". HAMMOND
TAKES STATE
LINE ACTION


The matter Of paving state Line
street was taken UP by the West Ham
mond city council at its meeting last
night. A committee from the West
Hammond council was selected to meet
with the Hammond authorities to dis
cuss the question of eliminating the
jog in State line street at the intersec-
tion of Ogden street
The jog is the result of a difference
between the Illinois and the Indiana
surveys and the lack of public spirit
which prevented the two communities
from getting together on compromise
of the matter at an earlier date
Now there is a large two-story build
ing located on the Indiana side of the
street and there are a number of other
residences built right up to the line in
Hammond.
The lack of a common sense city
plan by which a compromise of the
matter could have been effected earlier
in the game is palpably apparent. The
greed of the property owners for lit
tie extra advantage is also responsible
for the condition of the street
But the West Hammond committee
is to meet with the committee from
Hammond with the expectation that the
matter can be settled in some way and
the work of paving the street can go
forward.
Mayor K NJ. Woszczynski stated to-
day that the residents on the Illinois
side of the line are anxious to have
the street paved and are ready to go
ahead as soon as the question of the jog
in the street is definitely settled.
Other matters of lesser Importance
were taken up. Richard Zimmerman
was given the contract to repair the
Burnham bridge. There were number
of routine matters taken up

The Misses Eleanor and Jessie Wilson.


Cedar Lake. Ind. July 26.-The
waters of Cedar Lake claimed their
first drowning victim of the season
yesterday afternoon when Emil
Bizdors of Chicago an expert swimmer
was siezed with cramps while bathing
in about feet of water. Companions
noticed him throw up his hands and
cry for help. but they knowing him as
an expert swimmer, thought that he
was only joking and saw him go down
without getting any assistance.
The drowning occurred about $3.50 a
short distance from the Sigler Hotel
pier. There were about nine bathers
in the water at the time. Bizdors was
siezed with cramps while swimming
on his back. Failing to see his body
come up for the fourth time the bath
ers knew that a fatality. had occurred
and commenced a search for his body
Evidently there was a strong under
current in the vicinity where Bizdors
went down as the body was not found
until near ten o'clock last night where
it was located some distance away
Bizdors was enjoying a days outing at
the lake where the K. of c. order of
West Pullman were holding a picnic.
The remains will be shipped back to
Chicago burial

velopments resulting from the nling
of a case in one Of the courts in Chi
cago:
Being personal attorney for West
Hammonds Joan of Arc. Miss Vir-
ginia Brooks. and fighting her legal
battle in behalf of a cleaner West
Hammond, was not exactly a sinecu-e,
but holding a job as special assess
ment attorney in that suburb is even
harder, is the belief of Perry s. Pat
terson-
FOLLOWING the victory of Miss
Brooks law and order ticket at the
last municipal election, Patterson was
appointed corporation counsel. At the
same election Jacob Katz was elected
city attorney.
Immediately following the appoint
ment of Patterson by Miss Brooks
own mayor, K. NJ. Woszcynskf, Katz
asked States Attorney Wayman to file
quo warronto proceedings attacking
Patterson's right to serve. Patterson
resigned.
Patterson was then maoe specfal
assessment attorney and everything
looked fine for him until yesterday
when Arnold B. Krzyanowski and
Joseph Stefanski, as taxpayers. asked
an order of court restraining the
mayor and the aldermen from paying
Patterson for his services. alleging
that he was not resident of Wes
Hamond, had been illegally appointed
and that his appointment was a subter
fuge to allow him to perform the sam
duties he performed corporation

NO BULL
MOOSE NOISE
IN HAMMOND

The politicians OF Hammond do not
seem to take much interest in the
movement to organize a Bull Moose"
party in Lake county and there are
very few of the citizens who seem to
take any interest in the proceedings.
The prevailing idea seems to be that
the convention at Crown Point will be
frost and that there will be only a
small attendance from Gary and East
Chicago
There seems to be a reluctance to
break away from old party lines, and
neither democrats or republicans are
becoming very much excited over the
matter.

enlisted in the effort that is TO be
made to induce the county commits
sioners of Lake county to authorize
the construction of a $4,000 bridge
over the west branch of the canal on
Forsyth avenue.
The support of East Chicago is en-
listed because the bridge will be built
within that city. The support Of
Whiting Is enlisted because Forsyth
avenue Is the only thoroughrare con-
Meeting Whiting with the Industrial
district to the southwark. and the
support of Hammond Is enlisted be-
cause the necessity for the bridge
arises from the fact that the North
western Iron company has located In
Hammond ande~a canal Is required to
serve the blast furnaces OF the new
plant with ore.
In letter that was sent out by c.
A. Westberg, vice president of the
East Chicago company. to leading bus
