in any other county that another year
will place Lake County second in the
list in point of the number of school
children. In fifteen years it should
equal that of Marion county.
The increase in the cities is also
nota BILE as showing how much faster
the Lake County cities are growing
than the cities in other parts of the
state
Indianapolis reported an enumera :
ton of 54.129, an increase of 1926. FIT
Wayne reported a total of 1864. a
gain of 1877. Evansville reported a
total of 1924. gain of 230.
Gary, with a total of 5,074, reported
a gain of 1000. East Chicago reported
"a gain of 6o9 with a total of 4.9Ss.
Hammond reported a total of 6.140, a
gain of PAS. Whiting. with a total Of
1890. showed a gain of PIP. The total
gain in Lake county was 2,267.
The enumeration forms the basis for
the per capita distribution of the state
school tuition fund.
Another interesting feature of the
enumer ton is the fact that Lake
County will soon be laying a claim to
place on the state board of educa-
| tion.
In another year 1T will have the sec
| ond largest enumeration in the state
| That makes 1T logical for Lake County
| to demand a place on the state board.

never hands out card, just two words
Gary and Tim get him entree any

After selling $4,000 worth of lots in
Detroit, Col. Englehart began to ad.
mire the sights of the beautiful little
city and with view of Improving
Ridge Road began to look around for
some little trinket or statue or some
thing like that to take home with him.
He saw Belle Isle.

TOWN SCARED TO DEATH.
Then he began negotiations and in
side of an hour the news was all over
town. Papers began to get out extras.
Mayor Thompson ordered out the en-
tire police department to Belle Isle to
guard it and there was the greatest
CONSERVATION imaginable.
1t was at this juncture that the
Journal wired THE TINES and got the
reply that if Col. Englehart of Gary
said he was going to buy Belle Isle TO
look out for him for he probably had
money with him to not only buy Belle
/ Isle but also the St Charles River.

TRUST
Especial to THE TrMEs.)

New York, May 23.-Interlocking d.
rectors between the United States Steel
Corporation and numerous railroads ex-
erted no influence to prevent the Nc
Clintie Marshall Construction company.
an independent bridge concern, which
is to be build big plant at Indiana
Harbor from securing contracts TO
build railroad bridges, according to
testimony given yesterday by c. D.
Marshall, president of the construction
company, in the hearing of the suit to
dissolve the United States Steel Cor
poration under the sherman antitrust
law
On DISCRIMINATION Mr.. Marshall
named more than a score of railroads.
some of whose directors are directors
of the United States Steel Corporation,
for which his concern had built bridges.
In most cases, he said, the American
Bridge company, a subsidiary of the
steel trust had competed against his
concern for the contract
C. A. Severance, counsel for the
steel corporation, called the attention of
the witness particularly to the He'll
Gate bridge over the East river in New
York city, now under construction, for
the New York Connecting railway, a
corporation owned Jointly by the New
York. New Haven & Hartford and the
Pennsylvania railroads The American
Bridge company secured the contract
for the span of the bridge and the
McClintic- Marshall company for the APP
proaches, the witness said.
No Influence Contracts.
Did the fact that there are inter-
locking directors between these two
roads and the United States Steel Cor
poration interfere with your concern Sc
curing this contract?" asked Mr.. Sever
ance
Not to my knowledge" replied the
witness. We got the contract"
I'm any OF these contracts you
cured from all these railroads you have
mentioned. did you have any difficulty
on account of interlocl<ing directors?"
We got our share of the business"
/ said Mr.. Marshall.
The witness said that his concern
frequently had secured contracts fron,
the Pennsylvania railroad for which
the Pennsylvania Steel company con-
J trolled by the Pennsylvania railroad,
was a competitive bidder. His COM
pany also secured the contract for
J building the locks of the Panama canal
/ in competition with the American
Bridge company, he said.
| Mr. Severance used this testimony to-
| gether with statements showing the in
crease in the McClintic-M Marshall COM
pany's business since 1900. the date of
| its organization, and that of the Amer
can Bridge company, also to point out
: how an Independent concern had thrived
under the American Bridge companys

/ Mr.. Severance brought out from the
! witness that his companys business
| had increased relatively more than that
