HAVE A TEMPORARY PERMIT

Most people in South Chicago and the
thirty-third ward seem to think that
the Kensington & Eastern road put one
over on the people of South Chicago
and the two local aldermen when the
road was granted a temporary permit
TO lay its tracks through the south end
of the two adjoining wards. AS d
matter of fact, in granting this tenn
porary permit. it giveh the local aid
ermen the whip hand and they are now
in line to get any concessions they
want from the Illinois Central road.
which owns the kensington & East
ern road
Temporary Permit.
The temporary permit which was
granted is only effective until Dec. !.
If at that time the transportation COM
mittee, of which Alderman Moynihan
is the head, does not see fit TO grant
them a regular permit. the company
will be compelled to tear up its tracks.
To do this would mean throwing out
the established service of the Kensing-
ton & Eastern and Chicago. Lake Shore
& South Bend roads. Before the local
aldermen will sign a petition asking
for a regular permit the company Will
be asked to grant a few concessions to
the residents of the two wards.
Wants Ten Cent Fare.
One thing that Alderman Moynihan
| will demand Of the Illinois Central
road is a ten cent fare TO and from
| downtown, protection of the right of
way and Improvement Of their cross
| ings and buildings in South Chicago.
| In the thirty third ward the alder
men, headed by Ernest Bill will ask
that the company erect an up-to date
! suburban depot at Kensington. put
| gates at the One Hundred and Thir
teenth street crossing, dedicate Front
street as a public thoroughfare. and
also remove the unsightly sheds that
now stand on the company's premises.
Road Is All Right. But
While the Kensington & Eastern
road means one of the biggest booms
for the Calumet region. the aldermen.
backed up by the people. are deter
mined to see that they are not handed
a lemon by the corporation, and before
the company secures its desired fran
chse it will be necessary TO come
across and spend a few thousand dol
lars in lettering its trackage and

Driving.
POLICE WILL MAKE ARRESTS
Street Car Conductors Must Run
Crossings There-Mrs. Theo.
Lee Has Narrow Escape.

The attention Of the police has been
called to the reckless driving of au-
tomobilists on Jeffrey avenue through
Windsor Park and Bryan Mawr and
unless the drivers stop speeding down
the avenue, several arrests are likely
to follow today
OF late automobiles from all parts of
the city have been using the Jefery
avenue road as a speeding course and
there has been several hair breadth es-
cpase as the result OF careless and
reckless driving The residents along
the classy avenue have complained to
the police and are insisting that unless
the automobiles run a a lower rate of
speed they will secure the numbers
and swear out warrants for the arrest
Of the owners. The police have taken
the matter up and promised the resi-
dents that the speeding will be stopped.
Just to give an idea of how danger

One of the narrowest escapes from

Mrs. Theodore Lee was compelled to
jump in a ditch Of muck and water
to escape being struck by an auto
mobile. Mrs. Lee was walking down the

Seventy seventh streets when she no.

street, thinking that the driver would
turn to one side she remained in the
road, but the driver continued hi.

when within few yards the aged lady
jumped to one side. falling in the ditch
the speeding autoists refused TO stoI
and see if the lady was injured. 4

NEGRESS CUTS MORGAN
Disgraceful Stabbing ARRAY
Over Pail of Beer and
Sunday Orgy.

Another disgracefu1 cutting scrape
involving negress and a white man
took place in Gary yesterday afternoon
at about , p. m. and as a result Harry
Morgan lies at Mercy hospital with two
slashes in his arm. two in his side and
two in the pelvic region.
The negress Mag Butler has been ar
rested and will have to answer to the
police for the assault which like one
of the five others which has taken
place in the past few months is said
to have started over pail of beer.
Mag Butler and her two sisters were
in a shack in the rear of a saloon at
the corner of Eighteenth avenue and
Broadway. Harry Morgan brought in
a pail Of beer and one of the girls
drank it all
Beer Causes Fight.
This started a quarrel between Nor
gan and the girl and in a flash the
knife which all Gary negro women
seem to carry in their sleeves, was
drawn and Morgan was badly cut.
The police were notified and Morgan
was taken TO the hospital where his in
1uries were found to be very serious.
Later in the day the police effected
the capture of Mag Butler and she i:
now held pending her preliminary hear
ing. The people of Gary are outraged
over the viciousness which has devel-
oped among the negros OF Gary in the
past few months and they are discuss
ing ways and means of getting then
out of town.

