Mrs. Ed. Pickards April fool party
of Tuesday evening was in every sense
an April fool event. In the first place
the fifty women who attended. found
their hostess not at home when they
reached her residence in Forsythe ave-
nue.. They discovered a card. how
ever, which suggested that they try
Mrs. A. G.. Schlieker's. The party
linked" for the Schlieker home only to
be fooled again Finally it was sug-
gested that Mrs. Pickard might be
found on the third floor of the Schliek-
er building. and this proved the correct
cue. The elusive hostess was prevail
ed upon to come out of hiding and the
party adjourned to Mrs Schlieker's s,
where an April fool lunch was served.
and all sorts of fool games were in
dulged in. The guests all wore fools
caps instead of the usual millinery.

FREE RAW WOOL
IN NEW TARIFF
Agreed Upon in Conferences
With President.

Washington. d. c., April s.-Removal
of all tariff from raw wool has been
agreed upon between President Wilson
and members of the house committee
on ways and means as the result OF
conferences that ended yesterday The
present plan, which will have the
unanimous Endorsement of the demo-
cratic members of the committee, pro-
vides that wool shall be placed on the
free list an end for which the free
wool democrats Of the house have
fought for years.
The concession to President Wilson
and the free wool advocates takes the
place of the Is per cent duty which the
committee had agreed upon. This, in
turn. was a reduction from the 20 per
cent duty Of the democratic wooden re-
vision bill which passed the house last
summer, but failed to become a law.
The free wool agreement. it was claim
ed by democrats, Is expected to bring
Secretary of State Bryan into full ac-
cord with the tariff revision program.
| Free wool democrats have pressed
| their fight before President Wilson in
| conferences in which Representatives
| Harrison OF New York and Rainey Of
! Illinois, both members of the ways and
means committee, have been the lead
| ing figures. Representative Harrison.
backed by Mr.. Bryan, made an ardent
| fight in the last congress to secure in
dorsement of the free wool policy. The
understanding is that the ways and
means committee will present its bill
with the free wool provision incorpor-
| ated and with a unanimous report from
! its democratic members and that the
president will make known his thor
| ough accord with 1t.

or a tunnel, be built over or under the
canal What he asked for was fran
chise contingent upon the actual open
ing of Dickey place and the building
of the bridge or tunnel. After these
things had been complied with his
company would go ahead with it's line
to Whiting. He expressed himself as
confident of the support of Whiting, in
case East Chicago and Indiana Harbor
granted the franchise.
:; He assured the club that while the
Gary and Interurban were anxious to
secure the franchise. 1t meant even
more to the people of Whiting and In
diana Harbor that the franchise be
granted. than it did to the company.
: Mayor Schlieker was next called up
on and expressed his views as above set
forth. Sam Bonante, w. B. Van Horne.
Newton Hembroff and H. C. Rutledge
and others all expressed themselves In
favor of the project. giving good rea-
sons why they thought the measure a
good one.
Mr. Gavit was asked what his COM
pany intended to do about building that
part of its line from Guthrie street to
the Lake Shore depot. There had been
a meeting of the property owners
across the Pennsylvania tracks. that
very AFTERNOON, opposing the granting
of further favors to the Gary and In
terurban. because rumor had prevail
ed that the Gary and Interurban was
not going to make good on this part oil
its franchise Mr.. Gavit explained tina,
there was nothing to this. His com
pany he said was at the present time
: negotiating with the South Shore peo-
pie for the removal of the high power
wire over about 100 feet of trackage
they own on a switch here. and as soor
this is disposed of. the building o.
the remainder of the line to the Lake
Shore depot would be pushed. Material
for tn crossing of the Pennsylvania
tracks is already on the ground. which
was in itself evidence that the Gar,
and Interurban had not forgotten it,
obligations in locality whose property
owners thought their interests were be
; ing neglected.

