Prisoner Weary of Clcs
Confinement Plays Hou~
dini On Police
HELD FOR TRESPASS
Takes Out Pins Holding Cell Door
and Places Door Beside Cell and
Dashes to Freedom.
The Alexandria police several
days ago thought that they had
Houdini in custody.
It happened in this way. A col
ored man was arrested in the yards
of the Southern Railway Company
on a charge of trespassing several
nights ago.
His case was to liav& b?en Inves
tigated the next day. Nothing more
was thought about the prisoner.
An hour afterward however, the
officer on duty thought h? h ard
someone slip out. Sure enough upon
investigating he saw the fleeiing
form of a man and gave chase. The
fugitive,, however, ran like a deer
and soon outdistanced his pursuer.
When the policeman returned to
headquarters the delivery was dis
covered.
The big iron door of the cell had
been removed by the prisoner. The
prisoner accomplished this feat by
placing his arms through the nar
row iron grating. This done ha
deftly removed the pins holding the
door which acted as a hinge.
Then he walked out and1 placed the
door besido the cell, and again
walked to fredom.
Since then no trace of th? prison
erf-"has. been found.
This is the first time in the his
tory of the Alexandria police that
such a means has been used by a
prisoner to make his escape. That
the prisoner was a veteran at tin
business was the opinion exprersed'
by veteran members of the force.

WAR ON BOOTLEGGING
Attorney Urges Necessity of Taking
Possession of Liquor Which May be
Found in Pockets.
Fixirjg the alcoholic content of beer
at one-half of o.ne per cent, and strict
er enforcement legislation, which will
permit invasion of private homes ir
search of "speak-easies" will be ne
cessary for the success of the prohi
bition enforcement laws, Way no B.
Wheeler .attorney for t'he Anti-Saloon
League, yesterday told the prohibi
tion suA>-cpmmktee o5-t+r*?.mate Jjrfi
ciary Committee.
Mr. Wheeler made clear that v, ith
tha reformer's zeaJ he would crush
the eritire manufacture of beverages ;
except those of the law alcoholic con
tent approved by the Anti-Salocr
League.
The most drastic proposal made b;.
the dry chief was his demand for a
stricter search arid seizure provision;
wider powers under search warrant
weine advocated. Even the abolition
of warrants was advised'in order fo:
authorities to be freed of the neces
sity to present evidence in order 'Jtc'j
obtain a warrant to enter a manJs .
kome in search of liquor..... "J
Mr. Wheeler justified his claims on :
the grounds that such laws were r.o- ;
cessary to break up bootlegging,
which otherwise would exist exten
sively. Unless it is made easier to ye;
the warrant for a suspected speak
easy,'' Wheeler said, the bootleggers j
\Vculd be warned of the impending:
raids and would remove their supplies
of liquors.
Bitter contests between wets and
drys when the search work starts un- 1
tier the enfcrcmemt law was antici
pated by Mr. Wheeler,, when he asked ;
that the Senate consider the afcoli- j
tion df the penalty that is imposed by
the Volstead bill for making a search :
for liquor without probable cause. Un
less this is done he foresaw a seri
ous handicap l.o tracking down hidden
liquors. Wheie the sentiment ie
s'longly wet, persons obtaining war
runts and then bailing to find liquor
will receive a hibvy penalty. Mr.
Vvheeler feared.
To further block the bootleggers.
Wheeler urged the necessity for a law
| n:,iking the possession of a bottle of
, intoxicants in the pocket unlawful.
The storage of liquor in the homes
wouid also be made unlawful if Mr.
Wheeler's idea are carried out. This
v-ould not apply, he said, to the liq
uor- put in storage before July 1, but
he declared that under the law which
makes it legal to keep liquor in the
homes for private purposes, the beot
l-.^jjers will use their residences as
i storehouses.

DELIBERATE ACT
Prosecuting Attorney Ha
Surprise Evidence
Against New
WILL BE KEPT SECRE
;
Story of Slayer of Beautiful Frieda
Leaser in California Said to be
Reversed.
Los Angeles, July 17.?Evidence to
prove conclusively that the slaying
of beautiful Frieda Lesser by Harry
S. New, Jr., said to be a son of United,
States Senator Now of Indiana, at
Topango Canyon on' July 5, was a de
liberate act, has been discovered by
the district attorney's detectives.
This evidence wiHl be kept secret
until New goes to trial for the mur
der of his sweetheart, it was official
ly announced.
Deputy District Attorney Kayes af
firmed a report tha't the prosecution
has the "surprise evidence."
That an insanity plea may not be
entered for ITarry New is a strong
probability, the alternative being the
creation of doubt in the minds cf the
jurors as to responsibility for th
shooting of Frieda Lesser.
?While attorneys for New woukl r
tiiscuss any feature of the case, nor
indicate what the defense will be, ii
is understood there has been diffi
culty in finding alieni.-Ms of stand
ing that would declare the prisonei
insane.
One of the theories said to be un
der consic -ation is the following:
New, the vi'dtim of heredity, made
love to a girl as his father had done.
The girl, finding herself in the way
of becoming a mother, wanted th'.
father of the unborn child to marry
her, and he refused.
This reverses New's story. He said
it was he who wanted the marriage
ceremony, but that Miss Leader re
jected this suggestion.
She seized .the weapon,, according t:
this theory, and threatened to com
mit suicide, and in the struggle for
ppsses,sion_.of the weapon it was dis
charged, the bullet entering th? girlV
head.
If this-is'the theory selected :|?.:;is
assumed that ?enough doubt may;.fe
crcated -iTi-.the furors' min,:Ls ?o;vpre

ON TRIAL FOR LYNCHING
Louis - Bishop Charged With First
Dcgro? .Murder for Hanging
of Frank Fo/ukal.
Bayn?inette, Ala.. July 17.?Louis
Bishop, brother of the man who was
killed by Frank Foukal, and the sec
ond defendant to be tried on the
charge of murder in the first degree
for his part in the lynching of Fou
kal. was placcil on trial here yester
j day morning.
When his case is concluded an
i other of t'no murder cases will be
tried separately, and by that time
, court officials say they believe the
' defendants will be willing to have
the cases tr;ed in groups.
Bishop, like Andrews, who was
convicted Tuesday and sentenced to
ten years, entered- a plea of not
i guilty because of insanity. H2 is
charged with mirder in the first de
gree by having shot Frank Foukal to
death.
. The jury selected after much
I delay, due to the special venire be
' ing almost exhausted because of so
j many relations of the Bishop fam
1 ily being drawn as jurymen. Among*
i these drawn from the jury bcec was
; Wiley Bishop, a brother of the de
' fendant. who was of course excused.
