In the new confession in Hoyne's
hand it is said about twenty-five po-
ieemen are named. It explains fully
the organized gang of conmen, wire
tappers, grafters and blackmailers
who operate from coast to coast.
In every big city these men had a
fxer who reached the police. In Chi
cago this fxer was Barney Bertsche.
But there was another gang spring
ing up in rivalry to the Bertsche
crowd
This was the gang who had their
Offices In the Imperial building and
who hung around Tom Kerwin's sa-
loon, 81 N. Dearborn st. Lately this
gang has been having the inside track
with the police who had soured on
Bertsche after he was convicted IN
the clairvoyant swindles.
The rival gang was headed by Ed
Rice, now a fugitive in Mexico,
Waco Kid" Powell and Clarence
Class. The latter, a former prize
fighter and promoter of fake fight
swindles, has confessed.
AS a result of his confession Ker-
win has been locked up and the real
story of the battle of Randolph
street." in which Bertsche, Bill Egan
and Skip Monaghan shot each other
down, has leaked out.
According to new information, the
gun fight occurred after Bertsche had
announced his intention of opening
up new pay-off joint.
