Irving Station Burglary.

From a little different angle is the
story OF the burglarizing Of the Irv-
ing Park police station. This story
came to light when a reporter called
up the station and told the sergeant
the place had been robbed. The
sergeant made an investigation and
found it was true.
The robber Is known. He confess
ed to the newspapers. He is A. W.
Dawson, an Investigator for the Chi
cago Law and Order league. A couple
of nights ago he went to the station,
where he Is unknown, walked past
detectives, went UP stairs and into
the court room of Judge Mahoney.
The door to the judges chambers
being locked he forced it open and
went in. Then loading his arms full
of court files, he walked out the way
lie came. Reporters have returned the
files to the station.
And in the meantime yigilant citi-
zens are walking the streets at mid
night looking for stray cops who have
had few too many and may be con-
templating shooting UP the town.
