CHANGE.|S
WANTED

What is believed to be the first move
in preparing the site for the Ameri-
can Car Foundry company's Gary plant
is reflected in the following paragraph
taken from a Washington dispatch:
Senator Shively of Indiana today
proposed an amendment to the river
and harbor bill authorizing a change
in the channel of Calumet river
through the property of the Gary Land
Co and Indiana Steel company in Lake
county, Ind. A new channel is to be
constructed, according to the amend
ment, If the land owners cede to the
United states ownership and control
over the land through which the new
channel is proposed to go. The old
bed of the stream then would be de-
clared closed and the land in it used
for other purposes"
IT is also the intention of the steel
corporation to straighten the Grand
Calumet near the American Bridge
plant and the Illinois steel works.

BA[[Y LUCK
Kirk Railway Yards En-
ployes Now Believe Webb,
the Bandit, Visited Their
Place Grind Teeth When
They Think of Reward.

Employees of the Kirk railway yards
at Gary believe that Robert Webb. the
auto bandit of Chicago, was in their
midst few days ago and now Chief
Storekeeper Joseph Mullen and other
officials are weeping that they didn't
think OF the suspect in time and secure
the $500 reward offered for his arrest.
A man answer Webb's description
applied for work at the yards. He came
in from westville. Ill, he said The
next day the railway men read that
Webb had been at Westville. the rail-
ways coal exchange station. And then
siYev recalled the resemblance of the
lob hunter to Webb. The man that
they believed TO be WEBB was arrayed
in a coachman's uniform.
At 2:3o yesterday afternoon just one
week had elapsed since the most daring
murder ever pe-petrated in Chicago
that OF Detective Peter Hart by Robert
Webb. the auto bandit.
Although the entire city police force
and half of the detectives in big cities
throughout the country nave been en-
gagged in the quest for the elusive
bandit during the week practically
nothing tangible has been accomplish
ed.
The weeks search may be summar-
lied as follows:

Commanding officers who have
charge of the search for Webb yester-
day admitted that they were no nearer
having him than on the day he shot
and killed Detective Hart.
One of the difficulties of living in a
city that is being covered by 1000
seekers after a murderer was ex-
planned yesterday afternoon by Ed
mund Bell. who happens to bear a
strong resemblance to Webb After
being arrested as Webb so often that
he had lost count of the number OF
times. Bell went to the Hyde Park sta
ton and asked for letter of identihca-
ton that would prove he was not
Webb. The letter was written by Cap
tain LAWN.
