ton wintered and the Roosevelt
was given advantage OF the high
northern base He then tells Of an
early start with his sled expedition,
February rs. 1909. In n direction to-
ward Cape Columbia.
Wonderful Journey.
From Columbia he makes a won.
d.rful journey north. From there
on. although his story IN simply a
statement OF dates. II Is very inter.
esting. and tells OF passing the rec
orda Of other explorers. Pemry
speaks much OF open water. bu,
does not tell tho method Of crossing
these leads. This interesting In.
formation will undoubtedly come
later.
lie left Columbia In March and
was delayed by open water from
the fourth 20 the eleventh. The
time lost AZ this stage was very
valuable 10 him. as n occurred az
the best shedding season. On
March IL he crossed the Saith par
alicl. From this II would appear
that he succeeded In making al
most 20 miles on two or three
marching days. only one of which
must have been good going.
Tremendous Speed.
On March i5 no encountered an
other open lead. He evidently did
not delay there very long. for he
crossed the S5th parallel three
days later. Then. with a burst OF
tremendous speed. he crossed the
seth parallel on March %. So I'm
less than a month he reached the
S6th parallel. although, TO use HIS
own words. he WAS held up for
seven days" thai month by water.
Peary again encountered open
leads from March 20 TO March 20.
and the following day crossed the
S7th parallel. On the very next day
he passed his own record made IN
April. 1909. On March 9th and
2Sth he encountered another open
lead He must have encountered
another lead on the 29th. but with
the tremendous speed be must have
been making. succeeded In cross
ing the ssth parallel four days later.
and two days later he crossed the
seth parallel. Then II required only
two days for him to reach the pole.
Made 50 Miles a Day.
Commander Peary tells wonder
fnl story OF travel over the Polar
ice. To accomplish this he must
have made 35 miles n day for many
days. which was only possible over
smooth Ice. The story simply takes
my breath away.
On the return trip the speed
seems even more wonderful. He
loft the pole on April 7 and reach
ed Cape Columbia April 90. 400
miles as the crow flies. When one
considers the moving and shifting
of the ice curves and the necessary
trouble he had to undergo TO avoid
obstacles. this distance is consid-
erably increased.
Forty Miles Day.
In the Today march from the pole
to Columbia he must have averaged
over 81 miles day. and with open
leads and other obstacles must have
been Obliged to have made the phe-
nomenal speed OF 40 miles on many
days. / do not believe that Peary

VIII be given every opportunity 10

Ready 10 Investigate.
When Informed today that the
mayor stated that II was within
the province OF the board Of public
works 20 order an investigation.
City Engineer Thomson declared
without any reservations that he
was ready and willing 10 start the
ball rolling.

Mr. Bouillon should be investlgat-

1T Is my understanding that the
man who accepted the rebates on
the lamp contract has not been in
the employ OF the city for at least
two years. but this makes no diff
ference. The charge has been made
and II should not be ignored We
should know whether or not any

city had anything TO do with the

certain city officials and the firm
TO which the contract for furnishing

granted some months ago. accepted
rebates which never reached the
city treasury.
Attempts to Smother.
He says there was no clause In
the cQptract providing for a re-
bate and that the whole transaction
was one that could not be made
public without casting reflections
on the honesty OF certain men
identified with the city administra-
ton at that time.
Supt. Bouilion says attempts have
been made TO smother the whole
affair and block an investigation
because an exposure would. he as
serts. involve "higherups." The as
sumption OF Mr.. Bouillon is that the
city employe who WAS selected to
take the rebates pocketed the
money. knowing that an investiga-
ton by the ones who expected the
graft would not be made. Mr..
Bouillon still declines to disclose
any OF his evidence before an In
vestigating committee is appointed

AGENT
MAY NOW Be
ARRESTED

A warrant Will be sworn out today
according to Judge Fitzgerald, for the
arrest of Peter Meketinski on the
charge of selling beer without a license.
There is evidence beyond the question
of a doubt that this man has been re
peatedly disposing of the beer to sa-
loon keepers about the city and no at
tempt has ever been made to have him
arrested.
Judge Fitzgerald said yesterday.
however. that this man is as guilty
as any of the saloon keepers and in
formed Meketinski that he would be ar
rested. For some reason or other, al
though many of the blind tiger pro-
prietors have gotten their beer from
this source Meketinski, who Is a local
brewery agent. has never been arrest
ed. He seems to be bathed in immun-
ity. although he is one of the worst
offenders of the liquor laws in the
city.
In connection with the case of Meke-
tinski, It might be said that he was
the man who sold John Bennett the
fifteen cases of beer and then called UP
Mayor Knots and informed him of the
matter. Knots said: Give him the
beer; We'll get him later" Gary peo-
pie would like to see him get the limit
of the law.

POOR FARM
IS SLOW FOR
ONE Inmate:

Carl Schichtner, one of the we'll
known characters about Gary and who
was run down by an automobile in Mil
waukee, has escaped from the poor
farm at that place where he was COM
mitted after the accident. Schichtner
was not only we'll known about Gary,
but spent some time at the Lake Coun-
ty Poor Farm at Crown Point.
After his escape from the poor farm
Schichtner wandered about the west
side of Milwaukee, evidently somewhat
effected mentally, until he was picked
up by Patrolman Burmeister of that
city and taken back to the poor farm.
Upon his request the authorities later
sent him back to Gary.
After leaving the Lake county insti-
tuition in June he went to Milwaukee
where he first gained prominence in
the Cream City BY being run over by an
automobile Being in destitute circum-
stances he was taken TO the poor farm
for treatment It was after he had
almost recovered that he made his es-
cape. It is not known whether or not
the man has any relatives in this city.

GARY WILL
NOT HAVE
CITY JUDGE

Judge A G. Huber, Judge P. L FitZ-
gerald and others who have been am
bilious to become the first city Judge
of Gary are now satisfied in their own
opinion that Gary will have no city
Judge, as 1t will become a city of the
fifth class. This was determined in an
opinion written by John H. Gfllett of
Hammond. formerly Judge of the state
supreme court.
Coincident with the opinion received
from Judge Gfllett, Judge Huber an
nounced yesterday that from this time
forward he was ready to cast aside all
OF his own political aspirations and
work from start to finish for the local
republican candidate for mayor, who
ever they may select as candidate.
The summary of the opinion which
satisfies the former office seekers that
there will be no city Judge when Gary
is made city, in part is as follows:
Upon the above consideration it is
my opinion that Gary will become a
city of the fifth class. I may say. how
ever in closing that it is well settled
that the words, according to the last
preceding United States census do not
tie the classification down to the cen
sus preceding the enactment of the
statute, but with the growth Of cities
they may, under such a statute, pass
from one class into a higher class Getty
OF indianapolis VS.. Navin). and there
fore, upon the taking of the census of
1910 Gary's proper place in the CLASH
tication of the cities OF the state will
lie attained. not in an unauthoritative
way, but as the statute provides. 'ac-
cording to the last preceding United
States census"

BLAZE LOOKS ODD
TO The POLICE

A fire which called out the Gary de-
partment at 1 O'Clock this morning. and
from the evidence secured looks like a
clear case of arson, may lead to the ar
rest of the owners of the building to-
day.
The building is owned by Mike Pet
rovich and is situated on Washington
street. near Twenty fourth avenue The
alarm was sent in 10 the fire depart
ment about 1 o'clock and upon arriving
Chief Feeley and his men found the
rear end of the building near the roof
to be in flames. The blaze was soon
eNtinguished. after which Chief Feley
made an investigation to find out the
cause of the fire.
