Louis Gottlieb, a Hungarian lawyer of Chicago who disappeared in October, taking with him five hundred thousand dollars of his clients' money, was arrested in London.

According to Robert C. Hardy, a lawyer, Gottlieb wrote a letter to the secretary of a London insurance company in which he asked for a three-hundred-dollar loan and also mentioned his arrest. Whether Gottlieb gave himself up voluntarily or the police found him through his correspondence with his creditors in Chicago, has not been verified.
