MAY CAST BOARD
INTO OUTER DARKNESS

The world wide tendency to kick the
stuffings out of long established politi-
cal institutions such as the desire to
run the refgning dynasty out of China
and TO change tho government of
Tripoli, has found root in Gary and the
upshot may be that the board of public
safety may go down into history as
having been overtoppled contemporane-
ously with men and things elsewhere
Alderman NJ. n. Castleman, the sterling
representative of the common pee-pul.
has announced that the board of safety
is to abolished.
For the past few nights the fifth
ward statesan and friend OF the plebis-
cite has been lowering around the city
hall telling his intention. Instead of
his trusty plug of Battle Axe cheming
tobacco he is now carrying around in
left hip pocket the abolition ordinance
itself. H H. Highlands. E. N. White
and Frank Borman composed the board.
Borman is the only member of the board
who has not experienced the sensation
OF being indicted so the alderman s
threats to have the jobs abolished is at
the present time falling like water on
the back of a Miller pin tail duck. The
next session of the council win be held
next Monday night at which time the
abolition ordinance is scheduled to
come up.

signed the statement but that she had
been tricked into it by the female de-
tective Il is possible that the detec
tive, or investigator, she called her
self, did not tell Markham how she got
the statement signed but those who
know the circumstances have some
mental reservations about this.
Under these circumstances it is not
surprising that the male detective, who
had been employed by Markham at
considerable expense, was not put. on
the state. Rittenhouse did not care to
risk the chance of having more
despfcable tricks revealed to the jury.
SO the casual observer the defense
has fallen fiat both in its effort 70

upon the little girl and that the whole
prosecution was inspired by the Con-
tractors Association of Lake County.

Checks Easily Negotiable.

The swindlers cashed some of the
checks at saloons. At clothing stores

Of all descriptions.
Use the Old Methods.
The methods employed were the same
as those used at South Chicago five or
six years ago where a gang opearted
and secured thousands of dollars. They
were not captured for two years. Mer-
chandise that they bought was thrown
under side walks and in alleys and be-
lieving that the same methods will be
used in Gary Chief Martin has directed
the police to keep look out on thrown
away purchases
The capture of Moran came about
following the discovery bv Acker and
Schmidt the Broadway clothiers, that
they had received a bad check. Carl
Schmidt remembered that he had re-
ceived this some minutes before from
a stranger who had purchased an over
coat. Supply Chief Martin with a
meagre description that man with j

Whether or not justice Will be done
depends upon the jury. The many mis-
carriages OF justice in important
criminal cases makes the final verdict a
matter OF serious doubt. TT all de-
ponds upon the jury" is the often re-
pea ted remark Of the attorneys for the
state
II one juryman could be reached the
whole jury might be hung with the re-
suit that another trial would have to be
held and the whole terrible story Of the
violation of the innocence of little
girl would have to be retold
But the state is confident. The state
ment of the defense that it would show
that the whole prosecution was inspired
by the Contractors Association of Lake
County on account of labor difficulties
did not materialize. Not one witness
was put upon the stand to prove this as
sertion.
The defense even baked at risking

tons alleged connection with the case.
Lack of Harmony.
While Attorney S. *. Markham does
not appear in the case as an attorney
for the defense it is understood that
| he took care of the preliminaries.
There is the suggestion that Attorney
| Rittenhouse and Attorney sMarkman
have had some friction in the trial OF
this case.
| 1t is said that Markham laid the
plans to get the signed statement from
little Evelyn Florin exonerating Fin
neran from all blame. He is said "a

who admitted the stand that she
was paid by Markham.
But Markham did not tell Attorney
| Rittenhouse how the detective got this
statement. Rittenhouse, thinking thai
Evelyn Florin had signed the state

the car is resting against the side of

from falling to the ground. The high
supports however have sunken realty
and are still settling. but 1t is believed
that a considerable portion of the

weighs ninety tons and the bridge and
car together weigh $50 tons. but 1t is