ONE TEAM I'M THE
POM. is THE IDEA

under Fairmont's benevolent wings
was thoroughly discussed and the
warmth of expression had cooled
down slightly, the question Of get.
ting into the P. Q. NJ. league with a
single team was taken up. This
idea seemed to meet with enthusiasts
tic approval, and tossing the Fair
mont dictation into the corner, the
fans figured on this feature as being
the most sensible and practicable in
the circumstances providing 1t could
be carried out.
At present the P. o. NJ. league is
a six club affair and Of course
Clarksburg could not get into it on a
seven club proposition. An addi-
tional club would be necessary to in.
crease the league to It's next possible
notch so the plan of taking in an.
other club was discussed. Washing.
ION, "a, pulled out OF the p. 0, NJ
because of an indebtedness of some.
thing like 5000 which was left at
the close of last season. The Clarks.
burg fans took up the idea of help
ing Washington pay off this indebt,
edness and pulling back into the
league thus making an eight team or.
ganization out of the P. o. NJ. and
letting Clarksburg in with just as
much of muchness as the super
cilious crowd down the Monongahela.
This was approved and a resolution
was adopted instrueting the directors
to make an agreement to pay a rea.
sonable share of Washington's in
debtedrcss providing that city comes
into the league again.
The directors were further in.
Istructed to meet with Il delegation
of the Fairmont association at the
same place tonight to hear What they
have to say about the matter.

Promoters Of a CIarksburg
Team Do Not Like Scheme Of
Combination With Fairmont.

Clarksburg baseballdom indig-
nantly refuses to receive dictation
from the Fairmont fans in the mat
ter of putting a P. o. NJ. league team
into this city. With emphatic words
this sentiment was forcibly express
ed by the promoters OF the P. 0. NJ.
team movement in Clarksburg at a
meeting held in room 200 Of the
Waldo hotel Tuesday night.
A good representation of those
who have subscribed to the fund for
the forming Of a Clarksburg P. o. NJ.
team was present at the meeting
which was called for the purpose of
taking preliminary steps toward
forming a permanent organization
and TO endeavor to locate Clarksburg
properly on the baseball map.
Charles s. Smiley, John NJ. Knox
and r. ]. Galley we're elected as di-
rectors. Will H. Cole presided at
the meeting and L. A. Carr and A.
b. Hall acted as temporary secretar-
les.
About the first subject discussed
was the philanthropic solicitude dis
played by the Fairmont fans toward
Clarksburg. The more this was dis
cussed the more apparent It seemed
to those participating that the Fair
mont crowd is seeking to do the
benevolent assimilation stunt with
CIarksburg in order to put sub
stantial prop under the Fairmont
baseball scheme. The brazen an
nouucements that Thomas Raymond
is going 10 be president ana that
either "Reddy" Mack or Buck
wheat" Jackson is to manage the
proposed bifurcated team made most
of the fans present hot under the
neckband when referring to them. A
brief review Of last seasons league
baseball in Clarksburg strengthened
their belief that Clarksburg has had
enough dictation from the Fairmont
end to suffice for several moons and
also that Clarksburg fans are indie
pendent enough and have enough get
up about them to exercise their Volt
ton concerning their own baseball
enterprises.
Some of the talk to this effect was
pretty warm but there didn't seem
to be any equivocation about it.
After the proposition to double up
