one of the several concerns that will
eventually line the banks of the Calu-
met river all the way from Gary to
Indiana Harbor
In addition to the American Car and
Foundry company, which is now re-
ported to have appropriated such a
large sum for the erection of the first
buildings on the site selected for

him by the shoulders. almost picked
him up and carried him into mis- inner

Gary. Ind. Oct. -(SpeciaL)-That
the man who entered the residence Of
Captain II. 5. Norton of the Gary Land
company and engaged in a revolver
duel with him did not do so solely
with the object of burglary, but for the
purpose Of assassinating him is the
opinion of many of the friends OF the
popular land company's agent. 1t is
furthermore suspected to be the opin-
ion of the captain himself.
1t now developes that there has been
man who has followed Mr.. Norton
with the avowed intention OF getting
him out of the way. He has tracked
him all over the northern part of Lake
county and was only compelled to de-
sist when Mr.. Norton with his usual
decsiveness. got the drop on him with
his revolver and after informing him
Of his knowledge of the mans purpose,
gave him ten minutes to get out of

Norton's Office some time before the
supposed attempted burglary took
place.
Many people who know all OF the
details OF that terrible duel which was
fought out in the semi-darkness of Mr.
Nortons residence and so nearly re-
suited in the death of the steel com

that the man who entered the house
