But while police suspicion mediately was directed Cicero for an explanation of the latest a killings, there was no direct evidence and Chief Morgan Collins said it was @ waste of time to arrest Capone. Capone Has an Alibi he asserted. “He was in Cicero when the shooting occurred. If we bring in, it will be because we have the goods on him cold, but there no use putting him on the grill ui tit_we do.” The chief declared it is his opin- ee that the killers of Weiss and Paddy Murray were imported, prob-) ably from New York, Capone, who has taken the name of Brown, gave his version of the gung feuds in a small hotel room, which he suid had been his home, office and shelter for 14 months. It contained only a bed, dresser and three chairs. Capone is’reported to have made more than two million dollars in the Looze game. Wants Them to Talk Sense Holding a photograph of his sev- en-year-old boy in his hand and speaking of his love of the youngster and his relatives, Capone declared he had “begged those fellows to put away their pistols and talk sense to me. They've all got families too.
