Hard to Catch.
The first intimation that Hawley

office when the Office was called and
given the information that an Over
land touring car was speeding north
on Rowland avenue running without a
tire on the left front Wheel Captain
Clausen, Officers Beam and Fenske
answered the call and when they ar

Studer and Behnke also looking for
Hawley's car. He had just smashed
into the car of Lloyd Whitman, of 1876
Congress street, parked on Middle

rate of, fifty miles per hour, officers
said The car narrowly escaped run
ming over Behnke in its haste.
Two others were noticed in the
car with Hawley. But when the driver
was arrested he was alone, and ac-.
cording to Captain Clausen, in pretty
bad condition." He was brought to

An hour later Captain CIausen, Of
ficers Fenske. and Beam found two
young men walking in the vicinity. of
the Northwestern station. They could
not give satisfactory account of
themselves to the officers. They were
booked on the charge Of intoxication
and they gave their names as Claude
Haedrich and Frank Hubbard and said
they lived at 355 Orange street.
But Captain Clausen wasn't salts
fed with their stories. He ordered
them placed in a cell over night and
detailed an officer to go down into
the "hole" in the dark and listen to
their conversation. A moment orr two
after they had been locked up the boys
began to talk. One of them said, ac-
cording to the officers report later,
"We'll slip it over on the police and
plead guilty to being drunk in the
morning and then get away before
they find out we're from New York"
They also gave several hints about
a stolen car and after the officer had
reported his information the police
ordered the two held In. Jail until
