ANOTHER
FIRE CALL;
FALSE ALARM

The fire department was called out
again al 7:45 last night on another
false alarm. This is the second that
has been turned in in the last three
days an an effort will be made to dis
cover who is responsible 70 rthis ma
ncious work.
William J. Frazier, who is in charge
of the local department in the absence
of Chief Joseph Feeley, has secured tho
telephone numbers from which the call
came in. and il the evidence against
the party can be proved arrests will
be made in a few days.
1t is believed that the person turn
ing in these alarms has a mania for
seeing the automobile fire apparatus
chugging down the street. and which
also proves something of a fascination
for the general public AS much as the
firemen would desire to entertain them
however, public safety demands that
they remain in the station until their
services are required to extinguish a
fire. Last night the call was to Four
teenth and Washington streets and the
department made quick run to that
place, where there had been no fire.

EMPLOYMENT AGENT
HERDS GARY FL OATERS
Moline, Ill, Man Induces
Millworkers to Fol
low Him.
MEETS THEM At THE GATE
Offers the Men Wages and Beer
Must Work in Republic Iron
and Steel Works.

A mysterious man, named Quinn, cor
rallied about a hundred and fifty work
men as they left the plant of the IN
diana Steel Co, Gary, last night and as
they gathered around him he made eff
forts to induce them TO leave their
work in this city and go with him to
Nome. Ill, where he claimed that they
could secure employment and have
plenty of beer.
Evidently the man was labor agent
sent out to secure men for the Repub-
lie Iron & Steel company in the mi
nois city. Knowing of the cry of steel
workers for beer he thought he saw his
opportunity to prey upon the Gary men
and induce them by offers of good
employment.
Last night the mysterious manager
announced that 1913 of the men had de-
clared their intention of leaving the
city on the 1924 Lake Shore train for
Moline, ILL.,, with him where they would
be given immediate and steady employ
ment. He said that he believed that
others would join him before they
were ready to go. He claimed last
night that he could use almost any
number of men.
The operations of this mysterious
stranger caused considerable interest in
Gary when he gathered about him a
large crowd of the workmen as they
left the mills last night 1t is not
known whether or not he will make
any further attempts to induce men to
quit their employment at the local
plant
