GRANTED A DECREE
Plaintiff Unable to Sub
stantiate Charges Against
Wife's Character.
MUST PAY COSTS OF CASE
Defendant Who Filed Cross Bill Loses
Alimony When She Doubles
Amount Asked.
Especial to Lake County Times.)

Crown Point. Ind, Oct. 4-The Dun
sing divorce trial which has aroused
SO much interest in Hammond and vi
cinity on account of the prominence of
the parties was settled this morning
when Judge McMahan at Crown Point
granted both Dunsing and his wife a
divorce.
Mrs. Dunsing through her attorney
filed a cross complaint in which she
asked for a divorce on the grounds that
she had been cruelty and inhumanly
treated.
After considering the merits of the
ca Sc the judge decided to award both
a divorce and restore Mrs. Dunsing' S
maiden name, Minnie Loebel.
Mrs Dunsing had first asked for
81 600 alimony and it had been agreed
tc pay her this amount but she in
creased her demands to $4,000 and then
Crumpacker and Crumpacker the at
torneys for Mr.. Dunsing decided ia
fight the payment of alimony and sue
ceeded in their efforts
Dunsing, however, was compelled to
pay the court costs and $3.50 attorneys
fees. This amount practically to pay
ing the costs of the case and is con-
sidered a victory for Mrs. Dunsing.
The other charges which were in
Dunsing's complaint were not proven
and he secured his divorce simply on
that part of the complaint which al
legged that he had been cruelty and in
humanity treated.

Investigation By Wisconsin Iron and
Steel Co. Shows Concern Was
Duped By Employees.
VIM. O'NEIL, AUDITOR, ONE OF THOSE LET OUT
Detectives Find Plot to Rob Corporation of Pig Iron
Loss is Variously Estimated Between $5,-
600 and $4,000.
Especial to Lake County Times)

South Chicago, Oct. 4.-FolIowing the
loss Of thousands of dollars worth OF
pig iron by the Wisconsin Iron and
Steel company at Irondale, three OIL
the prominent employees Of the COM
pany were discharged recently and ar
rests may follow. it is said. The ar
fair has created a lot of scandal
amongst the employees of the company
and it is rumored that others may be
implicated in the affair
The men discharged were William
O'Neil, auditor of the company, and
two yardmasters. 1t was stated by
William Perkins, general superintend-
ent of the company, that the loss to
the company will be between $4,000 and
$4,000 For many months past the
company found that it was losing
a small amount of pig iron each day
and was unable to account for the
loss of the same. They tried to trace
It but were unable to do so, as the
men involved in the affair were clever
enough to cover all traces of their
crime
The books of the company showed
no trace of the loss. Detectives were
put on the case and it was found that
during the time of operations, which
.asted many months, many thousands
of dollars worth had been stolen. 1t
was found that when the pig iron was
shipped to the plant in ears, portion
of the load was taken at once to for
eign cars which were leaving the plant
arr Skipped to~an unknown market
just how many men were concerned
in the deal Is matter Of speculation
at tho present time. Following the
discovery of these facts the books OF
the company were audited and the ac-
counts of Auditor O'Neil We're gone
over. The discharge of the auditor and
the two yardmasters followed. 1t is
not known just what policy will be
followed out by the company in the
matter. but it is said that arrests will
follow speedily. 1t is also limited that
other discharges will follow those al
ready made.

Nights Camp Fire.

