TALKS ON
SENSATION

Judge Frank d. Green of West Ham
mond is sitting in the seat of the
Scornful today and crying shame at
the police of his city. The eminent
jurist. who has never been fond ad-
vocate of the present administration
and is not afraid to declare that fact
to the housetops. is now in full sym
pathy with the stories alleged to come
from two men who were incarcerated
in the West Hammond cooler for a few
hours one night.
Trail Leads Nowhere.
The judge allowed the story to gain
the dignity of publicity yesterday. 1t
is to the effect that a pair OF men were
robbed and sIugged by Officers James
O'Keefe and James Buckley. The
names of the men were lacking and to-
day the judge referred THE TIMES to
Theodore Klotz for that information.
He named Klotz their attorney.
This the lawyer denies. He also
states that he has no knowledge what
ever of the case.
Chief Not Worried.
| Chief of Police John Okraj knew
without being told the origin of the
story. He asid he did at least and
added that 1t did not concern him in
| the least. It's old gag said the
chief when a man is arrested for
drunkenness after having spent his
money or lost it the most natural thing
in the world is for him to tell his wife
that the police took 1t from him.
These fellows We're picked up al
three in the morning. I don't. think
they intended the story they told about
the police to get out very far. All
least they are keeping under cover

SNEAK THIEVES
ARE BUSY

The Hammond police department are
making a city wide search today in
their efforts to locate two senak thieves
who broke into the plant of the FitZ-
hugh Luther company last Saturday
afternoon and made their getaway
with two boxes of valuable carpenter
tools. The tools are valued at $50.
The police are led to believe tina t
the theft was committed by two young
men who started work at the plant
last Saturday morning and have not
been seen heard of since. Two
boards were found removed on the
fence surrounding the plant and this
is about the only clew that the aus
thorities have to work upon.

BELGIUM MAY GRANT
MANHOOD SUFFRAGE
Chamber of Deputies, on Mo.

to Consider Situation.

BRUSSELS, Apil 1s.-While it is
premature to hope for an early settle
ment Of the great strikes that now is
paralyzing the economic life Of Bel
gum, efforts made today by M Hy-
man, the Liberal leader in the chamber
of deputies, to conciliate those opposed
to granting manhood suffrage to the
workmen appear not TO have been alto
gether in vain, The chamber adjourned
until next Tuesday on motion of the
premier to consider the situation.
After the chamber adjourned, the So
cialist members drew up a manifesto
explaining the situation. This docu-
ment says:
"Will it be war or will it be peace'
We do not know, but the strike now
progressing was indispensable to en-.
force hearing of our claims.H
The impression produced by the
speech in tho chamber by Herr Woeste
the Clerical leader who Yesterday en-
phatically opposed any concessions by
the majority to those demanding man
hood suffrage, led to an increase in
the number Of strikers today, notably in
Brussels, but this increase apparently
was offset By resumption of work else
where.

$4,000.
