Great Interest Taken In Dangerous Venture in
 England.

London, Feb. First attempts to fly from Cairo to Capetown will be watched in England with an interest equal to that taken in the flight of Captain Ross Smith from England to Australia. This is largely due to the fact that much of the country to be travelled is of the widest character and is very remote from civilization.

POLICE TRYING
 TO ROUND UP
 ALL SUSPECTS
Hope to Get Them Before Enright's Friends Cancel
 Score.

Chicago, Feb. War among Chi cago's gunmen and labor union feud- tsts to avenge the murder of 'Mossy'' Enright, chief of feudists and leader of gunmen, today hinged upon police efforts to apprehend and hold sus- poets before the dead mans friends found them and cancelled the score in their own fashion.
 The call for the Enright clan had gone out, the police said, and war and wholesale murder" was imminent There probably will be --"ten more killings before the murderer is caught, the chief of police declared.
 EInrIght's fate was decided many weeks ago and gunmen shadowed him, biding their time, until Tuesoay night. Then they discharged the contents of @ double barreled sawed off shot gull into his body as he sat in his auto- mobile in front of his home.
 "We knew Enright was the next of the old time gunmen destined to die,' J said Maclay Hoyne, states attorney
 But we were power1ess to prevent it. The tips were too elusive to fol low up. But we knew it, and Moss must have known it''
 Enright was the 23rd victim of Chicago labor feuds, and the 93rc man to die here by the sawed of shotgun.
 Big Tim" Murphy of the street and his "pal'' Michael Carozzo, presi- dent of the Street Sweepers' union were among those arrested. Carozze was held but Murphy was released He denied he ever used a gun in 2 fight.

ANEW FLU" CASES WITH TOTAL. OF 884
 IS LATEST REPORT
PROBABLE REAL NUMBER IS IN EXCESS OF REPORT BUT CRIPPLED PHONE SERVICE PREVENTS COMMUNE
 CATION WITH BOARD.

Doctors of the city turned in 4I new cases of flu" at the Health Department this morn ing, which places the total number of victims to-date at 884. Three deaths from influ- enza and one from pneumonia was yesterdays toll. It is prob able that the daily number is far in exess of those reported, but crippled telephone service and the difficulty of getting about the city caused many of the physicians to abandon their efforts to communicate with the department.
 The entire staff at the Emergency hospital was constantly on the jump this morning. Even Health Officer Brown was compelled to respond to numerous calls There Is no apparent slackening in the spread of the cpl demic and health officials express the fear today that the heavy blizzard d would probably aggravate the disease.
 To the Board of Education the snow storm was a great relief. It tgave the officials a brief respite in which to secure more teachers, and afforded those on the sick list an ex- tra day in which to recuperate. Supt. Slawson said this morning that the schools would be reopened tomorrow provided the storm abated in it's fury.
 Figures turned in at the office of the board late last night showed that the list of 64 sick teachers, reported yesterday, has jumped to 94, and 2,S5O pupils remained away from school either because of illness or through fear of contracting influenza.
 The constantly rising number of sick teachers is causing an acute con- dition in the schools, according to MT. SIawson. Conditions are helped soTIlS- what by the absence of hundreds of children. At the high school 38 teach CTS are laid up and 330 pupils are out for unknown reasons. Many of the members of the faculties are without telephones and for that reason Supt Slawson has been unable to determine their condition.
