The Odd Case of Capone

Whatever else may be said about it, American
civilization of the year 1880 at least furnishes plenty
Of interesting spectacles.
Not least among these, during the last month, has
been the return Of Al Capone to his native heath
Capone spent a year IN the Philadelphia jail.
Finally on a bright spring day, he was released In
stantIy the attention of the nation focused on
him He vanished from sight; would have
thought the heir to the British throne missing. He
was reported in Chicago in Indiana, in Florida and
on the high seas The public could hardly stand it.
Then after days Of almost uncomfortable suspense,
the great man appeared. Straight into the office OF
the commissioner Of detectives in Chicago he staked,
TO draw up chair and hold lengthy discussion be-
hind closed doors, while the nation waited with
bated breath.
1t was a peculiar spectacle, In the anteroom,
gazing raptly at the glazed door, was the armed might
of Chicago as personed in the sturdy forms Of two
dozen or more detectives. Mingled among them were
reporters and photographers, in equal number.
Breath continued abated.
There was low hum of conversation, but 1t never
lasted long. Some one would look up at the door;
others would notice and all glances would fix on the
same objective. And, finally he appeared. Except
for the booming of flashlights, the audience was silent
almost respectful.
Out he went aanked by two lawyers, to enter an
automobile and whrl away. There was something
about it all reminiscent OF the departure OF preS-
Dental candidate from his campaign headquarters
except there was no cheering.
All this OF course derives its special interest from
the fact that the center Of all of this fuss sunless
everybody is mistaken-one Of the most notorious
criminals ever harbored on the American continent.
The doctor who found cure for diabetes could
come and 20 without causing single head to be
turned No living American poet could hope by the
mere fact of his arrival in town, to get frontpage
newspaper space. Photographers do not go out in
droyes to photograph great scientists or humani-
tarians.
But Al Capone is one Of that select band whose
every move is news member of small group which
includes movie stars. professional athletes criminals
and-now and then-real public servants.
You can draw your own moral from all this II
YOU like. Anyhow, you must admit that it has all
been very absorbing.

The international Bank

The bank Of international settlements set under
the Young plan is something entirely new in eco

would be scaled from 11021 for the fiscal year OF
1881 to final quota of 1900.

other immigration.
If quota restrictions must be agreed to by con-
gress this is not the time to do it.
