DOG KILLING BEGUN.
Especial to THE TIMES. }

East Chicago, June 15.-The cam
paign against the unmuzzled dog has
spread to East Chicago and Chief Leo
Mccormick is doing everything possible
to eliminate the menace against life
and health as represented by the dan
ger of hydrophobia.
The slaughter of the CANNES began
three days ago. since which time on an
average of thirteen a day have been
killed. Sergeant Mike German and Of
ficers Meyer Rybecki, Ed Shields and
Joe Lencioni are the squad which are
making life miserable for East Chicago
dogdom In Indiana Harbor Officers
Clyde Spencer and Gabriel Bedes are
performing a similar office, while Of
ficer Nick Meyers is doing the same for
Oklahoma.
Sergeant German, who is in charge
of the East Chicago squad. does not ap-
prove of the strap muzzles and advises
the wire ones He declares that if the
strap devices are placed loosely about
the dogs mouth. permitting him to
pant they are useless to prevent the
animal from Swapping. On the other
hand. it is the height of cruelty to
strap dogs jaws shut. as all but the
/ most thoughtless stupid are aware
/ For this reason the wire muzzles are
/ advised.
The police warn the dog-owning pub
! lie that any dog which is not properly
! muzzled viii be shot on sight.

SPLENDID
SHOWING
TIMES BUREAU.
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. June 15.-In point
of its wealth in railroads Lake county
Is now the first in the state of Indiana
The state board of tax commissioners
today announced the total railroad as
sessment valuation of Lake county and
it reaches the stupendous figure of
S17.3S2,667. Marion county is the next
in the list with a valuation of s11,676,-
S76
1t will be noticed that Marion coun-
tvs valuation is not more than two
thirds that of Lakes. 1t is proof of the
great railroad and Industrial develop
ment which the northern end of the
state has experiepced in the last few
years.
1t IS expected that Lake county's to-
tai valuation will be not less than $780,
100000 and makes it apparent that at
least one-quarter of it Is in the rail-
roads.
The large valuation in Lake county
will provide abundant funds for the
construction of schools, roads. bridges
and other important public works. The
railroads are taxed so much mile and
this shows that Lake county has a
larger mileage than any other county
in the state.

Crown Prince Frederick William was

escaped injury He was driving to
the home of DR.. Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg to call upon the chancellor when
his car struck the curb, smashing
wheel. The crown prince was throwl
to the sidewalk, but not with great
force. The chauffeur was thrown
out and, striking a lampost, was
slightly bruised. The crown prince
continued his trip in an ordinary cab,

TWO MORE
BITTEN BY
ANIMALS
Hammond Boys Attacked
by Dogs Yesterday; Muz-
zles Found to Be Mere
Makeshifts to Evade the
Law-Harbor Victim.

Two more victims of dog bites were
reported in Hammond yesterday, and
until 1t has been definitely decided
whether or not the animals were af-
hicted with rabies the victims Will live
in fear of hydrophoh:a.
The persons reported bitten yester-
day We're BERNARD Gillis. a boy of school
age residing at 7S3 Sohl street, and C.
Schultz, who resides on the north side.
In each Ease the victims were bitten in
the calf of the leg, the wound having
been severe enough to lacerate the
flesh
The dog which bit the Gllis boy wore
a wire muzzle, but it was large that
he had difficulty In opening his
mouth wide enough to grasp the calf
of the boys leg. The animal Is said to
belong to a neighbor of the ellis fam
lily. The boy went to the office of DR..
B. W. Chidlaw. who cauterized the
wound and took all necessary precau-
tion to prevent development of hydro
phobia He also suggested the killing
of the dog and it's brain sent to the
Pasteur Institute in Chicago for an
examination for signs of rabies.
The dog who bit Mr. Schultz is not
thought to have been mad. He was
known to be a rather vicious brute but
AIR. Schultz. too, will take all precau-
tions.
One death has already resulted In
Hammond because of a mad dog bite
Chief Peter Austgen said this morning
that a muzzle alone is no protection
against the killing of a dog If the muz-
gle is found to be ineffective.
Half OF the dogs running at large
although muzzled could bite If they
wanted to. and in many instances the
muzzle is merely a makeshift TO evads

TRAIN CREW
TWITS EDGAR
At CROSSING

The wrath of Z. F. Johnston, secre-
tary of the Hammond Business Mems
association, was aroused to white heat
yesterday afternoon when freight
train on the Chicago, Indiana & South
ern, at the Holman street crossing,
near the Simplex, held him and the
crossing for nearly fifteen minutes.
The traffic was blocked completely.
Mr.. Johnston tried to find the conduc-
tor and have the train cut. The train
men could not be found. however, until
the train passed by and then the crew
made annoying remarks at Mr. john
ston, who complained at the police sta
ton. and whether an action will be
made against the railroad is not known.

NEW POWER DEAL CLOSED?

in fact developed when one of the off,
cials of the Cudahy Packing Co. COM
planned of the poor power that was be-
ing furnished by the South Shore Line.
He was informed that after today the
Northern Indiana Gas x Electric Co.
would furnish the power for the COM
pany
1t is understood that this arrange
ment is made for the reason that the
power furnished by the Northern Indi-
ana Gas & Electric Co. is more reiia-
Bile.
The apparent discrepancy in the
stories is explained by the fact that IL
the Northern Indiana Gas & Electric
Co. has purchased the surplus power of
the South Shore line it will probably
take steps to make 1t more reliable for
manufacturing purposes.
The significance of the deal, if it is
made is that the controversy between
the city of Hammond and the Northern
Indiana Gas & Electric Co. will be end
ed for it was South Shore competition.

July first will be the greatest day IN
the history of the Chicago, Indiana &

first trains of this road will run into
Evansville. Ind.
Chicago and Indiana Harbor will be
the northern terminals and Evansville
will be the southern terminal. A road
that heretofore had its southern
terminal at Danville, Ill. a compare

The necessary track has been con-
structed and it only remains to he
opened for traffic. Schedules will be
arranged providing for through freight

But the real Importance of the move
from a strategic point of view, is the
fact that a traffic agreement has been
made by which freight from the Chi

HAMMOND TO BECOME
STATION ON c. |. & S.
Two Cities Expected to Con
tribute Literally to the
Roads Patronage.

HAMMOND may become station. on
the Chicago. Indiana & Southern rail-
road. So much business originates at
the crossing of the Gary & Interurban
railway line that the officials of the
road are considering the matter of
erecting a small depot. naming it Ham
mond and stopping all but the through
trains there.
In view OF the fact that Gary has no
north and south railroad and that the
c., l. & S. reaches territory that is not
reached by the Monon railroad. 1t is be-
lieved that both Hammond and Gary
would contribute to the patronage of
the road.
Eventually 1t is believed that the
Hammond station will become one of
the most important on the line. With
both Hammond and Gary using this
