head on collision between northbound

freight No. 81 at North Hayden near

junk after the collision and the cars
made kindling wood.

PUMP IS
THE BONE Of
CONTENTION

The Hammond city council, COM
posed Of contractors, tradesmen and
merchants, found itself up against it
last night when it was confronted with
the question of ratifying a contract
for the purchase of a $4,000, ,000-gallon
pump. The terms ross-conpound,
triple expansion, pressure, etc, had lit
tie meaning to the city fathers, and
to avoid any difficulties, the matter
was referred to the water committee.
This committee is composed of Messrs.
Pascaly, Lauer and Eggers.
The contract that the board of pub
lie works submitted for ratification last
night was for a $1,000, 900 gallon cross

STRIKE SITUATION
IN A NUTSHELL.

The strike leaders are hopeful that
the Hart, Schaffner & Marx trouble
will be amicabIy settled within two
or three days. They expect that
when the temper of the strikers has
spent itself they will vote to accept
the compromise agreed upon by the
representatives of the labor unions
and Mayor Busse's committee and
Hart, Schaffner & Marx firm.
A serious difficulty arises in an
other direction. Firms that have
no alliance with Hart, Schaffner &
Marx, but which employ $4,000 gar
ment workers, have announced their
refusal to abide by the Hart, Schaff-
ner & Marx agreement.
If the objecting firms should elect
to stand in their present position.
the result would be that while 10000
workers will return to the service
of Hart, Schaffner & Marx, there
will still be $4,000 employees of other
firms waging aswarfare as bitter as
that which has been fought durin 6
the past several weeks.

TO Be TRIED
The NEXT

One by one the disturbers who made
the election in Gary disgrace to that
city are being punished for their actfvi-

Clyde Hunter on the day of the election
was picked up by one of Sheriff
Grants deputies on the charge of inn
personating an officer and will be tried
in the Lake Superior Court for that
offense.
The arrest of Oleson grew out of the
strong arm methods" that were used
by the democrats in Gary when they at

force and the use fthe police depart
