saere Of seven members of Ge.rge
"Hugs" Mofans gang. long limited.
long predicted and long invest.
gated by every law enforcing body
here. was announced today by an
attaehe OF the States attorneys
office.
Into this blood.red tale of horror
was woven all the complexities of
modern gang warfare. coupling the
massacre to the iron rule of
Cspone. to the murder Of Arnold
Rothstein. New York gambler and
alleged head of A narcotic ring, TO
the staying Of the New York rack
etser, frankie Tale. to the inter
recine gang operations in Chicago
the fight for stills, beer running
ard ''territoryt'--and to the long
list of unseiyed gang murders in
Chicago.
Three Now Sought
Three men ere now sought as
Tie connecting links to the whole
sale murders. They ara Joseph
Lewis. of st. Louis. bank robber
fugitive from Louisville. KY. James
Fay, OF St. Lofts, and Claude Mad.

anc Ray for $4,000 each to
handle" the execution of the seven
North side gangsters.
Three men arrested in Detroit
today and at first believed to be
the men sought, We're released by
police after they had established
THEN identities.
Here lis the story Of the massacre
as rec0nstructed:
When the "Egan's Rats OF st.
Louis broke up, Meddox came to
Chicago and Joined in with Scar.
face Al Capone.
Maddox. expert gunner, was given
the job with Machine Gun Jack

was appointed president Of the con.
Germ of which CapoEe was. chair.
man Of the board.
I.olordo, when his stills were
closed on the West side. went into
Bugs" Moran's territory on the
North side. Bugs called him on
it and it was agreed that Lolordo
would pay 81 500 down for the
privilege operating with ''cut in"
on the profits.A Moran agreed and
was to call for the money at To-
lordo's home the next day.
The latter was shot by two men
who called for the money that
day. Capone was notified. A
"double-cross.
Burke and Ray We're summoned.
A telephone call to the Moran crowd
that st. Valentines Day that a
truck load of whisky was due and
conference was needed on the
price brought the members of the
gang together.
Burke and Ray, according to the
reconstructed story. entered the
Moran garage through the rear
door attired in police uniforms. by
whcih they succeeded in holding up
the men on the pretext of a police
raid
The gang died like animals. That
story has been told
Burke and Ray had safe alibi.
None of the men who saw them do
the killing were alive.

Inspector Henry G. Pratt. chief
of the detective bureau, recon-

Kelly, by his tireless devotion to
duty, both as a detective sergeant
and acting lieutenant, has. con-

in recommending the promotion.
He recommended that Kelly be re-

Inspector Pratt is a candidate

rumored Kelly win be chosen TO
succeed him as chief of the detec.

The order raising Kelly's rank
will take effect Friday.
Watched ON Hill
The selection of successor to
Major Hesse lis being watched
closely on Capitol Hill. where police
affairs have played such promi,
nent part in recent years, and
many members are taking a per-
sonal interest in the situation.
Most of them feel that Hesse's
successor should come from outside
the department. They remember
all of the charges OF misconduct
and graft, and feel that the de-
partment is in need OF new blood.
Most members of Congress are
under the impression. whether right.
" or not. that the local police de.
rartment is made up of a number
of cliques and rival groups and
Wife ordinarily they would favor
pfometion from the ranks. there Is
little doubt under present circunl.
stances they would have more con-
ffdence in an outsider.

Why Stage People
Get Divorces

Actors and actresses. II they want

That's the opinionS OF Lillian
Foster. former Broadway star
appearing as the guest star Of
a local company.
A change OF, taste--thatis what
causes the frequent divorces
among stage folk, Miss Foster
says.
For actresses to marry within
the profession. she declares, is
not only dangerous but often
fatal since it means separation
over long periods OF time and no
chance to keep the home fires
burning"
But business man IL different.
'tYou see,e she explains. "a
