New Roadway viii Open Up North
and South Parts Of Lake County
and Is Expected to Do Much In
Bringing Them Closer Together
Means of acknowledgment.

The county commissioners met at
the auditors office in Crown Point
today for the purpose of letting the
contract for the filling and grading of
Broadway from the Pennsylvania
tracks to the Ridge Road.
This contract is a very important
one and will mean the building of this
great thoroughfare across the valley
of the little Calumet river. It will pro-
vide access to Gary from the farming
districts of the south. and will be the
only road crossing the river between
Lake Station and Black Oak, a dis
tance Of eight miles
Magnificent Road
The street is to be paved to a width
of forty feet at the present time. but
the road is 100 feet wide throughout
its length and when the necessity for
paving it to its full width finally comes
it will be the finest country boulevard
III the country
The county councll11en have already
provided for a iine concrete bridge
over the river and this viii add to the
attractiveness OF this road as drive
way
The building OF the Burns ditch is
expec. I'D to prevent the inundation of
spring time and this is expected TO re-
suit in the retaining of the acres of
march land TO the south of Gary. which
will be converted into numerous truck
farms.
These things all show how impor-
tant to the broad plan of development
of the whole county of Lake to meet
the rapid growth of the northern part.
is the construction of numerous high
/ ways from the country districts of the
south to the manufacturing districts
/ of the north.
Let at Bargain Price.
! The bids as reported over the tele-
phone to THE TIMES at 2:30 this aft
ernoon were as follows: Henry Ahl-
Dor nof Hammond was awarded the
contract for the job at the contract
price Of s79,9s just one dollar less
than $4,000.
This makes the improvements TO the
south end of Broadway cost the county,
including the bridge. $4,000. The
other bidders were: Lavene Brothers,
$S3.S97; Stearns and Lamb of Gary,
$4,000; Wyatt Of Gary, $4,000; w. ].
Lynch, $s9,389; w. c. Covington. $s9.-
500; D. H. Fatout, sSs.s91: Cain Con-
struction Co.. ss2,s0O; E. H CrovelI.
$95.s91; Han and Henry, sss,475. and
! W. w. Hatch $9e,424.
The contract is one of the largest
that has ever been let for road con-
struction. That the contract is an i'm
portant one is shown by the fact that
the number of bidders were large and
the bidding reasonably close.
John w. Morthland of Hammond
bonded Henry Ahlborn for 100000 to
insure the carrying out of his contract.
! 1t was necessary for Mr.. Morthland to
go to Cleveland Saturday in order to
| make arrangements for the bond.

THEY WILL HAVE TO
EMPLOY UNION LABOR
Nearly All Contracts Go to Hammond
Men, Michigan Central Railroad
Will Build Sidetracked Into the
Plant-Henry Ahlborn Gets Con-
tract for Masonry.

The contract for the building of the
Hammond Brewing company was let
Saturday afternoon to number Of
contractors for an aggregate sum of
s49,7sO. This amount is $4,000 lower
than it would have been had the bids
been let to one contractor.
The work of construction of the
new brewery will begin at once and it
is expected that it will be completed
before the summer is over. The word
has gone out to the contractors that
any effort 10 push the construction
work will be appreciated.
It is expected that several hundred
men in the building trades will be en-
ployed, and the agreement between the
officials Of the Hammond Brewing com
pany and the contractors makes it
necessary for them to employ union
labor.
The letting of the contract last Sat-
urday removed a weight of response
bility from the minds of the officials
CT the new company. who have been
chafng under the numerous delays.
That the work is now to be rushed
through to completion is a source of
qualification to all concerned.
Local Men Get Chance.
Another source of qualification TO the
directors of the company is the fact
that the contracts. with a few excep-
tions, went to Hammond contractors.
This viii make the business more than
ever a local enterprise and meets with
the approval of the people of Ham
mond and West Hammond
The contract for the masonry went
to Henry Ahlborn Of West Hammond
Morris Bros. Koch of Hammond got
the contract for the carpenter work
the contract for the structural iron
work went to Boilers & Sons of Chi
cago, the contract for the hollow tile
and cement work went to HollingeI
e. Co. of Chicago and the insulating
win be done by the Union Fiber Co
of Chicago.
Already the arrangement has beer
made for the building of a side-trach
from the Michigan Central railroad
into the plant, and now everything is
in readiness forehe beginning of the
work.

F. R. SCHAAF SOON OUT
Hammond's Next Postmast-
er Expects to Be Home
This Week.

F. Richard Schaaf, Jr.. after a two
months siege with typhoid fever and
malaria in the Alexian Bros hospital,
Chicago, has so far recovered that he
expects TO be back at home the last
Of the week. His friends, who wish
to see him in the hospital. are now
permitted to do SO. and Mr.. Schaafs
relatives expect to have him home by
Saturday next. Though Mr Schaaf lost
nearly forty pounds during his critical
illness. he is rapidly putting on flesh
and his recovery is tempered with re-
gret that he could not attend the in
auguration of President Elect w. H.
Taft at Washington this week, which
he fully expected TO do.

spite all of this the excursionists con-
slider themselves very lucky with the
narrow escape that they have had.
