SSSOSNI TINED EiNS ~ LII
ALL HE KNOWS .-
Defying Pres. L. A. Busby of the
Chicago Railways Co. and daring
others to modest him, Sidney Ossosk,
former general claim agent of the
surface lines, threatened to tell all h g
knows of the relations of the street
railways lines and the machinery of
justice in Cook county.
"Tbey are afraid of me-" says Os-
siski, referring to the officials of the
railways. Ossoski is the man who
originated the grey ghost" the fly
ing ambulance which has spirited VIC
tins of street car accidents to the
company's own hospitals. According
to States Atty Hoyne, Ossosh owns
the principal interest in the Sheridan
Park Hospital, where patients were
taken after accidents
According to Busby, $4,000 was
grated from the company by Ossosh
and E. C. Hagerman, auditor in the
claims department.
Attorney James G.. Condor, who
will defend Ossosh if criminal
charges are made against him, prom
ises an amazing story of traction
methods if the case is brought into
