DIST|LLERY IS ILL
w. H. Mulhall Suffering
From Serious Attack of
Typhoid Pneumonia.

W. H. Mulhall. chief engineer of the
Hammond distillery, is lying danger
ously i'll at his home. $50 Michigan
avenue. He Is suffering from typhoid
pneumonia and while he is in a very
serious condition, there is some hope
for his recovery
Mr.. Mulhall has been sick since last
Wednesday, when he complained of a
severe cold and remained at home t
was not long before it was necessary
to summon a physician. and DR.. Gra-
ham of this city was called to his bed
side to make a diagnosis of his symp-
toms DR. Graham diagnosed the case
as typhoid pneumonia, and said that
Mr. Mulhall was in a serious condftion.
AS soon as the distillery officials
were informed of the precarious state
of Mr. MulhalIs health they immedi-
ately determined that neither expense
nor pains should be spared to save the
patients life. On the suggestion of
DR.. Graham, who desired a consulta-
ton, Professor Quinn of Chicago. who
is a specialist in cases of the kind. was
called into consultation. During the
past twenty-four hours there has been
no change for the worse. and this leads
the anxious watchers at the sick mans
bedside to hope that he will recover.

manager of the Flints. Mr.. Manderbach

better opportunities with Mort Singer
and people. After taking about month
to recuperate from a throat trouble,
Mr.. Emery expects to take one of the
big musical comedy comedies out of
Chicago as manager and follow the
road.

the playhouse have had an opportunity
to enjoy some very excellent shows and
the accommodation was never better.
Mr.. Manderbach comes we'll recon-
mended as an able manager, and will
undoubtedly make many friends in his
new field.

TROUBLE
FAILS To

At the Gary polls yesterday the
expected serious trouble did not oc-
cur and with the exception of few
minor quarrels everything was peace

We're arrested for assault and battery
provocation and a number OF other
petty charges, but it is likely that
they will all be dismissed today.
At Clark Station report was sent
in that the ballot box had been stolen
and Immediately a dozen or more dep

Upon arriving they found the place
surrounded by a number of suspicious
characters who soon disappeared

the souts side. struck a man in the

little or no provocation. but he was
not arrested as the matter was soon

Michigan City. nd, Nov s.-The un-
official returns from the election in
this city yesterday Indicate the cleo
tion OF Fred C. Miller. democrat pro-
prietor OF saloon facetiously called
the Bucket Of Blood. by a majority of
less than hundred votes over Oscar L.
Niemer, republican, who made gal

majority and the strongly intrenched
machine OF the Miller crowd. The ear

misgiving by the Miller following, as
they indicated his defeat In a demo-
cratic landslide four years ago Miller
was elected by nearly a thousand ma

the opposition of Swanton and the
banking and real estate interests was
too much for even man of Richard
Schaafs popularity to Withstand.
1t was not so much the influence of
the Interests" crowd on the individual
voter. as their indirect opposition which
prompted them to line up the heads of
the railroads and practically all of the
manufacturing interests in the city.
The employees Of some Of these were
informed that it was to the interest of
the company. and consequently their
own personal interest that Becker be
elected for the third term, and the vot-
er was undoubtedly influenced.
So, In spite of the fact that many
democrats and the common people were
for Schaaf. the manufacturing inter
ests proved to be a powerful influence
in the campaign. With Sehaaf's cause
lost the peoples cause was lost and
today Schaaf is proud to have gone
down to defeat lighting for a righteous
cause and knowing, as he does. that
the great majority of the common peo-
pie were with him in his fight.
Is stronger Than Ever.
in this fight, Schaaf today has proven
to the politicians Of the city that he is
tower of strength in this city. With
out question he is the leader Of the re-
publican party in Hammond and the
election has demonstrated it in the
opinion of those who have fought with
and against him.
Had the people decided the election
on the issues and not been Influenced
by the leaders of contending factions
If the manufacturers had left the
question of Becker's desirabiIity up to
the people. If the people had beer
permitted to decide the question OF
the capabilities of Schaaf and Becker
for the office of mayor Schaaf would
have been elected by an overwhelming
majority.
This is the opinion of Schaaf':
friends today, and the fact is deeply
impression on the minds of the people
that it is not their votes, but the need,
and demands of the corporations tha
have decided the issue IN this cam
paign.

whole campaign.
Ripped Up RobertsdaIe.
But while the republicans were tear
ing down the democratic fences that
had been so carefully built up during
the past six weeks were having their
own fences torn down at Robertsdale.
It is said that one of the leading
democrats went to the officials of the
American Maize Products company at
Robertsdale and informed them that
Schaaf was against the pollution of
Lake Michigan water by the sewerage
Of that company. So it seemed con-
sequently. while the republicans felt
safe in the belief that they would pull
a majority of from 200 to 250 out of
Robertsda1e. the democrats were max
ing their most vigorous attack on this
section. When the Sixth ward vote
came in Schaaf thought that he was

machine behind him, with the normal
democratic majority in municipal cleo
tions In this city 500. with the repub-
lican party split into three factions. the
regular republicans. the banking and
real estate interests and the Swanton
followers. Lawrence Becker defeated
Richard Schaaf for the office of mayor
. Of Hammond by a majority Of 2Ss.
1t Was Not Enough.
Although Schaaf's own personal pop
uiarity was great it was not sufficient
to overcome the great handicaps that
were placed in his way, but in spite t
them he made the most gallant fight
against odds that any republican ever
made IN Hammond and the large num-
ber Of votes that were cast for him is
tribute that has already salved the
wounds that may have been caused by
his defeat.
Save Seven Aldermen.
While the democrats elected their
candidate for mayor. while Duelke de-
feated Ripley by over 200 majority.
Wolter defeated Lipinski by over 500
majority. and Barnett was easily the
victor over Sproat. the republicans were
able to save seven of the fifteen coun-
cilInen on the aldermanic ticket
The returns that were received at the
republican headquarters indicated that
s"zilliam Newman had been elected to
u office Of alderman at large. but the
n shcial returns show that he was de-
feated by Markmulier. who received a
majority of but two votes over his
nearest competitors. Henry Lundt and

IT Would But 1t Didn't.
This is important for the reason that
