COMPANY EXPOSED
Sweat Shop Workers Induc-

Over Seven Hundred Worthless Lots
Sold to Poor Peddlars and Lab

Lake county has again become the
scene OF a disgraceful real estate
scandal.
Several hustlers from Chicago
the same gang who some ten or
twelve years ago swindled the nm
wary by selling lots at New Chicago
between Liverpool and Lake Station
have opened part of section 10 of
Hobart township, south of the little
Calumet and opposite their former
locality. The land is absolutely
worthless, barren sand and slouqbs
and borders on cemetery although

tell their dupes that a large factory
is about to locate there. Contrary
to their stories there are no railroads
there and on railroad nor probable
electric connections. Six hundred
lots at $50 each have been sold there
already and yesterday nearly two
hundred sweatshop workers and
cheap pack peddlers were brought
out free Of charge on the TT. Wavoe
and shown nearby property. One
hundred and fifteen of them bought
lots.
Although the prospectors say the
site is near Gary, the truth is. it is
only accessible to the steel town after

tailed account Of this sudden land
boom will appear in these columns

SLEUTHS Baked
BY HIGHWAYMEN
Police in Civilian Attire
Stalk Holdup Men East
of Town.
FIFTEEN SHOTS EXCHANGED
Elsner and Einsley Have Running
Fire of Shots With Foot Pads
Hidden in Bushes.

Local Sherlocks had an exciting
time with two holdup men on 150th
street between the distillery and
East Chicago on Saturday night and
although fifteen shots were exchang-
ed, they were unable to bag their
game.
The road between Hammond and
East Chicago is an ideal place for
the operations of "stick-up men" and
they have not been slow to realize
it. On several Saturday nights af-
ter the cars stopped running, resi-
dents of East Chicago who were COM
PEELED to walk home, have been held
up and robbed
These holdups have not been made
public in the hope that the police
could trap the thieves and arrest
them. Last Saturday night Officers
Elsner and Einsley, dressed in work
ingmen's clothes started to hoof it
to East Chicago after the last car
had left They had not gone far
when one of the officers noticed a
man crouching in the brush beside
the road. The officers were allowed
to pass and the holdup men took the
bait beautifully and quietly stole out
of the bushes with guns in hand, ex-
peeting to steal up behind their vic
tins and accomplish their purpose.
The officers saw what was doing
through the corner of their eyes and
quickly turned and fred on the
crouching men. The robbers replied
with three shots and then hastily
fed into the nearby thicket. Both
Of the policemen emptied their re-
volvers at the disappearing men but
they We're evidently not in medal
winning form and is it not believed
they scored a hit.
The "stickups" were followed into
the brush until one of the officers
became entangled in some wire fenc-
ing and then it was decided to give
up the chase.

in recent target practice, but the two
arms of the law are not worrying a

FUTURE GAMES FOR HAMMOND

Interest in baseball is in the as

for the future. Next Sunday the
locals play the fast team from Chi

from the Freeland team by the score
of to l. On August &c, Hammond
and Whiting play the second game of
their championship series and al
though this game is two weeks away
there has been several hundred dol
lars bet on the result. On Labor Day
and the Sunday preceding, the Royal
Tigers Of Bremen and Napenee will
come to Hammond to give two more
thrilling exhibitions of the national
game. The word fan" may be
applied to most anyone you meet
these days and he will plead guilty
on the spot Millikan says he gets
so many phone calls from this and
that person who wants to know about
the games that it keeps a man busy

Crown Point was visited by a bur

He tried four houses, but gained en-

he took $17.55 and overlooked a book
containing $10O.

AffdaYits Filed Against All

WARRANTS ALREADY ISSUED
Grown Point Man Plays Detective
and Secures Evidence Against
Saloon Men.

