May HURT GARY
PUBLIC BUILDING
Congressman Crumpacker Argues
That Governments Ruling Should
Not Affect Gary's Structure

Since then, however. an i~nterpreta-
tion Of the term. necessary projects"
has been received from h committee.
The rule that will be aid down is that
wherever the postal receipts of a town
exceed a certain amount the PROPOSE
tion for a new postofice or a federal
building In that town will be considered
a necessary project" and will receive
consideration.
While no hard and fast limit of re-
CURED postal receipts has been fixed by
the committee in order to bring the
| propositions under the head of "neces-
| sary projects" there is a general I'M
Outstanding that. for the state. of In
diana. annual receipts of $4,000 or
| sac, 900 must be shown. In less thickly
| populated states the limit of required
receipts will be placed lower. If the
limit suggested for indian is adopted
several of the pending public building
bills for indians will fail to receive con-
sideration because the town it is pro-
posed to beneft can not show postal re-
ceipts SUFFICIENT to entitle them to pub
lie buildings.
The list of fourteen Indiana public
building measures pending before the
committee is as follows.

it represents the north side and more
members are coming in at each meet
ing.
Despite the fact that past communi-
cations nave either gone unnoticed by
the board or were merely fled, the as
ISOLATION decided last night to address
further communications to the board
in regard to needs for the north side.
OF the matters taken up last night
the following received considerable dis
cussion:
WANT BETTER SERVICE.
The association feels that the board
of public works ought to take up the
matter OF securing better transport
alton facilities from the South Shore
| line. 1t was suggested that the COM
pany run two cars in the morning and
two in the evening directly between
| Indiana Harbor and Hammond. thus
eliminating the loss of time that is
| created by the transfer.
The board of public works will be
asked TO condemn the old brick side
walk on Holman street. between Riv-
err street and the E., J. & E. railroad
tracks.
ACTION CARRIAGE QUESTION.
Probably the most important topic
for the was tnaI gettinS cledH-
err alleys and a better enforcement OF
the regulating the dumping
of garbage. 1t was the sentiment oil
the association last night that the a
ministration enforce this ordinance, ant
this sentiment was voiced by those who
are themselves violators of the or
dinance. AS the situation now stands
the alleys are vile and dirty, and eveI
- rovbaOe hnyaS were ~S1nnli0d tn,
offal would be permitted to lay a Ions
time before it is hauled away.
The board of public works will ais
be requested to order a street ligh
placed on the Fort Wayne ~railroa'
crossing on Gostlin street.
ORGANIZATION A LIVE ONE.
The attendance last night was a goo
one. and a number of applications 70
admission to membership were read
The spirit of the association at 1t
: meeting last night proved that 1t is
. live one and that 1t promises OF b
a factor in the civic life of Hammond
and. furthermore. hat politics will nc
be a factor in its actions or determine
tons.

in the past to improve the north side

RIOTOUS SESSION
YESTERDAY In
REICHSTAG
GERMAN SENATOR'S PLEA FOR
A6soLUTIoN sTIRs THE WRATH
OF SOCIALISTS, WHO PROCEED
TO MAKE DEMONSTRATION.

Berlin, Feb. 3.-Riotous scenes &C.
Cured today in the reichstag during
the debate on the army budget, the
estimates submitted by the kaisers
officials being bitterly opposed by the
socialists.
Herr yon Gutenberg, a conservative
member, precipitated the riot by max
ing plea fer an absolute government
The angry socialists set up the cry
of Down with absoIutism," and shook
their fists in the speakers face. A
scene OF wild disorder ensued. and it
was a long time before order could be
restored.
Won Oldenberg's plea for absolutism
was startling and is bound to precipi-
tate a crisis in the reichstag, because
It is believed he but voiced the kai-
ser's wishes. h |
In urging the reicAstag members to
pass the army budget without further
delay Won Gutenberg declared the kali
ser should have unlimited power to
suspend the German constitution at
his pleasure and rule absolutely as he
saw fit.
This statement brought forth jeers
from the socialists, it's revolutionary
character being too strong for some
of Won Oldenberg's own colleagues.
Won Gutenberg said:
If his imperial majesty, the kaiser.
sends command to dissolve the
reichstag, the deputies ought to obey
the decree of their royal sovereign
without question"
This was too much for the oppo
sition. Stormy scenese ensued. Ia
bles and desks were overturned and
the socialists began chanting, in uni
son, Down with absolutism," and re-
fused to stop their shouts.
When he could be heard again, Won
Gutenberg made bad affair worse by
shouting that the kaiser and til4 army
ruled Germany, not the reichstag. The
session broke up almost in dis rder.

VERY LONG RECORD
HILTON G. DGE-lNGRAM CASE
GOES TO SUPREME COURT
a FOR THIRD TIME.

Clerk du Bignon, of the Glynn su-
perior court, yesterday forwarded to
the Georgia supreme court the record
OF appeal in the case of the Hilton
& Dodge Lumber company VS.. Henry
Ingram, which makes the fourth time
that this case has been appealed to
the high tribunal. In all the case has
already been tried in the Glynn su-
perior court five times.
The record forwarded yesterday was
a yoluminous one, III fact it is said
to be the largest ever forwarded to
the supreme court from Glynn county
containing in all 265 closely typewrit-
ten pages.
This case is well known to the peo-
ple of Brunswick, as it has been tried
in the superior court with regularity
for the past several years. The orig
NAL case was a suit against the Hilton
& Dodge Lumber company for inJur-
les received by Ingram. Both sides
have won the case in previous trials.

