CAPONE ORDERS
KIDNAPERS TO
FREE GAMBLER
Sends Word to Boys to
Release Man Held
for Ransom.

By CHtfed PfesS
CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-Alphonse
Capone, known over the world as
"Scarface AL" temporarily was
aligned today with the forces of law
and order, seeking to retrieve John
J. (Jack) Lynch, wealthy turf figure,
from kidnapers.
The gangsters who held Lynch
threatened to murder him unless
$250,000 ransom was paid. Lynch'S
friends, protesting to be unable to
raise the sum, appealed to Capone.
I've sent out word to the boys
that I want Lynch released at once
and unframed" the 'portly gang
lord said. 1T he isn't-well-
humph.'
The way Capone's lips Strengthened
as he spoke the last was taken to
presage sudden vengeance on the
gang that kidnapped Lynch. The
victim was the controlling figure in
the General News Bureau, which
collects rich earnings through ma
tion-wide distribution of horse race
results, entries, ETC., for turf publica-
lions.
While Capone announced that he
was doing all in his power to save
Lynch, who was threatened with
death by the kidnapers after they
had spurned an offer of $4,000 ran
som, police declined to view Scar
face Al" as convert to law and
order.

route home from the state legion
convention in Anderson Tuesday

treated at the fort.
King, when arrested, said fellow
Legionnaires in other cars who saw
the accident told him to go on
home and they would take care of
the affair and report to state police.
A truck parked without a tail
light was held responsible for an
accident in the HOO block Holiday
street Tuesday night, and Ray
Drantlanger, 1850 Holiday street,
driver of the truck, was charged
with failure to leave the light
showing.

Friends of Lynch, who was seized
Thursday while en- route from Chi
cago to his $125,00O home at Lake
Geneva, Wis, declared that he was
not gambler, that his news bureau
did legitimate business.
They characterized the kidnapers
as cunning and desperate men play
ing for stakes far bigger than the
$250000 demanded as ransom. The
associates of Lynch said they be-
lieved the gang was trying to wrest
control of the General News Blu
reau, which has yearly profit of
$250000 or more.
