ficials told the men that there was nothing doing, but they refused to take this for an answer and started to break through the gates. A squad of police soon after arrived on the scene and dispelled the mob which had gathered. The majority of the men were foreigners. The company's officials are now trying to find out who started the rumor so they can make a vacancy for cue man. Where THE TIMES May Be Had.

The South Chicago police were yesterday asked to locate the following persona who have been missing since yesterday noon: LEO CLANCY, age 20, dark complexioned, dark hair, dark eye3; height, 5 feet 10 inches. Last seen going down Ninety-second street. JOHN 'OBIUENSKI, 8708 Houston avenue, age 4 years, wore brown suit and was last seen in the neighborhood of Eighty-eighth street. Both of the above missing parties were found later last evening. Another Harbinger of Spring. Another evidence that spring Is really here may be determined by the large number of houses appearing in a new dress a fresh coat of paint. John Heyman, the paint man, 9104 Erie avenue, is responsible for a portion of the existing conditions. Some of the prettiest designs of wall paper in town may be found in his place of business. These days he is putting on both paper and paint, and in a manner that goes farther, goes on easier, goes longer pretty good way to measure the cost, isn't it? Dynamite Goes Off. Storing. dynamite in manholes Is not a very safe proposition, but just the same it was done by workmen who were putting in water pipes in Calumet Heights. Three boxes of the dynamite were stored in one of the manholes, and today a man was sent to take them away. The whole hill was in danger, while the explosive was stored there, but nobody knew 5t was there. It might have caused considerable loss of life and many hundred of dollars of damage to property if it was touched off. Attends Theater; Loses Watch. John Brooks, living at 7920 Cottage Grove avenue, whjle walking along Cottage Grove avenue and Ninetieth street, was held up and robbed of $10 and a silver watch. He was returning home from the theater at 10 o'clock when the robbery occurred. The robbers had masks on and made their immediate escape after the robbery. Structural Mill Closes. The structural mill, known by the men who work at the place as the "north end," was shut down for an indefinite time Sunday morning at 6 o'clock. The structural mill employs about 190 men when running full force, but when this department shut- down only forty-six men remained. Briefs. The two-story frame building owned by P. Lucas, located at 232 Ninety-second street, was totally destroyed by fire last evening. There were no occupants in the house at the time. Alderman Derpa says that the United Societies are helping him a whole lot in this campaign and beyond a doubt they will secure many votes for the alderman in his present campaign. The head officials of the United Societies down town are making preparations to send out a letter to every voter in the city of Chicago asking them to support the United Societies' candidate. In the Eighth 'ward Alderman John Derpa has been supported by that organization. The democrats are making great preparations for their largest rally meeting of the season, which will be held this evening at Jones" hall Windsor Park. The chief speakers of the evening will be ex-Mayor Edward Dunne, Carter II. Harrison and J. Ham. Lewis. This meeting will probably be the headliner of the democrats held this season. Representative John J. Poulton and Alderman John S. Derpa will also be on the speakers list. ' Undoubtedly a large number of north end voters will pack the hall this evening. While at work at the Marktne Foundry works in West Pullman, John Stevens was seriously Injured when he fell from the top of a box car which he was repairing. In falling Stevens hit his head on an Iron bar, rendering him unconscious. He was taken to the county hospital where there Is little hope for his recovery.

The funeral of Cora Hogan, who died at her home, corner Princeton avenue and Garfield boulevard, Chivago, Thursday noon after a two week's illness with cerebro-menlngiis, was held here Monday forenoon at 10 o'clock from St. Joseph's church in Dyer. Rev. Joseph Flach officiated. From the church the sorowing relatives proceeded to St. Joseph's cemetery, where the remains were laid to rest. Miss Ilogan's popu larity was attested by the presence of a large number of friends who attended the funeral. A wealth of floral offerings added evidence to the devotion of her friends. Miss Hogan was born on the old Hogan farm near Crown Point, August 19, 1889. Later the family moved to Dyer; where they lived for a number of years. After the death of the father, which occurred some six years ago, the family moved to their present home in Chicago. There Miss Hogan studied stenography, which she followed for some time. For the past year and a half she suffered from nervous trouble. Some two weeks ago she was attacked with meningitis which, sad to say, resulted in her death. - She leaves a mother, seven sisters, Molly, Emma, Margaret, Rose, Eliza-

