Five Minutes, He Denies
Such Charge Is Legal.

by the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. September 30.-Clarence
Darrow stood up in court yesterday for
two public enemies" and got them out
on bond in five minuteS.
He termed the arrest of the EN-
emies"-CTeorge (Red) Barker and Will
liam CThree-Fingered jack White-as
outrageous"
"If the authorities wish to harass the
1awless." he said, they should do it
legally. There is no such charge in
law as public enemy"
Attacks Fixing of High Bond.
The vagrancy law, under which Bar
ker and White were arrested, provides
for release under 500 bond, Darrow
said. Yet men are being taken to
court, charged with vagrancy and made
90 furnish $4,000 bonds" he added
Darrow has been in retirement from
the law for two years. He said he
agreed to take the case of Barker and
White because he always had been close
to labor unions. Barker is business
agent for the Treasurer's Union It is
not affiliated with the American FEEDER
alton of Labor.
The surrender of White, a former
convict, and Barker, who also has
served a prison sentence, left 20 of the
IS public enemies" still unaccoulited
for. Vagrancy warrants have been
issued for all of them.
Druggan Action Continued.

not have as easy time of it as White
and Barker. While he lay in a hos

Said-an effort was made in court to
obtain his release on bond from the
Vagrancy charge. Circumstances in
connection with the scheduling of prop
erty to back the bond aroused the sl1s-
picions of Judge John H. Lyle, and the
entire matter was continued to permit
investigation.
=. Judge Lyle, who signed all the va
grancy warrants against the enemies"
and who has taken an active part in
the effort to bring Chicago gang lead
ers to justice, heard last night that
he had been marked for murder. A

Joined the subscribers to DR.. Louis K.

Brewster Warwick, Mrs. William Fitch
Kelly and Mrs. Charles Oman will
act as hoStesSes at the second of Dr.
Anspacher's lectures next Wednesday,
when the subject will be Julius Cae-
sar," which will give DR.. Anspacher the
opportunity to discuss the play in
which Shakespeare expressed his COM
pletest attitude to the great traditions
of ancient Rome, for this is the first
of the plays written in Shakespeare'S
splendid maturity when his genius was
in full control of his inspiration, and
when the subject matter of his play
was completely worthy Of his treatment.
DR.. Anspacher will show how Shakes
peares knowledge of Elizabethan poll
tics helped him to vitalize the political
| figures he found in Plutarch, and how
| in Julius Caesar" he also shows the
eternal political conflict between the
idealist and the practical man-in
Brutus and CaSsius.
| Following the lecture there will be
several luncheonS; including those to
be given by Mrs. Samuel Jordan Ora
ham, Mrs. Walter r. Tuckerman and
