Not Trainmen's Fault.

Pedestrians complaining bitterly
of the railroads blocking crossings and
it was again this morning called to
the attention of the police. According
to past reports the Erie seems to be
the particular offender of this ordi-
nance and this morning held all the
crossings south of State street from
6:55 until 7.25 a. M, delaying traffic
and causing many to be late for work.
An investigation of the report this
morning shows that the train crews
are not always at fault for the con-
tinual crossing blocking. The train
crews are forced out of the Erie yards
with drags that they are not able to
handle They not given an extra
engine to help them out of the yards,
consequently before the engineer gets
to the bridge they take the target
away from him. causing the engineer
to bring his train to stop and he is
unable to move again.
This morning the drag that held the
crossings for 80 minutes consisted of
81 loaded cars and % empties. The
target was taken away from them, re-
sulting in the engineer being unable
to start again. The present system
the Erie has in handling their trains
crossing blocking, causing more delay
in traffic than all the other railroads
put together. 1t certainly Is up to the
Erie officials to remedy this or they
should be prosecuted.

superior court yesterday afternoon and
last night was on his way to Jeffer-
sonville to serve sentence of one to
fourteen years. His accomplice Will
liam Sanders, is still at large.
Upon pleading guilty to the charges
of grand larceny before Judge Reiter
yesterday afternoon Radford was SEN
fenced from one to fourteen years in
the Jeffersonville penitentiary, fined
SIS and DISTINGUISHED for five years. He
denied the charges that his alleged ac-
complice William Sanders, was impli-
Gated in the nervy robbery, testifying
that another Hammond negro took the
money box from the cigar case and
handed it to him.
The Hammond police doubt his story
as to who helped him do the job. and
last night 1t was Chief Austgen's in
tention to keep still hunt for Sand
ers. 1t is known that Sanders left
Hammond following the robbery and
for fear of being caught. gave another
negro by the name of Duff order to
collect his wages of IS at the Dingler
saloon. He told Duff that he was
afraid something was going to happen
and made his getaway.
Chief Austgen investigated the past
reputation of the two negroes yester-
day, with hopes of duplicating them in
other robberies, but few clues of i'm
portance have been learned. At pres
ent Sanders is thought to be hiding in
Chicago. and If the Chicago police get
a line on the negro he will soon follow
the footsteps of his pal. Radford testi-
fed that he gave the other negro $15S
which w3l keep Sanders in hiding foI
some time.
