DOCTORS DECIDE 1HAIl
WOMAN IS INSANE
Aftermath of Bebroff Case
Results in Finding by
Medical Court.

Mrs. Dora Bebroff's action yesterday
morning when she slapped Abe Marcus
while the latter was in the synagogue
on Indiana avenue has resulted in a
trial for her insanity. A commission
of three-Drs. w. d. Weis, T. w. Ober-
lin and DIR. A. Hoffman-gave their
opinion to Justice Frank Prest that the
woman was insane, but Justice Prest,
in answer to the demands of the wo-
mans friends, will have a re-heartng
of the case some time this week or
next. The woman was released from
the hospital this morning apparently
we'll. AT the hospital she seemingly
suffered from nothing more than an
aggravated case of hysteria.
The charges of insanity against the
woman were preferred by Sam Abel
man, the president of the Jewish So
ciety in Hammond. His term of office
expires next Sunday.
Any one knowing the rigid orthodox
custom relative to the admittance of
women to the religious services real
ICES that Mrs. Bebrof, who is herself
of the orthodox Jewish faith. commit
ted a serious breach in entertaing the
building and aggravated the profan-
ity by disturbing the peace. On the
strength of this and her subsequent
hysterical action, Sam Abelman based
his charge of insanity against her.

COMPANY
GETS BUSY

The Eastern Illinois Traction COM
pany affiliated with the Hammond.
Whiting & East Chicago Electric Rail-
way company, will tomorrow begin the
work of constructing the Dolton, Riv-
erdale and Harvey branch.
Manager Green of the Green line
made the positive statement today that
work would begin tomorrow. The
material for switches and turnouts and
the other things necessary for the con-
struction of the line are on the ground
and a large crew of workingmen will
begin to lay the track tomorrow.
Manager Green said, Il have been
telling the people of Hammond repeat
edly that the work of constructing this
line would begin in thirty days, but
unavoidable delays prevented this.
Il then made up my mind that I
would say nothing more about our
plans until we were ready to begin
work. Today L can say that wv are
ready to begin work and the men will
start in tomorrow
Is Welcome News.
This will be welcome news to the
people of Hammond, who realize that
the construction of this line will mean
the opening of a large and ,populous
territory to the mercantile establish
ments of Hammond.
1t is estimated that a population of
at least $4,000 people who have been
unable to have access to the stores
theaters and other enterprises eof Ham
mond will now make this city their
trade center.
Another matter of great Importance
is that the building of this line win
open large labor market to the in
dustries of Hammond that has never
been available before
One business man said today The
next census will probably show that
Hammond has no more than $4,000 in
habftants. but the fact should not be
overlooked that the village of West
Hammond has a population of 5000,
and that this new traction line makes
! population of $4,000 more people
tributary to Hammond.
Manager Green said tht fifty feet of
the property belonging to Chas. Mey-
ers and located at the foot of Sibley
street had been purchased so that the
new line could avoid sharp turn in
going from Sibley street to One Hun
