RULES SUSPENDED
TO PASS ORDINANCE

East Chicago. Ind, Aug. 1s.-At a
special meeting of the East Chicago city
council Monday evening the rules were
suspended for the purpose Of putting
through an ordinance providing for the
repair of the bridge which spans the
Calumet river at Kennedy avenue. This
action was taken in order to prevent
unnecessary delay which would have
taken the usual course and been acted
upon without a suspension Of the rules.
Some time it was agreed by
the county commissioners that the
county would stand one-half the ex-
pense if Hammond and East Chicago
would share the balance. Hammond had
already agreed to the proposition. and
ii remained for East Chicago to einch
the agreement by taking the neces-
sary action. For this purpose a meet
ing of the council was called Monday
night. but Alderman Ferdinand Ketcik,
for some reason as yet unexplained,
saw fit to block the procedure by vot-
ing no" Tnasmuch a sthe ru1ts ad
been suspended. it required but one
contrary vote to hold up the measure.
A second special meeting was call
ed for last night, and on this occa-
sion Alderman Ketcik failed to respond
when his name was called, his silence
being equivalent to assent. The or
finance was accordingly adopted, and
the commissioners will begin to ad-
vertise the work at once for a term of
three weeks, after which work on the
bridge Ill be begun at once.
