POLICE DECOY
CATCHES WEBER
THE POLICE BELIEVE HAND GRIP
THEFTS ENDED IN LOCAL
MANS ARREST.
Detectives cleary and Schllck Earn
Regulations as Marathoners
In Lively Chase.

The use of decoy proved the un-
doing Of Harry Weber, who is held by
the city police on charge Of instiga'
ting the several suitcase and grip
thefts at the Baltimore & Ohio pas
senger station during the past re"
days.
The police, through two pawn tickets,
claim to have the proof that weber
disposed OF TWO stolen grips at one
pawn shop and that he sold another
outright at another place. They are
trying tolocate other missing grips.
Convinced that some person was
paying boys small tips to go into the
station and get grips on the pretense
that they wanted them carried to
other places. the police determined 10
catch the man responsible for the
thefts. A grip loaded with two bricks
wrapped in paper was sent to the sta
ton and Detectives Dave Cleary and
Joe Schlick "plasted" TO await re-
suits. Before ten minutes had elapsed
a boy walked in and got the grip.
Following the boy to the West Flr-
GINA Traction & Electric company ;
waiting room at Twelfth and Chapline
streets, tueS dppI NttAi' N0
boy denied stealing the grip, pointing
out Harry Weber. who, he said. had
given hun a dime to get his grip.
When the detectives looked Weber's
way, Weber broke into d dead run up
Twelfth street. The detectives gave
chase.
If they never had regulations as
marathoners before. the detectives
earned their reps" in that race.
Weber led them hot foot race to the
top of Twelfth street hill, back into
the Second ward, nd over the bridge
to the Island. where he was over
hauled.
i've got a game foot and can't run
very WELL" he painted as he was
escorted into police headquarters.
We'll. I'd like TO know how fast he'd
go if his foot was we'll" Detective
Cleary said between breaths.
II, too," said Officer Schlick.

is evidence, even when the rise in
prices is discounted. Of the recovery
from the effects OF the war which the
Lyons silk manufacturing Industry has
