His Arrest Requested.

In response to a message sent to Chi
cago by Chapman's acquaintance, State S
Attorney Macclay Hoyne wired Maj. Syl-
vester a request for his arrest. Detec-
tives Berrnan and Cornwen learned that
Chapman. who rooned in a house at 9th
street and Grant place northwest, was in
the employ of Representative O'Hair, and
his arrest was soon accomplished
Representative O'Hair was at the po-
lice station an hour after the arrest was
made and discussed the case with police
officials. He said he would gladly be-
come responsible for the appearance of
Chapman. his employe and constituent,
and the latter was paroled in his custody.
When the time came for Chapman to re-
spond to the charge against him, how
ever. he was missing. Representative
O'Hair. whose employe had made such
poor return for kindness, said he was
willing to aid in his recapture.
Il can excuse a man for wrongdoing,
he remarked, but there is no excuse for
ingratitude."
Last night the police thought they had
a clue to the whereabouts of the missing
Chapman.
