revival
WILL Be A
HUMMER

Plans for big revival period in
the Christian church have practically
been completed by the Rev. c. j. Sharp,
the pastor of the church. and those
who have followed his work and the
phenomenal growth are confident that
something big is in store, as he has
never failed to make more than good
Rev. Sharp himself will be behind
the work this time. but he will have
the assistance of Mr.. and Mrs. P NJ.
Kendall of Philadelphia Pa.
Mr.. Kendall has the reputation of
being one of the best revival chorus
leaders in the country and the Rev.
Sharp says that if there had been a
better one he would have procured his
services.
Mr. Kendall was originally with the
Scoville Evangelistic company, but lat
er found it more profitable to work
Independently. He was with the SEQ
Vile team in the erecord-breaking meet
ings at Anderson. Paris. ILL.,. and Des
p Fl. Welsheimer of Canton, o., in
three successive meetings. Pastor
Welshemer is said to have the record
for holding the biggest meetings by
| any pastor in his own congregations.
Mr.. Kendall is skilled cornetist,
and leads the song service with the
cornet. He and his wife bring with
them stereopticon which will be used
every evening to illustrate the Bible
| lessons and songs.

period, there being two for the Sundays

A1T'Ys. DENY CALDWELL
WON'T FACE TRIAL
Malicious Story Circulated
to Affect July in Pay
Roll Cases.

The report that John Caldwell has
jumped his bond and will not face trial
In the Gary pay roll cases is generally
discredited in Hammond. 1t is true that
Caldwell has not been seen in the
court room in some time but his sisters
were in court yesterday and listened to
the arguments in the case of Charles
Bloomhoff.
Attorneys Conroy and Bone. who will
be Caldwelfs attorneys when the case
comes to trial stated that they had
talked with Caldwell yesterday and
that he is employed in the Palace
Garage on Fifty-fifth street in Chi
cago.
Attorney Conroy said this morning
that he believed the report that Cald-
well had jumped his bond was circu-
lated for the effect it would have on
the jury. Caldwell is under ST 900 bond
which is signed by Harris and Bretsch,
Gary attorneys.

AT STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis, Ind. Feb. 11.-There is
good reason to believe that Governor
Marshal is not at all pleased with the
way things are going in the legislature.
The governor has not made any state
|ment along this line, as far as can be
learned but there is talk among a good
many mem bers of the two houses to
the effect that he is not satisfied with
the progress that has been made thus
far in the way of redeeming the plat
form pledges made by tie democrats.
1t is known that this matter was
talked about yesterday in a caucus of
senate democrats, and that the word
was passed around that the governor
was not satisfied with the way things
were going
1t is said that Governor Marshall
wants the legislature to get busy with
Its important work and quit fooling
away time on little matters until the
big ones are disposed Of One of his
close friends said yesterday after the
senate caucus that it was very plain
to him that unless the legislature got
down to busines and redeemed the
party pledges at this session the gov
ernor would call an extra session and
keep them here until they did redeem

a statement setting forth their side of
the case which resulted yesterday in
the Arrest of officer Weifenbach on a

COAPMAN ON NEEI.
 FOR SMALL PLANTS
SAYS BIRMINGHAM SHOULD FUN HERSELF IN POSITION TO BE IN-' DEpENDENT OF TEMPORARY DE- PRESsIONS IN IRON

That Birmingham with her prdgressive spirit should locate smaller plants, in- crease the pay rolls and be in position to discount depression in the irob mar ket, such as is now being experienced. was the gist of an interview givenN by E. H. Coapman, vice president and aneral manager of the Southern railway who arrived here yesterday.
 MT. Coapman said that business, gen- eraly speaking, was good, with tn ex- ception of the Birmingham district and that the quiet period here was du en- tirely to the depression in the iron Ar- ket. He said If Birmingham would sd re the smaller plants and increase m every way possible such dependency n pig iron would vanish, and the distric3 would never be quiet on any one a3f count.
 MT. Coapman will leave this morn.e on a special train for Mobile, and N1 be accompanied by several officers. T are making regular trip of inspec- ton of the line which has extended over all the important points on the Southern railway. MT. Coapman said:
 Physical condition of our property is good, and we are striving at all times to keep 1t up to that standard of eff ficiency equaling the best. You realize it takes money to do this, and the earnings at this time. while good, do not war rant a heavy expenditure in new devel- opment. However, we have hopes of get ting increased revenues to carry on new work and improve our present facilities
 Business, generally speaking, is good seemingly much better, however, at other points on the Southern railways system than at Birmingham. The depression In the iron market naturally affects our traffic, and on account of Birmingham's dependency to such 8 great extent upon the iron business 1t does seem that with the Birmingham spirit she should be able to deversfy her industries. encouraging the smaller plants to locate. increasing her pay rolls and have something at all times to depend upon other than pig iron"
