ARRESTED ON SIGHT,
CAPONE IS JAILED
Prisoner for Second Time in
Miami-Authorities Firm
on Custer.

BY the Associated Press. 80
MIAMI, Fla, May 14-"Scarface Az
Capone slept on jail cot last night,
prisoner for the second time since
Miami authorities determined to cut
short his stay here by arresting him
on sight.
Seized while attending boxing bout,
the harrassed gang leader was placed
in jail at an hour which his attorneys
found to be too late to locate Judge
Tor a habeas corpus hearing.
When Capone first was arrested last
Thursday on technical charge OF in
vestigation" Miami police described their
tactics as an adoption of the Chicago
plan" of picking up gangsters when
ever they are seen on the city's streets.
In OBTAINING Capone overnight, how
ever, they outdid the authors OF the
scheme, for although Chicago police fire.
uuently questioned Capone, his only jail
experience was his 10-month sentence
in Pennsylvania for carrying concealed
weapons.
Three companions were held with
Capone. The police order to arrest
Capone on sight was suspended tenn
porarily early this week when he peti-
toned the Circuit Court Tor an IN
junction forbidding his arrest without a
warrant. The order again was placed
in force, however, when Judge Thomp-
son declined to hear the petition until
similar action on file in Federal Court
was withdrawn.
Proceedings to paddock Capone's
palatial Palm Island estate as
nuisance are pending in State courts.

his legal department puzzled, his jail
empty and all the city's prisoners free.
He said he thought Couch had no
moral right to take such action" but
doubted II there is any legal remedy
for the situation.
Most of the liberated men are said to
be habitual offenders. Couch emptied
the jail, but soon after the prisoners
were set free, the police were swamped
with emergency calls. 1t was a record
day for arrests here, and police at
tributed many of the petty crimes to the
prisoners.
Alderman Couch now is under in
dictment on charges of bribery in con-
nection with the recent municipal graft
investigation in Atlanta. His case has
not yet been called for trial.
