REALTY MEN SCHEMING
Proposed to Run Excursions
Out From Chicago
TO Gary.

The real estate men of Gary have
started an innovation in the way of
selling property and getting their
parties interested in it. The plan is to
run excursions out to Gary two or
three times week from Chicago, all
expenses paid by the companies. One
of the first ones to adopt this plan is
Harry King. and Sunday he brought
out a crowd of sixty-three from Chi
cago TO look at his property. He re-
ported several sales from the expert
ment.
The plan is now being taken up by a
number of the dealers and in a short
time 1t may be that the companies will
carry on the work Jointly and run an
excursion train out from Chicago daily
When they arrive in town they will be
given the liberty to deal with whom
they choose.
Think Plan VIII Work.
In this manner the real estate deal
ers hope to interest many in the city
who could not be induced to come tc
Gary and see the advantage Of an in
vestment themselves. The sales re-
ported by all of the dealers who have
tried this plan, has proved the success
of the novel idea. Those who are
brought here have an opportunity t.
see the city, whether they wish t
purchase property or not. Many o.
them become attached to the city and
locate here ultimately. The excursions
are generally managed by the Chicago
offices of the real estate firms.

BROADWAY SOUTH
NOT TO Be PAVED
Gary Town Board Hears
"Reminiscences in Re-
gard to Paving.
ROUTINE MATTERS TAKEN UP
Discussions of Attorneys on Important
Question Will Be Taken Up
Later On.

The Gary town board held a short
session yesterday afternoon, with John
Sears absent, because of being out of
the city. The most important bust
ness that came up before the board
was the filing of the remonstrance
against the assessments of benefits and
damages in the matter of widening Of
that section Of Broadway south of the
Pennsylvania tracks. A large number
of people filed remonstrances. The OBJ
jections were principally that the ex-
pense should be borne by a larger
number of property towners or partly
by the city at large, as has already
been stated in THE TIMES.
Action Is Deferred.
The board could do nothing but de-
fer the action until the next regular
meeting, Tuesday. At that time the
discussions of the attorneys represent
ing the property owners involved will
be heard. It is now practically GER
tain that the street will not be paved
this year now that the remonstrances
have been filed. In case there was no
setback, such as this it would have
been difficult to complete the work
this year and now 1t is impossible, al
though the people in general were very
anxious to see the work completed.
Another important action that was
taken was when the board acted upon
the suggestion Of Mayor Knots and
instructed the street commissioner, Jo-
seph Martin. to force the property
owners along Broadway to keep their
walks cleaned off. In many Instances
where cuts have been made in ridges
the sand has run down onto the walks
and assisted by the wind, have made
them in places almost impossible. In
some places it is almost impossible to
tell that sidewalk had ever been
built. The street commissioner has
been instructed to not only force the
property owners to clean the sidewalks
but to keep them clean in the future
This will have a good deal of effect
in the appearance of the street.
Instructed to Give Notice.
The city attorney was instructed to
prepare a written notice on the sewer
contractors. Green & Son, that the city
did not want a three-ring sewer and
if the company insisted in putting 1t
in the city would refuse to pay for it,
1t developed that there was a two and
a half inch ring sewer specified in the
contract and the company was putting
in the three rings on their own Volt
ton. The contractor states that he
will be unable to guarantee the sewer
unless the three complete rings are
used.
The Pennsylvania was instructed not
to construct a fence about their prop
erty known as Pennsylvania park, as
the fence about the park practically
closes up one of the side streets. The
company was about to extend the fence
| clear around their property. After the
bills were allowed the board adjourned

DRIVEN FROM DOWN TOWN
CROOKS RESORT TO SUBURB

The Chicago police have almost rid
Chicago of crooks, while the conven-
ton is to be held in Chicago, but, the
same clever crooks will make the su-
burbs in and around Chicago, unsafe.
When the police start to make a
cleanup in the down town district, the
Undesirable citizens, buns, loafers and
vags, start out on a hike to the pretty
suburbs.
Already many petty thefts have been
reported to the police and many houses
have been broken into as a result OF
cleanup in the downtown district on
account of the murder.
In Stony Island a few nights ago
a saloon was broken into and sum
of money and cigars were stolen. AS
yet no clew has been found to the rob-
berry.

