Large Numbers Back to Work.
A Boston, Mass, dispatch says
A change for the better occurred in
many cities and towns and villages
of New England today when textile
mills employing an aggregate of $751;
900 persons resumed operations af-
ter a shutdown varying from eight
days to two weeks or more.
Curtailment of the production of
cotton goods will continue at a num-
Der of places, including Fall River,
until the raw cotton situation and
good market conditions further i'm

American Wooden Co., which con-
trolls thirty mills in New York state
and New England, says the wooden
business is improving and that the
mills are more active than for some
time.

WORK ON BRIDGE
IS BEING RUSHED
Carpenters Are Now Work
ing on Floor of the
Structure.

The work the Holman street
bridge has been progressing rapidly
during the past week and now shows a
marked difference.
The structural iron workers have
been laid off for the present, as the
work on the span is nearly completed.
and all that is holding the work back
now is the side ratings on the south
approach of the bridge.
A large force of carpenters are work
ing on the flooring of the bridge and
this will be completed by the latter
part of the week. The street car rails
have been laid up to the south ap-
proach. 1t is thought that the cars
will be able to cross the bridge in

4 When Judge Virgil s. Reiter of the
Lake superior court entered in the
court docket the order which granted
Margaretha Kohnke a separate main
tenance from her husband. Karl
Kohnke OF Tolleston, he did not know
that the plaintif had been dead for

The court had provided that the ia

BLOW TO ILLEGAL
LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Judge Anderson and Gov. Marshall
Gave Coincident Raps On Same
Day to Law Violators

order to the state board of pharmacy
that the board should revoke the Ii
cense of any druggist who persists in
violating the liquor laws
The druggist order is regarded as the
more important of the two. because
drug stores are thick in Indiana. For
months reports have been reaching the
Governor to the effect that many drug
gists were violating the liquor laws by
selling liquar illegally. In other words
they were running blind tigers 1T was
even reported in a number of cases that
druggists only took out pharmacist IL
censes In order that they might run
drug stores and sell liquor. They paid
little or no attention to their drug end
of their business, and depended almost
entirely on the liquor business.
One instance was reported where a
former saloon man I'm a city that went
dry under the county option law start

en- out of the saloon business. He en-

AGAINST Annexation
Township Trustee Aiding in
Movement to Get Signers
For Remonstrance.

Remonstrances against the annexa-
tion of the rural portion of North
township to Hammond are-being signed
at lively rate, the work of securing
signers having begun last Saturday and
kept up all this week. The last pub
lication of the ordinance was made last
Monday and the demonstrators have ten
days time from this date in which to
file their objection.
John c. Becker, the township truss
tee- is working in behalf of the remon-
strators and is doing as much as pos
sfbIe to get signers. His Hammond
friends expected Becker to look at the
annexation through Hammond's eyes,
because the annexation will ultimately
be inevitable. The trustee. on the
other hand. says he is representing the
property owners and that he cannot be
expected to take any other stand.

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis, Ind, April 2O.-Two
important blows were administered
to the illegal liquor traffic in Indiana,
yesterday, one by Judge Anderson, OF
the Federal court, and the other by
Governor Marshall.
Each acted on his own motion, of
course. not knowing that the other
was about to hand one" to the blind
tiger operators and the liquor law
violators. but the fact that the two
blows were struck on the same day
made 1t an interesting coincidence.
Judge Anderson decided in the cases
of some Hammond and Gary saloon
keepers that foreigners could not be
naturalized after they nad been found
guilty of violating the laws of the
state. Governor Marshall issued an

WRONG MAN
 IS OFFERED
Detective Donnelly Has Hard Time Getting Prisoner on Ac- count of New York Jail Mix up

New Haven. June 1-The story of what is either an extremely peculiar mistake Or an effort on the part of authorities of the Raymond street jail in Brooklyn to palm off the wrong man on a local officer, was brought out last night upon the arrival of De- tectlVe Sergeant Henry J. Donnelly from New York with Francesca Ve- lano, who is charged with assault with intent to kill.
 It is claimed that four times the Ja1lers brought out the wrong man for identification claiming him to be the one remanded by Judge Fitch in the New Haven case and that the right man was only picked out by accident as he was passing through the jail yard. If it were not that Sergeant Donnelly demanded an absolute iden- tifcation of his man it is more than likely that he would have brought a dummy back to the city on his requisition papers. Before such a mis- take had been strengthened out it is probable that both the man he want ed and the man he brought here would have got off scot free.
