SEAMAN
LINE MAI
GET BUMP

Information of an authentic nature
has been received in Hammond today to
the effect that the franchise of the
Gary Interurban railway company
on South Broadway will pass without
a question at the regular meeting of
the city council in Gary tonight
This will end for all time the con-
troversy between the Gary & Interur-
ban line and the Gary & Southern line.
promoted by the Seaman syndicate. 1t
will give the Gary & Interurban line
monopoly of the city business of Gary
and will make it possible to give the
south side transportation facilities in
a very few months.
The only obstacle in the way of the
passage of the Gary & Interurban fran
chise was the opposition of NJ n. Cast
leman and his council majority of six.
Castleman objected to the franchise
on the ground that the Gary & Inter-
urban company ought to make its
eight for quarter tickets good on all
parts of the line within the city limits.
1t is understood that this matter has
been satisfactorily adjudicated and
that the Catsleman opposition will be
withdrawn. This is believed to be the
death sentence of the Seaman project,
as the granting of the franchise will
give the Gary & Interurban line control
of South Broadway as far south as
Glen Park.
If Gary gets Grown Point line now
it will have to look to the Gary & In
terurban company to construct it.
Many of the citizens of Gary believe
that the Gary Interurban company
is In a better condition to build the
Crown Point extension than the Sea-
man crowd. Seaman has always been
looked upon something of ad-
venturer, and the Gary & Interurban
company has always built every ex-
tension it promised to build

and in the evening at Indiana aHrbor.
The Whiting church has now reached
a point where Rev. Carpenter feels that
the church can stand alone and should
have morning and evening services.
After his efforts in attaining that point
Rev. Carpenter is stepping out to al
low another minister to come in and
enjoy the fruit of his labor, and is go
ing to devote his entire time to the
Indiana HarbOr church. feeling that
in it's struggle to reach the goal the
local church has reached that he will
be of great help to them, he sacrificing
his own personal interests for the sake
of his people
The action comes not from any crisis
in the work, but the elimination of
a series of forward steps in the local
church in which Rev. Carpenter has
led his congregation. The debt on the
church lot has been raised during his
stay in Whiting. the money for the
building secured: the erection and
dedication of the building has also ta-

Advices from the Birmingham dis

LOTS SELL

East Chicago. Jan. 27.-Lots in the

Real estate men are however con-

servatism, and have thus far refrained
from boosting the prices of dirt" to
figures which would eventually result
in an unsteady and unhealthy market
Theer has of course been some increase
in prices since it became known that
the big Buckeye concern was to build
a $2,000,0 900 plant here, but the increase
has been kept within very reasonable
bounds.
