No One Hurt.

Some woman over on West State
street in West Hammond got into an
argument with some men and the re-
port was sent out that she had been
shot and that Detectives Mack and
Kruse had shot her assailant while he
was making his escape.
The story seemed to emanate from
the Carleton hotel and 1t rapidly gain
ed credence It passed from person to
person by word Of mouth until IT was
finally proven to he untrue.
The only foundation for the story
said Officer Okraj is the fact that
some woman had row with several
men at night There was a good deal
Of noise about It and that was all
There were no shots fired"
