ANOTHER
SCHOOL. BANK
IS TO START
Especial to THE TIMEs.)

East Chicago. Ind. Feb. 25.-The
board of education has decided to es-
taolish school savings system. This
system Will differ from the ordinary
school savings bank in that regular
banking institutions viii be used and
interest will be paid on deposits, the
same as on any other savings account
The board believes that this system
mas another advantage over the ordi-
nary system. The children get their
stamps of the teachers and put them in
ioider provided. When they have
one dollars worth the folder is taken
TO the bank. with which arrangements
have been made and the child opens
a regular savings account. thus bring

let these prosecutions slide.
Other propositions have been made
to him and Greenwald. himself, adj
mits that 1t would be worth $4,000 to
$4,000 to him II he would promise to
be good" Similar overtures have
been made to Sheriff Grant. according
to report. in an effort to create fric-
tion between the sheriff's and the
prosecutors Offices and bring about a
miscarriage of justice in these prose-
cutions.
But the influence of the grafters'
combine has gone even farther. 1t has
extended even to the state capital. En-
voys of the gang have been down there
trying to prevent the prosecutions from
going farther.
Fight Ii Relentless.
But in spite of all of this the fight
is being carried on relentlessly, and
next Monday the grand jury win meet
again for the purpose of winding UP
the business that has been before it
for so many weeks
1T is then that number of indict-
ments will be issued and probably the
biggest sensation of the year Will be
sprung. The grand jury has been
greatly Handicapped by the fact that a
large number of valuable witnesses
have been sent from the state pro-
longed vacations.
1t has also been handicapped by the
fact that even though Lake county has
a population of nearly 100000 the
prosecutors office is not allowed Sc
cret service that will enable him tc
carry on investigations of this char
acter of his own accord and without
being compelled TO go to the sheriff fol

RECALLS BRIDGE COMPANY BOMBS.
The company, however. has secured

American Bridge company, which. in
times past, has been involved in labor
troubles resulting in bomb explosions
The first of these occurred Aug. 5. 1908,
at One Hundred and Thirty third street
and the Calumet river where the
American Bridge company was con-
structing a bridge for the Illinois Cen
tral. The second bomb demolished sew

early and will always keep it. The
bank furnishes all supplies to the
schools and pays the regular savings
account interest to children. so there
is very little profit to the bank. In
deed. the only profit is in the future
customers 1t may secure. The burden
of the bookkeeping is practically all
upon the bank and not the school.
There is absolutely no profit to the
school except the better characters
formed in the pupils. The First Ma
tional and the Indiana Harbor State

die National bank OF New York City
who is attending the convention Of the
Nebraska bankers
In New York nearly all reports state
that the corn and wheat Of Colorado.
Nebraska. Iowa and Kansas amounted to
only about half the usual crop. and these
false reports have had a bad effect upon
many eastern banks Since 7 have been
here have talked 20 many bankers. and
they say that business could not be bet
ter. There seems to be a good demand
for money and conditions generally point

healthy as those IN Nebraska. is consid-
cred fair IN the last month. however.
The demand for funds has Increased. and
