THRILLING JOURNEY IN PRISON
MOTOR
BY CABLES —PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT
Received Sent. 13, 10.5 a.m NEW YORK, Sent, 11. If Leopold and Loeh, who arrived- at Illinois State penitentiary in Joliet- tonight to begin serving their life sentences, did not secure the desired thrill when they killed the youth Franks, they received it- to-night.' While being conveyed to prison, the automobile in which they were travelling swerved abruptly and took a- dive into the ballasted tracks of an electric railway. It righted itself and bounced 50 yards down the track before it stopped.' The hoys were unhurt, though badly jarred. When he entered prison Loeh remarked : “This is no.t such a, bad place.”—Reuter.
