pup AND ITS PEDIGREE
East Chicago Scion Is Both
cred by a Momentous
Dog Case.
Especial to THE T1MBs.)


East Chicago, Ind, Nov. 28.-It took
the wisdom of a Solomon to decide a
dog case In Judge William A. Reiland's
court yesterday afternoon. The dog
was one with pedigree as long as that
of real, live English earl and from
the pups appearance In the court room,
was about as lively.
The canine originally belonged to
Lawrence Scotnik, a foreigner in the
south end of the city Scotnik had a
mate to the up, and made a present of
it to a friend, Stanley Domkowski.
Stanley, however. managed in some
way to get possession of both dogs,
and evidently preferred the one belong
ing to his friend Scotnik. He there
upon disposed of that presented to him,
selling 1t for $40, and for five weeks
kept the stray hound from view. At
least, so claims Scotnik. and it was
only yesterday morning that he found
out the deception that had been prac-
ticed upon him.
He then secured a writ of replevin
and claimed damages amounting to 500,
by reason of the dog being missing at
the time he was made an offer by a
prospective purchaser. Domkowski
claimed that he did not know who own
ed the dog. He then asked for So to
pay for the dogs food during its five
weeks absence. He was finally corner
| ed, and acknowledged that he would
like to have the dog and that he had
done his best to keep 1t away from
| Scotnik. The evidence was adduced by
Attorney Willis z. Roe, and Judge Reil-
and assessed damages of l cent and
costs, at the same time giving Scotnik
possession Of the dog.

siding at the Vozer boarding house on
Deodar street, is the latest victim, and
he will be buried in West Hammond to-
morrow afternoon. following services at
the Vozer house.
Shemlich is but 81 years of age, and
SO far as is known, has no relatives
in this country. He began working
for the Inland company a few months
ago, securing a position as crane
hooker his duties necessitating the
placing of heavy iron chains about the
huge metal formations. 1t was one of
these that yesterday crushed the life

dustries Expected.

Is Gary to be One-industry tOwnf
Judging by the number of applica-
tions for factory sites now being con-
sidered by the Gary Land company,
subsidiary corporation of the United
States Steel company, 1T is not. 1t has
been known recently that there have
been over one hundred small factories
which have made application for sites
in the vicinity of Gary on property
owned by the land company.
These, however, have not been made
| in the past month or so, but repres ent
the number which at the present time
would like to locate in the vicinity of
Gary. The Gary Land company, with
its thousands of acres, represents the
largest number of tracts for industrial
sites in the county. and the land which
1t owns is probably as desirable as any
to be found
An Industrial Barometer.
] The applications for land which they
have received, therefore, is good bar
ometer of the indstrial activity which
Is now sweeping over the country, and
| the figures as shown above are moth
ing short of astounding. Most of the
applications are for property west of
| Gary, largely because of the fact that
Il their largest holdings are in that di-
rection
At the present time the applications
referred to are being considered anc
at the proper time this land will BIZ
disposed of to the most desirable com
panies. In considering the applications
however, 1t is taken for granted tina
those using the products of the Indian;
Steel company will be given the prefer
ence AS far as that is concerned, how
ever, the great majority of those max
ing applications have done SO for tn
reason that they can secure such prod
ucts from the Indiana Steel company
thereby saving the cost of shipment
Independent Concerns Want In.
There is no question but what tn
manufacturers of steel and iron in thei
diversified forms will dominate in tn
industrial activity of the Calumet re
gion, and that the Indiana Steel com
pany will be the greatest of them al
but it is an important fact that indie
pendent industries desire to locate 4
this region and on the property of tn
Gary Land company, and that they wi
be admitted.
In the next ten years, If all of thes
100 industries, or others which ma
be secured, have purchased their prop
erty and have erected plants, it wi
mean the employment of probably a
many men as the concerns of the Unit
ed States Steel corporation. The TWEEN

MUST GROPE THEIR
WAY IN THE DARK
Lake Shore Rewards Gary
Patronage with Mig
gardly Treatment.
NO LIGHTS At THE STATION
Passengers Getting Off Late Train at
Mercy of Hold-Up and in Danger
of Life and Limb.

