SHOOTING FOLLOWS AN ALLEGED ROBBERY

lUilroad Employes Quarrel Over Purported Holdup and One Is Wounded,

Albert rede, an employe of the Big iFour railroad, was shot in the right leg Tuesday night by a fellow workiman in the yards near Fruitridge aveinue. The trouble terminating in the i fshooting is said to have resulted from :|a holdup staged last Saturday night •in which Omer Dill, 28 yyars old, of :i900 Nor^h Ninth street, was held up siby Peck. The affair of Saturday night, sacoording to the story told by Dill in

City Court Wednesday morning, was :a reality instead of a joke as purported by reck, and it is alleged that Peck in an attempt to make it appear that the first attempt was a joke attempted a real joke as aa aftermath to diaillusion Dill.

Boh men were in a watch house at the time of the second affair, and Dill savs that he and Peok qukrreled, and that he accused Peck of holding him up. He asserts that Peck struck him in the mouth in the presence of a railroad detective, and that he then drew a gun and shot Peck in the right leg. Peck was taken to St- Anthony's hospital after the shooting and later was removed to his home.

Dill wa* released without bond, and ordered to reappear in ten days, pending the outcome of the shooting. Deputy Prosecutor John Jeffers ordered the affair investigated and charges may be filed against Peck. At present Dill is charged with assault and batr tery with intent to kill.

M. COSTIN GIVEN CUM Of BK

Railroad Man, Well known In Terre Haute, Beoomes Figilte In Na-- \t tional Plan.

E. M. Costin, general superintendent of th« Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis (Big Four) railroad, whose appointment as federal manager of the Big Four system was announced yesterday by A. H. Smith, of New York, regional director of railroads, Wednesday made public plans for doubletracking and other Improvement work, to be started immediately by the Big Four, requiring an expenditure of approximately*!! 1,000,000. $5,000,000 to B» Used.

Approximately $6,000,000 of the sum to be spent on improvements by the Big Four will be used for double-track-ing improvements. The plart" is one adopted for the purpose of increasing the facilities of the road for handling troops and other government needs.

A number of double track improvements are contemplated for the Cleveland division of the road, which includes most of the property in Indiana.

In addition to these improvements, the plans call for the construction of a $500,000 yard in Cincinnati-

the

building of a roundhouse and enfclne terminal at Gallon, O., at a cost of about $1,000,000.

The appointment of' Mr. Coistin »s federal manager of the Big Four and the subordinate roads, and the other appointments announced by the. regional director of railroads, illustrates the steps which the government is taking to divorce the operation of the railroads from the financial owners of the lines throughout the Country.

Power Is Increased.

v

Air. Costin will assume a position' which means a great widening of responsibility and power. He will resign as general superintendent of the road and sever all connections with the rot the representative of the owners. As general superintendent Mr. Costin has been in chargc of the actual operating and of the road having to do with the movement of trains.

As federal manager of the system, according to the government plan. Mr. Costin will assume control of all departments, including the operating, legal, auditing and qther departments formerly not in his jurisdiction.

B. C. Byers, who is now assistant to Mr. Costin, probably will be appointed general superintendent to succeed Mr. Costin. H. A. Worcester, of Cincinnati, who has been general manager of the Big Four, has been appointed district federal manager of railroads for the Indiana and Ohio district.

Mr. Costin has been connected in the railroad business for thirty years. He began his railroad career as a train dispatcher for the Big Four and rose, through various positions to the one which he now occupies. He has been general superintendent since 1916 and was assistant general superintendent from 1313 to 1916.

YES SIR ME ON AN AEROPUUff ROUTE

If Sir. Hurst Can Raise $250,000 To Build Something To Run On the Route.

Our public roads were too early termed "highways." But it was not dreamed in the days when such roads were being cut over various parts of the earth that there would be air routes some day, unless, of course, such routes had to do with the angels. So now— in the day of the aeroplane—it has been necessary to name the air routes airways! It would seem that "high" would not be an improper term to apply to these new thoroughfare*, does it?

