JUDGE BARNETT
DISAGREES WITH BRS.
Refuses to Sit in Case When
Peddler Kaplan Is Re-
Arrested Today.

The police have a problem on their
hands with Barnie Kaplan, a young
Jewish peddler A sanity commission
turned him lose yesterday, having
found him sane, and when he was ar
rested again this morning on the
charge of cruelty to animals, Judge
Barnett refused to sit as judge in the
case, because he believes Kaplans san
ity to be questionable. AS a result the
young man was locked up temporarily
in the police station. Later in the day
he was again tried for his sanity and
found to be demented.
Kaplan believes himself bounded by
certain Jews in Hammond, saying that
they are attempting to get possession
of a fortune which he has, and ex-
plains his raving in the cell on the
ground that he is deprived of his lib
erty. He speaks of his acquaintance
with the German emperor and will oc-
casionally make a pass with his fist at
some ina aginary person.
Yesterday morning he abused his
horses shamefully while he drove over
the sidewalks, endangering the life OF
pedestrians and shouting that he was
not crazy. He was apparently ra-
tional yesterday afternoon when Drs
Weis and Howat examined him in JUS

their finding that he was turned lose

now under way is for the city coun-

This route viii lbe along Broadway
and up to that point the company has
its right of way. Here connections will
be made with the Gary & Interurban
railway, where passengers will be
hauled uptown Transfers from one
line to the other, available in either
direction, will be issued and a scent
fare to any part of the south end will
be the rule.

that once the franchise is granted the

PAID NO
ATTENTION

Despite Mayor Becker's proclamation
which he issued the first of this month.
warning the people of Hammond
against maddogs in Hammond and urg-
ing the muzzling of all brutes running
at large more dogs are running
around unmuzzled than muzzled. The
proclamation was to be in effect for
thirty days, to allow enough time to
await any developments.
If the police were to start out to-
morrow morning to shoot every un-
muzzled dog coming within the range
of their guns, the canine population
would be practically exterminated.
During the first two weeks the po-
lice killed more than a score of un-
muzzled dogs, but since then there
have been reports of any unmuzzled
dogs killed. One brute was killed
this morning.

matter which was TO be aired before
Judge Johnson a Valparaiso on Tues

settled and that nothing now stands in
the way of an early completion of the

of satisfaction, and Crown Point citi-
gems and those living in the vicinity
