Battle Raging Between the
Giants and Chicago
Nationals.
MATTHEWsON ON SLAB
Terror of National League Opposes
Brown in Terrific Pitchers
Contest

New York, May 21.-The town has
gone base ball crazy. The contest be-
tween the Cubs and Giants to determine
who is the real champions of the Ma
tional League will draw one of the
largest crowds ever gathered togeth-
er in the Polo grounds. Hours before
the game was expected to be called,
crowds began streaming in at all of
tho gates. Estimates as to the attend
ance varying from fifteen to twenty
five thousand looks to be nearer right.
When the game was called, Matthew
son and Bresnahan were the battery
for the locals, while Brown and Killing
officiated in a like capacity for the
Cubs.
The game was played very fast UP
to the first three innings The Cubs
experienced great difficulty in hitting
Matthewson. He has always been a
tough nut for the Cubs to crack. AT
the close of the third inning the Giants
had scored one lonely run while the
Cubs We're still in the goose egg col
unm.
In the fourth inning, however, the
Cubs found Jesse for a couple of singles
which combined with a costly error
enabled the Cubs to score two runs
thus making the score up to and <.clud-
ing the fourth inning two to one in
favor of the Cubs.

Districts of Mystery.
District number four, which includes
Crown Point, Center, Ross and Winfield
townships is the district of mystery.
1t is known that the young women in
this district are working hard and It
is also known that they are getting re-
suits, but for some reason or another
there have not been many OF the votes
cast as yet and so the situation remains
one of many possibilities.
This is the condition in district num-
Der five also and the candidates in this
field may expect anything when they
begin to cast their votes and reveal
their strength.
The contestants are bowling along at
a good pace in district number seven
which includes South Chicago. Cole
hour, East Side, South Deering and
Hegewlsoh. They are all very close
in this district and Miss Anna Donna of
South Deering is leading them all. 1t
is hard TO tell just what turn affairs
will take in this district.
District number eight which includes
Stony Island. Kensington and Pullmeu
and other cities In their vicinity, is
the scene OF good warm contest The
votes are coming in fast and there is
the usual interest in the contest.
Every week the rivalry becomes more
heated and IL will not be verg- long be
fore 1t will be a good guess as TO who
will be the winner in her respective
district.

Sheriff Carter spoiled a daring at

the plucky sheriff. McCuskey. who was
serving out a S25 fine and FIVE days
sentence on a charge of drawing a
razor on Officer Jenkins at Gary last
February, has been a very unruly
prisoner and has caused much trouble
at the jail. He has had several fights
with his cell mates, and a few days ago
was put in cell by himself. This cell

by an old fashioned lock. This he

GIBSON YARDS
ASSUME SHAPE
Extensive Works Just East
of Hammond Are Ready
for Operation.
OFFICES TRANSFERRED
Purveyors Of Liquids Quick to See
Advantage Of Situation,
Flock in.

The people of Hammond do not seem
TO appreciate the great activity that has
been going on in the vicinity of the
Gibson yards. Perhaps it Is because
there has been too much of interest at
the Standard Steel Car company's plant
and at the plant of the Western Glu-
cose company at Robertsdale
But the great Gibson yards project
is important even If 1t has been over
shadowed by several others that have
been attracting attention of late.
The great yards with their gravity
system OF classifying cars have been
completed and the sement subway that
will permit the passing of teams under
the network of railway tracks is also
finished.
At Gibson proper the work of CON
structing the affice building that is to
replace the one across from the Mich
igan Central depot in this city is com
pleted and the office force will be
moved to the new quarters next Sat
urday afternoon and Sunday.
Grounds to be Beauti1ied.
The grounds in the vicinity of the
Office building and the hotel at Gisbon
are 70 be beautified until the spot will
be an attractive one. There has been a
great deal of filling done and on top of
yards upon yards of sand there has
been placed a great quantity of black
dirt. upon which. grass will be grown.
Gibson Is to have a water and sewer
system of it's own. There is being a
four-inch pipe extended to Lake Mich
igan where the water supply will be
secured and a large sewer is being built
to the Calumet river where the sewage
will be dumped.
There are several houses being built
in Gibson in addition to the hotel and
before another year passes H. ts ex-
pected that there will be quite a popu-
lation in this the newest part OF HAM
mond
SIOOnkeepers Flock i'm.
Already there are enough saloons to
supply a town larger than Hammond
and soon there is expected to be gro
Gerry store and meat market for the
convenience Of the residents of the
district.
Trains will be run between Hammond
and the shops at Gibson at convenient
intervals so that the workingmen who
live in 1lis city may go back and forth
to wark At first the advisability of
moving from this city to Gibson was
doubted but II was finally decided that
1t would be more of a convenience to
be near the center of the comptny S
activity than near the working mans
homes and so the offices were moved.
Gibson is soon to be one of the most
important OF the outlaying districts Of
Hammond and will doubtless encourage
the growth Of the city in an easterly di-
rection.

