MISHAWAKA DAY WAS
GENERALLY OBSERVED
Schools and Many Business
Places Closed. Jake HeSSIer
Touched" for $50.

Mishawakans attended the opening
Of the fs9S in generous numbers and
for the aoncs the city was completely
deserted during the afternoon. The
few stores tina. remained open didn't
do enough business 10 make ii worth
their while end those that closed had
the satisfaction of knowing that they
missed nothing by locking their doors
during the afternoon hours. The To-
cal school children were given full
half holiday and went by the hundreds
TO the fair grounds where they en-
1oyed their free treat Of admission 10
the utmost limit. During the evening
the city literally empted itself into
Springbrook park. The street railway
company ran a two minute service
during the entire afternoon and late
into the night, taking care OF the I'M
mense traffic, while numerous monde
script iitneys got a generous share of
the traffic The fact that local citizens
did so well in observing South Bend
Mishawaka day at the fair was most
gratifying TO Otto +. Lang, who since
the inception Of the enterprise. has
taken an active part in bringing it to
a successful issue, and who naturally
feels elateS over the results attained
so far, on account Of his responsible
ity in placing so many shares of the
concern throughout Mishawaka and
it's envir0ns.
was the loss OF a pOcketboOk con-
tanning $4,000, and which belonged to
Jake Kessler erstwhile citizen OF
Mishawaka, now in Woodland, south
Y OF the city. Jake told the local police
about his loss Tuesday night but has
sense enough to know that his chances
OF seeing his wallet again are mighty
Nslim. IL not only contained money
20 the above amount but hidden away
in its recesses were several family
heirlooms in the shape Of valuable
trinkets which had been in the Kess-
Ter family since long before the days
of family reunions OF course, Jake
does not know where he lost the
money, but has the shadow of a sus-
piciOn that it was taken from his hip
pocket while he was in the grand
stand absorbed in the races. The
local police force again sounded n
warning Tuesday night TO those who
are inclined to be careless in taking
care of their money while visiting at
the fair
The News-Times purse of $1,000
which is to be competed for at the
track this afternoon Is going to draw
even a bigger crowd OF local people
than went to the park Tuesday. Now
that the fair has had such an aus
piciOus opening, the crowds from this
city and the country districts sur
rounding are likely to increase in vol
bration. Thursday afternoon the
Dodge Mfg. Co. will close its big plant
in order to give its many hundreds OF
employees an opportunity of going to
SpringbrOok, while several of the
other concerns will allow their hands
to get off during the week at different
times.

NEW YORK BANKS
WILL HELP LOAN
Biggest Gotham Houses Invited
to Participate in Raising
Billion Dollars.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-The pig
gest banking houses in New York
having German connections are ex-
pected to accept an invitation TO par
ticipate in floating the $1,000, 900, 900
loan Cor the allies.
These bankers regard the loan, not
from political but from a strictly
American business point of view.
Members of the Anglo French COM
mission appeared displeased Tuesday
when they learned that such firms
as Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and j. and W.
Seligman & Co. had not been taken
into council by the bankers here
handling the negotiations. And it is
gathered that no time will be lost in
inviting every responsible banking
house to join.
1t can be stated authoritatively that
nearly every so-caled German bank
ing firm in New York city is much
less rabid than is popularity supposed.
The Lusitania incident angered many
of them.
Z. S. First Is Stand.
All firms are understood to take
the view that the first concern OF the
United States must be to foster it's
own commerce, no matter who may
be benefited.
Basil 2. Blackett, a member of the
commission, when told that no prom
inent German-American fnanciers
had attended the reception in the
Morgan library and that some re-
sentiment was felt, replied:
1T is unfortunate if any impress
sion has gone out that there was any
intention to slight any one"
Mr.. Blackett added:
II don't know who is responsible
for inviting those who attended the
meeting in Mr.. Morgan's library"
James ]. Hill Immediately after
his visit to the offices of j. p. Nor
gan & Co. went to see Mr.. Schiff at
Kuhn Loeb q Co.'S offices, where
they discussed the loan.
MT. Hill, after the talk, merely
said:
Mr.. Shift is a very cd friend and
I had not seen him for a long time"

Be Overruled, Says
Dingeman
-ByLeO.

Corporation Counsel Dingeman's
ruling that under a charter provision
an application for a pension. after
having been once denied by the pen
sion commission, cannot again be
reheard by order of the common
council, will have its effect in help
ing to eliminate wire-pulling in
reaching for the pension fund. The
ruling was made, Monday morning,
Oh the petition Of Ida, widow Of
Peter J. Redmond, for a rehearing
OIL her application which had been
previously denied by the commits
sion.
THE charter plainly states that
the action Of the commission Is final,
and the council has 10 authority to
order rehearing," said Dingeman
Peter J. Redmond died March l6,
1914. Two years before his death.
he was shot and badly wounded
while In the performance of his
duty. but in the hearing there was
testimony to show that the wound
was not directly OF indirectly the
cause Of his death. The application
was denied at that time. and the
petition for rehearing was denied
Monday morning, upon the advice
OF the corporation counsel.
The commission also received the
application of the widow o. Patrol
man Frank PiotrowcM He died
Sept. Is. 1918. The widow said she
delayed making application for near
ly two years because she thought at
the first she could get along with
cut aid from the city. She has four
children. two. four. eight and twelve
years of age.
Her spplica ton for relief from the
pension fund was based on the state
merit that her husband was kicked
In the stomach while attempting to
make an arrest in 1907. and died six
years later from ulcers of the stom-
ach. lie never made a report 10 the
department concerning his injury.
The commission gave the widow I'M
til Oct. TO produce witnesses in
support Of her application. Both
Mrs. Redmond and Mrs. Piotrowcki
employed legal representatives TO
appear before the commission for
them.
