NEW YORK LETTER.

New York, July 19.-The feature
of the session of the stock exchange
today was quick rally which occur
red during the closing hour. The
session had been duff and without
sensation all morning.
1t was characterized by the ex-
IRENE dizziness, the volume OF bust
ness transacted being the lightest this
year. Sales up to the noon hour
were only $4,000.
There was a small trade in cop
per, Union Pacific, St. Paul. Smelt-
ers, Locomotive and Southern Pacific.
The tendency of the market early
was downward, with United States
Steel common and preferred showing
quite weak undertone. The earn
ings of this issue are at present the
largest in its history, but it IS a well
known fact that new orders for steel
rails and strustural work can be fill
ed for almost immediate shipment.
This condition of affairs does not
warrant any further increase in its
earnings. and preeludes the posi-
bility of any dividend on the common
stock in the near future.
Half an hour before the close the
short sellers of the morning began
to cover and finding little stock for
sale prices began to advance without
much resistance. The bulls who had
been biding their time joined with
the anxious shorts and prices were
marked up rapidly, the closing be-
ing the highest prices of the day

HAMMOND TEAM WILL PLAY
IN CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES
Five Picked Teams VIII Contest for
Pennant-Saturday Games to be
Played Abroad and Sunday Games
at Home.

Inspired by the recent article in
the Lake County Times the manage
ment of the Hammond baseball team
has decided to invite the managers
of teams in several surrounding
counties to join the local team in a
championship series.
Owing to the lateness of the sea-
son it has been deemed advisable to
schedule games with only FIVE teams
and these will likely play only three
games each. The fifteen games will
serve TO round out the season nicely
and are sure To be more of an at
traction on account of the champion
ship feature than any other games
that could be scheduled.
A form letter is TO be sent to the
managers of each of the following
teams, Mishawaka. La Porte Ply
mouth and the Royal Tigers Of Bre-
men, Ind. asking them if they APP
prove of the plan for the proposed
series. If they do SO they will meet
in the near future and arrange a
schedule.

bride The young couple then left
for a two weeks trip to be spent at
Wisconsin summer resorts after
which they will be at home to their
friends on Schrage avenue.
Neither Mr.. nor Mrs. Girard will
need any introduction to the public
as they both have a host of friends
who hold them in high esteem and
who join with us in wishing for them
a long and happy life.

MALICIOUS TRESFASS.
Abe 0ttenheimer and Client Smash
Door-Get Possession of
Property.

Abe Ottenheimer is not "a big
man physically, but when he wills to
do a thing he generally does it.
Frank Scheffner. the constable, exc
cuted a writ of ejectment from the
court of East Chicago, ousting Chas.
Mendholson from a residence owned
by John Jaracz. The Infatuated
man hired Abe Ottenheimer as his
attorney, and together they went to
the empty residence. 1t is charged
in the warrant that thetwo men
broke the gate in getting into the
yard, smashed the door down in get
ting into the house and then broke
some windows and tore down the
plaster after they got in. This how
ever, is denied by Mr. Ottenheimer,
who claims that only the door was
broken.
JaracZ then got out a warrant for
the arrest of both Ottenheimer and
Mendholson and they are scheduled
to appear before Judge McMahan and
explain the reason for their strenu-
Gus entry into the house in question.
1t is not known why Mr.. Often
heimer did not follow the usual GUS
tom and file an appeal bond after the
writ was issued, instead of taking
possession of the house by force.

July 25, at a. m. on the charge of
malicious trespass Mr.. Ottenheim-
er and his client Mr. Mendohlson APP
peared before Judge McMahan this
afternoon and were released on OF
tenheimer's recognizance.
The case is attracting consider
able attention because of the I'M
usual method of procedure by the
evicted mans attorney and if the
charges are substantiated it is pro-
phesied that there will be some more
serious trouble ahead for the offend
Ing parties.
When seen this afteroon by a re-
porter for the Lake County Times
Abe Ottenheimer had the following
explanation to make in regard to the
matter Mr. Otteheimer claims that
the judge at East Chicago promised
him that in the event of j. B. Ken
