JAIL ALLEGED BLACKMAILERS
Men and Women Arrested by U. S.
Agents-Thousands of Dollars Col
lected From Wealthy Persons.

Chicago, Sept. 19.-The five men and
government officials and city detec-
tives in a raid on the Tyson apart
ments, East Forty-third street and

band that has mulcted wealthy men
and women out of $25O,OOO or more,
are to be tried in Philadelphia.
The bonds of the eight were fixed
but they are still held in the county
Jail in default of bail. Those held
are:
Henry Russell, Edward Donahue,
alias doc Donahue," Helen Evers,
said to be the wife of George Irwin,
alleged director of the Group; Mrs.
Frances Allen, Mrs. Edward Donahue,
wife of DOnahue; James Christian,
alias "W. J. Cross" Frank Croker,
George Bland.
Mr.. Clabaugh says those held, to-
gether with others at liberty, have
fleeced at least 10 prominent men
and women in Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago and New York by blackmail
methods of most modern type. He
said there were many other victims
who never complained, fearing the no
toriety.
1.-THE women flirted with wealthy
men and then demanded money from
them on threats of exposure and the
men did likewise with wealthy women
and made similar demands" Mr.. Cla-
baugh asserted.

each other and said,

Mr.. Downy Woodpecker.

water off the harbor entrance she cast
anchor, the flames creeping forward
meanwhile from the after hold to a
point amidships. Boats were swung
out and lowered and the work of tax

AS fast as a boat became loaded it
proceeded to the government bar

the passengers were transferred.
By dark all were off the Congress,
and the Niche and the Tillamook
headed for the harbor. The Congress
by this time was completely wrapped
in flames from stem to stern.

CHIcAGOAN SHOOTS HIMSELF
WHEN BANK REFUSED LOAN
OF $4,000.
HAD DEPOSITS OF 100000

by the States Attorney-Bank VIII
Pay Depositors in Full, Says Wife
of Dead Man. , f-se .u-

Chicago, Sept. 20.-Joseph Tuna,
owner of the Tuna Savings bank, 4O13
West Twelfth street, one of the pri-
waite institutions under investigation
by States Attorney Hoyne, shot and
killed himself while standing on pier
In the lake at the foot of Wrightwood
avenue. ..5
He had applied to a downtown bank
earlier in the day for a loan of $1O,-
600. Failure to obtain it and worry
over the states attorneys investiga-
ton are believed to have caused his
act.
The shot was heard by Thomas
O'DOnnell, a Lincoln park policeman,
who recovered Tuma's body, which
was taken to Bentley's undertaking
rooms at 271O North Clark street.
Assistant States Attorney Alexan-
der E. Arkin at once was sent to
Tuma's bank by Mr.. Hoyne. He found
records indicating there are deposits
of 100000.
Attorney w. e. Clark, counsel for
the banker, was an early arrival and
assisted in obtaining access to the
records.
Tuna had visited the Union Trust
company and applied for loan of
$4,000. This was refused on the Sc
curities ne offered, according to Mrs.
Tuna.
( my husband was worried over the
withdrawal of a number of accounts
this forenoon and wished to arrange
TO meet a run if we shoAld have One,"
she said 1--WE had about $4,000 cash
In the bank, but he thought we ought
to have $4,000 more.
Every depOsitor will be paid. He
always saw to that. He was very
saving. His home is good enough, but
he could have afforded a much better
one. His amusements we're simple
trips TO parks, long walks, visits to the
less expensive entertainments, the
movies, and the like"
A large crowd assembled in front
of the bank as the news of the suicide
spread throughout the neighborhood.
All who came said Tuna was a much
respected citizen, and expressed con-
fidence none of his depOsitOrs would
suffer loss.
The bank was established twelve
years ago and is one of the largest
private banks in the city.

HALT ACTION ON s-HOUR LAW
Not to Act Until Measure Be-
comes Effective,

New York, Sept. 16.-Presidents of
the railroads operating east of Chicago
held their regular monthly meeting in
New York. 1t was understood in
Wall street that the eight-hour law
was the chief subject Of discussion.
From what could be learned the east
ern railroads will not follow E. P.
Ripley of the Atchison in fighting the
new law. The general feeling In rail-
road circles is that no good can be
accomplished by undue haste, as no
real action can be taken until after
the law goes into effect on January 1,
1917.
