Leo Spears, Who Started Career OF
Crime in Rock Island. Is Taken
From Ottumwa by Detective.
IOWA OFFICIALS HOLD HIS PAL
Harry Fletcher. Implicated in ProWl
ing Job Here, VIII Be Prosecuted
in Adjoining State.

Leo Spears, who started on career
as burglar in Rock Island two weeks
ago. was brought back from OttumWa,
Iowa, where he was arrested FRIDAY,
by Detective Tom Cox last night. HIS
companion in the crime, Harry Fletch-
err, must stand trial in Ottumwa for a
series of burglaries and automobile
thefts and will not receive trial here
unless on failure of conviction in Ut
tumwa, which is doubtful, since he has
confessed.
Much of the jewelry which was sto-
len from Mrs. Bertha Hoffman, Miss
Anna E. Bailey and Miss Marie Koch
at their home, 1884 Twentieth street
has been recovered. Detective Cox
and Spears were in Davenport the
greater part of today recovering the
jewels, which Spears and Fletcher had
sold to pawn shops in that city.
Some of the jewels were found in
pawn shops in Ottumwa and were
brought back here. A diamond ring
was recovered by Detective Cox in pos
session of a workman at packing
company. The local plain clothes mar
made every effort to secure all Of the
stolen jewelry before he left the Iowa
City.
,. Fletcher was the first of the pair tC
confess following the arrests. After
| he had admitted he had committed nu-
merous burglaries in OttumWa he told
the police there that he had made q
big haul in Rock Island. Spears de-
Mod haipu i'm pIinotad in tho Oftunua

of crime in Ottumwa he had helped

93 LICENSES FOR
SALOONS IN ROCK
ISLAND GRANTED
City Commission Fayorably Acts on
All But Five Applications Filed
With Clerk.
TAKE no ACTION IN CONTESTS
Issue a6 Wholesale Permits to Sell
Liquor and Five for Cafe
Privileges.

Rock Island city commission at its
meeting yesterday afternoon acted
fayorably upon SO applications to
operate saloons during the six months
period, from May TO Nov. 6. In three
instances no action was taken. Since
filing petition, W. H. Healey has pass
ed away and there are contests over
two other places, A. ". Billburg and
John Erbacher both seeking to run
the thirst parlor at 231 Twentieth
street, and George Marshall and ".
p. Conwell, asking to handle the stand
at 1926 First avenue. Judging from
the attitude Of the commissioners
yesterday, no action will be taken in
either instance to grant permits, TAX
ing the position that it is not their
move and evidently waiting for some
court procedure to determine the mat
ter.
Commissioner Liedtke had a letter
from Schriver & Schriver in which it
was stated that this firm had been
retained by A. W. Billburg and ask
ing to be notified when the commits
