CAUGHT IN CHICAGO,

March Arrested When Police Of
fcer Finds Letter from Woman.
Way last March Victor Yoces report
ed to the police department. that his wife
had "gone with handsomer man
and that she had taken his little child
with her. Since that time the police
had been searching for Mrs. Anna
Yoces, the wife, and Anthony Skilkus,
a boarder. Chief of Police O'Hare To-
Gated them in Chicago on Friday.
They were living at an apartment at
1914 Union avenue in Chicago and
were supposed to be man and wife.
They had the little child with them.
The desire of Mrs. Yoces to keep in
touch with some of her friends in Ke-
nosha caused her arrest. She had sent
a letter to Kenosha to one of her
friends and this letter fell into the
hands of police officer and revealed
the hiding place Of the couple in Chi
cago. When the chief went to the
house Shilkus and Mrs. Yoces made no
effort to deny that they were the peo-
pie named in the warrants issued in
the municipal court here. The man
and woman consented to return to Ke-
nosha without extradition and the
hearing of statutory charges against
them is slated to be taken up in the
municipal court late this afternoon.

KenOsha Asked to Send Pro-
test to Washington Before
Meeting Scheduled for
May 18th.
ALL LAKE PORTS TO UNITE

Word has been received from the war
department. at Washington that hear
ing had been set for ten o'clock A. M.
May 18th, on the Illinois waterway
question as presented in petition by
Gov. Dunno. The question involves
the lake levels in serious degree and
will, no doubt, find the various port
cities in an attitude of protest on the
petition presented by the Illinois
state administration.
The state of Illinois proposes to ex-
tend the present drainage canal and
deepen the Illinois river so as to ere
ate a waterway from Lake Michigan
to the Mississippi river. The primary
purpose of this project is to create
monster water power which is to be
conducted as gainful enterprise.
The government is asked to grant the
diversion of enormous quantities of
water in order to provide the power to
be generated. After the state of I'LL
nois has been compensated for it's in
vestment the control of the waterway
is to be transferred to the federal
government. In other words, after the
$22,OOO,O00, together with interest and
other charges, have been turned into
the state treasury, the United States
government is to have navigation
authority over the waterway
The port cities of the great lakes
will unquestionably make strong pro
test, not only against any increased
diversion of lake waters into the drain
age canal, but against the present di-
version of such waters. A lowering of
the lake levels will prove serious

tive to the meeting in Washington, but
it is hardly probable that the council
will see the necessity of making such
an expenditure. However, resolutions
will be sent to Washington from the
city council and from other organiza-
lions in the city urging that action on
the Illinois petition be held up until
it is shown that the level of the lake
at cities along the shore will not be
seriously affected by the proposed
changes.
