Alphonse Capone. whom the gov- ernment charges with evasion of in- come taxes, had plenty of money, they said. He paid his bills promptly and always in cash. Telephone bills, meat bills, hotel bills and bills for labor were read into the records ,and identified by trades people and business men, most. of them from Miami, Florida, where Capone owns a $40,000 estate. Still Owes One Man Just one, H. F. Ryder, who built a dock and a boat house on the Flor- ida estate, said he figured that “Mr. Al” still owed him some money. “I think Al is a fine man, though,”! he said with a smile in the direction of the defendant. “I know he'll pay me my $125.00.” The government previously had read into the records some $80,000 worth of telegraphic money orders which passed in 1928 and 1929 be- tween Chicago and Miami. The gang chief's relationship to most of them was that of ultimate recipient, the prosecution charged. Government evidence purported to show that Capone, while living in Florida, received under various names sums ranging from $300 to $5,000. bstrac- Error Detected in Philadelphia (AL) AB Haas, cf .
