Confession of Firebug
is Confirmed by the
State's Attorney1
CHICAGO, March 12. The statement of
John Danles, alleged to have been chlur
of the so-called arson trust, had made a
confession was confirmed today by First
Assistant State's Attorney Fran John
ston. Danles, according to Johnston, named
forty members of the arson ring, Includ
ing the names of several men "higher
up." Danles admitted tjiat ho had Bet
more than twenty fires In Chicago. The
confession Is said to be even more start
ling than that recently made by Benja
min Fink, who confessed complicity in
100 incendiary fires. 'An aggregate of
$500,000 In Insurance was collected from
tho Danles fires, according to Johnston,
who said that at least forty warrants tor
business men, public fire Insurance ad
justers and actual Incendiaries named
by Danles would be Issued.
"The ramifications of the 'trust' as de
scribed by Danles are almost beyond be
lief," said Johnston. "The gang seemed
to have worked In almost every state In
the middle west. Arson was a businocs
with them, and It was highly organised
on a scientific basis. Danles and Finn
were the chiefs of the firebugs, althougn
they did not belong to the same gang.
Both men say they don't know each other
except by reputation."
Danles said that on several occasions
persons for whom he had set tlrca de
frauded him out of his share of the In
surance money.
