WAS BIC
SUCCESS
Tincher Automobile Co. of
South Bend Will in all
Probability Be Located on
the North Side in Ham
mond.

The mission Of Attorney Joseph Con-
roy to Chicago yesterday was a sue
cess, and the option on the plant of the
Tincher Automobile company of South
Bend was secured. This will mean the
addition of an important industry to
those which have already located here.
Attorney Conroy has completed his
part of the negotiations, and the fu-
ture of the company will be deter
mined by those who have purchased
the controlling interest in the new con-
Germ.
It was learned that the new com
pany will probably be located on the
north side of Hammond and negotia-
tions are now on for a site for the
plant. The Tincher company manufac-
lures the greatest racing car in the
country and also makes a high grade
of fast touring car
Option on All Stock.
The option which Attorney Conroy
secured yesterday includes all Of the
stock of the 100000 concern, all OF
the machinery and equipment Of the
present plant in South Bend, and a
number of cars which have been com
pleted.
The identity of the Hammond mer
who are interested in the new com
pany will not be revealed until tn,
company is ready to announce exactly
what it will do.
The fact that the new company is t
locate in Hammond was matter O
interest to many Hammond real es
tate owners and investors. They want
ed to know all about the concern an
where 1t will be located.

WILL GO TO THE
REFORMATORY
Thomas Filas, Aged z, Is Arrested By
Case Against Him Is Dismissed and
Little Chap Is Permitted to Go
Home to His Parents By Judge
Henderson.

A temporary end to the thieving
careers of two West Hammond young
sters was assured today when Stanley
Wachewitz. Is years old. and Joseph
Filas. 10 years old residing in So One
Hundred and Fifty-fifth street were
ordered sent to Crown Point, where.
they will appear before Judge McMa-
han the juvenile court and be sent
to the reformatory until they are q
years of age.
Thomas Filas. little fellow of 7
years was dismissed and ordered by
Special Judge Henderson to be sent
home to his parents. Judge Hender
son scored the parents of the delin
quent boys for permitting them TO run
at large at all hours of the day and
night and engage in their petty thiev-
cry. He stated that the parents were
no better than the boys and that it
was too bad they did not live in Indi-
ana so that they could be hailed before
the court and fined for not caring for
their children.
Thefts Are Numerous.
The sentencing of the boys followed
the discovery that they had stolen a
little Badger express wagon, which
Mrs. Alwod Shipley, Is Clinton street,
reported to the police she had lost. In
addition to the wagon, it was discov-
cred that the boys had taken oil
can, three bells from the barn of Geo
Post; knife two hatchets, three box
ing gloves, a can of axle grease and a
fat iron.
1t appears that the boys are so pos
sessed with the idea of stealing things
! that they do not care what is the value
/ of an article so long as it looks as
