Chicago, October £4—Gangland’*
one-time over-lord. Scarface Al Ca-
pone, king of gangsters, was today
sentenced to eleven years in prison
and assessed a fine of $50,000 by Fed-
eral Judge Wilkerson, on charges of
evading payment of $215,000 income
tax. The sentence included- ten night .to _ peace officers whb had
years in the penitentiary and two jail Wiught hSr for ahiibst 100 hours.
e terms of a year each, the latter to run
concurrently. ' '* •
Capone's attorneys asked for a de-
lay in starting the sentence but Judge
Wilkerson declined.
The sentence, pronounced by Fed-
eral Judge James H. - Wilkerkon,
marked the culmination of the govern-
ment's desire to rid Chicago of gang-
sters by striking at their illicit stores
of wealth, derived from gambling, li-
quor and vice. Capone, the real ob-
jective of the two-year campaign that
sent the flower of the nation’s law en-
forcement into the underworld of Chi-
cago for evidence, was the seventh
gangster to be convicted or plead guil-
ty to evasion of income tax.
Capone’s term 'in prison, with time
off for good behavior, will be 8 years
1 month, and 20 days in the peniten-
tiary and 11 months in jail. He is
now 32 years of age.
It had been planned to take the
gangster to Leavenworth tonight, but
Judge Wilkerson ordered that he be
held in the Cook County jail

Longview, Texas, Otcober 24.—The
flimsy Gregg county jail today had
failed to hold nine more prisoners,
who sawed their way out through the
roof of the ‘‘bullpen’’.
' The latest jail delivery, occurring
sometime during Friday night or this
morning, brought to more than a
score the number who have escaped
from the county bastile.
Ten other prisoners, who could
have followed the fleeing nine, chose
to remain behind.
( The nine, all held on misdemeanor
charges, stripped away part of the
metal roof of the bull pen, made their .
way over a 12-foot’barbed wire fence,
easing their passage by placing blan-
kets on the prickly barbs.
