SAYS CREW
IS To BLAME
FORWRECK

Valparaiso. Ind. June 2s.-FolIow-
ing the investigation of the causes and
the responsibility of the collision on
the Chicago, Lake Shore & South Bend
1nterurban line, in which twelve per-
sons were killed and forty injured, Cor
oner j. G. Carson rendered a verdict
Saturday which places the entire re-
sponsibility on the crew of train No
So, eastbound.
The coroner said 1t has been proved
that that train has received an order
to meet train No SO at Wilson" Since
those orders were disopeyed the re-
sponsibility is laid upon the manage
ment of that train. No action has been
recommended. Motorman George Reed
was killed. D. E. Kinney was the con-
ductor.
Henry NJ. Bowling of the Indiana
railroad commission, which completed
the investigation. said concerning the
wreck:
The eastbound car in the wreck, the
one which carried the crowd from the
automobile races. was of an old type
built wholly of wood. The westbound
car. of later type. had running
through it five T beams, each about
nine inches in height and seventy two
feet long. These were used for sup
port for the floor This car was Writ
ually standing still when the crash
came. The impact was so great that
the floor was torn from these beams
and the ends were sharply curved.
The beams then became the real en-
CINE of death and were rammed
through the heavily loaded excursion
car like five great iron fingers"

HAD AMBITION FOR
STATE GUARDIANSHIP
That Should Have Paved the Way
for Him for Governorship in 1912,
But Hopes Are Smashed on the
Rocks Of Labor Disputes-Company
Said to be Unwilling to Arbitrate.
TINES BUREAU
AT THE STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis. Ind, June 26.-What-
ever hopes Winfield 7. Durbin. of An
derson, former governor of Indiana,
may have entertained for being select
ed chairman of the republican central
committee, are being said by politicians
here to be smashed for good and all by
the Evansville street car strike. 1t
may seem a far call from Evansville
street car strike to the craftsmanship
of the republican central committee
but it does not see mso far when it is
recalled that Fletcher Durbin. a son
of the former governor. is general su-
perintendent of the traction company,
which is having trouble with the strik-
ers, and that Durbin Sr. is a heavy
stakeholder in the concern. The young
er Durbin is held largely responsible
by the labor unions of the state for
the failure of the company to treat
with the strikers. and the belief has
around virtually all the union labor
men of the state against the company
and every one connected with it.
There are enough union labor votes
in the state to retire Winfield T. Dur
bin from Indiana politics for good and
all, and it now appears that the union
forces have not been ignorant of the
fact. That the unionized forces are in
terested in the political phase of the
situation is shown by repeated in
quiries which have reached the office
of Govrnor Marshall asking whether or
not the governor is any blood relation
to Henry w Marshall. vice president
of the concern. When told that the
men are not related, the inquirers in
variably express pleasure. The gov
ernor has succeeded thus far in not
arousing the enmity Of union labor. and
union labor looks upon him kindly, so
kindly that 1t feared to find him close
ly related to Henry w Marshall
It has been said among indianapolis
politicians, as well as those who come
to Indianapolis from other parts of the
state, that Durbin Sr. has been extreme
~ anxious to become state chairman,
and that he is quite as anxious to be-
come candidate for governor in 1912.
and that the craftsmanship, in his mind.
is a step in that direction.

DRAW CHECKS AND
PLACE $40 FORFEIT
Incident Showing Heat of Campaign
Occurred at Corner Of Sixth Avenue
and Broadway Last Saturday Night
After Short But Pleasant Dis
course on the Weather.

An indication of the heat of the po-
litical battle about to be staged in
Gary this fall. was shown when two of
the leading business men of the city
Theodore Binzen and T. W. EngIehart
became so enthused over John Brennan
and T. E. Knots. their respective can
wagered by them on the outcome of
the election.
This bet was made during the course
of an argument on politics in which
the two prominent politicians were the
principles. No sooner was the bet
made than checks were drawn for that
amount the forfeit placed at $40 and
the checks were deposited with a
Broadway business man.
Mr. Binzen and Mr.. Englehart met
Saturday on the corner or Sixth ave-
nue. and Broadway where the CONVEX
sation naturally drifted to politics
This soon narrowed down to the
chances of Knots and Brennan's cleo
ton.
$500 for Somebody.
There isn't a man in town that has
show with Knots" said Mr. Engle-
hart
Well. I got $500 to say that Bren-
nan will be the next mayor of this
town" Binzen replied
Your on" shot back the democrat
and the arrangements were then made
for the posting Of the bet
Mr.. Binzen is a republican, who be-
lieves that John Brennan will be the
republican nominee for mayor and that
he will be elected. One of his chief
claims is that he was proprietor OF the
only other saloon in the first subdivis-
ion outside of the Gary hotel. Engle-
hart is Knots man. and when not
talking politics, sells real estate In
the south end of the city.
The above is but one instance tend
ing to show the warmth of the politi-
cal battle that is coming on in Gary
this fall Arguments can be heard on
the streets at all times Of the day and
night, and candidates for offices are
looming up in the distance nearly
every time the sun rises

across the street. had been watching

on the floor of the porch it was more
than he could stand
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1909-06-28

Going over, Brezlna sailed into Be-
sock and did not desist until Bosock
promised to let his wife alone. Then
came the old. old tale. Instead of Mrs.
Bosock having her husband prosecuted
for beating her, she went to the sta
ton to have a warrant sworn out for
Brezina for beating her husband. She
was told that Brezina had came to her
rescue and 1t did not look right to
have him arrested. She said she would
go home and think it over, and she did
it come back again. At any rate, Bre-
zina has learned a lesson to the effect
that it does not pay to interfere in
husband and wife scrap.
