Tho burden of the complaint Of GER
tain Senators against the Bulkhead
repeater bill in the recent Legisla-
ure, and as they repeatedly said their
reason for opposition to the repeater
was that Il was called up and re-
ported from committee In the House,
for passage at once, to use the fav-
orite expression, like a rife shot"
They knew and chose to ignore the
fact that they and the public largely
knew that the repeal OF that Bulk
head act had been largely discussed
for months and for several years past.
In the first place, the Bulkhead Act.
was approved for passage twelve
years ago. by the Council Of Will
mington and was passed through the
Legislature OF 1901, protected from
public view and discussion almost as
safely as the aforesaid rife shot.
Tho proposed Bulkhead Act was
presented to tho stated meeting OF the
Council Of Wilmington, February 21,

As a result of Mike Tobias and Mike
Bundra of whiting being fined each 81
and costs in Judge Atchison's court at
Whiting on charges of assault and bat
terry yesterday, the two defendants
swore out a warrant for the arrest or
the complaining witness, William So
roka, in Judge Ames court in Ham
mond this morning. The trial will
come UP Wednesday evening in Judge
Ames' court, where Soroka will face
charges of provocation and disturbing
a religious meeting.
All of the cases resulted from dis
turbance at the Greek Catholic church
at whiting in which the three men
took an active part. On Monday even
ing a week ago the beginning of the
Greek Christmas. midnight mass was
held. William Soroka decided to join

| church. Scroka marched down to the
altar to kiss the bible which is held by
the priest But Rev. Balogh, 1t is said,
refused Soroka that privilege, pulling
| the sacred book away. At this rebuff
| Soroxa walked back to the rear of the
church where he was met by the two

BUILDING BARN
FOR AIR LINE
AT GOODRUM

The construction of car barn at
Goodrum has been ordered by the Chi
cago-New York Air Line company. 1t
will contain two tracks, with necessary
pits and shop for light repairs, and
will take care of six cars. This with
the present car barn at South Laporte
will enable the company to get along
two or three years. after which time
permanent housing arrangements will
have to be made in keeping with the
increased business of the road and
with ample provision for the future.
During the five years in which the
Air Line power station at South La
porte was in operation the cinders
were saved religiously for ballasting
purposes. These have all been utilized
since October, there being enough to
ballast about mile and half of
track
Five box cars and another 1ocomo-