BLIND TIGERS
HAD 4 BUSY DAY
IN POLICE COURT
TWO WHISKY SELLERS CONVICT
ED AND MUST SERVE SIXTY
DAY ON THE GANG.
Entire Day Was Consumed in Trial of
Four Others, But They viii Not Be
Completed Until Today--Many Spec
tators Present at Hearing.

Mayor Hopkins held a regular star
chamber session of the police court
yesterday, which lasted during the
entire day and was continued until
this morning.
The several negroes who were ar
rested Monday charged with selling
whisky were On trial. Many negroes
displayed interest in the case and the
police courtroom was crowded with
spectators during the entire day
Though the court worked on the
cases for several hours, only two of
the defendants were tried. These were
D. B. Pyles and Newton Miller. Both
Of the negroes were represented by
attorneys and it ttok considerable
time to dispose of the cases. After
hearing all of the evidence the mayor
arrived at the decision that both the
negroes were guilty and he sentenced
them to serve sixty days on the chain
gang without fine.
The cases against the other four
negroes were taken up after the
court convened after the noon recess
and the entire afternoon was consum-
ed, without any of the other cases
being completed. The court will meet
at 10 o'clock this morning and con-
tinue on the cases.
Practically the same evidence is
being used in all of the cases and it
is more than likely that all of the
negroes will be convicted. 1t appears
that all OF the violators were cargh;
by Matt Goodbread, white man, who
was added as a special police officer
on Monday. From the evidence
brought out in the trials yesterday
he bought whisky from some OF the
negroes himself and also gave q negro
woman the money with which to pur-
chase it, In order TO have more than
one witness.
The cases have attracted more than
ordinary attention in the city and
the result of the trials today will no
doubt draw another full house to the
mayors matinee.

HIGH OFFICIAL
Of UNITED FRUIT
COMPANY IN CITY
j. C. HALL, MANAGER OF THE
CHARLESTON DIVISION, HERE
ON BUSINESS TRIP.
t3e Talks Interestingly of the Enorm-
I3sus Fruit Business Done by His
Company and Gives Some Figures
Which Are Really Startling.

John c. Hall. Of Charleston, mana
ger of the Charleston division of the
United Fruit company, is in the city,
being mere on business connected with
| has company, which is probably the
largest concern of the kind in exis-
tence, during, as it does, an immense
fruit business 4etween the United
States and the various fruit countries.
Mr.. Hall was seen by representa-
tive of The News last nigat, and when
questioned as to his visit to this port.
he stated that he was here merely
on business connected with his COM
pany, but in the course Of the con-
versation he gave the reporter some
idea of the enormous fruit business
carried on by the United Fruit ccm-
pany.
While the bulk of the business is in
bananas, the company deals in fruits
of all kinds. In discussing bananas
| Mr.. Hall stated that there were 275
different varieties of this fruit alone
His company imEOrts every six
months an average of 100000
lunches of bananas, which are trans
ported over various railroads from the
ports of the company to all sections.
In all the company uses total of
! 10000 cars annually in distributing
! the fruit.
| Engaged in this business t e COM
! pany uses 1870 steamships. using the
| 1rf1 ~ Int i-I-
! phia, Baltimore, Charleston. Mobile.
/ and New Orleans. In the employ of
the company there are $4,000 men.
, The company does business with a
, total of fourteen foreign countries and
! has ships plying to dozens of ports.
Jamaica probably leads all other
sections in tie growing of bananas.
/ The United handles from there alone
100000 punches of bananas semi
annually, and about 4U,000,000 from
several other Central American coun-
tries.
Mr.. Hall is thoroughly posted on
the cultivation OF bananas and vari-
Gus other fruit and he talks inter
estingly on the subject. He has been
! in the business for many years and
has made a number of trips to the
foreign ports of the company.
Just what business Mr.. Hall is
transacting in Brunswick is not
known, but it is understood that the
company is seeking another port be-
tween Charleston and Mobile, and it
may be that some of the ships of the
concern will later step at this port,
though the Charleston manager did
not have anything to say along that
| line last night.

PACKERS ANSWER
BIG BOYCOTT BY
RAISING PRICES
A BIG INCREASE MADE IN NEW
YORK AND OTHER LARGE
CITIES YESTERDAY.
Chicago Packers Made Good the Prom
ise to Answer the Protest With an
lncrease-To Control Meat Supply
in This Big Country of Ours.

New York, Feb. 3.--The Chicags
packers have met the meat boycott by
the people of this country by advanc,
ing the beef prices.
Scattered skilfully among fifteen
quotations for the three chief grades
of five classes of beef food today's
figures showed net increase of .0033
upon each pound of meat sold. On it's
face this apparently infinitesimal ad-
dition to the general average amounts
to little, but carries into the total OF
the packers day it reaches into thou
| sands of dollars.
Upon the one hundred cars of beef
now in the New York railroad yards,
to say nothing of meat in shops and
cold storage, the advance added to
the price means $4,000. When it is
considered that this increase applies
only to the meat carried in transit for
/ one New York day, the average slate
pencil can readily find the great total
that will come from all the other cit
les in the United States, to say MOTH
| of the beef actually stored in Chi
cago.
