Mr. Earn made oath in his com

Injunction Asked by Land
Company to Dispossess
Usurpers.
HAS LOCAL INTEREST
Disputed Tract Is In South Chicago
But Hammond Men Are
Involved.

The controversy between the Illinois
Land and Loan company and the Quigg
souatters some of whom are Hammond
people has broken out anew, this time
in the supreme court of Illinois. The
company asks the court for an injunc-
ton 10 oust squatters from an eighty
acre tract in South Chicago which &C
cording to local lore is called a second
"Streetervine" In It's history 1t has been
q bloody battle-ground and even today
possession is being held by regular
frontier tactics. The writ is direct
against George H. Quigg, George
Ouigg his son; Louis and Norman
Ouigg, Frank and Joseph Loux, James
Gavin. William Pettis and others
Both George II. Quigg and Louis
Quigg are of Hammond, the latter hav-
ing held a position as night man in the
local Monon depot in order to have an
opportunity to squat" on the South
Chicago property in the day time.
Numerous attempts have been made
70 dispossess the "squatters.' but they
all have failed owing to determined
resistance. Nineteen constables were
driven from the ground on one occa-
sion. and 1t is said that at other times
IRE. force and the justice courts
have been employed to drive away
tenants who occupied small part OF
the land in opposition to the wishes OF
the "squatter."
1t is claimed by the petitioners for
Injunction that the tract OF land IN
question was purchased by the Illinois
Land and Loan company from James
w Converse in September, 1891. The
land was leased and released to Yari-
Gus persons until 1903 when George
Ouigg. according to the petitioners, en-
tered into conspiracy with the other
defendants to take possession of the
land by force of arms.
In pursuance of this conspiracy, It
Is alleged, Quigg fenced in most Of the
land. built a shanty and hoated a red
flag from the top OF pole near his
castle" Repeated attempts were made
70 drive the squatters away, but these
failed Quigg, Loux and Pettis were
arrested and held TO the grand jury,
but the elder Quigg returned to the
property and forced workmen away at
the point of a revolver.
Last July constables were driven
away at the point Of shotguns and
owners OF the property have been pow
erless to take possession.
Judge Dupuy issued an injunction re-
straining the defendants from entering
upon the land or in any way interfer-
ing with the owners or their recognized
tenants Trouble is feared and armed
resistance is expected.

CRUMPACKER HAS A CURE
FOR THE LYNCHING FEVER.
in the Sum of sIO,0OO-Law in Op-
Grafton in Ohio.

Washington. Dec, 26.-Representa-
tive Edgar d. Crumpacker has a plan
to curb the lynching evil which he
hopes the Indiana Legislature. at it's
coming session. will enact into law.
Judge Crumpacker is recognized as one
Of the leading lawyers in congress, and
his cure for lynching no doubt will at
tract a good deal of attention.
The Indiana legislature" said he.
will take a long step in the direction
of preventing lynchings in our state II
it will enact a law imposing a penalty
of $4,000 on a county that allows a
lynching to occur within its borders,
this amount to be collected by the next
of kin to the person lynched. The
crime of lynching Is condoned by pub
lie sentiment in the community where
1t occurs, and If the community is held
responsible in damages the trend Of
public sentiment is likely to take a
change for the better When the tax
payers understand that they will have
TO reach down in their pockets and pay
$40. 900 for allowing a lynching to oc-
cur in their midst it is very likely that
there viii be no more lynchings. Such
law is IN operation in the state OF
Ohio.

THREE HAMMOND BOYS
ESCAPE DROWING IN LAKE
T. Scherer and Two Companions Break
Through lee and Are Given Cold
Bath in Five Feet of Water; Forum
nteIy Near Shore.

Three Hammond boys. among them
T. Scherer who runs the elevator in the
Hammond building, had a narrow es-
cape from drowning while skating on
Wolf lake yesterday.
The warm weather had softened the
ice which was none too thick and the
young men were skating on what the
boys call the hickory bend" or in 9TH
er words ice that was so thin and
soft that 1t would yield with the weight
of their bodies.
Scherer and the two ether young men.
who names he does not know, were
skating with others on the west shore
of the lake in the vicinity of the club
house. Too many of the skaters
crowded together and the ice broke
All three were precipitated into about
five feet OF water and lively scramble
to get out followed. Fortunately they
were not far from shore and with some
difficulty they managed to get back
on the ice and reach a place of safety.
Had the water been few feet deeper
it is hard to tell what the result would
have been.

TWO HUNTERS CLAIM TO HAVE
SEEN A BEAR. AT TOLLESTON.
Say Animal Upon Observing Them,
Struck Out Through the Cane ana
Swan Under the lee of the Swamp.

Tolleston, not to be outdone in the
matter of big game by st. John and
other Lake county towns. has come to
the front with story OF two sports
men meeting up with a bear while
hunting the festive muskrat.
The hunters were not loaded for
bear or there is no doubt-maybe-t
they would have brought Bruin home
as a trophy to their sportsmanship and
also as evidence that they had actually
seen him. The tale, which may be
taken with as many grains OF salt as
is deemed necessary by the reader for
proper seasoning. is as follows:
Messrs. voss and Keopke, both Of
Tolleston, were out after muskrats on
Christmas day. They had with them
their trusty spears and possibly also
a vivid imagination. While on the
marsh outside of town they came upon
a real live bear and being game, de-
cided to hunt bear instead of muskrat
They pursued Bruin with spears
crouched ready to deal death the mo-
men the bear should meander over their
way and give them an opportunity.
But the animal, following what the
hunters took to be an instinct to es-
cape, persisted in going from them in
stead of toward them. He plunged
into the cane, the boys pursuing until
they reached a very large muskrat
house, when Bruin waved them a fond
farewell and dove under the water. 1t
is surmised he either found a watery
grave within the swamp, or swan
| away under the ice. At any rate all
trace Of him was lost excepting that
which fingered in the memories of the
almost-heroes, who returned to their
somewhat tame occupation of spearing
muskrats. They succeeded in captur-
ing three and as the hour advanced
went home, reaching there shortly be-
fore midnight.

HORSE THIEF IS CAPTURED.
Justice Of Peace l.. A. Rrian Of ToIIes-
ton Captures the man Who Stole
His Horse.

L. A. Brian, the ex-postmaster OF
East TolIeston who broke into print
some time ago when he was tried In
the United States courts for boosting
his salary. as postmaster by buying
piano with postage steamps to increase
the sales, has again secured notoriety
as the capturer of the thief who stole
his horse
Today Mr.. Brian brushed into the po-
lice station and triumphantly an
nounced to the police that he had
captured the man who stole his horse.
He also said that he had the horse too
and seemed very much elated over his
accomplishment.
However when asked the name Of
the criminal he SUDDENLY became secre-
tive and told the ques toner that it
was one Of his business. A
few moments later when the warrent
for the thiefs arrest was made out it
was found that he was Peter White OF
Chicago and that Deputy Sheriff Nor
ris would bring him back to Hammond
tomorrow providing he would return
without extradition.
