Gary, but II is not the intention of the
corporation to begin work in the near
future. Close to sso.ooo.oo0 has been
spent to date by the steel corporation
at Gary.
Construction OF new steel plants at
Duluth has been approved by the
finance committee. The original plans
called for two blast furnaces. an open
hearth plant, rail mill. structural mill.
merchant mill and auxiliary plant,
which would represent an outlay OF
close to 100000
The steel corporation at the present
time Is operating about so per cent OF
its blast furnace capacity. Its finished
steel production is all running on a
similar basis. This represents shrink
age of approximately Is per cent from
the high level reached during the up

His bondsman is Tony Stepenovich.

charge of arson a few weeks ago, is
believed to have frightened Popevich
At any rate, his wife. according to re-
port, received a letter from him on
Tuesday, in which the writer stated
that he had left. never to return. In
contradiction OF this his brother Paul
states that Nick went to Chicago to
look for work and that he is coming
back to stand trial when his case comes

The Popevich fire was one of the
series OF incendiary blazes which ran
riot in Indiana Harbor up to a short
time ago when the conviction of the
parties responsible for the Dope blaze
put end to the practice. The fire

lowed.

The work upon the docks and break

commenced yesterday The New York,

has been lying off the proposed new
harbor for two weeks awaiting fav
orable weather her pumps in action
upon the bottom of the Lake during

The Tin Plate company will have a

tht of the Indiana Steel company and
quite as extensive in its scope. The
New York, which is the largest steam
err of the kind in existence was the
boat used in the work of the first har-
Dor builded on the Gary Lake front.
The present contract for the Tin Plate
! company provides that 100000 yards of
sands shall be transplanted from the
bottom of the Lake to the shore front
This work is being done under the pro-
visions of the riparian bill which pro-
vides that certain filing may be done
by concerns having property on the

FRANCHISES
CONE Up IN
COUNCIL

Is A closed session of the city council
and the mayor acting as a committee
OF the whole was held last night In
the city hall to discuss the franchise
question. The newspaper men were
not admitted but 1t was learned that
the council did not go into the Seamon
application but merely confined itself
to the Gary and Interurban line.
All Say 1t Is BAD.
According to the story told all of the
councilmen agreed that the Gary and
Interurban requests to monopolize the
south end streets were / too much.
Their are also certain bad points in the
Seamon grant and the chances are
tht no telling ction will be taken on
the franchises at Monday nights ses-
sion of the council.
Both of the would-be rantees de-
mand a nifty years franchise. Recently
some of the constituents OF the Gary
aldermen approached them and warn
ed the city fthers that votes will show
their disfavor at the next election if
the long ERIN gran Is given. Hence
who ever gets the franchise will prob
ably have to be satisfied with a TWEEN
ty year limit.
In going over the Gary and Inter
urbans franchise last night It's propo-
sition to pay the city five per cent after

other clause in which II wants to re-
tract a promise in its franchise of 190'

pany seeks TO get out of selling

Romance of Old Portugal

The recent deposition of King Manuel Of
Portugal and the events in the young kings
life that led up to 1t will no doubt bring back
to the minds of some Of the older residents
of the city the story of Elise Hensier, the
Springfield girl who married king and be-
came the Countess Edla.
The king she married was Don Ferdinand
II. of Portugal, great grandfather of King
Manuel. Elise lived in Springfield about 60
years ago, probably for about four years.
The Henslers were humble people and
lived simply. The daughters Elise and Louise,
we're well received here and were given a
good musical education, especially Elise, who
had quite a remarkable voice. sgnor Guidi,
an Italian, at the time we'll known teacher
of the voice, took an interest In Elise and 1t
was when Signor Guidi went to Boston that
the Hensiers went there, largely through his
influence. He believed that Elise had a fu
ture as a singer and wished her to be whers
he could continue teaching her
Elise Hensler after her removal with her
family to Boston continued her studies. She
was perseverant in her work and progressed so
we'll that she not only appeared In concerts In
the large cities in this country, but also in Eu.
rope, where she sang before royalty 1t was
while singing In Lisbon several years after the
death Of Queen Maria that King Ferdinand
heard her voice and felt the attraction that
led him to marry her
Ferdinand was the titular king of Portugal,
having been the second husband of Queen
Maria H. of Portugal. Ferdinand married
Maria In 1885, when he was 20. The queen
died In 1853, and he was regent during the mi.
norlty Of his son, Pedro ". who was the ia.
ther of the assassinated King Carlos, the
grandfather of the deposed King Manuel. The
regency ended in 1856, and on June 10, 1859
he married Miss Hensler.
When the European powers decided the
time had come to restore Spain to monarchy
following the overthrow of the short republic
which existed from 1873 to 1875, considerable
pressure was brought to bear upon Ferdinand
to induce him to accept the vacant throne
But bis wife could never be queen of Spain
and 1t is possible that this fact alone induced
him to refuse.
This absolute refusal on his part to accep
the throne Of Spain, with all the pomp ant
splendor Of royalty in exchange for the roman
tic life that he was living with his morganati,
wife, had farreaching consequences. The com
plications and jealousies resultant on the at
tempt to find king acceptable to all the pow
ers helped to bring on the Franco-Prussial
war, and Alsace and Lorraine went back Il
Germany whence they had been wrested b.
Napoleon Bonaparte.
In consequence Of these peculiar historica
facts, which geographically practically change
all western Europe, Elise Hensler. Counties
Edla, became famous throughout the world q
"the woman who changed the map Of Europe.
During the life of the king they lived in tn
beautiful castle Of Cintra. 1t Is certain this
their life was above reproach. In 1885 tn
king died, and after that the countess lived
retirement in cottage near the castle.
