BALDWIN
ACTIVITY
INFLUENCES
Real Estate Market in Calu-
met Region Takes on a
Healthier Tone; Each City
Prepares to Take Full Ad-
vantage.

The most conspicuous development
of the week affecting the real estate
situation In North township Is the fact
that the plans and specifications for the
foundations of the first unit of the
Baldwin Locomotive works have boon
received by number of contractors IN
the Chicago district with Instructions
70 have their bids ready by the sixth
of May
This means that not later than the
middle OF the month the first work on
the new plant will have begun. Tho
effect on real estate values is expected
to be stimulating.
There have been desultory sales of
real estate all during the wek. The
activity in East Chicago being more
pronounced than in any other section
of the region.
There was lot of inquiry in Indiana
Harbor for property in the business
district of the city following the
breaking of the story that the Frick
property had been sold. The details
Of this deal have not yet been made
public.
Outsiders Only Buy.
The announcement that the Baldwin
will build has been received in East
Chicago with the most impenetrabIe
skeptictsm. Like the farmer who first
saw a dromedary in a circus they say.
There amt no such thing" But the
wise ones are getting in on the few
remaining bargains.
Practically every cheap piece of
property on South Forsythe avenue has
been picked up. The street has been
gone over with a hne tooth comb and
the Hammond men who have placed
their faith on. this street are now set
Tor the big boom II It comes.
Gary is basking in the reflected
light of the Baldwin development by
opening subdivision just over the
East Chicago-csa corporation line.
But the Philadelphia Land & Improve
ment company. which has secured a
large tract of land to the north of the
plant site in Indiana Harbor proposes
to build several hundred houses to be
placed at the disposal OF the men en-
ployed in the new plant. This sort oi
competition is expected to be pretty
strong and will prevent Gary from
getting all the advantage of the 1ocat-
ing OF the Baldwin plant in East Chi
cago.
Hammond Sewer Opposition.
Hammond is suffering a temporary
eclipse in it's development owing to thu
development OF strong opposition tt
the first and only adequate plan for
general sewer system for the whol
city. If Hammond obstructionists sue

ANTICIPATE
MONTHLY SHOOTS

In the short space of several weeks
the Hammond police department is in
hopes that they will be able to hold
their regular monthly shoots, follow
ing an idleness of over year. This
was caused by the police being unable
to find a suitable place.
They formerly held their practice
shoots in the rear uf the old G. H.
Hammond company's buildings, but
when wrecking work was started they
were refused the use of the premises
Arrangements ar now bing made to
build a solid wall out of studding on
the city property neAr Hoffman street
where If the officers wish they can
practice daily. Most of the work will
be done by the officers themselves, so
consequently the backstop viii be
erected at small a cost as possible.

the potato crop will be fully 5000
