OFFICIAL INSPECTION

The forty officials OF the Wabash
railroad who visited Gary Thursday
afternoon. including President De1ano
of that line, made an extended inspec-
ton of the proposed place of inter
change at Clark junction with the E.
J. & f. lines for the handling Of their
portion OF the steel companys bust
ness.
Tt has been decided by the officials
OF the company that this place of in
terchange Will be at the same point as
that Of the Pennsylvania at the pres
ent time. This will mean the construc-
tion of several miles of new track at
this point which will begin at once.
After that time the wabash company
will be enabled to run their cars di-
rectly into the Indiana Steel company s
plant over the tracks Of the corpora
TONS line, the E. J. & E
The construction Of these yards at
Clark Station will mean the employ
ment of a small number OF men at this
place permanently and should help to
a certain extent the progress of the
town. There will also be few small
buildings erected at this place. includ-
ing an office for the purpose Of hand
ling the clerical work in connection
with the new business which they
will receive.

which have never been developed. but
it is ready for the development any
time the trust does not get it's own
terms with the Pennsylvania opera
tors or railroads.
At one time it was believed that the
New York Central was on close terms
with the trust and that it would use
the Cairo division of the Big Four
which runs near the coal field along
the Indiana-Illinois state line. for the
benefit OF the Gary and other mills. but
the operators say the trust gives the
Big Four no more business than it Is
compelled to do. Furthermore it is
pointed out that Frick, who is absolute
authority in the trust, is a Pennsyl-
vania railroad man; that he placed
McCrea in the presidency, and would
not help the New York Central inter-
ests.
Gary is now taking 125 cars OF coal
a day from the West Virginia fields.
The other mills get much more from
Indiana and Illinois A rough esti-
mate Of the consumption when Gary is
in full operation is one thousand cars
a day for Gary and the other mills, or
forty thousand tons

BIG DO|NGS
TONIGHT AND
TOMORROW
Especial to THE T1MEs.)

East Chicago, Ind, Oct 23.-Big do
ings in East Chicago and Indiana Har-
Dor by the republicans last night and
more tonight and tomorrow.
The Indiana Harbor meeting. which
was to have been an open air affair in
front of George Germans saloon. Beech
street, near One Hundred and Thirty
seventh street, had to be changed to
indoor meeting on account of the
rain. But the rain did not have the
effect Of putting a quietus on the en-
thusiasm The only reason. as one Of
those present put it. that the roof was
not raised was because the rain was
beating down so hard upon it.
There were fully zoo ardent repub-
licans who managed to crowd inside
the saloon, and these represented most
ly Roumanians and Hungarians, al
though there were also some few Poles
noted in the gathering. The speakers
included DR.. A G. Schlieker and J. d.
Kennedy. who spoke in English; I. Leon
Gould in Roumanian and George HUI
dacko in Hungarian.
While these things We're going on
In the Harbor another gathering was
forming Oklahoma, the place of meet
ing being Gabriels Sasse's hall. Melville
avenue and Chicago avenue, Chairman
c. L. Kirk of the central committee pre-
sided, and the speakers, included be-
sides DR.. Schlieker, who came over from
the Harbor meeting after he had made
his speech there; A. G. Slocomb, Walter
Spencer, Abe Ottenheimer. J. D. Ken
needy and Joe Meade all of whom spoke
in English, while d. L. Targen. an at
torney from Chicago. who has influence
with the Hungarian element and is a
good campaigner, spoke in Hungarian
in the interests of the republican tick
ct. other speakers in Hungarian were
Joe Horst. Steve Macy. Alec Jerga and
Dan Varidy.
Some one in he crowd shouted to
varidy, why don't you talk English
Dan"
L can do that. too, was Yaridy's re-
tort whereupon he proceeded to give q
rafting good talk IN English.
| The crowd at this meeting was far
too large for the hall. but as many as
could be crowded inside, while others
on the outside caught the enthusiasm
from those within. in spite of the
rain.
This evening there will be a meet
ing al headquarters in East Chicago
especially for the working men. al
though the public generally win b.
i welcome. A number of good speakers
are scheduled to talk. At the Harbo
there will be a Lithuanian meeting
at Tony Michaloda's place, One Hun
bred and Thirty-seventh near Ceda
street.
For tomorrow the program include

