Deputy sheriffs were told that the auto in which the injured persons were riding swerved directly in front of the truck. The auto was demolished. Clothing and other luggage in the car was strewn 100 yards along the highway. PERMISSION ASKED FOR REDUCING GAS RATES Michigan City and New Carlisle Would Be Affected by Cuts. Gas rate reductions for patrons of the Northern Indiana Public Service Company in Michigan City, Long Beach, Ogden, New Carlisle and adjacent territory will mean a saving of $24,000 a year, it was estimated by counsel for the company In asking permission of the Indiana public service commission to make the reductions. Morse Dellplain, president of the company, announces the cheaper gas will be of higher heating value as a supply being obtained from Calumet region oil refineries is being mixed with the coke oven product. The company has filed two other petitions with the commission to permit revision of electric rates for summer cottage residents at Lake James, Crooked Lake end Bass Lake.
