TRIO BREAK OUT
OF CITY LOOKUP
Three Men Being Held for Federal
Authorities Figure in East
Moline Jail Delivery.

Unsettled conditions in the East
Moline police department were
probably responsible for a good
sized Jail delivery yesterday even
ing. At any rate a new cop was on
station duty at the time when three
men broke the lock of the one cell
into which all had been confined.
They quietly made their exit by the
back door of the station and walk
ed away, according to reighbors
who saw them, but from the com
posed and deliberate actions Of the
men, they supposed the authorities
had given them their release.
The three men were arrested
early yesterday charged with steal
ing between $500 and $500 worth
of clothes from an American Elk.
press company car in the railroad
wards in East Moline. They were
being held for federal authorities.
Names given by the men are John
Churchill of East Moline, Frank
Creswel of LaSalle and William
Sherman of Kenosha, Wis. The
clothing which they are alleged to
have stolen is said to have been re
covered
Escape of the trio was affected
about 7.S0 yesterday evening. The
new officer was about the station
but he heard no unusual noises.
He was apparently ObliviOuS of
anything unusual in the small
building which houses the police
headquarters and cells. NeighbOrs
report that they saw three men go
| out of the rear door about that
hour but supposed they had been
given their liberty inasInuch as
there was no great rush, the men
strolling off in an unCOnCerned
manner in order not to arouse sus-
piciOn. Not until half hour after
the escape was the absence of the
men noted by the officer. Up to a
late hour today no trace of the Jail
| brea kers had been found and 1t is
expected that by now the men are
in distant parts. Authorities in
surrounding cities have been mott
