JUDGE GILLETT OF
HAMMOND INTERESTED
Showed Decision to Be Favorable to
the Towns Contesting Saloon Men
1t Would Not Open Doors for the
Others Although it Would Set a
Precedent.

Attorney Leonard. special counsel for
Senator Steve Fleming of the Berghoff
Brewing company. Fort Wayne, arrived
at the Gary hotel last evenings Mr..
Leonard comes to Gary to confer with
his clients. James Scanlon and Michael
Binzen. regarding the remonstrance
case which comes up for trial next
Tuesday.
Besides Mr.. Leonard, Messrs. Scan
lon and Binzen will be represented by
Attorney Townsend of Fort Wayne and
Judge Gillett of Hammond, late of the
Indiana supreme court.
Scanlon and Binzen 1t will be re-
called, have brought into court the
famous Calumet township remonstrance
case which thty seek to set aside.
Their petition recites that Rev George
Deuel. of Gary, andothers. obtained sig
natures to the remonstrance by fraudu-
lent methods. This being their claim
they will appear before Special Judge
Hanlev. in Hammond. Tuesday and seek
to have the remOnstrance declared in
valid as fas as they are concerned.
How Reconnaissance Was Procured.
On May l, 1908. a remonstrance und-
er the provisions of the state laws was
filed against the saloons of Calumet
township. Most of these were in Gary,
where more than 100 of these establish
ments looked after the needs of the
! thirsty. The state law permits a re-
monstrance TO become effective when it
| is signed by a number of voters equal
, to one-half of the number at the last
election,
As there were but few people in Gary
at the time of the November, 1905. cleo
lions it was an easy task to find enough
! people opposed to the saloons to sign
/ any document which would wipe them
out Of existence The wet" forces ar
que that if the matter was left to a
popular referendum Gary would be
! overwhelmingly in favor of saloons.
And no doubt this is true, as 1t Is in all
steel towns.
Just as soon as the licenses expired
the saloons were ordered closed. Now
the plaintiffs in Tuesdays suit come
forth and assert that many of the sig
natures of the remonstrance had af-
fairs misrepresented to them and that
they signed in good faith articles which
they would never have subscribed to
had they known the true situation.
Mike Binzen one of the plaintiffs in
the case had been connected with the
Binzenhof buffet, Fourth and Broad
way With the exception Of the Gary
hotel buffet, which Scanlon viii con-
duct if he wins. the Binzenhof is the
only saloon permitted in the first sub
division. Located near the main gate
of the steel plant and having no compe-
tition. it is said that his drink empor-
ium brought to the owners, Theodore
and Mike Binzen, an income equal tc
that of a railroad president
Mr.. Scanlon, If he is successful in his
lawng. will be proprietor of the Gary
hotel buffet, the only other saloon per
mitted in the first subdivision. Unit
, the remonstrance was born George
ODonnell. head of the hotel. conducted
the buffet. but under the new arrange
: ment Scanlon will direct it.

BAKER ANOTHER
GARY CANDIDATE
Real Estate Man Will Run
for Aldermanic Honors
in Steel City.

Still another candidate for alderman
&c honors in the Third ward of Gary
is mentioned the latest being George
Baker, the local real estate man. The
idea was first preached to Mr.. Baker,
it is said, by a party of Creations in
the south end. who waited upon the
real estate man, asked him to run for
alderman and pledged their entire sup
port to him. This delegation repre-
sents a large part of the foreign popu-
lation in the south end of the city
The list of candidates already men
toned for alderman from the Third
ward is as follows: John Bennett, re-
publican; Harley McCarty, democrat;
r. E. Houren. democrat; August KinkeI.
republican. and George Baker, repub-
lican
This should be a sufficient number of
aspirants to make things most inter
esting in the south END of the city,
and especially in the precinct known
as the bloody Sixth" Most of the
candidates are already busy looking
after their wires and laying plans for
the campaign.
Ex-Mayor Crolious is expected back
from Brooklyn today, where he has
been for the past few days. at the bed
Of his sick mother. and his arrival in
the city and his presence presages some
activity in the democratic party.

ATTACK
GEORGE BALI.
LAST NIGHT
Especial to THE T1MEs.l

Indiana Harbor, Ind. June IL
George Ball, living in Deodar street.
between One Hundred and Thirty
eighth and One Hundred and Thirty
ninth streets, was attacked late night
before last by three thugs. who knock
ed him down. cutting his head and one
of his arms and variously injuring him.
The attack occurred in Deodar street
and One Hundred and Thirty seventh.
If robbery was the motive of the
trio they failed to get any of Balls
money, but after they ran away, leaving
Ball bleeding in the street the victim
of the assault discovered that his watch
was gone A search Of the scene of
the scufhe failed to reveal the watch.
and this fact has led to the belief that
the watch was stolen in the encounter
After Ball had sufficiently recovered
from the effects OF the beating, he and
his wife put their heads together and
began to figure out a possible motive.
They suspected Jim Burkitiss and Joe
McNIakitis. both of whom it is alleged
had a grudge against Ball. Mrs Ball
went before Judge George IRELAND yes
terday and swore out q warrant against
the two men and the latter were ar
rested The men denied the charge and
asked for time in which to prove their
ahbi, and they were released on $50
bail each

their cases every saloon in Calumet

If Judge Hanley's decision favors the

SHRIEKING WHISTLE
SOUNDS THE ALARM
Chief Feeley and His Men Learn of
Trouble Only After Flames Have
Made Considerable Roadway -
Dangerous Acids and Sulphur
Smoke Add Handicap to Fight.

An IL o'clock alarm last night from
the steel plant brought the Gary fire
department TO hard battle with flames
in the plant storeroom. After des
perately fighting for an hour and han
dicapped by dangerous acid and sui
phur fumes Chief Feeley, his men. and
steel workers succeeded in preventing
the blaze from spreading.
The fire originated in a closet in the
main storeroom. This building is one
of the largest of it's kind in the steel
industry and is the storage place for
hundreds of thousands Of dollars worth
of material In some unknown manner
a fire became started shortly after II
o'clock.
Waterman discovered the blaze and
after the machine shop engineer was
notified a series of mournful shrieks
eminating from the big whistle rent
the air and woke up everybody in Gary
living near the steel plant.
Many persons in the town site
thought that one of the huge ore boats
was either on fire or in distress
Chief FeeIey Takes Charge.
The whistle also attracted the at
tention of Night Desk Man Bowling
at the police SbatAOl anu VIC ORNAeAN 80
on duty at the fire house. AS the noise
continued and no alarm came in, the
latter awoke his superior, Chief Feeley.
and notified him of the distress signal
The chief came down from his quarters
and awaited development of events.
After the whistles continued some
six or eight minutes. and receiving no
alarm the police department called up
the steel plant to learn the source of
the trouble.
Upon being told it was a fire. the
police notified the fire department of
the fact. They then went to the scene
Of the blaze which they would have
done several minutes sooner had they
been notified that fire was in pro-
gress.
Two Firemen Slightly Injured.
When the fire company arrived or
the scene Chief Feeley assumed com
mand of affairs Dense volumes OF
smoke caused by the burning of sui
phur and acid hindered the progress Of
the fremen, and time after time they
staggered out of the building hal
choking.
AS soon as Gen. Supt Gleason was
notified of the blaze he lost no time ii
proceeding to the scene. He came a
high speed in his automobile and wa
soon giving the chief every assistance
possible so that in an hours time thu
fremen were able TO leave the place.