The people of Gary are becoming
highly indignant over the conditions
they are subjected to by the officials
at the local station of the Lake Shore
railroad.
: Night after night the electric lights
on their elevated platform and the
stairway leading to the street are
turned off and passengers who alight
from the night trains from Chicago are
compelled to grope their way through
the darkness, sometimes narrowly
averting injury in the rush which takes
place.
On Thanksgiving night nearly 100
passengers got off the 9:25 train and
the platform was in total darkness.
Even the lights in the station had
been turned off. In the rush to reach
the street one woman. whose name is
known. fell down the stairway and was
slipped upon by several men who were
unable to see. Matches were lighted
and the woman. more or less bruised.
was assisted to her feet and was taken
to her home on Jefferson street.
Many Complaints Are Heard.
The attention of the police has been
called to the fact that the lights were
turned out and Chief Martin has made
an investigation, but he is powerless
to act. When the train arrives at the
station Chief Martin has two officers
stationed at the platform to prevent
pick pockets and thieves from robbing
the passengers, but owing to the dark
ness men of this character could work
at will and the officers would be pow
erless to prevent them.
The Lake Shore railroad receives
more patronage from Gary than any
other railroad and the conditions at the
local station they are subjected to
seems to be the rankest kind of injus-
tice in return. At least half a dozen
complaints were received at this office
during the last two days and there has
been much talk about the conditions
around town. The least that could be
expected of the Lake Shore would be
for them to keep the platform lighted
at the arrival of each train.

ST have received letters from an un-
encouragement" said BENJAMIN f.
Shively, Thursday, to a Times reporter
at South Bend. Mr.. Shively is one of
leading candidates for the senatorship
to succeed james A. Hemenway, and
replied as above when asked as to the
present status of the race.
The prominent South Bend man was
all smiles when it came to discussing
politics, and his demeanor indicated
that he had something up his sleeve,
while his countenance flashed out a
watch me spring it, smile. So thickly
does the smoke of the Shively boom
pervade the atmosphere at South Bend
that before the Gary delegation of
junketers had been engulfed in the
drag-net of the boosters two hours,
they found themselves passing an oral
resolution, Irrespective of party afhlia-
lions, indorsing the candidacy of north
ern Indiana's biggest democrat

Mr.. Shively did not disclose what the
purport of the letters were, other than
that he would receive the support of
certain sections of the state which was
entirely unexpected He feels that his
prospects are Frightening every day.
which seems to be in accordance with
the sentiment throughout the city. AL
though there has been considerable dis
sension among the party leaders at Elk
hart, Mr.. Shively is sure of carrying his
own district, the thirteenth.
1t is also believed that he will have
with him the vote of the tenth district
although a candidate from that sec
ton has been announced, Attorney Jo-
names Kopelke of Crown Point. The
first consideration of the democrats OF
this section of the state is to get a
senatorship for northern Indiana, and
the second is to land the plum for the
favorite sons. It was with this spirit
of seeing this section of the state land
the senatorship that led the Gary Com
mercial club to indorse Shively.
Second Only to KopeIke.
| The South Bend attorney has many
personal friends in both Hammond
and Gary. He has always been yer,
popular in Gary especially, as evil
denced by the fact that he was chosen
unanimously to make the principal ad
dress at the county and joint demo
cratic conventions held this year in tn
steel city. Those who met him at Soutl
Bend Wednesday for the first time an,
heard him talk at the Commercial clu
banquet were favorably impressed.
Mr.. Shively is an able man and stand
second only to Johannes Kopelke in tn
esteem of the voters of Lake county
If the Crown Point attorney canno
land the position, both republicans an
. democrats of this county would be gla
to see Mr.. Shively get 1t.
