ILLINOIS RACKET
TRIAL NEARS END
200 Witnesses Have Been
Paraded in 80 Days Of
Proceedings.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 20-The State
of Illinois has ended after 80 days of
testimony its parade of witnesses in
the racket conspiracy trial of DR..
Benjamin Squires, economist; Aaron
Sapiro, New York lawyer; Alderman
Oscar Nelson and Is others. More
than 200 witnesses have testified.
The States last important witness
was the 84-year-old Steve c. Sumner,
whose story of defying the "Capone
gang" splced yesterdays court ses-
sion.
Summers story dealt with the Milk
Drivers Union, a prosperous labor
group of which he was the head. Its
treasury held a million dollars which,
Sumner said, labor racketeers eyed
enViouSly.
Humphreys Made Bid.
Murray Humphreys, one of the aces
In the Capone gang deck, made
definite bid for control of the union,
Sumner testified.
Humphreys told me that the pro-
hibition racket would soon be over
and that his outfit wanted a place to
put its men. He said: The milk busi-
ness looks good to me-
He told me that his outfit owned
judges, Congressman. the police force
and the States attorneys Office. He
said that if any of his men got into
trouble in any part of the country, all
they had to do was to call him and
they would be out in two hours.
Il told Humphreys the milk deal
ers would never stand for him in the
union. and he replied: A few sticks
of dynamite will take care of that.
Humphreys said to me: You
are pretty decent old fellow, Steve,
and if you step out and let us in we
will pay you 100000
Now 1t Is Guns and Bombs.
II said that is not so bad; if I
take that and the million dollars in
the treasury I can get along pretty
we'll
Humphreys then said: oh, no.
We want the treasury. All you get is
one hundred thousand dollars in
cash
L told him nothing doing, and he
said: Steve, in your time it was
blackjackS and brass knuckles. Now
it is machine guns and bombs"
1t was Immediately after this con-
yersation, Sumner told the court, that
his union headquarters were armored
and bodyguards provided so that any
attempt at violence by the Capone
gang" could be checked.
Much of Summers testimony was
given during the absence of the jury,
the court having ruled that the testi-
mony was not pertinent to the case on
trial.
Al Capone. now serving time at
Atlanta Penitentiary, was among
those indicted in the racket con-
spiracy." but plans to bring him to
trial with the present group of de-

less We face and master the problems
of a mechanical age it may destroy
Western civilization as we know it,"
La Toilette gave a concise picture
of the hopes of what he termed the
Midwestern school of thought to
which he adheres. He spoke of prob
lens not in terms of production but
of consumption. I'VE need more gov
ernment, not less" he said. But we
must have better government. The
entire world is making efforts to Gre

He expressed the hope that the
United States would never find it
necessary to turn to Lenin, Mus
solini, or a Hitler to solve its prob
lens.
La Toilette said the country's over
expansion in agriculture and indus
try was a direct result of our entry
into the World War, and that the
problems which existed in 1919 are
present now. but are more aggravated
and dangerous.

Il can't" She spoke in low
voice but purpose threaded it. / have
job to do here yet"
Niles reached out and pushed the
door closed. To one side of the hall
portieres hung, completely concealing
the room that lay beyond. Now a
voice sounded from that room au-
thoritative, compelling.
"Who is there?"
Niles drew in his breath quickly and
his head lifted. Nerve and decisive
action were called for in this NOM
ent of suspense. He took pace or
so forward and flung the portieres
aside. He was in the front room of
the house, where wall globes cleaned
softly behind silgen shades and an
immensely high ceiling topped the
paneled walls. Across the chamber
in tapestried chair sat gray-hair-
ed man in a brocaded dressing gown
over evening clothes. In the subdued
light the lines that cut his cheeks
looked deeper than ever. He was
smoking cigaret in a long jade
holder. Niles recognized him. He had
seen him earlier that night at the
Club of Cards. The mans queerly-
channeled face remained utterly i'm
passive.
"Who are you and what do you
WANT" he asked.

Niles moved closer to the chair
and it's occupant. The eyes of Doc
tor Weston were coal-black with
strange little lights in them. He was
completely cool, poised and immacu-
late-a man with perfect control of
his emotions.
'I'm not here on professional
matter, Doctor" said Niles SOFTLY 1T

The die was cast. Niles sent his
glance about the room-empty save
for the three of them.

They were the very words that Ramos
had spoken in the Club of Cards
when Niles had refused to give up
the ace. "And yet it is better, per-
haps to take it from you"
"You tried to murder me in that
night club" Niles flung out the state

The doctor raised his hand. "My
