JRUE BILLS NAME =28 PROMINENT MEN In Chicago Slot Machine Racket £ Chicago, May 1 UP—With six po- #ice captains, several prominent poli- Jicians and others—28 in all—report- ed pamed in true bills by the Cook county grand jury, State's Attorney John A. Swanson, and his aids to- day hinted at further sensational dis- elosures concerning a syndicate ‘which is said to have netted $25,040 Aailly through the operation of slot wmachines. The true bills were expected to be returned today in the form of a conspiracy indictment. - Among those reported named by ‘the grand jury were: Police Captains Patrick J. Collins, brother of the late Michael Collins. minister of defense and finance, of the Irish Free State, who was as- sassinated; Dennis Malloy, once dis- ¢harged from the police department, but reinstated; Richard Gill; Michael Tobin; Hugh McCarthy, and Michael Delaney. Dr. William M. Reid, former city smoke inspector and prominent msouth side politician whose honie was bombed twice. Frank J. Beran, custodian of the police department. Bergeant Robert Sullivan, Edward “Spike” 0'Donnell, reput- ed beer runner, racketeer, and gangster. i Arthur E. Dyer, republican ward committeeman. ° William Bogenhagen, republi ward committeeman and se ary %o Willlam Balmer, commissioner of public service. Irobe Follows Death . The slot machine crusade grew out of an investigation into the death of Mrs. Selma Burnham, wealthy ‘widow of the head of the Burnham Vending Machine company. The cémpany’s records were searched for possible clues to her death. They furnished none, but did give the au- thorities an inkling of the vast op- crations of the slot machine syndi- cate. A special squad of detectives was Belected by Swanson to assist him in the investigation. Four men arrested early furnished information which is said to hae vesulted in disclosures involving the police officials, politicians and others, May Solve Bombings Another result expected from the slot machine investigation is the possible solution of the bombings of | the homes of Dr. Reid and Charlvs C. Fitzmoris, former chief of polic» and city comptrollcr, early last y # r. After the 1cported voting of true bills yesterday, the state's at- torney refused to say what his n>xt step would be, although he hinted strongly that other true bills and indictments, probably naming other police officials, politicians and rack- eteers, would be returned in the near future. Think Fortuncs Made An idea of the vast fortune won by the alleged gambling syndicute was given to the grand jury, it wus #mid. in evidence indicating that g r- fag a period of four and one-half months between $350,000 and $400.- 600 were paid to James N. “High Pockets” O'Brien. one of those re- ported nameq in the true bills, by two slot machine operators for pro- tection. ” O'Brien was named as the “zo- between™ for the gamblers and poii ficians and police officials.
