ANNEXATION
CASE ON TRIAL
Especial to THE TrMEs.)


Grown Point, Ind. June 1.-THE an
nexatfon question raised two years
ago, when Hammond attempted to take
in all that rural territory in North
township not belonging to some NUM-
cipal corporation now, is to go TO trial
at last The question. which is divided
into three cases, representing the three
districts to be annexed was set special
ly for today before Judge W. C. Nc
Mahan at Crown oPint in the circuit
court. The trial of the cases may take
only a few days, or two weeks.
The compromise between the city
and the farmers. which was talked Of
last week. has fallen through appar-
emily. AT that time It was suggested.
the suggestion coming from the farm
ers. that they would agree to an an
nexation providing that the Judgment
would not become effective until two
years hence. The city undoubtedly
would have listened to something of
this nature. and there is still remote
possibility of its being revived.
The demonstrators saw to IL that
their strongest case would go to trial
first. This case involves the territory
around Hessviile and has Calumet ave-
nue. for its western boundary hne. This
district also has the most zremonstra-
tors, and for that reason the latter in
sisted on having it their first case.

A Curb Market.

Frank O'Rourke, market master, is
well aware of the fact that he is up
against a stiff proposition with his
city market. Yet ORourke is sure that
he will make it win. If the people will
not visit the city hall grounds Mr.
O'Rourke may ask the council to let
him sell from the curb downtown. He
laments the fact that housewives are
not more eager to accept an opportuni-
ty to buy very cheaply the fresh pro-
duce from the farm. He realizes that
all that keeps them from doing so is
the fact that it is much easier to tele-
phone the grocer. However, he is not
discouraged with the outlook, for on
the three days of market farmers have
sold well and cheap.

but we entertained the visitors on
three consecutive evenings. They were
all agreed that they never had bet