LapOrte, Ind, May 26.-Sheriff Smut

CITY TAKES UP CUDGELS
Whiting Authorities Go
Right After H. w. & e.
G. Street Ry, Co.
Especial to THE TIMEs).

whiting. Ind. May 27.-The street
railway company and the Whiting city
officials are very much at odds over
the paving of One Hundred and Nine
feenth street. Yesterday both lines
were blocked for over an hour, until
the South Chicago office was notified
ind an Official WIS sen out to give
relief. He finally succeeded in keep
ing one of the lines clear. The city is
having a great deal of trouble with
the street car company. The company
was ordered to cut all its ties that
projected more than eight feet from
the center line Of One Hundred and
Nineteenth street and refused to do so.
Contractor NedjI, who Is paving the
street, then was told by the city au-
thorftfas to go ahead and do the work
and the city will force the company

RIOT TAKES PLACE
IN A SALOON
Seven Rioters Gathered in
by Police After Wag-
ing Hot Battle.
CHAIRS and CUES ARE USED
Saloonkeeper Is Fined for Carrying
Concealed Weapons After
Rioters Trial.
Especial to THE TIMEs).

Indiana Harbor. Ind, May 27.-As the
result of a discussion over the merits
of towns in Austria, from which they
came to America last year, twenty
Hungarians turned the Joe German sa-
loon on Beach avenue, near One Hun
dred and Fifty-seventh street, into a
shambles yesterday evening about 6
o'clock. Out of the twenty seven were
quite badly hurt, but none of them
are necessarily fatal.
How the Fracas Started.
Most of the Hungarians who were
in the saloon are employed at the Uni
versal Portland cement plant at Buff
hngton and got in an ugly mood after
determinations and sarcastic remarks
had been banded back and forth.
Chairs and billiard cues came into play
and how several skulls that came into
contact with the furniture ever es-
capped being cracked, is more than the
spectators can tell.
Riot Cali Sent In.
When the police were notified Of the
affair they responded in hurry and
upon their arrival found the saloon in
a state of turmoil Blood was spat-
tered over everything and the police
thought some one had been killed
They made seven arrests and after Sc
curing several names warrants will be
sworn out for eleven more. At the
conclusion of the riot, while the police
were making the arrests, a crowd Of
500 foreigners gathered in front of the
police station.
This morning the trials of the ar
rested men took place and Andrew
Larzes, John Youchu, Alex Lucas and
Joe Chawski were fined $16.s5 apiece
by Judge E. w. IRELAND. Joe German
the proprietor of the saloon, was fined
sI1 for carrying concealed weapons.

MORE GARY MEN
IN DEEP TROUBLE
Restaurant Keeper Arrested
For Kiting Check
in Bank.
DRAYMAN BLEEOS CUSTOMERS
Collects Amounts Totalling $3.50
From Friends in Bust
ness Lines.

