Washington, March G.-OrderS by
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes re-
YOking the industrial alcohol permits
Of the FIei>chmann company, Inc, OF
New York, and eleven Of its agencies
were suspended until tomorrow by IN
ternal Revenue Commissioner Blair.
The orders were suspended, Mr..
Blair said, pending rehearing of the
case. He added that he himself, would
hear the case.
Mr.. Blair'S action was taken with
the approval Of Secretary Mellon, upon
the request Of counsel for the FleiSch-
mann company for an appeal from tie
hearings on the case held in Philadel-
phia before S. +. Rut1cr. former aS$o-
ciate federal prohibition director for
PENNSYLVANIA, upon whose recoHnncn-

consumed in TIE country. NO l;..2e re-
serves are on hand | q .ause the COEl-
pany makes only compressed yeast,
which cannot be kept for more than Il
week or ten days.
Officials of tie company charged
that eight attempts We're made by en-
ployeS of the prohibition bureau TO
eXtort money, and that the revocation
of permits followed the refusal to pay
over the money.
The conference, ii was said did not
consider the possible effect of the e.
vocation orders upon the manufacture
of yeast, but Mr.. Mellon was repre-
scented as believing that methods could
be devised for controlling the alcoholic
by-product, which the Prohibition au-
improper uses by agencies of the
Fleischmann company.

verified to nOn-medical purposes by
FleiSchmann agencies during the las

DECISION Of
INTEREST TO
SUbD|V|DERS
Judge H. |. Crumpacker Is
sues Permanent Injunc-
ton in Realty Case

a decision OF fa--reaching i'm
portance was rendered by Judge
Harry L Crumpacker of the LaPorte
Circuit court IN Hammond yesterday
where he was sitting as special
judge in the case in which the
Madison Terrace Realty CO. sought
to and did enjoin David L. Aiken,
Herman z. Granger and County
Clerk William c. Rose from filing a
mechanics lien. or permitting such
lien to be filed. against all OF the
lots in the Madison Terrace addi-
tion.
The case was one in which Aiken
was sub-contracting tc do the grad
ing for the United Construction Co.
for the streets in Madison Terrace.
Aiken claimed that certain changes
were made in the grade OF the street
under the direction Of an officer OF
the realty company. He demande ed
payment for extras from the realty
company.
His atto-ne threatened TO plaster
lien" on every lot in the subdi-
vision II the amount was not paid
and pointed out that it would be
cheaper to pay the claim than to
stand the additional abstracting
charges on each abstract furnished
in the future that would result
from abstracting the notice OF lien
and its release. This would cost
$500 an abstract for some ESQ abb
stracts
Instead OF submitting to that sort
of a proposition the Madison Ter
race Realty Co. which disclaims any
liability whatsoever on account OF
Aiken's work. employed Glenn D.
Peters of the law firm OF Bomberg-
er. Peters and Morthland and Sc
cured temporary restraining or
der.
Yesterday the case was up for
hearing to make the temporary or
der permanent. Judge Crumpaclxer
decided that the plaintiffs had no
adequate remedy at law to prevent
the 'slander OF title" as 1t is called
other than injunctivc relief and the
Injunction was made permanent.
The court ruled that 1t is not per-
missible to lace a lien on the lots

for work cdne on the streets in
such a subdivision and as the testi-
mony showed that Herman f.

threatened such procedure, the
court issued a permanent injunc-
tion.

way to collect his claim from the

DRY AGENTS
PAY VISIT
TO THE LINE
Saloon Proprietors Found to
Have Attended Funeral"
in a Body

Patrons Of several saloons of
West Hammond were disappointed
yesterday afternoon when they
went to their favorite hangouts and
found the doors locked. Their dis
appointment was turned to SYM
pathy when they read the signs on
the doors:
CLOSED FOR THE DAY
Gone to a Fune1al
Later they learned the truth The
proprietors had become m e y
frightened when the word went
around that their places might be
"pinched" by the government men.
But the precaution was unnecessary
as the federal men had only six
warrants and had them served and
gone before the other fellows put
up their cards.
The saloons were pestered again
yesterday afternoon by one OF those
funny little visits which Chicago
FEDERAL prohibition agents seem to
feel they must make periodically.
Why it's done no one seems 10
know for to date nothing much has
resulted from the raids.
The six saloons visited yesterday
were:
Ben kulczyk's place at the north
corner Of Rimbach ave. and State
Line st.
Otto schneider's place. $40 State
Line st.
c. W. Cordrey's place. SIS State
Line st.
The White Front. Gao State Line.
King John Pociuchanski's place,
EOS State Line st.
Fox and Gels saloon. 1856 State
Line.
.41tivities were confined to the
trip down State Line st. The ofi-
GERS merely walked in and informed
the proprietors that they had war
rants for their arrest. The saloons
" ere not searched. The proprietors
were told TO come to Chicago this
morning and give bond Then the
federal men climbed into their cars
and headed for Chicago.
This is the fourth time the Whit
Front has been in trouble with the
department.
AS soon as the word was passed
around that the federal men were
in town several of the proprietors
of places which were not visited be-
came frightened and put up the
funeral cards. However. their fears
were groundless.

The registration figures announc-
ed yesterday have a portentous
meaning. They spell political OBJ
livion for Hammond. whiting and
East Chicago unless these cities
amalgamate.
Time was when Hammond alone
ruled the county politically, but
them days are gone forever" The
amalgamated cities OF North town
ship would never have their own
way but they would have a voice
in matters in which Gary is now the
alpha and ome ga.
Gary's registration is 1857 -
nearly twice that Of East Chicago
and Hammond combined and only
5000 less than East Chicago. Ham
m o nd and Whiting. Moreover.
Garys population is growing daily
due to the construction of the tube
mills. and there is every reason to
believe that the Steel City will have
a voting strength Of 1900 or $4,000
by the next registration. two years
hence.
If Hammond. East Chicago and
whiting continue to pull apart they
are lost in Lake county politics.
Gary is the capital OF Lake county
today.
The population OF the amalga-
mated cities OF Hammond, East Chi
cago and waiting would be approx
inately 5000 as against Gays
10000. and with the building of the
Jones and Laughlin plant North
townships growth would surely
keep apace of Gary.

whereby each Of the three cities
would maintain Its own tax levy.

financial sacrifice.
