LOVEDAY TALKS
TELLS OF ESCAPE

"Hello, boysl", was the greeting
made by Earl Winny" Loveday on
Friday night, when he walked into
the police Office, securely handcuffed TO
Police Detective Charles Rock. He
halfway forced smile as he looked
nervously around the Office and greeted
individually some of the policemen
whom he knew on his former visit to
Kenesha.
Loveday tried to put up the same
bravado which he displayed when he
was brought back to Kenosha from
Hot Springs more than three months
ago but he could not hide the change
that the days Of hiding and the fear of
detection had made on him. He was
nervous noticeably so. His eyes have
that hunted look which shows unmis-
takably how the strain has told on him.
His clothes fit loosely, but despite it all,
once in while one sees that old CLEAN
of hope which he manifested so clearly
here in his other stay in the Kenosha
lookup.
No Attempts TO Escape.
Loveday was ready and anxious to
be taken to his cell in the city lookup.
Chief Of Police O'Hare and Detective
Charles Rock declared that they had
had no trouble at all with their prison
er on the long trip back to Kenosha.
I've had lot of trouble with
YOU" Chief O'Hare told Loveday
when they started from Detroit. "You
have brought me lot of gray hairs and
much criticism. I'd rather take you
back alive, but I IN taking you back y
This warning was still effective when
Loveday reached Kenosha and he Of
fered no resistance to the officials and
seemed willing to have every safeguard
placed around him.
Talkatdve at His Cell.
Winny' looked around nervously
as he was taken into the city lookup
Friday night just before eleven o clock.
He looked knowingly at the cell from
which he had kicked his way to free
dom several months ago and remarked
that the "place looked familiar as he
was locked into the cell next door to
this one. He was handcuffed and in
front Of the cell was posted police

and night while he is in Kenosha
= can't blame you for watching
me, = said Loveday. tits what I ex-
pected. " He admitted this morning
that he had no idea of trying to escape
from kenesha again but that he be-
ieved he might be able to worm his
way out Of the state prison.
Loveday declared he was tired but
not sleepy and while he rested on his
cot chatted reminiscently with some of
the people whom he had known in Ke-
nosha on his former visit.
Tells Of His Escape.
How did | get away?" said Love
day in answer to a query. "Wel, it
was easier than thought it would be.
You see, always try to figure out what
the police expect of me to do and then
take the opposite course. After I
crawled out of the window Of the city
hall here, I went west down the alleys
until l came to the railroad track. I
met no one and 7 walked naturally.