Another trusted Carlyle has gone
wrong and the list now includes, be-
sides Sulentich, Prodonovich, Nowak
and others the names of NJ D. Colognia,
a restaurant keeper, who formerly ran
& place in the Majestic theater building
in Chicago, and Henry Weber, well
known and trusted drayman who is al
lodged to have forged 10 checks.
| Colognia came to Gary a short time
ago with the best of references and
started what was considered one of the
finest cafes in the city. He had the
bulk of the best trade and was ap-
parently very successful.
He opened a branch restaurant near
the Lake Shore tracks a short time
ago and this venture proved a failure.
It was not long before one business
involved the other and yesterday the
crash came.
Colognia owed bills all over the city
and it was found upon investigation
that he was too badly involved to have
any hope of extricating himself. Yes
terday he was arrested for issuing a
check without having any money in the
bank
Given n Hearing.
He was given a preliminary hearing
before Judge H. A. Townsley of Toles-
ton and was placed under 5000 bonds.
Druggist J. A. Brennan of Gary went
on his bond but later thought better
of it and induced Colognia to go to
Toleston with him and release him from
the bond
Colognia did this and then asked per-
mission Of Judge Townsley to go out
| and hunt up another bondsman. The
Judge gave his permission and the last
person to see Colognia was John Nc
Fadden. who says that he saw him
tearing through the woods at rapid
pace in his effort to escape.
The fall of Colognia is regretted in
Gary for he was considered a man of
high reputation and everyone hoped
that he would be able to release him
self from his financial entanglements.
Weber Forged Checks.
The case of Weber is equally to be
deplored. He was drayman who had
made the acquaintance of every mer-
chant In the city while making his de-
liveries.
He was generally known to be an
honest, Industrious man and everybody
trusted him. He was employed by the
A. L. Anchor company and had been
in Gary 2 years or ever since the city
was founded.
| Yesterday he started out at ten
O'Clock in the morning and began a
tour of the business houses on Broad
way.
Visits Many Places.
He visited dozens of merchants and
succeeded in passing checks on a great
many of them They ranged in sums
from SIS to SIS or $40 and later in the
day when they began to come in the
police estemated that he had been able
to get away with at least $3.50.
1t is believed that all of the mer-
chants have not yet been heard from
and Judging from those who saw hin
and noticed that he was very busy anc
that his face was covered with sweat /
is possible that the amount may reacl
5000 to $500.
The police are working on the case
however and they claim that they be
lieve they will land their man by night

Marshall McCorm ck OF Berryvll @,
spoke for two hours this morning IN
behalf of DR.. Gregory. The court
room was packed with spectators
who manifested u lively interest in
the proceedings. MIR. Mccormick
declared that tho case might well
be called the case o. Keedlck aud
Coulter against DIR. w. s. Gregory
and sa that ne exonorated Mss
irvine from any connection with tho
prosecution. She was an "Unfor-
tunately Ha Mcina;ed lady. 1t
was a case OF persecution and not
prosecution.
Mr.. Mccormick argued at length
to show that Miss Irvlne's state
ments were consistent W tn the the
ory or haTuc nation. There was
not a s.ngIe with 81 to corroborate
Miss Irvine a. to what took place
In that inner room. On tho ono

terr.ng to Miss lrvines staten MT
as to her consciousness ani tho
numbness OF body that prevented
her for a time from resist ng, Mr..
Mccormick declared that no power
save ahat pf the Almighty could
have st lied her volco or numbod
her limbs IL she were conscious OF
the awful outrage.
Mr.. Mccormick then dwelt at
some length on the expert testimo-
ny, the larger part of which he said
was IN favor OF his client. on Tho
Gregory side there was aso to be
placed the testimony OF the n egro
Lee Martin. who was employed at

PASSES CASE
SUPREME COURT DECIDES THAT

Wash ngton, Nov. 17.-The SUI
preme court OF the United States 20
day reversed the decision of the
United States circuit court for the
wootern District OF Kentucky, in
the case Of the Louisville and Nash
Vile Railroad Company VS.. Erasmus
l.. and Annie Motley, on the ground
that that court was wtnout juris-
diction. both parties being citizens
or Kentucky
The case involved the interesting
question whether the Hepburn rail-
road act prob bit ng the issuance of
free passes could be invoked to an
null a contract. The Mottleys re-
ceived injuries on the Louisville
and Nashville road in 1871, and
agreed to accept free transportation
on the road for the remainder OF
their Ives as compensation for the
damage done them. When the Hep
burn act went into effect the road
refused to issue further passes, on
the ground that it was prohibited
by law. and the couple brought suit
to compel compliance with contract.
The court avoided dealing with
this quest on, and in reversing the
decision OF the court below, direct
ed IL to dismiss the case.
