WHO DID
DRIVE THE
AUTO FIRST?
Especial to THE T1MEs)

Indiana Harbor, June 1.-THE cues
ton of who owns the white streak
which Alderman James Burns saw or
thought he saw as it flashed past him
on Euclid avenue near 139th street last
unday is what is agitatfng the mind
of that city father now that the comet
ha sheen safely disposed Of Mr. Burns
brought up the question of automobile
speeding 1t the council meeting last
night and used the incident as an
example to prove the necessity for an
ordinance governing the speed at
which a machine should be run
When he first brought the matter
up Mayor Schliecker wore decidedly
worried expression as did Alderman
Schock, but when Mr. Schock guilty.
inquired the color of the machine and
Mr.. Burns promptly responded. white
the mayoralty features relaxed into a
smile but not so with Mr.. Schock At
ter more questioning Mr.. Burns stated
that the auto went so fast he couldn't
see 1t but declared there were five men
in it. Mr.. Schock then thought he saw
a good alibi, as his machine only holds
four and he suggested it must have
been Mr.. Stinebreder manager of the
Republic mill who drives a big white
touring car. When Mr.. Stinebreder
was asked about the matter, he said
his conscience was clear as he never
would be bothered driving five men
around. but if Alderman Burns had de-
clared that the car was loaded with
ladies he might have to cudgel his
memory bit to think what route he
had taken Sunday.
Mr.. Stinebreder having INDICATED
himself the burden of proof seems to
rest with Alderman Schock as there
are only two white automobiles in In
diana Harbor. However Mr. slime

f0RGER IS BUSY
IN EAST CHICAGO
Especial to THE TINES J

East Chicago, June 1.-two more
saloonkeepers have been bitten by one
of the professional forgers who
periodically circulates about the Calu-
met region, fleeing proprietors of wet
goods emDoriums
The latest victims are Councilman
Daniel Varady whose buffet is located
in Alexander avenue and N Trilord,
who conducts a saloon not far from the
Varady place. The former was mulcted
of $3.50 and the latter. of s1545.
The checks presented in payment for
a drink. were both presented by the
same man and signed with a rubber
stamp bearing the name of the Calu-
met Dredging and Dock company. one
of them, that cashed in the Varady
place. was made out on a check of the
First National Bank of Hammond in
favor of John Summers. and the other
was made out on First National Bank
of East Chicago, check. Both, in ad-
dition to the rubber stamp signature
bore the name of s. E. Cameron. writ
ten in a bold hand with many -four
ishes. The check cashed in the Trilord
saloon was made out in favor of Tom
Daily.
Mr. varady was absent from the sa-
mers visited his place. Mrs varady
served the customer with a drink, and
accepted the rheck in payment. After
she had made the change and the
stranger had departed, she became
suspicious and called the police Chief
Lewis responded to the call, and while
he was examining the check, varady
himself walked in. He too scrutinized
the paper, and declared it to be all
right, and no more was thought about
the incident, until the check was re-
turned from the clearing house at Ham
mond, as worthless. At the same time
the check received in the Trilord place
was returned and both bits of paper
were turned over to Chief Lewis with
the request that he locate the passer if
possible
1t appears that there is no such
company as the Calumet Dredging and
Dock company. either in this region or
in Chicago. A couple of weeks ago a
man supposed to have been the same
person, passed a check purporting to
have been signed by the East Chicago
Company, with the name of C. A. West

The young ldies admitted that there
was something suspicious about the
whole transaction and later the young
men were forced to notify the police
of the whereabouts Of the car. Before
they could be arrested they escaped.
Facts Were True.
Miss Edna Whitfield was interview

were true. She says the young man
who drove the car was known as
"Toots" Smith and is known in Ham

called Irish" and the third young man
was called Fat" She says she thought
the young men had rented the car at
some garage until Fat" attempted to
drive it and then she suspected that
there was something wrong about the
transaction. The girls returned to
Hammond by street car and the auto
was found in bad shape at the

