ROADS ARE
COMING To
THEIR SENSES

A trio of trunk lines that pass
through Hammond have sent their Of
icials to make amends for past me-
glect and as an evidence that they are
willing to cooperate with the city for
the safety of the public Fear of prose-
cution may have greatly aided this re-
pentance though they state their mo-
tives as being polite.
A whole crew of Monon officials met
with the directors of the Hammond
Chamber of Commerce yesterday after
noon and discussed the crossing prob
lem in all its aspects. Later in the day
representatives of the Baltimore and
Ohio and Chicago terminal railroads

B. & o. is the least offensive of the
roads in regards to crossings and as il
skirts the city would be the last to be
punished There have been few COM
plants from the road and when the Of
ficials explained their stand in the mat
ter they were to be complimented. The

keeps up strict discipline.

Anti Sewer Crowd Meets At
Longs Hall And Remon-
strators Handle Several
Interesting Questions On
Bare Knuckles.

The anti-deep sewer crowd held a
meeting last night in Longs hall and
when they adjourned the LAWYERS in
Hammond received a nice little blister
ing. The antis who met for the purpose
of restraining the city of Hammond
from building a sewer system as an
proved by the board of public works
were of the opinion that there is not
an attorney in the city capable or hon
est enough TO handle their injunction
case. Various speakers voiced this
sentiment, one stating that Hammond
lawyers are one and all in with the
ring and that anything and every
thing will be done to turn the peoples
money over to the Ahlborn Construc-
tion Company.
$40 In Cash.
Two hundred and twenty four were
present and when the call to arms
came every man jack of them enlisted.
They donated $40 in cold cash and
pledged a 500 more, collectable at any
time. 1t Is the opinion of leaders that
all of the SI7 legal voters on the re-
monstrance and many of the remain
ing 500 whose names were scratched
off will donate SO a piece, the popular
sum. No one is to be assessed, the co..
tributions are to be voluntary.

GOOD SAMARATIN
IS ARRESTED
Fayette st. Resident Feels
Keenly His Treatment
Because of Kindly Act.

A good samaritan has been placed in
a bad light by the police if the story of
neighbors to John Wahez, who lives in
IT'S Fayette street, is true. Though the
man himself has made no protest his
friends have taken it upon themselves
to set him right with the world and
blot out the stigma which they think
was stamped on his name in the Ham
mond police court last week.
Joe Endres, 76s Walter street. left
his motorcycle in front of a store build
ing on Calumet avenue in the afternoon
only to return a few miutes later and
find that it was missing. At that time
Watez was at work at the Standard
According to the neighbors he did not

when upon returning home from a
friends home he found it lying on its
side by the curb and after moment
deliberation decided to take it into bis

the owner next morning.

He told his wife this and asked her
to call the police in the morning and
inform them Of his find. After he had
gone to sleep his wife saw the police
men with their lights searching the
wards and grass plots. She says that
she called To them asking what they

it might be the motorcycle. As this

policemen try to impress their cniei
with having made clever find in true

Instead of being thanked by the
owner and given the reward ne might
expect wehez was brought into the city
court like a common criminal, his
friends saw. THE TIMES printed the
story as was told in the reports of
nolicemen and as it developed in the
court. but didn't infer that WehaZ was
guilty. as he was discharged when no
case could be proven against him.