HOT FIGHT BE- j GINS AT CAPITAL. i (Continued from page 1). j These followed a short address by Chairman Chaney, who spoke when taking the gavel from Congressman Overstrect. All the speakers aroused great enthusiasm, particularly Senator 3everidge and Givernor Hanly. The latter was followed closely as the word had gone forth that he would say things worth hearing. , Must be Postponed. j It had been hoped that the committee cn resolutions might be ready to report a platform before adjournment but opinion existed that this would have to go over until tomorrow morning. The temperance plank, it is predicted, will be for a local option law with the county as a unit, the proposed law to be supplementary to the present remonstrance laws. This is exactly what the temperance and anti-saloon forces of the state had been seeking. The brewers and liquor dealers were doing everything In their power to bring out a declaration less specific and less sweeping and it was possible that a disagreement among the members of the resolution committee would be followed by a fight on the convention floors. Temperance Force Meet. The temperance forces were determined -to thrash the matter out in open convention if they did not .get what they desired from the committee. The platform will also indorse the state and national administrations; it will declare for a revision of the tariff immediately after the presidential election and commend forestization, improvement of the waterways, economy in public administration of affairs, antitrust activity, etc. Will Indorse Fairbanks. The platform will Indorse Vice President Fairbanks for the presidency and instruct the Indiana delegates to the national convention at Chicago to vote for the vice president as long as he may wish their support Ante-nomination talk today was to the effect that James E. Watson, of Rushville. or Hugh Miller, of Columbus, would come up the most formidable for the governorship. It was doped that Watson would lead on the first ballot. His friends asserted that he would cross the dead line on the second ballot. This was vigorously denied by Charles W. Miller, of Goshen, who declared that he would be close be hind Watson on the first ballot, that he would tie him on- the second, pass him on the third and win out on the fourth. Hugh Miller's friends were declaring that he held the same fortuitous position held by Thomas E. Marshall last week; that Watson and Charles Miller would get into a deadlock and that the party would have to seek a candidate distasteful to neither faction. WHEELER. Mrs. Emma Pickering:, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. L. K. Johnston, returned to her home In Oak Park, 111., Tuesday morning. "William Parden moved his family into Mrs. Taylor's store building in South Wheeler, Wednesday. Mrs. Z. H. Fifleld and son. Hugo, were Chicago visitors Wednesday. Mrs.' T. H.

LIFE SAVERSJ3N DECK Crews Return to Their Posts at South Chicago and Elsewhere. At 12 o'clock tonight the South Chi cago life-6aving station will reopen for ine spring and summer season after a rest of four months. The local lifesaving station is at the foot of Ninetysecond street and Harbor avenue, and is in charge of Captain A. G. Morrison who has eight men under him. In all thirty-five life-savinar stati will reopen this evening along the lake. iast year the local station saved several lives by their efficient service and the men are going back to work this evening hoping that they will not have any occasion to take a cold plunge so early in the season. An effort is being made throughout Windsor Park to secure a branch station at Seventy-fifth or Seventy-sixth street. At the foot of both streets large crowds congregate each summer and the only life-savers on deck are volunteers. A few years ago a petition was circulated throughout the north end of the ward asking that a life-saving station be established at Windsor Park, but nothing came of It. STREET RY. CO. ON THE GRILL.

Mr. Knapp In addressing the board said among other things: "Now Is the vital time to test the question of who is to run Gary, the street car company or city. "The operation of the street cars Is not so vital a question now as it wfll be latter when the city becomes dependant upon the company. "The franchise is a liberal one and the company ought to be made to live up to It. The board's hands are tied

The amount that has been spent on the construction does not amount to much, and I don't believe that the comany is In a pcsltion to complete the work. "The board should bar in mind that the forfeiture of the bond put up by the company does not necessarily mean the forfeiture of the franchise. The company has enough leeway and this delay was not necessary. Of course. If it Is seen that the company is acting in good faith their franchise time ought to be extended. But their plea that they jlost va'uable time in waiting for the decision on the referendum matter does not hold good as they sought an appeal. Furthermore they sent out the statement broad cast that the litigation did not affect the building in the roads." In a resolution passed by the board the promoters of the road are called to arpear before the board on April 3rd, to answer why the company has not completed that part of its. railroad on Broadway, north of One Hundred nnd Eighty-Fifth street, within the time specified by the, franchise granted July 6 1906. The resolution is ostensibly for the purpose of questioning the company's right to ask for an extension of the franchise limit but it is expected that at this time the rail question will be taken up. k." samuelson; hegewisch ' old man, is dfad. Afflicted With Ilenrt Disease, lie Falls and Drags Himself Into Barn. Henry Samuelson, 70 years old, living near One Hundred and Forty-first street and Ontario avenue, was found dead yesterday morning. The remains were discovered In a barn belonging to Lars Swason at 13322 Ontario avenue, eight blocks south of the Samuelson home. At the inquest held yesterday morning it was found that Samuelson died of heart disease. He leaves a wife and family. Samuelson was known to be afflicted with heart disease, and he had himself predicted many times that he would be found dead some morning. Last Monday night he left his home for a little walk, but was evidently overtaken, by j his old enemy, heart trouble. Being almost helpless he dragged himself to the nearest place of Shelter that he could find, which happened to be the barn. Yesterday morning Samuelson went to the barn to do the chores and found the old man lying there. The police were notified and the remains taken to Korthaus' morgue, where an inquest was held yesterday. Interment will take place today. WHITING COURT SEVERE ON DRUNKEN WIFE-BEATER.
