Two car loads of piling arrived
yesterday for the foundation of the office building. They came in late

The drivers encountered quick-sand in driving which will hinder somewhat, and if it proves too troublesome they may have to resort to the use of a "jet". The piling are hauled to the bridge and dumped into the river from where they are snaked out and sharpened ready to be driven.
Fitzgerald Brothers, formerly of Walkerton, Ind., have begun the erection of one of the first permabuildings to be built. The building ia to be a two-story frame structure, 22x90, built on cement block foundation and will be used for a hotel and restaurant. The

While Mrs. Scott was in Chicago
doing some shopping for herself and her little daughter during the day last Saturday, the Wabash tower, lying between Tolleston and here was broken into and a large amount of clothing and other personal efwere stolen. Mrs. Scott is the charming young widow who is night operator at the tower. The tower is along a lonely stretch of the Watrack through the woods about half a mile east of the Tolleston crossing. The work was presumdone by sneak thieves who chanced to be passing there during the day and found the place unoccu-

The report is again current that Batling Nelson is to meet Joe Gans
at Colma, Cal., in the fall. It is said that the contract which Jim Coffroth has secured from the fight
ers provides that Gans must make
133 at ringside the night of the fight. As Gans is now considered a full fledged welter it is thought that he will have considerable trouble in
making the desired weight. Gans, however, is aching to get at the light
weight champion and is continually
asserting that when the time comes
he will make 133.

his bout in Indianapolis, August 10,
Herman, who is to be his opponent,
has also chosen Indiana as the most
desirable place in which to train and will make his headquarters at
Broad Ripple, a resort near Indian
apolis. Associated with him will be
Joe Galligan who is preparing for his

These contests promise to be the
most interesting of any to be held in

Brooklyn Gets 13 Hits Off Spuds
There was a flutter of excitement
around Whiting yesterday afternoon
when it seemed that a strike of the
teamsters was imminent. The cause
of the trouble is Myron Jones, a con
tractor who is said to be decidedly
opposed to the cardinal principals of unionism. Jones has a contrac
to remodel the building on the cor-
ner of Front and 119th streets, oc-
upied by the Kilcullen boarding
house and saloon and owned by
wned by Banker Schrage.
Yesterday the new plate glass win-
dows for the building arrived in
Whiting and its union teamsters at
first refused to handle the big crates
of glass for the anti-union carpenter.
Business Agent Jim Hayes of the
teamsters union was called in to de-
ide what the teamsters had better o about the matter and decided to
call off the threatened strike after several heated interviews with the contractor and the banker.
