high
rate of speed. The train came out
of the cut near the crossing and was
upon the automobile before the ma
chine could be stopped or turned.
The auto was right in the middle of
the track and was thrown fifty feet,
landing between the double tracks,
with the bodies of it's passengers ly-
ing all around. The passenger
train passed without hitting the car
again and stopped as soon as pos
sible.

Mrs. G. c. Dawson, got UP and walk

her arm hurt and looking down, saw
that it was gone.
"Eph Dawson and Mrs. j. L. Daw-
son were instantly killed and were
terribly mangled and crushed SO asl
to be almost unrecogni2able. Thel
little girl also died instantly. ]. L.
Dawson had scarcely mark on him,
save that his leg was broken. and
he lived for two hours.
"a doctor was secured In a short
time, and my daughter was given
and her arm amputated
above the place where it was cut on.
Both of the survivors say they did
not see or hear the train and did not
know it was in the cut"
The bodies of the four victims OF
the accident will arrive here today