DAMAGE DONE TO FACTORIES
IN EAST BY FLOODS

Although fifty blast furnaces and
many large steel plants were compelled
to suspend temporarily on account of
foods only two furnaces in Cleveland
have found it necessary to blow out.
Nearly all other furnaces are already
at work. and steel plants and finishing
mills are rapidly being placed In con-
dition to resume" says the Iron Trade
Review. 1.-The property loss to these
industries will not be very large but
some foundries and machine shops in
the food districts will suffer severely.
Selling in the Central West was almost
completely stopped for a week. but is
row being slowly resumed.
Some requests for suspension of
shipments are being made and in
diligence in settling bills is asked by
some customers in the flooded districts
II is expected that the demand for
structural shapes. reinforcing bars
and other material will soon be active.
Gary Bridge Plant Rushed.
The American Bridge company has
not recently promised delivery in less
than six months on structural material.
and few independent makers do better
than this. except upon the payment of
airge premiums Hence the question Of
where structural material will be OBJ
tanned for replacing building and
bridges destroyed by recent high wat
ers is a very important one The melt
of pig iron by foundries has not de-
creased to any appreciate extent. and
1t seems probable that the effect of the
catastrophe will be TO strengthen the
pig iron market.
During the past week the principal
buying has been in Eastern territory

the highest number of votes at the last
preceding city election. So he APP
pointed the republican and turned down
the progressive.
81 believe 1 am right" he said, but
l may be wrong. In any case, 1T is for
the courts to determine. There would
have been a lawsuit, no matter what
might have done, so 1 thought I would
put it up to the progressives to start
the fight to test the law, rather than
place that burden the republicans
The progressives say they will insti
: tute legal proceedings to have their
man placed in the office. The suit
! probably will take the form of a man
damus. to compel the city clerk to is
sue the commission to the Progressive.
but it may be that 1t will take the form
of an injunction suit to prevent the re-
publican from holding office. In either
event, the whole question will be pre-
esnted to the court for decision, and
the decision will be of much interest
throughout the state.
No time has yet been set for the
city nominations. but there is a great
deal of talk about candidates for
mayor. The democrats have three can
didates thus far. Joseph E. Bell. lawyer
and follower of Crawford Fairbanks
the Terre Haute brewer: John J. Kee-
gan, a labor leader and a member OF
the House of Representatives. and
Thomas Meeker. a hotel proprietor
Charles A. Bookwalter is the only re.
publican much talked of for the repub-
slican nomination. The progressives are
talking of Thomas Howe, president OF
Butler College; w. H. Stewart, a book
seller and w. d. Headrick. a lawyer
Headrick made a speaking campaign OF
the state last fall
From several places in the state wore
has been received that the progressive:
either have made city nominations oil
are planning to make them. In thi.
city an effort is being made by som,
of the progressive leaders to select
non-partisan ticket, the main idea be
ing efficiency rather than party affilia
tion, but it is question whether thi.
plan will be carried out.

Gary Supplies Coke.


'In the Chicago district the principal
trouble experienced by the mills is due
to delayed shipments of pig iron. coke
and billets One of the local mills may
be forced to suspend on account or the
scarcity of the latter material and the
Wisconsin Bridge company has banked
two stacks owing to a lack of coke.
Merchant mills in this territory will
experience no difficulty as far as TAX
ing care of their customers is concern
cd, as the corporations mills are ade-
auately supplied from the Gary coke
owens.
Inland Plant short.
1.-The Inland Steel company at Indiana
Harbor has three weeks supply of
coke and months supply of pig iron.
The greatest trouble will be experience
led by some of the local merchant pig
iron furnaces. one furnace interest re-
potrng supply of coke sufficient to
last only two days. One of this COM
panys furnaces. however. will be kept
in operation with local by-product
coke.
LAS 90 per cent of the foundries in
this. territory use local coke. they will
suffer very little in this respect and it
has been found possible to care for
many consumers besides thos who
have contracts with the producers on
account of the cessation of the dema nd
for domestic coke. Should local stacks
be compelled to suspend, however. q
scarcity of iron may efelt and many
smelters who have contracts with Ohio
furnaces have come into the market for
iron for prompt shipment. 1t seems
probable that the local market will be
materially strengthened. especially fol-
prompt shipment, but as yet prices
have not been changed"

Ramsay Decides.

Ramsay Decides.
The republican city chairman sent TO
Ramsay the name of Schuyler A. Haas
for the republican member. The pro-
gressive chairman sent in the names of
Elias ID. Salisbury as the progressive
member. Inasmuch as the democrats
were clearly entitled to one member, 1t
was plain that the republicans and pro-
gressives could not both land. So 1t
was up to the city clerk to decide which
one should have the place.
Ramsay is republican. He took the
position that the election law. means
what 1T says with regard to the APP
pointment of county boadrs. but thai
with reference to city boards the law
meant that the two members should be
chosen from the two parties which cas-
