ANOTHER DROWNED
At INDIANA HHRBOR
Mike Kosik browns Before
Many Visitors in Four
Feet of Water.
Drownings of the Season

Drownings of the Season ~
Another very peculiar drowning
took place in the Indiana Harbor canal
in the rear of the American Steel
Foundries company at Indiana Har-
Dor when Mike Kosik, who boards in
S719 Waiting street Indiana Harbor.
was drowned in full view of half
dozen men.
The peculiar fact about the drown
ing is that Kosik was standing in wa
ter only a few feet deep when his
head was seen to fall forward in the
water and he remained in that position
until taken out of the canal by a man
who came to his rescue.
When Kosik was taken out of the
water he was dead, and the conclusion
which has been reached by those who
are acquainted with the circumstances
is that Kosik was stricken with heart
failure or apoplexy while in the wa
ter and that drowning was really not
the immediate cause of his death
Swims to His Aid.
The first man to see that Kosik was
in distress was Charles Kinko of EN-
Inns place in East Chicago. He swan
across the canal and went to his res
cue, but by the time he got to the body
of Kosik, he was dead
AS soon as the man had been taken
out of the river the police were noti-
fed and officer German was sent to
the scene of the drowning. He order
ed the body taken to Tears undertake
ing establishment. where it now lies.
Mike Kiosk is we'll known in Indiana
Harbor, where he has been doing odd
jobs around town for some time. 1t
has been several months since he has
had any regular employment
Among those who witnessed the
drowning were Peter Pop, Steve Blu
cheir and Andrew Shevlin, all of In
diana Harbor.
