BECKER IN INDIANAPOLIS.
Hammond's Chief Executive Goes to
Capitol and Circulates Among
Politicians.

Indianapolis. Ind, Jan. 24.-Lawrence
Becker. the mayor of Hammond,
dropped into Indianapolis yesterday to
look after certain features of the cities
and towns law that some OF the mem
bers of the general assembly are try
ing to get repealed.
The present cities and towns law,
tends to concentration OF power. Some
members of the Legislature are trying
to take some of the powers away from
the mayor-notably, that of appointing
members Of the board of public works
and Mayor Becker is supposed to be
here to work against any such change.
After the senate adjourned yesterday
afternoon. Senator Bowser, who had
Hammond's mayor in tow, introduced
him to the various notables around the
state house, and took him to the meet
ing OF the senate committee on cleo
tions, which is considering the contest

Introduced against Re-
hating.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 24.-The ieg-
islature is waiting for a decision of
the state railroad commission as TO
whether or not railroads operating in
Indiana have been offering rebates
and special rates to the Standard Oil
company. If the commission decides
that there has been collusion between
the railroads and the oil company.
the tip is that Immediately there will
be measures introduced IN both
branches with a view to making it
hot for both offenders.
Independent oil companies OF Indf-
ana appeared before the commission
several weeks ego and submitted evil
dence to prove that the railroads OF
the state had been giving the Stand

movement of oil fhvrn whiting, Ind.
where the Standard has an immense
refinery, than were given the inde-
pendents from points where their re-
fineries are located. An attempt was
also made TO show that rebates were
given the Standard by the railroads
and that this made competition on the
part of the independents uphill busi-

DETERMINED SECESSIONIST.
Finds Hammond Lawyers Oppose Sep

Parts of the County Until Court Mat

Charles Frfedrichs is as determined
as ever in his convictions that Lake
county should be divided into two
counties. He said this mogning that
there had been conssdera1ls opposition
developed among the lawyers of this
city for, the reason that they feared
an agitation along this line would in
terfere with the court bill.
Mr.. Friedrichs said he thought it
would be wise to let the matter drop
pending the settlement of the court
matter, but he said that he was going
to Indianapolis next week and that one
of the objects of his visit would be to
confer with certain officials regarding
the steps necessary to effect the sep
aration OF the northern and southern
portions Of the county.

Yet Germany is also the center Of

Fire Unknown.

Fire broke out this morning at $50
o'clock in the warehouse OF the ". b.
Conkey plant. entailing a loss Of $4,000.
While no one was injured there was
great excitement among the employees
and at one time. while the girls ana
men were leaving the buildings. which
were at the time in no danger at all.
there was danger of a panic.
Just how the fre started is not
known, but it is supposed that some
of the employees stepped on match
causing 1t to ignite and thereby started
a blaze among the shavings and paper
scattered over the floor.
This is. however. only one OF tho
suppositions.
Another one is that the electric wires
were crossed causing sparks to set
the paper on fire. The chances are
that the real cause of the fire Will
never be known. Walter Conkey, a
junior member of the firm. in getting
out of the building ran in front OF the
large hose of the fire department and
receiving the full force of the stream
was knocked down. but was not in
jured.
Engines Arrive I'm Nick of Time.
Only few employees were in the
warehouse at the time and they all get
out by side entrances. Had the fire
department not arrived when it did the
chances are that adjoining buildings
would have caught the blaze and prob,
ably have burned.

DIES SHORTLY AFTER
Both Legs Cut 0ff-Injured Man
One of Best Known Erie
Switchmen

Ed Mensel, a switchman on the Erie
road and well known throughout Erie
circles. met with an accident today that
cost him his life a few hours after
the accident.
Mensel was standing on the Fayette
street crossing watching another en-
gine that was off the track, when his
own engine backed up striking him
on the head and throwing him under
the wheels. One leg was cut off above
the knee and the other one below.
Only by superhuman effort did Mensel
throw himself to one side and this
probably saved his head and shoulders
from being run over. The engine was
stopped at once and several men ran
to Mensers assistance, pulling him
from under the engine. A local ambu-
lance was called and he was taken to
ST. Margarets hospital where the sur
geons finished the amputation which
the wheels of the engine imperfectly
accomplished.
In speaking to a TIMES reporter. one
of the doctors who attended the in
/ jured man said that his chances for re
/ covery were very small as he was in
/ jured internally.
| The head physician OF the Erie road
was called out from Chicago and every
thing possible was done to save th'
/ injured mans life.
