NEW FARM DEAL AT LIBERTYVILLE A N T | 0O C H 'TWAS A FRAME-- UP AGAINST THE DAILY SUN said, "All that Jeske and McQueeny (for whom Jeske works) have proved in this case seems to be that Jeske was drunk when he wes in Aurora trying to collect"evidence against the blind pigs*" And then Mr. Welich who had previ-- ously declared that he was of the be-- lief that either McQueeny or Jeske had framed the case against the Sun declared with a great outburst; -- "If McQueeny. is as careless in getting evidence in the Lake County cases as he and Jeske proved they had been with the facts in the case now on trial, he is a dangerous man. And it residents of Lake County are finding themselves confronted by men of his kind, God help Lake County. Things have come to a pretty pass here and this case proves tha't is a fact. Therefore, this case, disagree able to those who acted as defendants may be a mighty good thing for Lake County because it has disclosed the methods followed by this McQueeny Agency; it has shown their disregard for the facts etc., in collecting evi-- dence. It has been proved and not denied by the plaintiffs themselves that Jeske, the chief investigator, was picked up on the streets of Aurore Arvnk and thrown into jail where he ~as kept at least two days and then «~as released only because the Police penartment had found that he had been rrought to Aurora by the Cgr-- poration Counsel in the bopes of run-- ning down some bootleggers whom the police up to that time had not been able to get the evidence against. "And with res'dents of Lake Coun-- ty being susceptible "to the activities of such men who are so entirely unte-- Hable in the gathering of facts it creates a dangerous situation here and even arouses suspicion as to the evidence presented by this same agency against men who are already serving prison sentences on the strengtb of their evidence." CONSPIRACY VERY EVIDENT Continuing, Mr. Weich said, "The evidepce in this case has shown that Jeske with McQueeny or somebody else conspired very cleverly to lay the foundation which would give them a basis to start this damage action and it is most reasonable to see how they could bting it about _ . sNUDY ENTRAPMENT ALL LIFE "If they have carried out the same line of entrapment aginst & lot of de-- fendants whom they have testified against in this court in the matters of liquor violations etc.. the question is' has justice been done to these Lake County residents? This was a conspiracy pure and simple carried out only in a manner which men edu-- cated in that line of thought and ac-- tivity could bring about. I would not know how to set about to formulate a frameup of this sort. YOU would not know how to do it. The average man would not know 'how to do it. The only persons who wuld thkink of it and who could so cleverly carty it through are men of the type of Jeske and McQueeny." . ALL DETAILS WELL PLANNED Mr. Welch went on in his argu-- ment in proof of the contention that a frame--up had been planned by point-- Ing out that the articles in question which were considered libelous were "McQueeny admits he has been in the detective business for 15 years and Jeske for 6 years. Their whole lives have been given to the art of detecting. They have studied how to bring about entrapments, they have studied how they can cleverly go out and trap a man into giving or selling them booze or being enticed by them into compromising 'positions in case they are collécting evidence in a di-- vorce case. They have used their .wits in entrapment practice and they executed in very clever shape when they tried to put over the frameup which has been proved was the case in the local damage action, priot to the filing of their bill. PHONE 306 S NO W'S _"By spending their lives in trying to learn how to best entrap people is it any wonder that the local newspa-- per when framed on as was the case in the publication of the article in question, was the victim? I do. not hesitate to say right now that it is my firm belief that Jeske aided by McQueeny or somebody else planned the whole thing. WHAT ABouT OThHEeR victims?: "Did you see McQueeny and Jeske on the stand? I want everyone of you jurymen to remember that not once during the whole téstimony of both men did they look the jury in the eye-- They were always looking away.

He argued that it this careful plan had not been made is the shape of a frameup it would not have been possible for the -- suit to heave been filed on the 18th,. This was especially true he said in view of the fact that Jeske testified he never saw the article of December 12%th until the evening of the 14th. Therefore, Mr. Weich pointed out, between the night of the 14th' and 18th he had consulited and hired an attorney who prepared a bill for court action that waus filed on the 18th, there being a, Sunday in between the l4th and the 18th," that left his three days to prepare a case of great magnitude which Mr. Welch contend-- ed was a physical imposeibility. This, he argued beyond all doubt proved that the frameup had taken place and that the attorney was given am-- ple time to prepare his case, far more time than would be available between the night of the 14th and the 18th when the bill actually was filed. WHAT WAS DAMAGE: '1 ue only defense offered by Jeske's attorney to the testimony of Chief Michels of Aurora that Jeske was picked up in Aurora in a drunken con-- dition 'and put'into jail, was that Jeske if he was in that condition, got his booze in Aurora. <~His council en-- deavored to show that because the bootleggers in Aurors had not been run in by the police department that that was an excuse for Jeske to get drunk in his efforts to procure wet evidence. Jeske's counsel endeavored to in-- ject States Attorney Smith into the case but it was noijicseable that the complainants did not calH the States Attorney to the stand as a witness in their behalf. Neither did they call other witnesses before the jury whom they claimed had heard certain con-- versations that if proved would have borne argument to their contention. Attorney Welch in closing declarea that the only damage which Jeske had claimed had been done to his character was the fact that when he came home to his wife at 4 o'clock in the morning after having trailed a Mrs. Duddles of North Chicago for several days, on evenings in or about Waukegan and North Chicago, hig wife asked him where he had been, what woman he had been out with. But, argued Mr. Welich a man en-- gaged in the business of trailing and trapping men or women involved in divorce, cases or looking up bootleg-- ging matters really bhas a right to be out until 4 o'clock in the morning. However, any wife also has a real reason for asking him where he has been, if out so late, concluded the At-- torney. whnien make the Super--S5i1 the most enduring, M ubuot'hutmototandp:he it all advantages sought ° mt cylinders, prevent any from copying its as has been so genenfiy done in copying the Coach body. * f ESSEX HOLDS ITS OWN EVERYWHERE Its Greatest Values Cannot Be Copied ESSEX --6--COACH $895 CHAS.
