JOHNNY
SCRATCHES
HIS HEAD
Here's a Proposition That
Causes j. E. Fitzgerald to
Wonder; Is President of
Hammond Auto Club and
Not a Member.

John E. Fitzgerald is in a peculiar
position. He is president of the Ham
mond Automobile Owners association
and he is not even a member of the
organization.
Fitzgerald is between the devil and
the deep blue sea. He wants to be a
member of the local automobile club
the worst way. In fact he is one of the
promoters of the plan to organize.
But as soon as Mr.. Fitzgerald joins
the organization he will become it's
president. and he says that he positive
ly cannot accept that office. Mr.. Fftz-
gerald is one of the most enthusiastic
automobilists in Lake county
During the summer season he makes
on an average of three trips q week to
Cedar Lake, where he and hts sfaamily
and friends eat chicken dinners and en-
Joy the exhilaratfng country air In
addition to these short trips Mr. -Fftz-
gerald is quite tourist when he can
spare the time to make a trip of sever
al days
Then He Balks.
But when it comes to being the
president of an automobile club the
genial John E. rebels He appreciates
the fact that his friends wanted to
compliment him with the honor of be-
ing the first president of the Hammond
organization, but he positively will not
accept.
So meeting of the Hammond Auto
mobile association will have to be held
in. the near future. At this meeting
the weighty question that will have to
be settled will be, Shall we have a
presidentless association, or a Fftzger-
aldless one?"
1t will have to be decided one wav
or another. Mr.. Fitzgerald says there
are lots of men that are just as capable
as he Of holding the office which has
been forced upon him and he wants one
of these other men selected

City Council Takes Up a
Number of Important
Measures.

Hammond last night, at the meet
ing of the city council, annexed an
other strip Of land, little more than
half a mile in length and three hum
dred and fifty feet in width.
The annexed territory is the pro-
posed extension of Calumet avenue
from the city limits south to the
Little Calumet river. Like the ex-l
tension of Holman street recently.
the action of the council last night
is compromise between the city and
the farming community south of the
city on the question of annexing the
whole territory
WHAT 1T WILL MEAN.
The action is taken to give the city
control of the highway in the matter
of regulating the Northwestern Trap-

this route to come into Hammond froha.

PROPERTY OWNERS
APPEAR BEFORE BOARD
demonstrate Against the
Boards Proposed
Improvement.

number of Waltham street property
owners appeared before the board Of
pubic works this morning to remon-
strate against the boards proposed i'm
provement in Waltham street from the
c Il. & l. tracks to Hart street.
The board has taken the matter under
advisement until April 20. 1t seems
that some of these property owners
labor under the impression that the
board can take money from the GEN
eral fund and condemn straight through
from the Erie tracks to Calumet ave
nue., instead of connecting with Hart
street. This, however. is not in the
boards power and consequently the
property owners take the stand that
they do not want any improvements
whatever.
Plans and specifications for the i'm
provement of Lincoln avenue from
Reese avenue to One Hundred and
Nineteenth street were adopted, remon-
strances to be heard on April l.

wereNa common sight on the streets.

STRIKE RUMORS
PREVALENT

Although there are constant rumors
that there is further trouble at the
Standard Steel Car company, the off,
cials of the company deny that this is
true
One report was to the effect that the
men would go out this morning and
another that they will go out Satur-
day night In some circles. however.
these stories are not given credence.
Justice Kaske, who Is close to the
situa ton, says that there is a strong
sentiment in the Standard district
against a strike and that he does not
belieev that another will be called He
was willing to admit. however that
anything is possible with the agftators

An inquiry amony the officials of the

is any trouble in prospect.

After telling his auditors something
of the origin of the controversy that
has been waged between himself and
Dr. Simmons, DR.. Lydston then entered
upon mastery defense of his posi-

He stated that he had been ruled off
from the program of the Mississippi

the influence of DR.. Simmons and his
medical ring, but he claimed that he
had held an Independent meeting which
was attended by practically all of the
doctors In the society.
Why Simmons Fears Him.
He stated that he did not see whv

financially responsible for his state
