STOCKHOLDER
CLAIMS MERGER
South Bend Man Interested
in Air Line Makes
Statement.

Several days ago newspapers printed
the story that a Chicago paper claimed
the Air Line had been sold to the Muir
docks and with it the statement of an
Air Line official that there was no
truth in the report. Now comes the
South Bend Tribune, which says:
The story of the acquiring Of the
New York-Chicago Air Line road by
the Northern Indiana could not be con-
frmed in South Bend. 1t is known.
however. that the Murdoch company
has in mind a Chicago outlet and the
story of trains west as far as Gary
over the Air Line Is given some little
credence by officials who were seen.
the Air Line has a number of
stockholders in the city and one or
two claimed to have information that
the line is concerned in some sort of
a merger. One man said this was a
traffic arrangement whereby the
Northern Indiana would transfer its
Chicago business to the Air Line at
Laporte He said inter-line tickets
would be sold and eventually the
Northern Indiana cars may traverse
the road to Gary, the Air Line cars
coming into South Bend

sufficient, but Attorney A. F. Knots
of the Gary Construction company did
not think that it was sufficient. This
is one of the points which will be set
tied by the town attorney at the ad-
journed meeting tonight.
Can Brand BE Specified.
Another point which was discussed
was whether or not certain kind OF
asphaltum can be specified by the
property owners in their petition, thus
restricting competition. The town
board contended that this was illegal
The Peters Brothers company uses
what is known as Obispo and the pc
tition called for the use of that brand
of asphaltum. IF It were necessary to
use that brand only Peters Brothers
would be able to do the work, but if
such is not the case the work would be
given to McCrea, the lowest bidder
The members OF the town board in
timated yesterday afternoon that the
contract would not be given to the
Peters company firm in any event. even
If it were necessary to reject all of the
bids. as was done once before. and re-
advertise. This the town officials are
not anxious to do, however, as they
are anxious to have the alley paved and
the work completed before severe
weather sets in.

Ready for Fall Trade.

Workmen are now engaged in thor
oughly overhauling the interior of
Kahn's department store on Broadway,
near Seventh avenue. to make way for
the arrival of a line of new fall goods.

State bank and the Gary Heat, Light

it was damaged by frost before it be-
came thoroughly dry. as various parts
of the ornamental stone has crumbled.

POLITICS IN
GARYLAND

Politics seems TO be the main thing
of interest in Gary at the present time
and little else is being talked of these
days. From now on until the repub-
lican primaries next Monday the vari-
Gus candidates will work overtime to
put forth their one best effort. Many
political meetings are being planned
for the remaining days of the present
week.
The news Of the nomination of r r.
Schaaf of Hammond for mayor. on the
republican ticket. last night. was well
received in Gary. Mr.. Sohaaf has a
host of friends here. and all feel sure
that he will be elected as the next
mayor of Hammond.
Both parties in Gary are sending
over large delegations of foreigners
to Hammond to be naturalized. which
has kept the federal authorities at
that place busy for a week. The for
eign vote in Gary, it is said, viii be

greatly increased at the city election
this fall.
The Knots democrats have changed
the date of their mass meeting from
Thursday to Friday night of this week.
The meeting viii take place at the Bin
zenhof hall. Knottss henchmen are
straining every effort now to secure a
large attendance.
1t is thought that within day or
two at least, the census enumerators
will have their report ready to present
to the town board, and it is more than
likely that an extra session of the town
board will be called. 1t is announced
that just as soon as the census is tax
en- the board will name Gary a city
and divide it into wards.

The case of the state VS.. Prosco. the
Gary constable charged with pointing
a weapon at Gabriel George, was post

siderable political significance. as Pros

ting the contract for the paving of

tract for the work would have to be
let to the lowest bidder. which was

well yesterday. "all of the bids can be
rejected by the town board and we can
order new bids to be submitted, so that

The point in controversy at the
meeting yesterday shifted from the
question of whether or not the town
boards counter petition was handed in
on time. to that of whether or not, Il
the street is Just to be paved on the
east side, it will be necessary to get
a majority OF signers for the petition

gave him but little time in which TO
carry on a campaign for the nomin
alton. In fact. in the last week of the
campaign he was compelled to spend
day in Grand Rapids and Thomas
Hammond's death made it necessary
for him to take the place of Walter
Hammond in the Hammond Savings
& Trust company for three days
Notwithstanding these handicaps his
majority was large enough to leave
ma question as to his being the choice
of the party. Thomas Swanton had
been carrying on his campaign for
nearly a year and had the advantage
OF being the only avowed candidate up
until a few weeks before the pri-
maries.
Hot Fight for Judge.
In the race for the nomination for
city judge the republican party saw
the greatest contest that it has ever
known in a primary election. Attorney
E. G. Sproat ran like wildfire in nearly
every ward in the city.
His ability as a campaigner is said
to have been responsible for his nom
nation. He made up his mind that
went after 1t in a way that made the
politicians sit up and take notice. His
friends prophesy that he will have no
difficulty in defeating his democratic
opponent.
In the various wards in the city the
race for the aldermanic positions was
