SUES FOR DAMAGES
IN SUPERIOR COURT
Mike Pollok Wants Two
Thousand Dollars From
Inland Steel Co.
VICTIM OF PECULIAR ACCIDENT
Cinder Snapper Suffers Mutilated
Face As a Result of Break
of Hook.

Mike Pollok, through his attorney p
A Parks, has brought suit in the Lake
superior court to recover damages from
the Inland Steel company for injuries
he is said to have received while at
work for that company as -cinder
snapper"
Mike Pollok claims that on Dec 20.
1908, while at work in the plant of
the Indiana Steel company he was re-
quested by Steve Dobrowski. the first
helper, to assist in taking some scrap
from the runner The runner" is a
trough through which the metal runs
to the ladle
They were unable to pry the scrap"
which is hardened metal from the
runner and attempted to loosen it by
means of the travelling crane The
chain from the travelling crane was
lowered and the hook was made fast
to the scrap and then the engines were
started in the hope that the scrap
could be pulled out
The hook at the end of the chain
broke, and the iron block flew up and
struck Mike Pollok in the face. The
blow was so strong that many of the
bones in his face were broken and he
was knocked unconscious. according to
the complaint. The plaintiffs attor-
ney asks $1,9s0 damages. $500 for doc
tors bill and all other proper relief.
The case is one of many that occur
and reoccur in the big steel plants in
the region every day, and which make
the manufacture of steel more haz-
ardous occupation than that of being
soldier.
