plans and Specifications for Hammond's
new bridge over the Calumet river on
North Holman street were viewed and
read by the county commissioners yes
terday, and the matter was carried to
the limit of the boards power and
now the county council will have to

The structure, which calls for es-
timated expenditure of nearly $4,000.
will be the largest of its kind in Lake
county, and IL the appropriation is
made for its erection by the county
council the work the same will be
commenced some time this summer.
The plans have not been accepted as
yet by the commissioners and at pres

way it is disposed OF by the county

City Attorney Gavit Returns
From Goshen With Copies
of the Baker Writ.

The board of public works will very
likely advertise for bids on the electric
light and power contract at its We'd

ney John Gavit returned from Goshen
today, supplied with copies of the pro-
ceedfngs in which Judge Baker of the
United States circuit court dissolved
the injunction against the city, and
his ruling to refuse the writ of super
sedeas for which the Northern Indiana
Gas & Electric Light company had
asked. With the record Strengthened
out the city is now in a position to go
ahead and advertise for bids.
Adam Ebert, president of the board
of public works, this morning inti-
mated that bidding companies will very
likely have to bid on the same specifi-
cations that were laid down by the city
before the Northern Indiana Gas &
Electric company had begun its in

v. B. CONKEY TALKS
At ELkHART; SUNDAY
Says That Bible Is Un-
known Even in Civil
zation's Midst.

Elkhart, Ind. March S.-W. B. Con-
key of Hammond gave an interesting
address on the laymens forward move
morning service at St. Johns Episcopal
church Sunday.
This laymen's movement was start
ed with the idea of interesting men,
especially in the extension of the
church.
To this end they are urged to pledge
themselves to try and give more than
the sum of money which is asked for
missions each year.
Mr.. Conkey stated that there was
urgent need for more churches and
missions in this diocese; that he had
recently heard of a family, not 200
miles from Elkhart, which knew moth
ing of God or the Bible and to whom
was just like other days OF
the year. He also said that in view of
the long apprenticeship that minister
must serve. it is the duty of the people
work for which he has been trained un-
hampered by financial conditions. No
man would think of accepting the at
tention of lodge and not paying his
dues. and the church, which is the
foundation of society. ought to be
treated as well if only from purely
business standpoint, the speaker said.
He closed with. an urgent plea for
more of the spirit of giving so that the
work of the church might be increased
and new missions be started as soon
as possible.

Hammond Business Men
Praise Work Of Otto
Knoerzer, Who Has Spent
His Own Valuable Time
in Boosting Hammond.

There are a number of members of
the Hammond Business Mems associa-
ton who have come forward with the
name of Otto Knoerzer for thep resi-
dency of the organization.
They point out that there is not a
man in the association, save only E. F..
Johnston, the secretary. who has done
more for the organization than Mr..
Knoerzer
Otto Knoerzer has made the Ham
mond Business Mems association go
when it seemed as though the machin-
cry was so rusted and poor that it
could never be started.
1t was Otto Knoerzer, who originated
the idea of the Inventors and Invest
ors' council, which is at once one of
the most unique eand most practical
ideas that have ever been carried out
in an industrial community.
On the Job Always.
Otto Knoerzer is on the job at all
times. He is always present at the
meetings unless he happens to be out
of the city. There was never a time
when the Hammond Business Mems as
ISOLATION needed boosting but what Oe-
to Knoerzer was there to boost it.
Knoerzer is a product of Hammond
ana Is likely TO remain product OF
the city where he has made his fortune
His friends advance these reasons and
many more why Otto Knoerzer should
be elected president
They point out that 1t would be un-
fair to let a man like Otto Knoerzer
should do all of the work and then
turn around and hand the presidency
, to a man who had seldom attended
the meetings of the organization
Otto Knoerzer. they say. has spent
hours of his valuable time in locating
infant industries in this city, and has
taken a personal interest in the In
ventors' and Investors council, because
it was an idea Of his own.
But whether or not Knoerzer would
| accept the presidency if it were Of
fered to Him is not known. He is g
very busy man, and should he accept
the honor he would be likely to devote
enough time to it to make it a success.
,, even If he had to make some sacrifices
along other lines.
However, the idea is pretty prevail
ent that Otto Knoerzer would be the
man for the place and that Acvertures
should be made to him to accept the
nomination

Crown Point Democrat Says
He Has Heard Nothing
New in Situation.
Especial to THE TrMEs,

Crown Point, Ind, March s. This
part of the county seemingly is more
inclined to await developments in the
election of the new democratic county
chairman instead of pitching in and
adding interest and zest to the situa-
tion which exists in the democratic
ranks of the county. Until last Sunday
there was not even stir which would
indicate that the democrats in this part
of the county are at all interested in
the problem as how the democratic par
ty in Lake county should be conduct
ed An interview with George Kaiser
of the democratic war horses here late
last week was to the effect that he had
not heard democratic politics mentions
ed one way or the other.

been out for some time. Thus far /
have not heard of a single movement
one way or the other. AS to candi-

tion has been formed

BURGLAR R0Bs
CASH REGISTER
secretes Himself in Kan
mer Basement at Four
Corner Saloon.

A burglar who is thought to have
hid himself in the basement under
the saloon of B. Kammerer at the Four
Corners some time during the day.
last night carried out his work which
he had planned during the day and
robbed the cash register of $37. In
carrying on his operation he evident
ly was not afraid Of being detected
by the ninse that he made, for he
smashed the granite ledge on the reg
lister and in overturning a cruet, broke
a number of glasses.
The rear window to the place which
has been locked all winter by means of
hooks, was found unlocked and anoth-
er theory is that he came into the sa-
loon during the day, and when he found
himself unobserved, unfastened the
hooks in order that he might enter
through the window. The evidence Is
almost conclusive that he maze IS e.
cape through the window.
Works I'm Dead of Night.
The work must have been carried
on in the dead OF night, when not a
soul was on the Four Corners officer
Michael Herman was the night
shift of the beat and his movements
could easily be watched from the sa-
loon windows to learn whether he was
walking on State or Holman streets.
The robbery was not discovered un-
til the bartender opened the place at
5 o'clock this morning He found some
of the curtain drawn and several OF
drawers on the floor. The burglar
seemingly was unsuccessful in getting
all the money in the register. he
could open only one drawer Had he
been successful in getting all the con-
tents he would probably have beer
about $50 richer Thus far the po-
lice have no clues to the burglary.
