GREEK
AMUCK
At GARY

Firing five shots from his revolver,
point blank at Officer Toney valone OF
the Gary police station, one of them
grazing the officers head. VIM Stech
a Greek was arrested last night near
$50 jefferson street after he had been
acting in a suspicious manner for sew
eral nights past
The attention OF Chief Martin to thu
case was brought by Paul J. Carbon
proprietor of the Gary Candy company
on Seventh avenue and who resides at
$50 Jefferson street. For several nights
past Mr.. Carbon has noticed a strange
man lettering around his home In the
morning Mr. Carbon would find candy
and fruit on a shelf on the milk bottle
the rear porch.
Leaves Candy and Fruit.
Mr. Carbon was unable TO account for
the strange actions of the man and
finally when he and Mrs. Carbon be-
came alarmed, he called the attention
of the police. Last night Chief Martin
dispatched Officer Toney valone to
Jefferson street to watch About eight
o'clock Stech came along and placed
some candy and letter written IN
Greek on the rear porch. AS soon as
the fellow saw the officer he drew his
revolver and opened fire. The officer
also fired three shots, one of the bullets
striking Stech in the side OF the head.
but the wound was not serious. The
officer grappled with Fetch and as soon
as he had emptied his revolver. he was
placed in irons and was brought to the
police station. Stechs officer wound
was dressed by DR. Craig.
VIII Translate Letter.
Chief of Police Martin will have the
letter translated which Stech left on
the window sill last night and the fruit
and candy will be examined to see II
there is any poison in it. Mr. and Mrs
Carbon give motive for Stechs
strange actions. although they are OF
the opinion that 1t may have been a
black hand plot to poison Mrs. Carbon
or their children.
Mr.. Carbon stated to a TINES reporter
this morning that he had never seen
Stech before and knew no possible mo-
tive for his actions. Mr.. Carbon and
family moved to Gary from st. Paul
about year ago.
The police working on the case
and Stech is being held at the police
| station awaiting developments.

HURDLE RACE WON BY YALE, WITH HARVARD
 SECOND AND THIRD

New Haven, May 19-Doubt as to the actual determination of the points in the low hurdle race at the Yale Harvard dual meet here last Saturday is cleared up in a letter received at Yale from William F. Garcelon, grad uate treasurer of the Harvard A. C., and a member of the Yale-Harvard Cup Committee. The letter is ad- dressed to Professor William Lyon Phelps of the committee for Yale and is to the effect that Yale should be awarded first place in that event, and Harvard second and third places. The letter says:
 "I have interviewed all the Harvard members of the Yale-Harvard Zip Committee and find that they are un- animous in the opinion that the points in the low hurdle race in the games of May 13, 1911, should be counted as determined by the real race, in which Yale won first and Harvard second and third. This, I believe makes the total score of the games 59 1-2 points to A 1-2. There would be no satis- faction to either Harvard or Yale in having the points counted which were not really won.''
 Doubt as to the event was due to a mishap at the starting of the race. The starters pistol missed fire, but the men got away and were nearly to the first hurdle when recalled by shot from the starters pistol. The Yale men dropped out of the race halfway, but the Harvard men 1oafed on to the finish. The race then was run over at the suggestion of MT. Gar celon.

0VINCTON MAY
 TAKE PART IN
 SPEED CONTEST
Unique Race Planned For Fastest Flying Machines in This
 Country

Earle l.. Ovington, the first man to fly in the city of Bridgeport, will probably be one of the principal com petitors in the first real speed race for aeroplanes ever held in this coun- try. Capt. Thomast Scott Baldwin, Thomas Sopwith, the English aviator, and probably representatives of Cur tiss and Wright will also compete in the race.
 The affair Is to be held in the vii cinity of New York city and the pro- motors plan to hang up prizes of $5,OOO $3,O00 and $1,00O for first, second and third. The entrants will receive not a cent of guarantee or expense. To get any return, they must win a prize. Capt. Baldwin claims speed of so miles an hour for his flyer. Sopwith has fast monoplane and Ovington is credited with having the fastest Bler- tot flyer On this side of the water. It has a known speed of over 70 miles an hour and it's owner claims it can hit up 90 without difficulty under fair conditions.
 The "baby Wright flyer is known to be of tremendous speed, due to it's small wing surface. The Curtiss peo- pie also put out a fast machine for racing purposes. The object of the contest will be to determine whether or not there are any American flyers capable of putting up the immense speed of some of the European ma chimes

Joseph Hull, student of civil en- gineering, committed suicide in his room at 368 East 158 tn street, New York, yesterday afternoon by taking cyanide of potassium. He left a let ter, which was evidently written after he had taken the fatal draught. It read:
 ''I have often argued that the in- efficient and useless should be elimi- mated from society. I am simply practicing what I preach"
 After the signature another line read:
 "I would like my sister to have all my clothes, pictures and other belong ings"
 At the bottom of the page, written in a hand evidently nervous and trembling were the lines which read:
 "12:45-I am not afraid. I am glad of what I have accomplished. This K. O. M. does not give pain.'
 The young man worked for P. B. Spencer at the Harlem River station of the New York Central Railroad and studied at night. He was 20 years old.
 From letters found in his room by Coroner Schwannecke it was learned that Hull had an uncle in Alabama. who wrote him on the subject of the marriage of the young mans father.

JACOBY OPENS NEW
 STORE ON BROAD STREET

The fact that his first customers still patr 1ize his establishment is given by Frank Jacoby as one of the best recommendations of his enter prise. Frank Jacoby has been list ed among Bridgeports merchants since 1894 when he first opened his store in the Smiths Theatre build ing. By judicious buying he secured offerings for the public which, no other small merc chant could touch, building up a following which have from year to year patronized his es- tablishment. With the expanse of his trade the quarters in the theatre building were outgrown. His next move was to 1866 Main street When he moved the same patronage and more, came with him. By catering to all classes and sendQg all away satisfied, the name "Jacoby'' has be- come a by-word for good values in many a home, not only in Bridgeport but in all the suburban towrs.
 Last Spring with the increased bus room, MT. Jacoby began looking around for a larger and better place. Noting that the trend of business in the center of the city was going into Broad street, his practiced eye and keen foresight lit upon the store at 1083 Broad street in the Hincks & Johnson building, opposite the post office. The removal from the Main street store to the Broad street es- tablishment was a matter of weeks. On July 15, the new establishment was opened. In every way does the new store surpass any of MT. Jaco- by's former business houses. More room space, more display counters, better light and a better array of goods, makes his store seaond to none in the city.
 Frank Jacoby makes a speciality in ladies' and gentlemen's outittings. For the gentlemen there are the swagger cuts in suits for this spring and summer, separate trousers, hats, underwear and neckwear. The boys and youths are also looked after.
 Here the ladies can find almost ev- erything in women's apparel. There is a noted craze this season for pongee coats-Jacoby has them in all sizes all. Silken, linen and serge coats are always the go-they also are to be found here. Then there are voile lawn messaline dresses, soft light and just right for spring and summer wear. The millinery department is we'll stocked, while 8 beautiful display of marabout is shown. A speciality is made of shirt waists. many bargains attracting the attention. Silk and heatherbloom Petticoats are also shown. Those little tots, just out of their swaddling clothes must also be looked after. At Jacoby's there IS a complete line of pretty little dress es and suits for the little girls and hobby suits for the future young men.
 The establishment maintains a competent tailor all repair work be- ing done free of charge. The stors
