No Money for the Lake.

The relief committee of the Commercial
Club told Mayor Denny yesterday after
noon that it did not feel warranted in using
$4,000 OF the money in it's possession on
Garfield Park, as suggested by Mr.. Kramer,
of the Board of Works, at a conference
several days ago. Mr.. Kramer wanted the
committee to use $4,000 Of the money in
employing men to build the dam and con-
struct the lake at the southern park The
committee has over $4,000 subscribed, but it
says that the money was to be used in
alleviating the distress in a manner contem-
plated by the establishment of the food
market. 1t does not believe it would be fair
to use so large part of the money in en-
ploying labor down at Garfield Park, which
would be almost inaccessible to working
men living in other parts of the city. The
committee, however, is willing to give the
city the benefit of the labor that the food
market furnishes. There were seventy-five
men sent to the street commissioner yester-
day to work out their Indebtedness to the

JUMPED FROM A TRAIN.
Convicted Burglars Desperate Effort
to Escape.

Edward Carroll, burglar under sentence
to three years i'm the northern prison, es-
capped from Deputy Sheriff Murphy, who
was escorting him to Michigan City on
Thursday. Carroll, under the pretext of
securing a drink Of water, made a bold
break and jumped from the train. The To-
cation OF the escape was at a point twelve
miles north of Frankfort. The prisoner
wore the chains and handouts, and the
train was stopped before he could regain
his feet. In falling he struck upon his
head and IL is probable that his skull was
fractured. Murphy took his prisoner on to
Michigan City and has not returned. 1t is
stated that the train was running at the
rate OF thirty miles an hour when Carroll
made the flying leap.

SOUNDS A LITTLE FISHY.
Who Ever Heard of an Actor Having
$50 at One Time?

F. Forrest Is an uncommonly spry little
man who does some very clever things with
DR.. Carver's Wild West show. on the stage
actor Forrest each afternoon does a street
turn in loud pair of pantaloons, a daz-
cling diamond and highly polished silk tile.
Yesterday afternoon the actor was out and
during his peregrinations met couple of
dashing young women who answered to the
names OF Minnie and "Kittie." The actor
was invited to call at No. los West Wash
ington street and was not ungallant enough
TO refuse. The girls prepared collation.

Of their guest. which consisted largely of
can OF beer. Whether or not IL was due
to the smile of minnie" and "Kittie' or to
the generous quantity of beverage to which
the actor did ample justice, he Is not quite
sure, but at any rate he was quickly lulled
90 a state OF languor that lasted until night
time. When Mr.. Forrest awoke he made
startling discovery and lost no time in
seeking the presence OF chief detective
Splann To that officer he made known
the fact that he had been robbed OF twenty
dollars He was morbidfy sensitive about
the loss being made public and so intense
were his fears In this direction that he
decided 10 drop the matter.

HE is AFTER BIG GAME
Deputy Prosecutor Cox Wants Full
ford's Friends Disciplined.
Efforts to Have Messrs. Taggart, Moores
and Healing Indicted-TO Be
Cited for Contempt.

An air of deepest mystery reigned about
the Office of the prosecuting attorney all
day yesterday, and there were mutterings
that something awful was going to drop in
TIE Fulford case. But the grand jury adj
journed in the afternoon and the terrible
sensation did not drop.
did they indict Taggart Moores and
Kealing?" asked a Journal reporter of
Prosecutor Hoffman after the adjourn
ment.
NO." replied the prosecutor, breathless-
ly. Were they expecting to be indicted?"
and he seemed vastly surprised that the
story should have gotten outside Of his
own office. He need not have been, be-
cause he gave the reporters for the after
noon papers tips early in the day to
look out for the indictment of these three
gentlemen for alleged interference with the
work of the grand jury. And they watched
assiduously, for the indictment of Thomas
Taggart, chairman Of the Democratic State
committee, and attorneys Of such high
standing as Merrill Moores, chairman Of
the Republican county committee, and ].
B. Healing, would have proven a big SEN
sation, no matter how flimsy the charge
1t is said that strenuous effort was made
by Deputy Prosecutor Cox yesterday morn
ing to have the three gentlemen named in
dicted upon evidence presented by the de-
tectives employed by the Long Distance
Telephone Company, that they had talked
with members of the grand jury. Members
of the grand jury, the ones having most
knowledge of whether or not any
influence had been brought to bear by the
attorneys and friends OF Fuford, could see
nothing in the case and declined to indict.
Upon this failure effort was made by
Mr.. Cox to get his brother the judge, to
cite the gentlemen for contempt of court
and the latest advices are that this will
be done at noon to-day.
The men most interested in the matter
regard it as amusing. They declare that
they have made no effort to control the
action of the grand jury, and their only
crime is belief in Fulfords innocence of
the charges brought against him by the
teleDhOne company

amounting to about $1,000, at the meeting in

the plan of giving out bread. Heretofore,
bread over a day old was sold at the mar

there was a big supply on hand, there

Imposing on the Food Market.

Through the aid of anonymous cor
respondence the investigating committee
from the food market yesterday succeeded
in exposing two South-sde families, whose
members have been imposing on the charity
of the public for several days. The male
members of one family are steadily en-
ployed, and in both cases the impostors own
the property in which they live. 1t was
learned that theater tickets have been no
uncommon luxury in one household. For
two days past the market has been impor
tuned by two three colored women for
food. The appearance of the applicants
failed TO bear out their assertions of pow
erty, and yesterday an investigation re-
vealed the fact that the women are of the
most disreputabe character.
There were many calls for coal yesterday.
In case will fuel be furnished families
without investigation. Manager Lane, of the
registration bureau, states that the work
test IS a success, and will go on. Persons
sent to the street commissioner who fail to
accept the work offered will be cut off from
supplies unless excellent excuse for their
nonappearance Is forthcoming. In case of
sickness physicians certificate will be re-

Relief Committee Will Set Aside No
Money for the Lake-ImpOsitiOns
Upon the Food Market.

Several members of the committee from
the unemployed called on the Mayor yester-
day afternoon and some of them talked in
a very unreasonable way. Mr.. ID. +. Ken
nedy was the first to appear. but as usual
he was conservative in his talk. He wanted
the city to do something to give the men
employment, as he thought the situation
was becoming serious. Those that came
after Mr.. Kennedy insisted that the Mayor
take steps TO borrow 100000 and to put
men to work on the street, even If there
was nothing for them TO do but to scrape
the dirt away and put it back again. The
Mayor told them that the city was power
less to borrow more money. One of the
men intimated to the Mayor that a feeling
of anarchy was growing. The Mayor told
the man he did not believe there was any
such feeling. He thought the honest UNI
employed workingmen were too fair and
reasonable to suppose that the city was
doing aught but the best it could to relieve
