NOT FOR MRS. STRATTON.

A Slick little swindler tried a
slick" little trick on Mrs. Stratton
who conducts a small grocery at 447
East State street, yesterday, but the
worthy lady proprietor was not to be
taken into the fold so easily. The
man called at the store and bought a
big bill of groceries and talked so
nicely while Mrs. Stratton was doing
up the parcels. The reason for his
fine talk was apparent when he offered
a check for about So more than the
goods were worth and asked the good
storekeeper to cash 1t. She took a
look at the check and was not to be
caught by any such a game 50 she re-
fused The man was indignant and
said that he would not take the goods
then, so back to their original places
went the goods. He is described as be-
ing about 35 years of age and small
of stature.

NO NEGROES TO
LIVE IN GARY
Real Estate Board Issues
Edict to Keep the Black
Man Out.
NOT ON RECORD. BUT IT GOES
Members Pledged to Sell No Property
to Tabooed Race-Already
a Problem"
Especial to Lake County Times.)

Gary. Oct. s.-The real estate board
has INT upon a plan for the exclusion
Of the negro population. All of It's
members which include nearly every
real estate dealer in the city of Gary
have practically agreed not to sell real
estate or to rent houses to the choco
late eolored residents of the city.
Gary has a rapidly growing negro
problem. 1t is estimated that there are
between a thousand and twelve hun
dred blacks in the new steel city.
When laborers were scarce and it
was apparent that the work of build
ing the mills and the city would be de-
layed If men were not brought in to do
the work, negroes were welcomed into
the city.
Now however, those who came at
first have written to their friends and
they have responded to the call from
the new town in a surprising manner.
There is one negro in Gary to every
nine or ten white men, and to walk
through some sections of the city one
would think he was in a southern city.
The real estate boards idea is that
right now. but to make him a per-
manent resident Of the city would be a
calamity. The matter was discussed at
recent meeting of the real estate
board. but the determination of the
members to refrain from selling prop
erty to negroes did not go on record
| Many Of the negroes are good work
| ingmen, and they would not be so IN
desirable if they could be induced to
| leave whiskey alone.
The drastic measures that have beer
| decided upon will be tried for a while
and If they do not work 1T may be ne
cessary 70 go a step farther and deny
him the privilege Of working in the
city. This the citizens know would bt
an effectual means of solving tn,
/ problem.

from an Eagles meeting. His trusted
barkeeper. Charles Mason, a seaman by
trade had disappeared with S51 in

Mason is Sc years old and single and
came into the employ OF SouthweIl
about six weeks ago. He never showed
any signs Of his thieving tendencies
and his employer began to have faith
in him. Leaving Mason in charge last
night he little thought that the man
whom he had befrended when he was
out Of work would thus repay him.
Learning of his loss late last night, he
hired a rig and drove to South Chicago
where he hoyed TO learn more about
the thief. His efforts there were fruit

Every Merchant of His Race
in New York,
Especial to Lake County Time..)

South Chicago, Oct. 9.-The Chinese

coming alarmed over the appearance of
the New York Highbinders, who are
supposed to be in Chicago, and more
than one Oriental in South Chicago is
taking care not to venture out during
an evening for fear of being attacked
Mock Dock. the leader of the Tong,
is supposed to be hiding somewhere in
South Chicago, and it is this rumor
that is causing the South Chicago Chi
nese no little worrying.
The police from both the East Side
and the Fifteenth Precinct stations are
on the lookout for Mock Dock, and If
he is found in South Chicago his i'm
mediate arrest will follow
The Tong Of which Mock Dock is at
the head, have blaekmailed nearly
every Chinese merchant in New York
City, and leaving New York decided
upon Chicago as their stamping
grounds. The Chinese Merchants As
sociation of Chicago. at once notified
the police of the arrival of Dock and
his followers.
The mere mention of the name of
Mock Dock strikes terror in the heart
of the Chicago Chinese and this morn
ing when Wah Xxi. a South Chicago
laundryman was asked what he
thought about the matter, he replied
with shrugs Of the shoulders and low
grunts with ALE samee heap bad men;
no likee,' and when asked If he
thought there was any chance of the
highbinders getting after him, he said
nothing more than heap bad man" and
continued to shrug his shoulders.
