Harbor Branch.

KILLED IN REGION 23
Especial to THE T1MEs)

Indiana Harbor. July 27-While car
No. e1 of the indiana Harbor branch of
the South Shore line was bowling along
at a rate OF twenty miles an hour, a
fore gner suddenly appeared from the
interior of the car and walked of the
platform without a word of warning.
This happened at $50 o'clock this
morning and at 10 o'clock the man had
not yet recovered consciousness. 1t is
believed however that he will recover
unless internally injured. as there is
no evidence of fractured skull, the only
apparent injuries being a dislocated
shoulder and bruises about the head
and ears.
The man, whose name could not be
learned, was taken to Schlieker's drug
store where DIR. Schieker restored the
shoulder to it's normal setting, and
bound UP the other wounds of the vic
time
What the mans object was in de-
liberately walking off the car could not
be guessed. but it is a fact that foreign
ers frequently try to do this apparent
ly falling to realize the speed at which
the cars are going.
Conductors are often obliged to forci-
bly, detain them from carrying out this
intention.
The car was in charge of Conductor
Davis and Motorman Quinn.

PURTELLE AGAIN
DELIBERATELY LIES
Misguided Greeks Are Still
Whistling for Their
Money.

According to James Bereolos, who be-
friended a number of Greeks who came
to Hammond to get their pay after they
had been informed by Eugene Purtelle
that their checks would be cashed at a
local bank, Purtelle promised to have
the money in the bank this morning.
At noon PurtelIe had not kept his
promise.
Upon their arrival in Hammond after
working on the bridge at Thayer for
some time the Greeks went to the Of
nee of Mcmahon & Conroy for legal ad-
vice.
They promised to be back at one
O'Clock when members or tn flsnf prom
ised to take the matter up further.
In the meantime they went to James
Bereolos' restaurant and he referred
them to Aattorney W. WINERY.
Winery took the matter up with
Purtelle and exacted the promise from
him that he would have funds in the
bank by this morning. He did not keep
his promise and other steps will now
have to be taken to get the money
Attorney j. K. Stinson said today
that he has no knowledge of the opera
tions of Eugene Purtelle. He said that
he severad all relations with Purtelle
when he learned that he is not paying
his bills. He said further that he has
several hundred dollars coming from
Purtelle which is not paid.
That Purtelle is still trying to work
out his dream of a railroad is shown
by the fact that only recently he staketf
off strip of land through DR. Browns
farm near Maynard.
Dr. Brown told Stinson that he had
done SO without any authority from
him but If there is a chance of build :
ing the road that he would be glad to
donate the right of way.