had 800 In his possession when he left
his home and that this fact was gem
orally known among the foreigners.
No money or other valuables were
found in his possession when he was
packed up Wednesday morning.
The stories appearing in the Chicago
papers to the effect that a plot had
been discovered whereby the life Of
President Knots of the town board was
threatened, has been found to be a
falsehood. There was no more grounds
for this report than for other stories
which have been sent into the Chicago
papers from this vicinity by ire
sponsible parties. The story of the
assassination plot was used in the Am
erican and the Tribune and was one
of the most vicious attacks on Gary
that has been sen. in by these parties.

unless it would be done as a political
trick, and then public sentiment would
be so strong against such tactics that
It would be foolish to attempt it.

GARY IS NOW
CITY FOR SURE
Papers are Filed in Circuit Court
Clerks Office at Crown
Point this Morning

Today Gary is a city. At $3.50 this
morning the statement showing that
the town had been incorporated as a
city was filed in the Lake circuit court
at Crown Point. and as it has been filed
within five days after the special cleo
tion was held all of the requirements
OF the law have been fulfilled.
1t is positively necessary. however,
that several important steps be taken
today In order to insure the Gary cleo
tons being held on the second day of
November. These steps are as fol-
lows:
l. The trustees of such town shall
divided such city into not less than
three wards, none of which shall con-
tain less than 400 inhabitants.
2. The trustees shall cause to be CIV
en- the voters OF such city ten days mo-
tee by publication in the newspapers
that an election wfll be held in such
wards.
Up to the Board.
The whole matter of the date of the
election is up to the board of trustees
OF the city Of Gary. If they do not take
action, as prescribed by law today. Il
win be impossible to hold the election
until "Wednesday, Nov. s, or until ter
days after that action is finally taken
It is possible that the town trustees
OF Gary might delay the giving of this
notice for at least thirty days. The Law
would not permit them to delay it any
longer. This would postpone the cleo
ton in Gary for thirty days.
1t is not conceivable that the boart
of trustees would delay this matter

Especial to THE TIMES. )

Terre Haute, Ind, Oct 23.-There are
several apparently authentic reports of
negotiations for the purchase of the
John r. Walsh Southern Indiana rail-
road properties. the one as to the
United States Steel company being
most likely OF contamination. Walsh
is now in New York City where Judge
E. H. Gary. chairman of the corpora
ton. is quoted as saying: I'VE have
no present expectation of so doing"
Yet there is positive information
that representatives of the steel trust
have been doing things looking toward
the ownership of the properties
Archibald Cummings, of a subsidiary
company Of the trust. has been taking
over in his name thousands of acres
of coal land along the Chicago South
ern division. Five thousand acres in
Fayette township. Vigo country, north
west of Terre Haute are included in
the big preparation to get a supply
OF coal for the Gary and other plants
near Chicago 1t is said that the coal
in Fayette township and north to Dan
vile known as No. f. is particularly
adapted to the uses made of it in steel
mills and for the byproducts, notably
coke
Personal Attention Given.
It is also known that Mr.. Bufhng-
ton, the Chicago banker, and at the
head of the Joliet Steel company. has
been giving personal attention to the
railroad In the last several months
the Joliet and other mills have given
a preference to the Chicago Southern
division in hauling coal
notwithstanding the denial by Presi-
dent Brown Of the New York Central
that his company wants the Walsh
properties. it IS told that when he and
Vanderbilt's party were in Chicago this
week they were investigating the
Walsh situation. The days of grace
allowed on the collaterals given by
Walsh TO the Chicago banks will ex-
pire next week. The story that Haw-
ley interests want the roads is not be-
lieved here.
1t is barely possible that the steel
trust is using the Walsh deal to bring
the Chicago & Eastern Illinois to
terms The latter road has asked for
better rates than have prevailed for
some time. The steel people have been
sending their own engines and cars,
with their own train crews, to the
mines and hauling the coal TO the Jol-
let and other mills, paying the Chicago
Eastern Illinois on a wheel basis
which is said TO be so low that the
Chicago g. Eastern Illinois actually lost
money on the traffic.
1t is a steel trust policy to dictate its
rates and terms and where it fails 10
