Here You see Industrial Hammond,
or large share OF it, as It appeared
in 1883. The old Hammond packing
plant. the city's leading industry and
only excuse for existence, was going
strong then. but the ones pictured
above represent the first attempt to
make Hammond something more than
a one-industry place.
In this compact group are the
original Hammond distillery. which
occupied the large square buildings to
the left. the planning mill and ium-
Der yard, occupy ing the foreground.
and a slaughter house located in the
building at the rivers edge and i'm
medlately behind the planning mill.
These Industries operated by NJ. NJ
Towle and w. H Gostlin, were located
on the north bank OF the river on both
sides Of Holman street. The lumber
yard is on the west side OF the street
and the distillery and killing house
occupy the present side OF the Simplex
plant OF the American steel foundries.
From these industries came four OF
the necessities Of the day, meat, shoes.
lumber and whiskey. The lumber yard
was located there in order that the
shiploads of boards and fence posts
might be unloaded at the dock which
lined the waters edge. The picture
shows two boats, one a steam launch
and the other a lake sailing vessel

As result cf & gun battle Thursday
night st Chicago Aefghts. the police
Of that city, cooperating with the
Hammond police have been able TO
land three men who were responsible
for At least half q dozen holdups IN
the south part OK Hammond during the

Donald Nelson, 554 Merrill avenue,

Heights police while Vernon Schultz,
same address, and Mike Yurchik, 1923
Columbia avenue, were today taken to
the Jail at Crown Point, after being
arrested by Hammond officers.
Thursday evening patrolmen At Chi
cago Heights noticed two young men
on the opposite side Of the street act
ing in a suspicious manner. The police
men started to- cross the street to
question them when the boys opened
fire with revolvers and then ran. The
police gave chase and fired several
shots. They caught Nelson, but his
companion escaped.
Hammond police were notified TO
watch for a machine which was COM
ing from Chicago Heights. 1t was met
as it entered Hammond and Schultz
was found in it with Yurchik. Yes
terday Yurchik was identified by the
Chicago Heights police as the man

MAN DECLINES
SUSPENDED
SENTENCE
Edward Krieger, Of Gary, Pre-
fers To Serve Sentence and
Be Done With II.

The unusual spectacle Of a man re-
fusing to accept 8 suspended jail sent
ence was presented this morning in
the Hammond city court when Edward
Krieger. 1549 Delaware street. Gary,
who was arrested Thursday by federal
agents. was tried for having liquor in
his possession.
At the hearing it developed that
Krieger is one OF Gary's flock of con-
stables and runs a soft drink parlor.
The court had announced his inten-
tion Of giving nim fine of 500 and
costs ana a suspended sentence OF SIX
months on the penal farm. The ques-
tion was granted on information that
Krieger was getting out of the sort
drink business.
Then Joe Conroy, attorney for
Kieger, obeictea. lie did not wish d
suspended sentence hanging over his
client. He said that Krieger's predic.
ament was the result of the machina-
tions or a couple of enemies In Gary,
placing no blame of course on the Of
fcers who had arrested him. He said
that with SIN months sentence
suspended. these enemies would at
once get busy and see that krieger
was pulled in again soon on some
technical violation and he would have
the time TO serve. He preferred to
have his client serve thirty days and
have il over with.
This suited the court SO Krieger
paid the fine and accepted his jail
term.
Ell Munjas, 1910 Beech street. In
diana Harbor, was also tried this
morning. He vas arrested January
% by federal agents. On hearing the
evidence the cont gave him s10a and
costs and elk months suspended sent
ence. Munias has already sold his
soft drink place but must report back
on March Is.
