TORN PETTICOAT 15 SLAYING CLEW Chicago Police Think the Gang Held for Diamond Broker's Death Are Auto Bandits. CHICAGO. Dee. 21. -A woman's pei tleoat, with a torn flounce, promises to aid the police in the solution of the mysterious murder of Joseph H. Logue, diamond broker, who was mutilated and slain in his office yesterday after noon. Today, after arresting eight per sons, four men and four women, the j police found one of the most astound ing collections of loot and burglars’ tools ever discovered in any raid in Chicago. Among the tilings taken was a woman's skirt of materia! matching that which formed the gag in Logue's mouth. The police believe they can prove the gag was torn from this skirt. In the flat at 1436 Clifton avenue, in the Wilson-Evanston avenue, north side aristocratic district, in addition to the skirt, trunks and suit cases packed with plunder, burglars' tools and ex plosives. two skeletons were found. In all nearly a wagon load of plunder was taken to police headquarters. Nitroglycerin Found. Tn a basement store room just be low the flat the police moved cautious ly. Their caution was justified. In suit cases in the basement they discovered a quantity of nitroglycerin, and in the same suit cases where tiie slightest blow might have caused an explosion which would have torn the flat building off the face of the earth were careless ly sprinkled a quantity of fulminating caps. Scattered through the flat were beer and whisky bottles and the stubs of partially smoked cigarettes. In ope room, evidently occupied by a woman, was a trunk crammed with hastily stowed women's gowns. On the dress er were a number of opened boxes of cigarettes. Stubs of cigarettes strewed the floors and in the corners were empty bottles. On a bed in one room men’s clothing carefully laid out with burglars’ tools of the most approved pattern in the pockets, evidently ready tor instant use, were found. It is expected that the clothes may enable tin. police to help identify the men. Auto Figures in Find. An automobile also figured in the find. It was drh. • a uu to the flat while the police were there. Its driver, Charles Duffy, was arrested. It is be lieved by the police that their re markable discovery today will solve not only the murder of Logue, but will clear up the greater part of the automobile bandit cases that have mystified the police. The flat itself was in confusion. Un washed dishes were everywhere. They were stacked In closets and piled under beds and on chairs. Jewels, many of them unset, were found in queer hiding places. Drills, saws, dynamite fuses, jimmies, blackjacks and enough ammu nition to supply' a. small arsenal was discovered. Five automatic pistols were found in six suit cases that had been packed ready for removal. The finding of the skeletons puzzled the police. They were neatly stowej away in one of the closets in which hung a quantity of women's clothing. Part of tlie find was made at the Windsor-Clifton hotel, where li. P. Hampton and Mrs. Hampton were reg istered. Jewels torn from the cards on which they had been mounted were found there. The police are endeavor ing to find whether the cards are the same as those used by Logue in mount ing jewels. The cards were blood stained. Eight in Arrest. In addition to the four persons ar rested early today, tile police have since taken four other persons in custody. They are: Frank Williams, asserted by the po lice to be an ex-convict. He is a chauf feur. Charles Duffy, chauffeur of the car that drove up to the '‘Citadel” flat. A woman whose name has not been made public. She is said to be the sis ter of Jimmy Johnson, a convict now in Waupun prison in Wisconsin. Another woman whose name has not been made public, said to be a married woman who was occasionally at the Clifton avenue flat. The Hamptons, Stratton and one of the unnamed women were arrested in the loop district. Williams. Mrs. John son and the other unnamed woman were arrested at the flat. Duffy, the chauffeur, was arrested when he drove up with the automobile. A quantiy of new parcels delivery stamps, in sheets evidently as they had come from the bureau of engraving, were also found in tile flat. The stamps are said to aggregate $3,000 in value.

Little Hazel Lee Brown, or Garner, I might have slept peacefully lust night, i but ii is quite sure that her father. | fostel-father, foster-mother and aunt | and several attorneys had troubled I slumbers. It was over the little girl, not yet three years old. that a legal battle un precedented in Georgia was waged yes. terday in Justice J. b. Ridley s court. Her father, Henry R. Brown, caused all the exciting court scenes by bring ing suit foi the recovery of his child from John T. Brown, by whom the child was adopted less than two years ago from tiie Home for tlie Friendless, to which Brown had given his child at the death of his wife. After a wrangle in the court, which lasted several hours. Judge Ridley dis missed the case, leaving the child in possession of Garner. During the wran gle and immediately following it also, more than once testimony was heard on both sides which came near resulting in a personal difficulty between attor neys and witnesses. Gave Child to Orphanage. The bitter feeling continued after the case was dismissed, and another per sonal difficulty barely was averted be fore witnesses had left the court build ing. It developed during the testimony that Brown gave his little girl to the Home for the Friendless upon the death of his wife because' lie had not ade quate means for earing for her. Soon afterward Mrs. Garner, a sister of Brown, adopted tlie child under legal procedure from tlie Home for tlie Friendless. In the meantime Brown marired again. He said he had heard his child I was being mistreated by Garner, so he instituted suit for her legal posses sion. On the witness stand Garner de clared that he was fond of the child and had not mistreated her. Mrs. Garner sided with her brother. I and testified against her husband. | whom she said had once administered | punishment to the little girl when she was ill, and as a result of which marks and bruises were left on the little body for several weeks. Garner’s own eight-year-old son also testified against his father. The boy said he had been replaced in the af fections of his father bv the adopted child. Threatens To Whip Spectator. Mrs. Garner declared in tlie court room that she would leave her husband but for the welfare of her own little boy. During tlie hearing of this testimony, Artninius Wright, an attorney for Gar ner, arose, and pointing to Joseph Brown, a brother of Henry R. Brown, said: ‘‘lf‘that fellow does not stop leering at me I will whip him, if the court will permit.” The offending Brown was admonish ed by tile judge, and was told lie woul 1 be fined unless he remain quiet and unoffensive. As soon as Judge Ridley dismissed the case on tlie ground tiiat there was ■ net sufficient evidence that Garner had mistreated the little girl. Joe Brown and Garner passed bitter words just outside the court room, and a light was averted by the interference of other w itnesses. Brown said lie was not through w itli his tight to reg in the child. You will find that druggists every where speak well of Chamberlain’s Coupli Remedy.