With flags and bunting decorating
the business section of Holman street
and large flag hoisted across the
street at the court house, Hammond
today welcomed the Bloody Ninth"
of the Civil war for it's twenty-ninth
annual reunion. Until noon forty-tiv
of the remaining seventy who origin
ally enlisted fror this state had gath
cred in the G. a. r. rooms in the su-
perior court rooms and all forenoon
the veterans marched up and down
Holman street between the court
house and the X. of P. hall which
had been arranged for them in the
Rimbach block. No special program
was to be deserved during the day
which suited the old people so much
better as it gave them a chance to
mingle and rehearse the tales of by
gone days.
All are awaiting the campfire at
Towles opera house tonight to, which
the public is also invited and at which
time an interesting program will be
| rendered.
AS they stood about in groups in
the streets, the aged warriors whose
history every child in Indiana knows.
presented inspiring as we'll as a
piiable sight. Inspiring because of
their valor and bravery and patriot
ISM piuable because of their age and
the weakness to be observed in the
cases of some, much of which was due
TO the hardships of war that they have
undergone.
The G. A. r. room was a favorite
resting place and mingling there with
them one could overhear snatches of
stories that one OF a group was tell
ing.
Jacob MiIIer's Wound Stiu Fresh.
One of the veterans who was the
center of attraction for a time was
Jacob Miller. WHO had come from
Braidwcod, Ill. to attend the reunion.
/ Mr. Miller was a member of Companv
X and was telling how he received
that CHASTITY wound which is still raw
and open and directly in the middle of
the forehead. The old man told how
of the first day in the battle at Chick
amauga, a musket bali from Harm
er's Ferry gun hit him in the middle
OF the forehead. His comrade. Chas.
4 Barnes. who sat beside him as he
told the story. picked him up for dead.
The nlusket ball that entered Mr..
Miller's forehead contained three
buckshots. Nine months after the hat
tie the musket ball was extracted
Fourteen years later, one of the buck
shots and thiray-one years later the
two remaining buckshots.

Death Intervenes and Re
mits the Fine Imposed
on Martin Lane.
ARRESTED FOR INTOx|GATION
After Trial, on Verge of Delirium
T'mens is Taken. to Crown Point
Jail Then Dies.

Judged guilty and sentenced to pay
a fine for being drunk, Martin Lane of
Akron, Ohio, was not compelled to pay
the penalty imposed by Judge McMa-
hon, for within a few hours after the
trial he was called before a higher
justice and passed out of the jurfs-
diction of the Hammond officials. At
ter the trial he was in such a con-
dition that it was thought best to re
moved him to Crown Point, where he
died early last night.
Lane was arrested on the streets of
this city yesterday afternoon where
he was found staggering around. He
was under the influence of liquor and
was unkempt and showed that the
love for strong drink, coupled with the
uncertainty of his manner of living
and exposure had wrecked his once
iron constitution. He was on the verge
of delirium tremens and shook and
trembled as with the ague. He was
placed in a cell for several hours and
after seeming sober he was brought
before Judge Mcmahon in the city
court He appeared to take the pro
ceedings as a matter of course and was
fined 81 and costs, amounting to SO
in all.

Chance to Sober Up.

The sentence was imposed more for
the purpose of giving the man a chance
to sober up and get better care at
the county Jail than he would on the
street AS he had no money he was
taken back to the cell to await his
removal to the Jail. He was then re-
moved to the county Jail With a sigh
of eontentment he laid his weary frame
in the little Jail cot and sank into
an almost blissful sleep. After lin
gering for a short time his broken con-
stitution seemed to succumb to the
awful punishment the man himself had
imposed upon it and he breathed his
last. without a relative or friend at
his bedside. The authorities will await
the coming of relatives to claim the
remains. if he has any relatives, or
else they will be inferred in the pot
ter's field.

Fun in the Home.

The home should be made the
jolliest place on earth for the child
rem. Don't be afraid of little fun
at the family freside. Don't let
the boys think that all mirth and
social enjoyment is barred from the
home, if you wish to keep them
away from vice and degradation.
Young people must have fun and
relaxation somewhere. and if they
do not find it i'll their home, they
will seek it at other and less de-
sirable places. Parents should not
repress the bouyant spirits of their
children, but join in their merri-
ment around the home tireside. The
children will lose none of their re-
spect for their father or mother If
they occasionally loosen their dig
nifty and take part in the children's
fun and sport. An evenings romp
and play with the young folks will
drive dull care away and dispel the
memory of many an annoyance Of
the day. Have fun at home.-Ex
