CASE OF SMALLPOX IS
FOUND IN HAMMOND
Wife of Lineman Attacked
by Disease, and Quaran-
tine Is Established.

A case of smallpox was discovered in
Hammond today and a strict quaran-
tine was at once established. The case
was that of Mrs. VIM. Angus the wife of
an employe of the Northern Indiana Gas
G. Electric Co.
She is the wife of a lineman employ
ed by the gas company. The case was
diagnosed by a Hammond physician and
his opinion has been concurred in by a
number of other doctors.
DR.. VIM F. Howatt stated today that
the people of Hammond have neglected
the matter of vaccination to degree
that would mage an epidemic a serious
one if 1t got started.
DIR. j. A. Graham stated that there are
cases of diptheria. measles and now
small pox is added to the list. He urges
the most strict quarantine to avoid the
spread of the disease. 1t is not believ-
ed that many people have ben exposed.

ALUMNI SET DATE FOR
ITS ANNUAL BANQUET
Prof. Judd of University of
Chicago Will Be Speaker,
of the Evening.

There was a meeting of the Ham
mond High School Alumni association
last evenin at which it was decided to
hold the annual banquet June 8. The
speaker of the evening will be Profess
sor Judd. the head of the department
of education of the University of Chi
cago.
These banquets have always been
notable successes, and ii is expected
that the one which will be held four
weeks from Friday will be on a par
with the Others that have been held in
years past.
In addition to Prof. Judd there will
be number of local speakers The
banquet will cost 81 plate and the
sale of the tickets will begin at once
The officers of the association are
Henry Loveridge, president; Gertrude
Twiss, secretary, and James Rhind,
treasurer.

The fact that the case is going to
trial so promptly is due to a provision
of the statute which makes 1t neces-
sary to try the case not later than
twenty days after the action is begun.
The action was begun following the
making of an affidavit by Charles
Pitzele of East Chicago to the effect
that Chief of Police Lewis permitted
gambling in the city of East Chicago
and collected fees to which he was not
entitled.
In view of the fact that this case
will bring out great deal of the
evidence that resulted in the indict-
ment of Mayor A. G. Schlieker of East
Chicago and Chief of Police Lewis,
the outcome of the case will be ex-
ceedingly interesting.
The surprise is that there is a pro-
vision of the statute which makes it
impossible to invoke the laws delays.
The contest in this matter promises
to be a warm one, and 1T is believed
that before the trial is completed a
great deal will be known about al
legged corruption in East Chicago than
has never been made public.

f. S. BETz TO CONTINUE
FIGHT NO LONGER
Vacation of Johnson Street
Will Not Be Pressed in
Court.

The fight to prevent the closing of
Johnston street is ended. Before leav-
ing for West Baden today f. S. Betz in
formed W. II. Gostlifi of the firm Of
Gostlin. Meyn & CO. that he wanted tn ,
suit for the vacation Of Johnston street
withdrawn.
1t Is expected that in due time At
torney L. L Bomberger will be advis-
ed and that the case which Is now
pending in court will be dismissed. This
will end a matter which has been the
subject of great deal Of controversy
ever since the case was filed in the
Lake Superior court and THE TIMES
printed the first story of the attempt
that was made to close the street.
w. H. Gostlin said today. Hammond
has lost an addition to one ofsits best
industries as result of the agitation
against the closing of the street. Retz
told me before he left for West Baden
that It was useless to continue the fight
longer and that the suit had better be
withdrawn
large number of people on the
north side who are interested in this
matter are sorry taht Betz has been
Inconvenience and are sorry that the
possibility of having the Betz plant en-
larged has been endangered but they
are convinced that they have taken the
proper action.
One of the outcomes of the agitation
is an aroused public sentiment against
the vacation of streets. The, peopIe are
now watching their strets more iear
ously than ever before and any effort
to close thoroughfares will be as bit
terly fought as was the effort to close

RESTORE:
UNION To
STANDING

Following the arrest OF James Fin
neran, charged with a beastly crime
steps were taken among the electrical
workers of Hammond to re-organize
the union. The better element of the
workers expect to take hold of the or
ganization and restore it to its former
standing among the unions of the
county.
OF course the work is being done
quietly, for the reason that it is not
deemed advisable to make public the
plans of the re-or ganizers until the
project has been carried a little farther
towards a successful consummation.
One of the union men was inter
viewed this morning and had the fol-
lowing to say:
we know the electrical workers are
in bad with the people of Lake Co
They are in bad with the other unions
of the cities. The decent members
OF the union itself are opposed to the
way the affairs of the union have been
conducted.

MYSTERY
Of ATTACK
DEE:PENED
Was Engine Hostler Burned
With Acid or Was Kero-
sene Thrown on Him and
Lighted? Injuries of Vic
tim May Not Be Fatal.

Private detectives for the Indiana
Harbor Belt railroad are trying to
1athom an alleged plot which culminat-
ed last Sunday night when Toney
Alfaon an engine hostler for the Indi-
ana Harbor Belt railroad was rendered
unconscious by burns which he received
In a mysterious manner while at his
cork.
Alfaon who is an Italian is at ST..
Margaret's hospital. His injuries are
critical and apparently were caused by
an acid or kerosene which ignited when
he opened the door to the arebox of the
engine. If it was the latter, the throw
ing was timed so that the fluid would
strike him while the door to the fire box
was open.
Coal Gas May Have Ignited.
1t has been learned that AIfaon had
been warned to quit his work and go
out in sympathetic strike with the
maintenance or waymen who are still
out on the Indiana Harbor Belt and the
Western Indiana railroads. This fact
and Alfaon's statement that somebody
had thrown kerosene on him and ignit-
ed it with match are the basis for the
Investigation and search for the alleged
perpetrators. One explanation by
strikers that is being made is that
Alfaon forgot to start the blower before
opening the door to throw in more coal.
and that coal gas shot out and ignited.
There were two engines on the spur
leading 10 the old c. J. railroad house.
The engines stand there over night and
are cleaned and taken care of by the
hostlers over night. Alfaon had charge
of one, and a fellow countryman of tho
other. In addition two watchmen were
there. AS nearly as can be learned the
two watchmen were together talking
and the two hostlers who had been
talking together went each to their re-
spectiye engines. A minute later the
two watchmen and the other hostler
seemed to be terribly burned and suffer
ed intense pains. Before he lapsed in
to Inconsistencies, he said a man had
stepped up from behind. and poured
kerosene on him