According to an airway map displayed by James W. Hurst, who is promoting the sale of stock for the manufacture of,» machine by himself, Terre Haute is at the junction of future air routes called the Lincoln Airway the Langley Airway.

Hurst announced Tuesday that, at pres-ent all efforts were being used to raise the $250,000 necessary to erect a plant and manufacture the machine in Terre Haute. It is called the tandem biplane. From the picture of the finished machine, it is cigar shaped: has a wing span of 50 feet length of 33 feet five inches the distance between the-Wings is eight feet will carry two tons net load is equipped with two 200-horse power motors and carries fuel for twelve hours. "We never Intend to go into the market to sell t,he planes," Hurst said. "We expect to own and operate all our own planes."

Putting Terre Haute on airways ought to be good summ^f sport. It doesn't cost anything.

Laura had once* said that *he onlybright moments in that sordid place was when she was called to tne telephone., (There was always the hope of the unexpected. "Hello!" it was Laura's voice. "Oh, I'm glad you're in.f Warren's gone to Philadelphia, and won't be home till late. Can't you come over and have dinner with me?" "I'd love to, but I'd only depress you. I'm too blue to go anywhere." "Then that's just the time to conic. It's not six, take the subway—you'll get here by half-past. Don't dress—• come just as you are."

Helen was keenly sympathetic 'With Laura's long struggle to get a foothold in New York. Knowing that her cheap, haphazard restaurant meals were not overnourishipg, she tried to have ner often for dinner. "It seems I'm always coming here to air my troubles," bitterly, when Halt an hour later she threw her hat on Helen's bed and sank wearily 09 the window-seat. "No, don't sit down there. Dinner's ready—we'll go right in."

Even under the shaded lights ia the dining room, Laura looked wretchedly pale. Helen poured her a glass of sherry. "Well," pushing back the empty glass and staring at it grimly, 'Tin out of a job again." "Oh, no!" breathed Helen. "Why, I thought they'd reduce your salary for the summer, l^ut that you were sure of work. "That's what I thought until 2 o'clock today, when Mr. Murphy called me in. He very politely handed me my pay envelope and said my services were no longer needed.'* -But why? What reason did he give?" "None." "And you didn't ask him?" "No. I was too stunned. But afterwards I went to the director himself. Oh. I wish I hadn't—I only humiliated myself for nothing."

She paused, stirring moodily at her untasted soup. "I asked him point blank if it was my work. I told him I was at tne studio every day, but they wouldn't give me the parts—I'd been in only two pictures in Ujxce weeks- said 1

That they were putting on a seven reel feature, and thought it best to make certain changes in the company. If he could use me later on, he'd send for me. He was just letting me down easy. But I know," fiercely, "it's that assistant director." "Mr. Breton? The one you said wanted to take you out to supper?" "Yes. He tries that sort ol!^ thing with every girl who takes his fancy. If they don't stand for it—they don't stay." "Oh!" *"I suppose I might have jollied him along—but I couldn't. I loathed him—I almost told him so. 1 Ever since he's been working against me. He assigns the parts in the pictures, and I knew if he didn't use me, I wouldn't be kept on." "Don't talk about It any morse until you've had your dinner," soothed Helen. ••You'll feel better then." "It means beginning all over,** moodily, "going from one studio to another trying to get work. And in the pictures—it's harder now than ever." "But you've got some money saved?" anxiously. "How couTd save Wltfi all my fcTothes to get? They don't furnish anything for the modern scenes. And you have to have good clothes or you don't get the parts. That's why I went back to a rooming house, to try to save—I felt this was coming." "You're not eating a thing," pleaded Helen. "Is that too rare?" "Oh, don't ask me to eat!" her hand at her throat. "It manes me sick to think of starting out again to look for work. It's too hard! It's too hard!" "But you're a good stenographer. Tou can always fall baclj on that." "Yes," bitterly, "with every employment agency flooded with girls willing to work for almost nothing.
