HELD ON CIRCUMSTANTIAL
EVIDENCE-THIRD DEGREE

Police admit they have only cir
cumstantial evidence against Pat Mo-
riarty, whom they accuse of murder
ing Harry Phillips, w. Madison street
jeweler, and this is said to be weak.
After Moriarty accused the captain
of the Lake street station of dragging
him into his Office every Is minutes
for a third degree, his attorney ap-
pealed to Judge Barrett. Judge Trude
had previously ordered that Moriarty
be held in county Jail, away from po-
lice influence. Judge Barrett ordered
him taken at once to county Jail, after
scathing the police for their tactics.

BLOCK SAYS GRAB FRANCHISE
WHEN CAR CO. FALLS DOWN
When street car companies break
a written promise signed in con-
tract, here's what Aid. Eugene
Block says to do,
1. Forfeit the franchise. The city
owns the streets and can take away
from car companies the right to run
cars in the streets.
2. Start a city-owned, city-run car
line. Then if service is rotten the
people can go straight to the city gov
eminent and find out just what's
wrong. AS it is now the people must
go to city council, state utilities COM
mission, circuit court, appellate court,
supreme court, and SO on and so on.
These ideas of Aid Block came out
on council floor last night when he
talked on the Hegewisch extension.
Eleven times now that extension has
been voted on one way or another by
council since 1908, when the car COM
panies promised the extension. And
II times the So. Chicago & Calumet
Co. line managers laughed in their
sleeves at the people along four miles
of road to Hegewisch calling for the
car line promised them.
Blocks ordinance aimed at taking
away the company's franchise and
putting the company out of business
for breaking its contract. He said
the corporation signed a contract on
Feb. Is that it would build this extern
sion and have it finished Oct 1. Not
a rail or a tie has been laid.
Aid. Captain and Lipps argued:
