APATHY IS
CAUSE FOR
INDIGNATION
East Chicago Councils At
tude Is Not at ALI Liked by
Taxpayers; Grave Situa-
ton Faces the City in
View of Pending Trials.
Especial to THE TIMEs.)

East Chicago. Ind. June 19.-There
Is a growing murmur in East Chicago
and Indiana Harbor. concerning what
is variously regarded as apathy the
part of the council and a deliberate
"stalling" for personal reasons, by
some of the aldermen, in the matter
OF preparing for the mergency that
will confront the Twin Cities. if the
case now pending against Mayor
Schlieker. goes against him.
The murmur has reached the stage
OF a clamor. and the people are asking
each other what it ali means
There was no quorum at the last
meeting of the city council Alderman
Burns has been awarded credit of re-
sponsibility for this fasco and the peo-
pie are now awaiting tonight's council
meeting with a degree of curiosity and
interest. seldom manifested in council
proceedings. There are those who arr
exceedingly DESTROYS to ascertain JUS
who If any will be the goats tonight
On the following men rests the re
sponsibility of a quorum or no quorun
at a time when the city is confronted
by the gravest situation it has ever
been called upon to face: First ward.
w. II. Olds. second ward. PaGl
Mysilwy; third ward. Joseph French:
fourth ward. Dan Varady. fifth ward.
Carl Asderson; sith ward. Ferdinand
Ketcik: seventh ward. John Calvin:
Aldermen at large. Thomas Buckley
Monroe r. Schock and James Burns
As the situation now stands Thomas
Phillips. the present controller who
would succeed TO the Office OF mayor
should Schlieker be removed While
* controller Mr.. Phillips has been
e,ainently satisfactory. there IS scare
" anyone but who would oppose him
m the capacity Of mayor. not because
81 any fault they have to nd with his
personality or character. but because
there is a well defined feeling that now
would Be a poor time to place the city
III the hands Of young man with al
nest no political experience. and com-
Daratively little business experience. IN
other words there is little il any doubt
that in case Mr.. Phillips should become
mayor. Schiieker would still be in con-
troll Of the situation as surely as he has
ever been.
Now the question is. to what extent
can Mayor Schlieker influence the mat
ter OF quorum at tonights meeting 4?
There seems little doubt that he is de-
sirous of allowing matters regarding
the question OF comptrollership. to re-
main in statu quo. If there is no meet
ing tonight. it will begin to look as
though the mayor still holds the whip
hand and that for some reason or
other. the aldermen are constrained to
do his bidding

JOBS WILL BE SHOOK
UP IN A WH|RL|G|G

Abolition of three jobs and the crea-
ton of two ones is some of the
legislation planned by the municipal
legislature of Gary for tonight's regu/
lar session.
Alderman Castleman will lead the
onslaught on the safety board and IL
he is successful III. H. Highlands, En-
met White and Frank Borman will be
without their safety commissioner
titles before many days arrive. 1t is
said that Castleman has the requisite
number of votes TO perform the cut
ting job.
Plans for increasing the park board
from three to We members may also
mature. However, each of the nine
aldermen has a candidate for the two
jobs some mathematics will have to be
used before the matter is settled.

questing permission to suspend the
tariffs proposing advances from March
Is until November l next, the rail
road officials contended that this
years business might show a falling
of of the revenues of 1910, which
would afford them an opportunity
again to ask the commission to con
slider an advance in rates, perhaps some
time late next autumn, when they
would be enabled to make a better
showing in support of the request
than they made in the recent cases.
Denial of the request was made in a
letter to President Brown, of the New
York Central, written by Commission
The letter says:
"After considering the reasons ad-
duced in support of this request, those
members Of the commission who are in
Washington are unanimously of the
opinion that it must be denied, and
the we must adhere to the report,
which clearly states the attitude of
this body toward the future.
"With respect to the suggestion
that in any future proceedings the
present record will not be available if
these tariffs are cancelled, it is proper
to observe that this proceeding was
instituted by the commission itself and
that the record is entirely subject to
its control either with respect to fur
