The pea crop on the Eastern

in many places have plowed

4BABY-FACED' MAN
HELD IN ROBBERY
Chicago Police Doubt Sus-
pect Is One Who Held Up
Mayors Wife.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October ga "baby-
faced man-Samuel Battaglia, IS years
old--was held today as a suspect in the
$4,000 jewel robbery of Mrs. William
Hale Thompson, wife of the mayor,
but there was considerable doubt about
his being the right one.
Battaglia, a minor hoodlum and
racketeer, had been arrested as he
walked out of Judge Lyle's court, freed
of charge of assault. Peter OMalley,
the policeman-chauffeur who was held
at bay by one bandit while three others
took Mrs. Thompson's jewels Monday
night, was unable to make positive
identification of Battaglia.
Not Positive of Opinion.
Early today he denied earlier reports
that he had done so.
HE looks like one of the robbers s.
he said. st am almost sure of it. But
will not say positively he is the man. y
Battaglia was taken late last night
TO the Gold Coast apartment home OF
the mayor. Later he was returned to
the Detective Bureau and subjected to
further questioning by Police Commits
sioner John Alcock. The commissioner
declined to say whether Mrs. Thompson
had been able to identify him.
Second Man Held.
Battaglia and William Carr, who was
arrested with him, were reported as
having been seen lettering in the neigh
borhood of the mayors home shortly
before the robbery.
Commissioner Alcock said that even
II Battaglia were guilty, there was little
chance of his confessing. He isn't the
confessing kind" the commissioner said.
None of the stolen jewelry has been
found.
