GARY DAILY NEWS
DIES SECOND TINE
Ghost Unable to Walk and
the Inevitable Comes
to Pass.
FIRST PAGE VS. THE SECOND
One Says the Sheet Is Cali In" and
the Second Contradicts This
Statement.

TO run or not to rum that is the
question.
Did the Gary Daily News suspend
publication yesterday? The consensus
of opinion is that 1t has made its exit
from the newspaper arena as quietly
and uneventful as its entrance nearly
two years ago. Yet how can the two
following conflicting statements be &C
counted for which appeared in the
same edition last night?
On the first page was the formal an
nouncement as follows:
Announcement!
This issue marks the close of the
eventful and somewhat checkered ca
reer of the Gary Daily News, which
will suspend publication today.
For some time past this paper has
made heroic efforts to survive. but cir
cumstances over which the present
management has never had control, so
combined themselves as to compel the
action Of discontinuing business.
I'VE wish to thank the friends who
have endeavored to extend the help
ing hand and take this opportunity OF
assuring the public in general that we
are brought to this extremity through
no lack of proper appreciation on their
part and our only regret is that we
cannot continue to serve them.

Another Announcement.
The following statement appeared in
! glaring type on the second page:

For the past thirty days the paper wa
managed by Charles Authorson. an EN-
ploye of the South Chicago Calumet

the life of the News were futile.
A few days before the death struggl
occurred Mr.. Authorson secured tn
services of Mr.. Fred LEW OF Wauseor

STRANGE STORIES
ARE AFLOAT THERE
Its People Are in the Justice Courts
Frequently, in Fact so Much That
Ex-Prosecuting Attorney D. E.
Boone Once Threatened to Bring
Whole Settlement Before Jury.

The circulation of a quantity OF
spurious dollars and half dollars in
Gary few months ago is now be
Ieved to have been the work of the
Hosford Park people, who were ar
rested in Chicago Wednesday. and re-
suited in the raid of the settlement
south of Gary, where crime and trouble
has been rampant for the past five
years.
Several people of Gary and the Gary
police have suspected that there has
been counterfeiting done at this set
Element for some time. In fact during
the time when the feud at this place
was at its height. conditions were
quietly investigated by TINES reporter
together with Robert Law and Frank
Chambers, both of whom were con-
stables. 1t was the unanimous opinion
of the party that there was counter
feiting done in the village.
This information was obtained by
inquiry among the people and by per-
sonal investigation. The police were
Informed of the matter and Chief Mar
tin has been expecting to go into the
matter further but had not had the OPP
er crimes may be uncovered in this
city If the truth were known.
Always in the Courts.
/ A large number of the people Of Hos
| ford Park are known to be peculiar
and have been involved in innumerable
! justice court cases. In all the charges
which they have made against each
other the testimony has confiicted on
each side, and yet the witnesses were
so carefully schooled that they could
not be caught in the meshes of an at
torney's cross examination.
Al lof the witnesses showed cunning
ness and the jury. in case after case
have had a hard time to establish the
guilt or innocence of the parties. So
much trouble has occurred in the place
that for time the prosecuting attor-
ney threatened to take the whole set
tlement before a grand jury
1t seemed evident however, that
crimes more serious than had ever been
brought into court were perpetrated
in the city 1t is even thought by many
that more serious discoveries will be
| made than that OF Captain Porter OF
the United States secret service. A
few years ago a resident of this set
Element was sent to the penitentiary fol
counterfeiting.
The police became more and more
suspicious Of what was transpiring il
the village when few months age
Gary was flooded with spurious dol
! lars and half dollars. Conditions be
came so bad that the United States Sc
: cret service man was sent to Gar!
: from Indiana polls but accomplished lit
tie in getting a clew. Soon after h
) arrived the circulation of the fraudu
lent money stopped and it has not beer
5 seen in Gary since.

DID NOT WE'D
IN GARY At ALL
Bunk Story About an Elope-
ment Amuses People in
the City.
NO NEWS OF IT IN GARY
One Chicago Paper Says Young
Couple Was Married In
LaPorte.

Gary is having a good deal of fun
today as a result of a fairy story
which appeared in certain evening pa
pers last night regarding the elope-
ment of Mayor Buses sister-in-law
to Gary, where the couple was reported
to have secured a marriage license to
wed. So careful a paper as the Chi
cago Record Herald seems to have
been imposed upon, for 1t says today:
Mayor Buses sister-in- law, for
merly Miss Emily Lee and now
Mrs. George Miller. has been mar
ried at Gary. after having left st.
Marys college, Rock Island, Ill.,,
where she was a student.
The friends of the young wom-
an, who is Mrs. Buses younger
sister and is IS years old, are
whispering that she ran away from
the college without the knowledge
of the nuns and that she was met
at the gates by Mr.. Miller in a
large automobile. Mrs. Mlller's
friends further tell a thrilling
story of how the two dashed
through the night in the motor to
the nearest railroad station, board
ed a fast train and fed to Gary.
Both the Lee family and Mayor
and Mrs. Busse are stated to have
opposed to the marriage on account
of the youth of the bride and BRIDE
groom, Mr.. Miller being but 81.
Now, however. that the marriage
actually has taken place the roll
stives of Mrs. Miller are said to be
reconciled
AS matter of fact 1t would be i'm
possible for anyone to get marriag
license in Gary. All OF the Gary jus
tices and ministers deny having mar
| ried such a couple.