MERCHANT
MILLS TO
BIZ: RUSHED

Orders have been received at the
Gary steel plant to rush the work on
the 10 and II inch merchant bar mills
and have them completed and ready
for operation by September 1st
Merchant bar mills of the United
states steel corporation in the Pitts
burg district and in fact all throughout
the east are far back in their orders.
and the demand OF late has been so
heavy that the steel company decided
to complete the local bar mills as soon
as possible so as to relieve the condi-
lions.
Two Mills Vow In Operation.
The 14-inch and 1s-inch bar mills at
Gary are already in operation and the
foundations and frame work for the
new mills are completed and work is
being rushed night and day on the
buildings which will be a duplicate in
size of those now completed and in
operation.
In performing test last Saturday
night in the 14-inch mill a new 60
horse power induction motor was burn
ed out. thus causing a delay and a
loss of some consequence.
Plate Mills Completed August Ist.
Work Is also being rushed on the
new plate mill Wnlcn IS Defng con-
structed directly north of the billet
mill. 1t is expected that this depart
ment will be in operation by the first
of August. The cranes have already
been installed and the concrete floors
are now being laid.
Today work was started on building
the core for the 500 horse power G. E.
motor which when installed will be one
of the largest in the entire plant. The
motor will be used to furnish the power
for the entire rolling department Of
the plate mill.
Try Out Made In Axel Mills.
Wheels were turned yesterday after
noon for the first time in the new axel
mills. Although the axel mills COM
prise the same division as the mer-
chant bar mills. yet the mill is operat-
ed in distinct building In the try
out which was made yesterday after
noon iron was sent through the four
parts successfully. On account of the
lathes not being completed the actual
operation of the mill will not commence
until about July first
When the mill Is in full operation
it is expected that 1t will have a
capacity of over 200 axels per day.

CHUN FOOK IS
HELDFOR trial
Chief Cook Of Arizonan Bound Over
to October Term of Federal
Court as Owner Of Opium.

After hearing before Commits
sloner Judd yesterday afternoon
which lasted for two hours, Chun
Fook. first cook of the Arizonan. was
bound over to the next term of the
Federal Court, charged with having
opium unlawfully In his possession
and bond was fixed at $3.50.
The only way in which Fook could
he connected with the five tins of
opium found I'M the bakery was that
he had the key to the room, and
this was far-fetched, as Captain Mich
OILS and other witnesses testified that
the room was opened at 4:30 in the
morning and remained open so that
anyone could enter from that time
until o'clock in the evening.
The japanese steward and mess
boys all testified that they could go
into the room at any time and could
even take opium there and hide It If
they saw fit, and the chief cook
would be none the wiser.
The opium found in the room was
hidden in two places. Three tins
were in large mixing pan on a
high shelf, and the other two tins
were under -four bin which had a
three-inch space between the bottom
and the floor.
Breckons found that the only two
Chinese on board were the two cooks.
The first cook didn't use opium, and
II he had any It must therefore be
for sale. AS Chinese were represen
tatives of the only race which used
opium to any extent. the dope must
surely belong to them. Such was
the reasoning that the District At
torrey used in his attempt to show

probable cause against number one
cook who is an elderly Chinese with
hair almost white.
The Commissioner asked Breckons
II he found case of ale on the
sidewalk in front of house would
he jump to the conclusion at once
that the house was occupied by Eng
lishmen. To this the prosecuting at.
torney had no ready answer.
During the hearing. every word
Of the testimony was translated to
the Chinese and at the end the Com
missioner asked him IL he had any
thing he wished TO say. .
The only reply he had to make
was that he knew nothing about the
opium, and as to his having the key
to theI room. 1t was opened in the
morning by the second cook. This
was the one in whose grip two tins
Of opium were found.
After the statement by the defend
ant, Commissioner Judd told him that
he found probable cause and bound
him over to the October term of the
Federal Court, Bail in the sum Of
$3.50 was fixed. the same sum as re-
quired In the case OF the second cook.
