NEW ANGLE
IN PLUMBER
DIFFICULTY

a new angle in the master and Jour-
neymen plumbers wage controversy
which was thought settled by the deci-
sion OF the arbitration committee came
INTO situation this morning when H p.
Sm1h, president of the Building Trades
Association expressed his doubts as to
whether the other building crafts
would tolerate the working conditions
laid down by the board of arbitration.
Inc committee ruled that a master
plumber in order to use his tools or TO
work on job himself, need not first
employ on journeyman plumber. AS a
master plumber in the strict sense of
the word is not a union man especial1x
not one holding a card, the other build-
ing crafts may according to President
Smiths opinion refuse to work on a
job IN which master plumber who has
no card does the plumbing work. The
question will be taken at the Building
Trades meeting at Gary next Saturday.

BEREznIAk CLEARED
OF CHARGE IN CHICAGO

Leon A Berezniak's recent admfs-
sion to the practice of law in Lake
County was all that saved him from
prosecution in Chicago according to a
report in the Chicago Daily News last
evening.
Further Berezniak claimed that he
does not practice law in Chicago, con-
trary to the general impression that
his friends here have.
The News declared that he escaped
punishments on a technicality. He is
alleged to have shown the court that
he is a resident of Indiana and that
he has a license in that state to act as
lawyer in this state. However, he
has an Office in the Dearborn building
The case came up before Municipal
Judges Hines in the Chicago avenue
branrh of the Municipal court The
Judge fined willard c. Smith SIS. and
costs for a similar offense.

Fourth Lot of Interviews
With Prominent Ham
mond Business Men Shows
That Better Inter City
Communication Necessary.

The business men of Hammond are
free to express their opinion In favor
of the proposed interurban railway
mail service between the cities of the
region.
w. D. Ray, the manager of the North
ern Indiana Gas & Electric Co, stated
today that his company was decidedly
In favor of the project He said that
he likes to have daily reports from
his sub offices over the district. but
that it takes twenty four hours to get
letter from Whiting and East Chi
cago
DR.. II. f. Sharrer said that he
thought the problem of providing an
inter city mail service is the biggest
one that is facing the region today. He
said that frequently doctors in other
cities had occasion to write to him re-
garding patients they had in the To-
cal hospital and that letters were al
ways twenty-four to thirty-six hours
on the way.
Manager Green of the Hammond,
Whiting & East Chicago line stated
that he believed his company would
be willing to make any equitable ar
rangement for the carrying of the
mails. He stated, however, that he
believed the government and not the
railroad would fix the rates for the car
rying OF the mails
President John E. McGarry of the
Hammond Business Mems association
Is enthusiastically in favor of the prof.
ect and has been doing all he can to
have large attendance at the meet

Forty Hammond people found them

this sum being for the abstract and the
recording. The taxes on the property
are paid to 1911.
The lots were disposed of in the man
ner of a rattle. The agent gathered
crowd of several hundred people about
him at the First National bank corner
and distributed blank cards on which
anybody could write his name for the
drawing. He announced that the first
forty names drawn would be declared
winners of forty lots in the new town
in Oklahoma

1t will thus be seen that the meeting
is to be one of the most important
gatherings of representative business
men that has been held in this region
in some time And the work to be ac-
complfshed is equally important
1t is expected that the following
phases of the question will be taken
up:
1. Outline of the project to inaugu-
rate an inter city mail service
2. The desirability of such a service.
3. The feasibility of the plan. (a)
From the citizens point of view (b)
From the point of view OF the post
office department (c) From the point
Of view of the interurban companies
4. A discussion of the steps neces-
sary to bring about the contamination
Of the plans.
This is regarded as one of the really
big problems that now confront the
business men of the region and 1t is
expected that they will face 1t with
characteristic determination.
An effort will be made to eliminate
as many of the routine matters of the
Hammond Business Mems Association
as possible

CEDAR LAKE WROUGHT
UP OVER SITUATION
Activity of Law and Order
League Said To Strain at
Gnat and Swallow Camel
Especial to THE TINES. )

Crown Point Ind. July 14.-There is
said to be considerable bad blood en-
gendered among certain residents of
Cedar Lake regarding the recent ac-
tivities of the new so-called Law and
Order League. Charges of bad faith,
impartiaIly and unfair tactics are free
ly made and it will not be surprising
if case of turn around is fair play"
is not developed within the next few
days. Some citizens charge that the
Law and Order League strain at a gnat
and swallow a camel and that while
the constables and deputies close their
eye and wink at the Sunday saloons,
they throw a fit at some minor offense,
which was formerly overlooked
The Law and Order League in ques-
tion may be doing lots of good at the
lake but they are overlooking The
one best bet and playing the small
fry if all reports are true. It is said
that the other side have something
up their sleeves which they will spring
that may act as a bomb in the camps
of the enemy.
