Business genius of the gang that was wrapping its tentacles around the profits of bootleg liquor, cleaning and dyeing, linen supplies, laundries, teamsters unions and bottled beverage trades in the latter days of Al-phonse Capone, Humphreys came home after 16 months in hiding and took what he knew was coming.

Woodward and immediately entered a plea of guilty to the indictment returned in June, 1933. charging that he tried to evade $23,190 taxes on an income totaling $169,561 for the three years ended in 1932.
