and robbed of $50 while he was walk
ing down the Michigan Central tracks

had guns. who ordered him to throw
up his hands They then took from
him a check amounting to $500
The victim of this affair then noti-
fed his foreman of the robbery. and
as the holdup occurred on Saturday
night 1t was possible to stop payment
on the check.
In the meantime the three men went
to the saloon of Herman Teichner- In
the Standard Steel Car district and
passed the check, even though it was
not endorsed. This makes Teichner the
loser as result of the affair Teich-

TWO SUBDIVISIONS
ARE PUT ON MARKET
Desirable Lots Are Being
Snapped UP in Different
Parts of City.

Two new subdivisions have been
placed on the market in Hammond
within the past few days One is the
property of the Hammond Realty COM
pany along May street between Car
roll street and Calumet avenue.
This property is located in a sec
ton of the city that is developing rap
idly, and the lots are offered for sale
are especially desirable. In fact, the
lots are among the few that are left
in the great east end of Hammond be-
tween the Erie tracks and the Stand
ard Steel Car companys property.
In approximately the same locality
Gostlin. Meyn & Co. have three blocks
of property from Joseph o. Morris and
will place 1T on the market at once.
This property. however. extends from
Calumet avenue to Taper avenue and
from the alley south OF Hart street to
Merrill avenue There Is considerable
frontage on Calumet avenue which Is
to be sold out at bargain prices.
The opening of these new sub-divis-
ions is expected to have a Statutory eff
feet on the up-buiIding of the east
side The sale of property in this sec
ton Of the city has been very extensive
and it will naturally be followed with
great building activity.
In view of the fact that lots in Home
wood have just about been sold out II
is expected that the next territory to
be developed as residential district
will be that on either side of Calumet
avenue.

Whist and Skat Are Now
Tabooed in Hammond
Saloons.

Card playing in the saloons. and
chance cards, in cigar stores, barber

things which In the past week have

The ruling out of the cards is the re-
suit of an agreement among the Ham

evade any trouble by such a proceed
ure. The tabooing of the chance cards
is the result of an order issued by Chief
of Police Peter Austgen.

PRIORITY
QUESTION
TAKEN UP
Gary Traction Lines Are
Having It Out in the Lake
Superior Court Today and
New Legal Phase Is Pre-
sented by Lawyers.

me suit OF the Gary and Interurban
Railway company vs. the Gary and
Southern Railway company has been
on trial in Judge Virgil s. Refers
court since yesterday afternoon. and 1t
is expected that 1t will take until Sat
urday.
The case is one involving the ques-
ton of the priority of rights of the
railroads on that portion of Broadway
south of the Little Calumet river.
The Gary and Southern railroad Sc
cured franchise from the county COM
missioners on that portion of Broad
way from the Little Calumet river,
southwark, to Crown Point.
After this franchise was granted a
large amount of territory south of the
Little Calumet river was taken into
the corporate limits of Gary Just
prior to the date of the expiration of
the Gary and Southern franchise an
EFFORT was made by that company to
build the line from the river to the
new corporation line. but the Seaman
interests were thwarted in this plan
by the Gary police force.
Later the city council granted the
Gary and Interurban railroad a fran.
chise to the southern limits of the
city. The Gary and Interurban also
attempted to build the line southwark
to the Ridge road. but were stopped by
temporary restraining order Sc
cured at the instance of w. H. Seaman
As the matter now stands both the
Gary and Interurban and the Gary and
Southern are restrained from proceed
ing with the construction of the line
on South Broadway. The Gary and
Southern claims priority of right to
a franchise on this street. This 10 the
matter that is up for consideration
