Der of the old "Navy Street Gang"
But New York's gangsters, tradition

appear as the quaint relics Of another

Amusing Happenings
Just as / turned a corner, a lady
was sweeping the walk. When she
saw the Chevrolet she started to
run into the house, but tripped on
the broom and fell on the porch. I
did not stop, but will call on her
during my engagement here, as she
really deserves chance.
One lady answered the door, dish
rag in hand, instead of The Tribune.
She knew her slogan, but I had to
tell her that l did not want the dish
rag.
Another one came to the door with
The Tribune. She did not say q
word, but her mouth went at a ter
rible rate Of speed. Then she said:
"Oh, Mr.. Tribune, / did the worst
thing a while ago. You know, said
that pesky thing to the preacher" :"
and then she shut the door in my
face.
Only 3 Days Left
Three more days to get this mys-
terious Mr.. Tribune's gold. Every
body get busy and give him q run
for his money.
/. The following verses were left ia
my Chevrolet in front of the Capitol
theatre last evening. They were
signed A Tribune Reader:
Who has seen Mr.. Tribune?
Neither you nor i;
But when we get The Tribune
We learn his alibi.
The dishes stand within the sink,
There's dirt upon the floor,
AS l clutch fast to The Tribune
And stand beside the door.
No dinner on the table stands
To meet the hungry eyes.
The latest slogan just arrived,
Which / must meinorize.
And here | wait, but should see
That darned old Chevrolet,
know could not say a word
But just faint plumb away.

Traces Republican Reign
Tracing the record Of the Republic
can administration in the last seven
and . half years, Governor Smith,
defined the Platform declarations Of
that party in the last three cam
paigns as amounting to nothing
more than promises"
Calling the Republican candidate
"the trusted adviser" Of the admin
istration on agricultural questions
the governor said Hoover assumed
full responsibility and still assumes
it, by the fulscme praise tina. he ac-
cords to the Coolidge policies, one
Of which was to knock dead every eff
fort by everybody else to aid agri-
culture and to have no policy Of his
own"
The nominee quoted the statement
by Senator Norris, Republican, Ne
braska, attacking the Republican
platform as direct slap" at the
farmer and asked why Governor
McMullen, Of Nebraska, a Republi-
can, had threatened to invade the
Kansas City convention with "a half
million men and batter down the
doors Of the committee on resolu-
tions in q demand for some definite
promise Of farmer relief"
"Just what they are talking about,
just what they all admit; the dis
tress Of the farmer" the governor
said.
"The best thought on agriculture,
after careful study Of it." he as
serted, "claims that in the last 18
years there has been q decrease in
the purchasing power of agricultur-
al products Of over 20 per cent. That
is the trouble. The trouble is that
the farmer is buying in highly
protected market and he is selling
in an unprotected one.'
The tariff standing by itself, he
continued, will never solve the farm
problem, because it "does not oper-
ate"
Governor Smith left Omaha at
9:37 o'clock this morning for Okla
hom City, where tomorrow night he
will deliver the second speech of his
two-weeks campaign in the middle
and far west.
The long special train carrying
the Democratic presidential nominee
will not reach Oklahoma City until
9 o'clock tomorrow morning. En-
route eight stops were scheduled in
Nebraska and Kansas, the first be-

powerful figure in the old "Cone,

killed on Twentieth street in Brook

leased when it was impossible to di

big Bill" Lovvett and frankie
Healy, other gang leaders in lower
Manhattan and lower Brooklyn, were
killed when it is said Capone was il
the immediate neighbcrhood.
After Capone moved to Chicago
Franks Yale is known to have made
numerous tips to that city. It is de,
clared by Detective Inspector James
J. Sullivan of Brooklyn, who knew
both well in their days here, that
Yale's trips were on the summons OF
Capone when the latter wanted Ger.
tain jobs done, for which Yale was
peculiarly fitted by training and tenn.
permanent.
Capone had another intimate
friend in the Navy Street Gang over
which, eventually. frankie Yale be.
came the boss. This was Ralph Dc
Amato, who is said to have been a
brother-in-law Of Diamond Joe Espo.
sito Of Chicago.
Two Wore Pal Rings
De Amato, Yale and Capone were
friends OF long standing. Not so Ions
ago their friendship was sealed By
Capone himself, who presented each
with a four-karat diamond ring, each
valued at $4,000, and which adorned
the finger Of each until his DEATH,
Yale's collections on gambling, on
the long-known Italian "policy
game" q form Of lottery well estab-
lished in Brooklyn, on alcohol, wet
wash laundries and the various other
rackets In which he was engaged, are
known to have included certain
amounts which went to Capone
There is the story here that even af.
ter the presentation Of the rings Ca
pone suspected Yale of holding out
and set De Amato to spy on Yale.
When Yale found out he was being
double-crossed by De Amato, he
ordered him killed. it is said. AT
any rate, on July 7, 1927, De Amato
was killed.
A year to the day. July 7, 1928, the
anniversary of De Amato's death
frankie Yale, while riding in his au-
tcmobile, fell beneath the bullets OF
assassins. Inspector Sullivan and
District Attorney Charles j. Dodd OF
Brooklyn are convinced that Yale
was killed on orders of Capone, ia
avenge the killing Of De Amato.
Yale is known to have resented the
system which compelled him to pay
part OF his own income to Capone
and at times is credited with having
aspired to Capone's high place.
Retaliation Flames
Retaliation for Yale's killing was
not long in coming, and even more
definitely widens the breach be.
tween the Yale. "mob' in BROOKLYN
and the Capone ''mob" in Chicago.
Just recently Tony Lombardo, lieu.
tenant OF Capone, was murdered on
the streets of Chicago. The killing
is credited to friends Of Yale. who
thus avenged his death.
The war is on. Capone's rule has
been challenged by none other than
those with whom he started on his
career. Their methods are well
known to each other, and Capone's
bodyguard has been doubled. Ca.
pone knows, as Yale knew, and as
all the members Of their respective
mobs know, that no killing in the
underworld in which they move goes
unavenged.