She Refuses, However, to Confirm
Rumor, and Declines to Dis

Mrs. Joseph Dunsing returned to

Hammond Sunday with the idea of con-

it is declared that mutual friends of
the two young people interested thNm-
selves in the matter and that an at
tempt at reconciliation which may
prove successful was made at young
Dunsing's solicitation.
Mrs. Dunsing is spending most of her
time with the John F. Kuhlmans, Hoh-

Waits Lutheran Pastor.
The handsome young matron was
down town this morning and later she
visited the Rev. Theodore Claus of the
German Lutheran church. presumably
for advice as to what she would best
do in the matter. She was reached by
telephone while at the house of the
minister, but declined to confirm the
rumor.
Mrs. Dunsing said: "T prefer to keep
that matter to myself There has been
far too much publicity given this case
already and I am opposed to saying
anything more on the subject"
But you can surely say. Mrs. Duns-
the suit your husband has instituted

Mr. Dunsing was not at the bank

been there all morning but had left for
luncheon and had not returned.

GREEN BUG TO BAT
1t and Adverse Crop Reports Help
to Keep Cereal Market
Soaring.

Chicago, May 21-Professional wheat
spectators were again convinced that
the public has control of the wheat
market and that they can do whatever
they please with it. Dollar wheat has
become the regular order of the day.
Prices on change again scared sky
ward with the outside public the larg
est buyers all during the session. July
wheat almost reached new high levels,
having a range of four cents bushel,
selling as high as 102 from an opening
around 90.
A few of the pessimists and skeptics
upon the crop situation have been
ridicullng the statement that the pub
lie at large is running the market.
nevertheless, it is demonstrated beyond
a a.question of doubt whenever they take
hold and start to buy, the market re
spends very quickly.
The same class of bull news per-
meated the wheat pit as during the
previous week, although it was more
pronouncedly bullish than ever. Houses
with foreign connections have been
conspicuous buyers of all the future
options. Reports from Europe are not
as fiattering to the crops of India and
ginning to come from the other side
Green bugs in the southwest; dis
agreeable weather in the northwest
which retards the seeding of the spring
wheat and large losses estimated to the
winter wheat crop by all of the crop
experts We're the bull factors which
caused the advance in the speculative
market. The closing prices tonight
were almost the highest of the session
with the bull enthusiasm running high
and indications pointing to another
demonstration tomorrow.
The coarse grains came in for their
share OF the higher range OF values.
Both corn and oats scored for the day
averaging about two cents for each
cereal.
1t is pointed out that there is a great
deal of outside trade in both corn and
| oats by the same people who have made
large sums upon the bull side of wheat.
1t is also stated that the coarse grains
are in line for higher levels If for no
other reason than to become more in
line with the price of wheat.
The same crop damage stories was
| the cause of advance in oats which af-
fected the wheat market. Green bugs
are reported to be doing enormous
damage to the oat plant in the south
west All Of the speculative markets
closed with the advances well main

The dotted goods are very fashion

that has been particularly favored
this summer is the dotted batistes,
some of these are as fine as silk and
as shimmery in effect, and in nearly
all cases are made up over silk. One
of these for a garden party was of
very light almost green shade of
