BRYAN MAY TRY

Distinguished Leader Not
Anxious to Run. But Will

San Antonio Texas. Nov 17.-wil-

rather be a spectator at the 1912 presi-
Dental race than a principal in it. He
added, however. that should the demo-
cratic party force him into the contest
he would accept gracefully, putting his
whole force into the battle.
Mr.. Bryan and his wife arrived in
San Antonio this morning, and later he
left in an automobile for duck hunt
at lake fifteen miles from here Clad
in hunting suit, with high rubber
boots, Mr.. Bryan forgot political ques-
tions for a few hours. The sport
proved good and soon he had killed
the limit, twenty five ducks.
He returned to the city and in the
afternoon made a brief address. He
said:
Il much prefer to retire to private
life, and I hope that four years hence
circumstances will not be such as to
force me into the campaign. But II
| circumstances should demand me to

POOR GARSTON SMITH
Again He Finds Himself
Without a Bondsman
in Gary.

Arthur RUSSELL the Griffith property
holder, who recently went on the bond
Of Edward Garston Smith for his ap-
peal to the superior court In his fight
to retain possession of the Smith
building, has now withdrawn and
new bond will have to be procured by
Mr.. Smith. Mr.. Russell stated to
TINES representative that he had been
misled when, he was induced to sign
the. bond and that he was glad to get
out of it,
When Mr. Russell first suspected
that everything was not all right he
began to inquire as to who Smith
was. and after that he didnot delay
in getting off the bond. r.Russen is
a large property owner living in Grif-
fifth and has made that city his home
for a number of years.
The steps in the complicated case
will be for E. G. Smith to procure an
other bond, and if he is able to do so
for the prosecution to try to have the
bond thrown out If Smith fails to fur
nish a good bond that is satisfactory to
the court he will be elected from the
building, and w. S. Feuer, the owner
from Cleveland, will be able to re-
gain possession. Mr.. Feuer feels con-
fdent that Smith cannot keep him out
of the building, but few days longer.

AFTER INSPECTORSH|P
Popular Lake County Off

Than Police Chieftancy.

Sheriff F. s. Carter Will in all prob
ability not be a candidate for the Of
flee of chief of police of Hammond when
that plum falls under the official axe of
GovernOr-EeIect Thomas r.. Marshall.
MIR. Carter has other irons in the fire.
1t is declared by Mr.. Carter's friends
at this place and elsewhere that steps
have been taken to interest Mr. Mar
shall in Mr.. Carter's candidacy for the
oil inspectorship for Lake and Porter
counties.
1t is further said that Fred's chances
for the appointment are very favorable
and his friends are ralIying to his sup
port In fine shape.
Sheriff Carter, whose term of office
expires In January, doesn't want to
have too much on his hands, and he
fears that the police chieftancy OF
Hammond will require too much time
from his business, whereas, the oil In
spectorship would not require too much
of his time and leave him foot-loose Al
the same time. 1t is believed here tina,
Fred can have whatever he wants.

WORK
To START
At ONCE
New Shops and Round
Houses of Chicago, Cincin-

East of Calumet, Are to Be
Built Right Away.

The work of constructing the new
shops and round-houses of the Chi
cagO, Cincinnati & Louisville railroad,
east of Calumet avenue and south of
Kenwood avenue in the south side of
the city, will begin at once.
Several teams are at work now level
ing of the ground and preparing it for
the buildings. AS soon this work is
completed 1t is understood the founda-
tions for the various building Will be
put In and the work of. constructing
them will begin.
Ground Nicely Adapted.
The ground which is to be devoted
to the c., c. & L. shops and round
house lies between the Erie and c., c.
& L. tracks and is said to be admirably
adapted to the purposes for which it
is intended.
The property owners in the vicinity,
however, do not like the idea of the
railroads building in that section of the
city and fear that it will hurt the sale
OF their property there.
The shops will be completed next
summer and will afford employment to

residents of the south side of the city
are asking why 1t is the company is
too poor to build depot and yet has
money to spend for shops and round
houses.
Where Is the Depot1
The c.. c. & Il depot was to be built
in consideration of the fact that the
running of the railroad through the
southern and residence district of the
city would not hurt property values.
The company has stalled the people
off until some of those who live near
est the tracks are in open revolt. They
are of the opinion that the road should
be compelled by the city officials tc
| build the depot at once.

very difficult one to handle

ney John B. Peterson, who has been
retained by George Earle, who owns a
large amount of property along the
Calumet river, announces that he will
fight the Burns ditch project to a fin
ish for his client and he believes that
he can defeat the entire plan.
While it is true that the time for
remonstrances against the project in
general is past, Attorney Peterson will
file remonstrance against the utility
of the specific plan which is proposed
by the promoters of the ditch project.
Why Mr.. Earle is so persistent in
his opposition to the great drainage
plan. which means much to the city
of Gary and the other property own
ers, is not known.

TOES VARY IN PRICE
Two Men Bring Suit in the
Superior Court For
Damages to Toes.

Why one workingman's toes should
be worth more than another's is a
mystery, and yet Attorneys Manlove
and Carver of Gary filed two suits
in the Lake superior court in which
they ask $1,000 from Edward S.
Palmer and Frank Savage of Gary,
who are alleged to be responsible for
the loss of all of the toes on the right
foot of Andrew Christensen and $5,-
900 from the Interstate Iron and Steel
company, which they allege are re-
sponsible for the loss of two toes on the
same foot of Andrew Chrustowski.
1t is not known by what method At
torneys Manlove and Carver estimate
the value of toes, but If they get what
they are suing for they will recover
$4,000 apiece for Andrew Chrustow-
skis toes and only 5000 apiece for An
drew Christiansens toes.
Christensen lost his toes while
working for a contractor on the Saw
age building. The workingmen were
hosting a very heavy stone and the
holes in the stone were not large
enough for the clutch to catch and
hold the stone. It fell and the work
lnBmen toes ana 1901 were cTuSneu
That piece of alleged negligence was
worth but $1,000 to the man who is mi
nus the toes. But when Andrew
Chrustows<i. who was employed by
the Interstate Iron and Steel company
was wheeling a large truck heavily
laden with metal and he happened tC
step on a piece of scrap iron in such
a manner that the wheels of the truck
ran over his toes and mashed two Of
them; that was worth $4,000 to tn,
man who lost them.

NARROW
ESCAPE
E. G. Miller Meets With a
Bad Accident When His
Buggy Is Tangled in Guy
Wire in Homewood Alley
Last Night.

F. c. Miller, the agent for the Singer
Sewing Machine company in Hammond,
had a narrow escape from death last
evening when he was driving down an
alley In the vicinity of Walter Ham
mOnd's residence, on his way to see
Robert Kidney, and the wheel of his
buggy caught in a guy wire and the
frightened horse kicked Mr.. Miller In
the leg.
The accident happened at about $50
o'clock last evening. The alley was
dark and Mr. Miller could not see the
guy wire, which extended from tele-
graph pole to the ground.
Horse Gets Nervous.
The horse walked to one side of the
road and suddenly the buggy was stop
ped with a violent jerk This fright
ened the horse and he began to rear and
prance.
In another minute the buggy had
been badly damaged, and had 1t not
been for the fact that Mr.. Kidney came
to the rescue, it is possible that Mr..
Miller would have been killed.
AS it was, he was kicked in the leg
and was bruised on the side when he
was thrown out of the buggy. Mr.. Mil
ler said this morning that the guy
wires are very dangerous and stated
| that DR.. Howat had similar expert
ence a short time ago.
| Mr.. Miller was able to be around this
morning, but he is lame and is still
suffering from the bruises on his side
