BUSY WITH THE LINE
Gary and Grown Point In
terurban No Longer
Visionary.

Engineers and surveyors under the
supervision of Civil Engineer Truxel,
are busy this week measuring dis
tances, securing plans of the topo-
graphy of the country and stalking out
the course for the proposed Crown
Point--G Gary Interurban line. This is
welcome news to Crown Point people
and those along the proposed route,
who have donated right-of-way for
the line. as it is the first practical and
substantial evidence, on the part of the
promoters, that the building of the line
is not a visionary project with them,
but that they mean to carry out the
work to a completion.
Assisting Engineer TruxeL are
Messrs. Purdy, of Lowell. Thompson OF
Chicago, and Irl Rockwell of Crown
Point 1t is said there may be a
slight deviation from are originally
proposed route, where it strikes the
VIII ]. Davis farm. AS yet no right OF
way has been donated by Mr.. Davis
and If route can be gotten that will
not add materially to the expense OF
building the road, and if free right
of way can be secured by a slight
detour around Mr.. Davis land, it will
in all probability be done.

CORONER GIVES VERDICT
Developments in Gary Muir
der Case Few and Far
Between.

There are no new developments in
the latest Gary murder case. Coroner
E. NJ. Shanklin of Hammond held the
inquest yesterday and returned the YER
dict that the unidentified man came
by his death at the hands of an un-
known person or persons.
| All efforts to Identify the victim have
so far proven unavailing The police
have been unable to advance any prob
able theory of the manner in which the
murdered man met his fate.
The club which was found at his
side was covered with blood and there
were evidences that it was the instru-
ment which caused the unfortunate S
death. Whether the murder was the
result of a robbery or was committed
to satisfy an old grudge may never be
known.
