GOLOMBOS rs FREED

As was expected. the jury In the case
of Joe Golombos of Gary, charged with
the murder OF Paul Vitzay, returned a
verdict of not guilty and the defendant
was released.
Attorney Dan Moran prosecuted the
of the deceased. Attorneys d. E. Boone
and Clarence Bretsch appeared for the
defense.
The case of the state was greatly
weakened by the fact that the defend
ant was dismiss ed in the city court in
Gary. 1t is generally conceded that the
verdict is a just one.

Sues for $4,000.

Mike Kaput. through his attorneys,
George w. Jones. George Michaley and
J. Z. Westphal. has begun suit against
the Hammond, Whiting & East Chicago
Electric Railway company for $4,000
damages.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
the defendant entered the car on For
sythe avenue, East Chicago. and was
on his way to One Hundred and Forty
third street when he signaled for the
car to stop.
He charges that while he was light
ing the car was started and he was
thrown to the pavement. That the
damages he suffered are probably
worth $4,000 may be judged by the
fact that the accident resulted in a
traumatics contracture of the erector

GAS COMPANY THROWS OPEN
NICE PLACE FOR PUBLIC

In line with its weIl-known policy of
improving its service wherever possible
the Northern Indiana Gas & Electric
company has just thrown open to the
public an office in East Chicago.
The company was not actuated sole
ly by desire to improve its service
only where its business transactions
with the public are concerned, but
sought also to establish convenience
which would be accessible to the pub
lie at all times.
With this end in view they secured
quarters in the Friedman building,
which is at the corner of Forsythe and
East Chicago avenues. Very many of
the car lines intersect at this point,
which makes this corner one of the
most important, as far as traffic is
concerned. in that territory.
In order that the office may be . real
convenience. the company has installed
a telephone which is for the use of the
public free of charge, for calm within

Four wards Ina City.
AS city West Hammond is divided
mot four wards each ward to have two
aldermen. The First and Fourth wards

One Hundred and Fifty fourth street is
the dividing line between the north and
south sides, while Wentworth avenue
is the dividing line between the First
and Fourth wards and Lincoln avenue
for the Second and Third.
