The Peace Treaty
The item remarks that "Scareface" Capone and his rivals have signed a peace treaty, as if the law had no concern with their conduct and as if Chicago could have peace only by their own agreement. It adds that the underworld of Canton has organized to liberate prisoners held in connection with the murder of Don r. Mellett, and that a break for liberty by desperadoes confined in the tombs startled New York, with 200 detectives and policemen shooting it down and three dead and three wounded.
A comment on a truce signed by Capone and his rivals, and on other crimes reported elsewhere.

The underworld of Canton organizes to liberate prisoners who are held in connection with the murder of Don R. Mellett.
A break for liberty by desperadoes confined in the tombs startles New York, with 200 detectives and policemen shooting it down and with three dead and three wounded to prove the grimness of the affray.
