IS FAIRBANKS AFTER
TAFT CABINET JOB?
Friends Say Knox's Place
Might Satisfy-Yerkes
Starts Something.

Washington, Feb 1-Former Vice
President Fairbanks, who has been a
guest at the whitehouse since his ar
rival Monday to attend the Ohio society
dinner. left Washington for New York
at o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
He goes on important private bust
ness, it is said. and vii return to Indi-
annapolis about Friday.
Close friends of the former vice
president deny that he has under con-
sideration an offer of diplomatic post.
Having one declined the post of am
bassador to Great Britain he would
hardly consider any lesser place, say
his close friends
The only post that might attract him,
say his friends here, is the portfolio
of state. Some time ago Knox thought
seriously of resigning. But there are
no indications at present that he will
do so soon.
AT a luncheon Monday given tc Fair
banks by John W. Yerkes of Kentucky,
a boom was started for the Indiana
man for vice president on ticket with
Taft in 112.
1t is conceded that sunny Jim
Sherman will not again be acceptable
to Taft as running mate.

such they have read about.
The party consisting of William
Milthke, aged Is. William Curtin, aged
II and Forest Nelson, aged Il, being
made up they embarked on their jour
ney at noon on Monday. The money
was furnished by Milthke who worked
in Otto Weidmans store. The other
two boys both attended school. The
trio evidently left Whiting in high
spirits but these did not last long, for
on Monday evening, the Whiting police
received telephone message from
Blue Island, stating that the three
boys were picked up there by an Off
Ger. The parents were all notified, and
word was sent back to hold them.
Yesterday Mr. Nelson went up after
them. and their hopes have all been
blighted, and all the farther west they
got was Blue Island. and they found
no cowboys there.

TO EXPAND

East Chicago, Ind, Feb. lone hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars have
been made available for improvements
by the Grassellf Chemical company re-
Gently.
In the spring the company will spend
this amount on the erection of a group
of buildings. in which number of new
departments viii be conducted. and
their equipment
The buildings will number three or
four and will be erected on ground just
east of the present plant. Work will
commence on the new structures just
soon the weather will permit.
While the improvements are quite
extensive they will not necessitate the
employment of a great many extra
men. About twenty or twenty-five will
be sufficient to man the new depart
ments
The Grassell Chemical companys
plant at Grasselli is one of this city's
largest and most prosperous industries.
1t is little affected by hard times and
has run consistently and persfstently at
times when most of the other big plants
of the region were shut down.

H. P. Smith said this morning that
no definite action would be taken on
these contractors until possibly on Fri

were obliged to get out of the burning
building by way of side window Two
babies of the Molinskis were passed out
of the window to the outstretched arms
of neighbors in window opposite aft
er which the parents made their escape
by the same exit.
The fire was caused by an overheated
cookstove in the kitchen. The family
had retired without taking the precau-
tion to shut off the draught in the stove
and the intense heat set the partition
back of the stove on fire. The fire crept
up the wall and up to the roof. The
only door by which the inmates of the
burning house could escape was the
rear door and this was cut off by the
flames. SO it became necessary to make
use of window. The flight was made
without mishap, and a summing up of
the damages by Chief Doherty this
morning showed q loss of 5000 on the
house and $50 on the furniture both
fully covered by insurance.

The only explanation that could be

that it started from a tailor's sad iron

that the legs of the table were burned