Cedar, Lake, Aug. 13.-Word was
quietly passed around here this
morning that thirty afidavits had
been filed and nearly as many more
were being prepared for various sa-
loon keepers here
A man from Crown Point named
Hans Englert has been quietly col
lecting evidence around the lake for
some time and this morning filed the
affidavits before Judge Barton at
Grown Point. Warrants have al
ready been issued and it is expected
that three eonstables with several
deputies Will make a big raid here
this afternoon when the warrants
will be served.
The principal charges in the afTi-
davits are keeping slot machines and
selling liquor without a county Ii
eense. 1t is rumored that all but
two of the hotels and resorts around
the lake are included in the list.
The Thisthewaite hotel has five or
six counts in the affidavit against it.
Among the. we'll known places that
will be raided are these: Charles
Sigler. Charles Ganette, Louis Krause.
Bowers resort, Thistlewaite Hotel
Annie Rooney, Larsen's pavilion.
Frank Bough.
So1,,n of tho q 5ov;t- ....L -
for Charles Sigler is simply for keep

OF the disreputables which have put
Cedar Lake in such a bad reputation
have several counts against them.
Prosecution will be made in the
justice at Crown Point: although
Hans Englert who is the prosecuting
witness says that in case he fails to
convict in this court, all the cases
viii be appealed to the circuit court
Of Lake county.
It has been learned here that Eng
lert has been working for weeks to
secure his evidence and while it was
tipped OF here early this morning
that there would be a raid. the keen
ers Of the various places around the
lake are making no preparations for
the officers. The next twenty-four
hours bids fair to be the most excit-
ing in the history of the summer re-
sort.

BROWNS At LAKE FRONT
IN SIGHT Of FRIENDS
Roy Hepner Carried by Undertow Out Into Lake Mich
gan--Poice Search in Vain for Body.-Drowning
at East Chicago.

0He of the most pathetic, drownings
that have occurred in the vicinity oil
Hammond occurred at Lake Front
park last Saturday evening at $3.50
when Roy Hepner, the 17-year-old
son of e. Hepner who lives at 324
Walter street was taken with cramps
while in bathing and. although be
was only in water up to his waist,
was carried out into the lake by the
deadly undertow and has not been
seen since.
Hepner and two of his friends went
in bathing together and were having
a fine time battling with the big
breakers that were washing in from
the north when it was noticed that
young Hepner had worked his was
considerably farther out than the
other boys dared to go.
The water was not so deep where
he was standing but the waves were
so high that the undertow was of un-
usual swiftness and it was this that
made the bathing place dangerous.
There were dozens of people on the
beach watching the antics of the
boys. when one of them noticed that
Hepner was whirling around with
his face downward in the water and
apparently in a helpless condition.
An effort was made to attract the
attention Of his comrades to Hepner

loud that they did not hear until
the body had been washed bevond
their reach.
Word was then sent ]. II. Kas-
per and John Schneider, who imme-
diately launched boat and tried tn
reach the drowning boy. The boat
did not last five miutes in the heavy
sea that was rolling and the break
ers soon filled it with water and II
sank. Both Mr. Kaspar and Mr.
Schneider We're soaked to the skin
in their efforts to reach shore.
Another futile attempt at rescue
was made by one Of the bystanders
but his boat met with the same fate
as the first one. and it could be seen
that 1t would be useless to continue
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1906-08-13

the effort to recover the body.
The search for the body was aban-
doned until Sunday when an effort
was made to drag the lake. Even
then the waves were too heavy and
the efforts were unavailing.
BY Monday morning the lake had
calmed sufficiently to enable a search
to be made for the boy with some
prospect of success. Officers Bunde.
Horlbeck, Holman and Berge togeth-
er with Joe Kaspar secured 500 feet
OF seine and spent the morning drag
ging for the body, but without re-
suits.
This is the first drowning that has
taken place in the vicinity of the
lake front for four years, which fact
is remarkable considering the great
number of people which frequent this
place and battle there.
One of the sad features of the af-
fair is the fact that, had there been
some one on the lookout whose busi-
ness it would be to effect the resuce
in such an emergency, it is alto
gether probable that Hepner could
have been saved.
The search for Hepner's body was
given up by the police this after
noon.
