the Taft steam roller the most rapidly
dispatched Roosevelt delegate. The
young man was taken to St Margaret's
hospital badly bruised and believed to
be suffering from internal injuries. Re-
ports from there today signify that he
is doing well and will live.
Last April he was a passenger on the
Titanic and went down with the ship.
He came to the surface in time to seize
a floating plank and later to get
aboard the bottom of an upturned life
boat with number of other survivors
who were taken aboard the life boat
in which Mrs. John Jacob Aston was
one of the passengers, and at her solicit
tation, finally to be picked up by the
rescue ship, the Carpathia. Persons

and the latters little daughter were
lost in the wreck.
1t was Persons first trip to this
country. His sister had been visiting
her old home In Stockholm and the
young man wa s accompanying her

that it requires much fortitude to live
In this country, but that If one can

ern Canada over s100,0o0.00o will be
spent before the close of the year for
new construction or for double track
ing AS the Canadian steel companies
are as badly sold up American
manufacturers. many of these rail ord
ers that will develop may come to this
country.
Reports from Europe indicate that in
England and Germany the demand for
steel and iron continues sunabated.
Prices in England for iron however.
have fallen a little due to realizing
Stocks of iron on hand in the north Of
England and Scotland have dwindlad
still further and are rapidly nearing
the vanishing point.
Prices for pig iron continue firm. al
though there is practically no demand
and little in sight for merchant furn-
ace production. Idle furnaces of the
merchant class at present have ca
pacity of 1,50o.0 900 tons a year. The
great consumption of the manufactur-
ers and the likelihood that they will
have to come into the market again for
some of their requirements has been
one of the factors lending strength to
prices. Another is an expected renewal
of buying by small consumers as soon
as the large amount of iron taken dur
ing the winter and spring is used.

APPEAL IS
PERFECTED

Attorneys for City Treasurer E. c.
Simpson of Gary have perfected the
appeal TO the supreme court in the
case OF the State OF Indiana wherein
Sfgmund Eisler, saIoonkeeper is the
reiator, VS.. the city treasurer.
In a ruling handed down by Judge
Kopelke of number three superior
court simpson was inundated to charge
5000 instead of $500 for the city liquor
license fee. Five hundred dollars was
the old fee but the council reduced it
and the treasurer acting on the advice
of his attorneys refused to accept the
$500 fee saloonmen headed by Eisler
gained their point in the superior
court
Hodges and Ridgley attorneys for
the treasurer contend In their brief
that Judge Kopelke erred in overrulsng
the appellents demurrer to re COM
plant. In a nutshelltheir appeal is
based on the grounds that the council
had no power to repeal the fs500) high
license ordinance for the reason that
the power was delegated by the legfs-
lature to city councils not to increase
fees but to determine what the law
should be whether the license should
be $500. $500 or $500 etc) and then to
apply IL. Gary's council having de-
termtned what the law should be $500
license) within the thirty days time
allowed and it having gone into effect
the council could not later change the
Proctor law (by repeating the $500 IL
cense) as 1t would then usurp the pow
ers of thelegislature.

JOHN HAD AN
AWFUL BICEPS
But Little John Had Him
Soon Hanging Onto
the Ropes.

John Hudacko, who recently came
to Indiana Harbor from Joliet, had
been lording 1T in the Illinois town
just long enough to cause his conf
dence in himself to nearly crack his
scalp. He measures six feet two IN
his stockings and weighs 200 pounds,
all Drawn and bone.
John Reeves measures exactly FIVE
feet FIVE. He weighs $50 pounds is of
stocky build, but is there with the
Drawn also The men are employed
by the Inland Steel company. Both
live in Cedar near 136th street.
Last night the two men were in con-
versation in the locality In which they
reside. The subject drifted to strength
and fighting ability. Hudacko pro-
ceeded to display prcep that closely
resembled a football. He swelIed his
chest out to its fullest proportions
and reared his mighty stature to Its
grandest pinnacle He said: 81 can
lick anything l tackle. big. little or
middle sized. / am as husky as 1 am
big"
The little man had not been saying
much, but his ire had been gradually
rising. Il defy you to lick me-" he
challenged, squaring away.
When Sergeant Barker appeared up
on the scene Hudacko was hanging on
the ropes, while his diminutive adver-
sary was fitting airily about, landing
a jab here, a punch there and every
one of them scoring.
Barker threw a sponge into the ring
In token of Hudacko's surrender
Judge Reiland has been appointed ref
cree and will give his decision today.

JUNE STEEL
BUSINESS HEAVY

Although one of the influential trade
journals last week stated that new
business booked during July had
shown a big falling off, the general
opinion of the trade is that there has
not been any slump In incoming steel
orders and Inquiries and that July
business Will be very large The con-
fict in opinion may be due to the fact
that probably a large number of con-
tracts have been placed the details of
which have not been made public. For
instance 1T is reported that the Harri-
man lines have placed their contract
for 5000 freight cars, that the Denver
and Rio Grande has ordered 1900 cars
and the Duluth, South Shore and At
lantic 1000. Philadelphia report
says that steel manufacturers think
the lull in the trade reported in this
trade journal exaggerated They say
that the falling off is not as extensive
as generally thought and that current
business is quite up to expectations.
The Litchfield and Madison Railway
has ordered 100 cars of the gondola
type from the American Car and Foun-
dry Company. The Seaboard Air Line
has ordered twentyfour cars and
coaches from the Pressed Steel Car
Company and six dining coaches from
the Pullman Company The Central
New England has inquired for 1000
box and fifty fiat cars.
The st. Paul has ordered an addi-
tional 100 locomotives, making orders
for over 300 placed during the last
two months
The Western Maryland has given
orders for 2.1O0 tons of rails to the
Carnegie Steel Company and 200 tons
to the Bethlehem Steel Corporation

tween $25.0oo,o0o and $50. 5000 for

TITLES TO BE

Fear that several thousand lots. the
value of which ranges from $4,000. 600
to 100000 had their titles clouded nv
the Bradford's court proceedings are
now dispelled by the title and trust

Gary Man Produces Some
Big Scales as Evidence
of Veracity.

A wonderful fish story has come of
Bailey Harbor where Detective Sam
Muckian. head of the BertilIon bureau
OF the Gary police department. is
spending his vacation.
1t appears that big fish came UP the
river near where Muckian's mother
lives and that after a hard struggle 1t
was captured and killed. Dimensions
or the big fnny tride specimen are
lacking but from what can be CLEANED
IL is stated that the scales on the fish
were SO large that the Bailey Harbor
natives are using them as isinglass in
their stoves while others found some
scales big enough to make window
panes out of them.
