Chicago, Oct. 7.-Declaring of mar
tial law at Indiana Harbor and at
East Chicago. and the dispatching of
Federal troops to Gary, Ind, although
no violence had occurred since Satur-
day, marked developments in the steel
strike situation in the Chicago district.
Acting under authority conferred
upon him by Governor Goodrich of
Indiana, Adjutant General Smith, in
command of IL companies of Indiana
state troops on duty in the Indiana
strike zone, declared martial law in a
territory embracing the towns of In
diana Harbor and East Chicago and
extending for five miles in either d.
rection from each of them.
The step was taken, General Smith
said, following indications of trouble
and after consultation with the mayors
of the two towns. A detachment of
approximately 1000 Federal troops
from Fort Sheridan, H., under the
personal command of Major General
Leonard Wood, commander of the
Central department of the army, took
over control of the situation at Gary
following an appeal for aid to General
Wood from Governor Goodrich. Upon
arrival of the Federal troops the state
units which have been distributed
yer the Indiana strike district were
withdrawn from Gary and concentrate
cd in Indiana Harbor and East Chi
cago.
State troops had been sent into the
district after rioting at Gary and In
diana Harbor.

MOULDER LOST LOTS OF
Time FROM HIS WORK
Tanlac Rids Him Of Seven
Years Of Trouble.
Had Almost Lost Hope-Says
Way That He Was Restored
To Health Beats Any
thing He Ever Saw.

'TanIac has rid me of all my trou-
bles, and am sound, we'll man from
head to foot, and for the first time
in seven years 1 enjoy three good,
hearty meals every day. said J. Kirke,
a valued employee of the Avery Co.,
and who lives at 539 Homestead St,
Peoria, the other day.
II have certainly had my share of
suffering during the past six or seven
years." continued Mr.. Kirke, "and
when 1 commenced taking Tanlac 1
had about lost all, hope of ever being
a well man again. had rheumatism
so bad that 1 couldn't cross my legs
without taking my hands and lifting
one leg over the other. The awful
pains l suffered from this rheumatism
was just like a throbbing toothache,
and many times it kept me awake all
night long. My stomach was in
mighty bad condition, too, and nearly
everything l ate would sour shortly
after meals and 1 would be all bloated
up with gas for two or three hours at
a time. Then 1 lost my appetite and
1 just had to force down what little
did eat. The work of a moulder is
hard and it is necessary for a man
in that kind of business to eat plenty
of good substantial food if he stays on
the job, and not being able to do that
1 was forced to lose lots of time from
my work. l just kept getting worse
all the time and weaker every day
all.
"A neighbor told me about this
Tanlac, and said that it had done him
a great deal of good and advised me
to give it a trial. Well, 1 commenced
taking Tanlac just after I had this
talk with my friend and the way 1
have improved beats anything 1 ever
heard of in my life. My rheumatism
is all gone, and all those aches and
pains went with it, and when 1 hit
the bed every night 1 go to sleep and
hardly ever wake up at all during the
night. My stomach is in such fine
condition that 1 never have the least
bit of trouble with what 1 eat, and 1
just want to say right here, that when
meal time comes, L am right there
with big appetite, and eat just any
thing that is put before me, and L
never stop eating until 1 get all
want. Tanlac has made me a strong
man in every way and am more than
glad to recommend it to everybody.
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug o.-Advertisement.
