HEIGHT WATCHMAN
HAS CLOSE CALL
Escapes Serious Bullet In.
jury From Unknown As.
sai|ant by Ducking.

Had Edgar c. Stevens, so, night
watchman at the Hecht Co. ware
house, 613 G street, ducked half an
inch less or a fraction of a second
later early today, he probably would
not have lived to tell about it.
Fired at by an unknown assailant
from corner of a dimly lighted room
on the second floor of the warehouse
Stevens was struck by bullet which
grazed his forehead and cut a shallow
furrow several inches back through
his hair, but failed to penetrate the
skull. After being shot, he tussled
with his assailant, who tried to tie
him in blanket; made his way back
into the elevator and left the building
via fire escape leading from the
roof. The assailant ran down to the
first floor, broke through a window
and escaped.
At Casualty Hospital, where Ste
vens was taken for treatment, he said
Il was making my rounds and just
as opened the door after stopping
the elevator heard noise ano
6ucked just as some one in the dark
blazed away. The bullet knocked me
back and the man tried to put blan.
ket over my head. I was too much
for him though and broke loose. ]
then ran into the elevator and slam
med the door," Stevens said he
listened for time after going into the
elevator and then ran it to the tor
floor, made his way from the building
by the fire escape and called police.
Police believe the man who fired the
shot had hidden in the building pre-.
paratory to breaking into safe, wher
surprised by the watchman's ap-
proach. Stevens was unable to de.
termine whether the assailant was &C.
companied by another man. Stevens
home is at 244 Eighth street south.

Kern Insists Railroads Must
Pay Share on Grade
Elevations.

Mayor John w Kern today said
he will use legal pressure to compel
unwilling railroad officials to pay
1914, 454 toward the expense of the
proposed 100000 South Side track
elevation project.
This course of action was de-
cided upon when the Mayor learned
the railroads would not make vol
untary contribution toward buying
materials under the works progress
rules.
If the move is successful, Marion
County will pay SLOPES and the
city will meet the $234,22 balance
The labor costs will be met by a
WPA grant.
Under terms of the 1923 state
track elevation law, the Mayor said
the Works Board can start grade
crossing elimination work and COM
pei the railroads to pay so per cent
of the cost and the county to pay
IL per cent.
The Works Board may be asked,
Mayor Kern indicated, to pass such
a. resolution this week, II 1t is found
that a general resolution, adopted
by the board in 1925, to cover all
grade crossings, is not sufficient
