that matter was involved of which
he did not wish to speak publicly. He
stated. however, that he supported the
settlement. The motion to defer was
carried.
The Attorney General IS Department
was next taken up. The House bill
made material cut in the appropria-
tion recommended by the Governor,
dropping the second deputy at 5000
per month, assistant clerk at $75 per
month and assistant stenographer at
$75. The Senate approved the appro-
priation as passed on by the House, a
total of 500, 400 in place of the $37,-
800 recommended by the Governor.
Senator Fairchild read letter from
Governor Frear, in which the chief ex-

were highly important and. that it
should receive careful attention. Sem
ator Chilingworth moved that the
item of S11 400 for expenses in the
House bill be increased to $4,000. The
motion was seconded by Senator Smith

Defer High Sheriff.

Action on the items under the head
ing of High Sheriff, prisons and jails
was deferred, the bill as submitted by
Chairman Fairchild of the Ways and
Means Committee taking for granted
that the jaifs were to be turned over
to the counties under the general plan
of county transfer. Coeiho stated that
intelligent consideration of the appro-
priation bill was almost impossible
until il was known what the Legisla-
ture intended to do with the plan of
placing duties now in the hands of the
Territory within the jurisdiction of
the counties
The Senate approved the appropria-
ting for the Auditor department as
recommended by the Governor. Sen
ator Mccarthy stated that the House
had dropped the deputy auditor and
reduced the expense appropriation on
the understanding that the Auditor
would be relieved of some of his du-
ties. but that Auditor Fisher stated
that the duties had all been reinserted
after the department s appropriation
had been reduced on the understanding
that certain work would be trans
ferred. The Senate Endorsed McCar-
thy's stand, and approved biennial sal
airy appropriations of $1,000 for the
Auditor. $4,000 for deputy auditor.

The Appropriation Bill.

The existence Of an appropriation bill
was finally recognized when Senator
kalama moved that Senate Bill 1872,
the Ways and Means Committee s bill,
and House Bill No. IA, be taken up
in the committee of the whole Make.
kau moved that Senate Bill No. 40,
the appropriation bill submitted by the
Governor. be taken up for joint con
sideration with the other two bills.
He was supported by Senator Mccarthy
who said that the bill introduced by
the Ways and Means Committee was
more in the nature of a report upon
the bill submitted by the Governor.
The motion to take Senate Bill 40 from
the table was carried and the commit
tee of the whole began business with
Senator Knudsen in the chair and three
versions of an appropriation bill before
it for consideration.
Under the heading of ''the Govern
or. the first item taken up was that

The Governor had the Adiutant Gen
eral down for 1925. but this cut to
$500 by the House of Representatives.
Senator Fairchild moved to pass the
item as it stood in the Governor s es-
innate. With the understanding that
Adiutant General Jones will remain in
his present office, Senator Kalama ask
ed how much that gentleman received
for his work in the Judiciary depart
ment. Fairchild replied that he thought
it was $3.50 a month with nearly that
much more from outside work. He said
that Col. Jones would devote all his

CHANGE THE PROGRAM
Murat Temple Drill Will
Take Place at Central
Park-Not Harrison.

Since THE TIMES printed its story or
the program of the Shrine ceremonial,
last Saturday, there has been one
change made Instead of having the
drill of the band and patrol of Murat
temple at Harrison park it has been
decided that it would be a more cen
trail location at Central park, and it
will also be easier to light the grounds
in case the drill was delayed until aft
er dark.
This will necessitate slight change
in the route of the parade, but in all
of the other score or more of happen
ings on the program. the announcement
last Saturday is correct.
The members of Orak temple are per-
fecting their drills and their nomad
band will be revelation to the people
of Hammond The officers of Oral
temple hav already had a dress re-
| hearsal and from now on this will be
| the rule.
| AS the ceremonial will be on the sec
ond of October. the officers of the new
Shrine are now busy completing all O.
the arrangements.

LOOKED FOR
Knots and His Gang Are
Quaking in Their
Shoes.

Following a visit of Prosecuting At
torney Charles e. Greenwald to Gary
last Saturday, which it is understood
was for the purpose of investigating
conditions there. it is understood that
today Judge w. c. Mcmahon, of the
Lake circuit court at Crown Point,
called the grand jury.
1t was impossible to learn just what
the grand jury is expected to do. but
the fact that this inquisiorial body
was called today indicates that there
is trouble ahead for come one.
The news that the grand jury is

comes known The numerous cases in
volving divekeepers and the rumors of
graft and double dealing on the part
Of THE man higher UP" are all sug
gested as the possible reasons for a
grand jury Investigation
SENSATIONAL LOOKED FOR.
1t is rumored that there will be some
startling developments that will result
in exposing a condition in administra-
tive circles in Gary that has been hint
! ed at, but never thoroughly uncovered.
| There are a lot of politicians. police
men and dive keepers in Gary who will
| quake in their shoes until the coming
session of the grand jury is over. 1t
is expected that another order will go
| out from the man higher up that
| gambling blind pigs and houses of ill
+ fame will have to be closed until the
! threatened trouble blows over.
Gary will very likely witness an
other farcial exodus of its vicious ele-
ment from the city. 1t will also wit
ness the stealthy back door entry of
these same people a few days after the
grand jury adjourns.
The announcement of the date for
calling of the grand jury will prob
ably be made today. 1t is understood
that Judge W. c. Mahon has judicial
cognizance of certain things that ought
to be investigated and that he may
spring a sensation himself
