POLICE KEEP HANDS OFF OF
ELLEN GATES STARR
Miss Ellen Gates Starr, investigat
ing strike conditions, was standing in
front of Lamm's Peoria and Jackson
blvd.
Police are afraid to arrest her, for
they dare not Miss Starr's connec
tions are too high. But they try to

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP AND
YOU WONT HAVE TO CREEP
Biff! The Chicago Tribune today
slapped itself in the face again. But
it's better to slap one's face than to
pay a libel suit
The Trib binged its own cheek yes
terday when it explained with fancy
rhetoric that one of its want ads re
sulted in Stephen Gorecki, 1121 Noble
st, being swindled out of $5,000.
Hand it to the W. G. N., though its
clever writers almost succeeded in
making it appear that the Trib was
doing a favor in letting Gorecki be
swindled through its columns.
Today the Trib admitted that Dr.
Otto C. Schlack was not in the city
at all when the news was published
that Dr. Schlack had fled because his
name was tied up in 'an abortion
death.
After the death of Anna Marie
Dimford, Rhodes Av. hospital, Dr.
Schlack's name was mentioned in
connection with the operation. Dr.
Schlack arrived in total yesterday
from Oklahoma. He produced a sheaf
of affidavits to show that he has not
been in Chicago since May 4, long
before the Dimford girl was operated
upon. All of that time he has been
traveling as head physician of a cir
cus. Admission that Dr. Schlack was out
of town when the abortion was per
formed and the story involving him
were in the Trib today, cleverly writ
ten, too.

YOU CANT GET AWAY WITH IT
Loop hotels that cater to high
toned trade may have to abandon the
idea that they can get away with
stuff that is not allowed by the police
in less pretentious places.
Franci Del Babbio, clerk New Mor
rison, and Alma Davisr clerk Victoria
hotel, were arrested for running jew
elry lotteries.
