CHICAGO, May 3 U.N.SO.
Convinced that John Dillinger
and his gang of outlaws are in
hiding here, Federal authorities
today concentrated their man
hunt on the North Side, where a
blood-stained automobile was
found abandoned by the gang
SterS.
Approximately so Federal op-
eratives were summoned from
throughout the Chicago district
by Melvin H. Purvis, chief of the
Department of Justice bureau of
investigation here, to join the
hunt.
Augmenting the Federal raid
ers were the 40 picked police
markSmen organized by Capt.
John Siege as the "Dillinger de-
tail"
The special detail was ordered
to search IS gangland hideouts
in an effort to pick up the lost
trail of the desperadoeS.
Police and Federal inveStiga-
tors were convinced after study
ing the abandoned automobile
that Dillinger and some of his
men fled here the night of April
%, just "a hours after they had
escaped from a Federal trap at
the Little Bohemia resort near
Mercer, Wis.
The car was the one taken from

increased after June /, according
to the terms Yale is said to have
laid down, to sliding scale OF
3 cents for every 300-pound cake
of ice sold by members Of the
organization.
Dealers Are Afraid
Mr.. Golden said today that it is
apparent that some Of the wit
nesses have been warned not to
talk to the authorities regarding
the enforced arrangements with
Yale. Two dealers, most vehe-
ment in their complaints, yeSter-
day told the prosecutor that they
felt it was not to their best in
terest to make formal charges.
Others, however, expressed de-
termination to go through with
their fight against Yale and will
be interrogated in the District At
torney's Long Island City office
Friday.
Personally directing the in
vestigation, Mr.. Golden, accom-
panied by a squad of detectives,
went to Rockaway Tuesday night
when the dealers were to meet
Yale at the Italian-American
Democratic Club.
Conference on Sidewalk
The prosecutor said that Yale
appeared but did not go into
the meeting room, holding his
conference with members on the
sidewalk outside the building.
The meeting was heated, accord
ing to reports given to the prose-
cutor by detectives, several of
the members demanding that
payment to Yale be discontinued
One of the officers of the ice
dealers group, a manufacturer
who sells directly to members OF
the retail organization, controls
three companies selling ice both
wholesale and retail throughout
the Rockaway territory. Police
say that he has been seen sew
eral times with Yale. Mr.. Col
den said:
"We have information that
Yale promised the ice dealers
that he would bring about an
increase of 10 cents q cake,
which would more than make up
for his fee Of cents q cake.
The local dealers are getting
65 cents per 300 pounds now
and with Yale's help the price
is to 60 to IS cents. We have
checked up and have found that
dealers in other parts of the
borough are getting only As
cents for the same amount of
cake ice."
: YALE ARRESTED IN 1892
Yale has been involved in ex-
tortion charges before, Golden
pointed out. In 1882 he was ar
rested on the charge that he at
tempted to eXtort $1,000 from Alb
raham Brooks, a Coney Island
ice cream manufacturer, but was
discharged when the complaint
was not pressed.
New York city consumes more
than 10000 tons of cake ice a day
during the summer months, Mr..
Golden said, following a confer
ence with Deputy Market Com
missioner Fiachetti. At the rate
of cents per 300-pound cake,
the kick-back to the racketeers
should approximate $4,000 a day,
he pointed out, explaining that
collection percentage taken by the
racketeers varies in the different
boroughs, but averages 5 cents a
cake throughout the city.

PERFUME IMPORTS
i HINT PROSPERITY
May Increase 73 Per Cent Over
Same Month Last Year,
Federal Figures Show.

An indication OF returning pros
perity to the United States is seen by
C. C. Concannon, chief of the Com
merce Departments chemical divi-
sion. in the increased imports of per-
fumes and flavoring material during
the first five months of this year, as
scompared with figures for the cor
responding period in 1888.
Through May of this year such i'm
ports increased 73 per cent over the
figures of 1888. Imports of materials
Increased 100 per cent over last year.
The combined value of all such i'm
ports. including both the finished
products and raw materials, was
placed at 81, l,797, 200 for 1884, against
81 Gal 900 last year. In addition to
this. synthetic perfumes and f1avoring
materials we're valued at $23,286 the
first five months this year.
Perfumes and f1avors, Concannon
pointed out, have wide application
in industry. In addition to their use
in the manufacture of cosmetics, toi-
let preparations, medicines, confec-
tions and soaps, additional uses have
been found for them in such COM
modities as ladies' wear, ceramics and
notions, merely to add to their sales
appeal.
A new use recently developed, ac-
cording to Concannon, is to make
public conveyances more agreeable to
sensitive patrons.
