Prlngle We believe the situation warrants buying September wheat on a scale up or down, accepting profits as they may show. Bache The public seems inclined to await developments politically and otherwise before taking any interest in the market.. The progress of the growing crop is also studied with deep concern . for upon the successful har vest depends the return of prosperity We believe the best course Is to buy stocks on all declines. Ware & Leland "We doubt if further advances can be sustained and would favor sales of wheat on all bulges. White Buy July wheat every time we have such a break as yesterday. Barrell Still think wheat strong on Its commercial position and advise buy. on the dips. Joseph Buy Acp on all slight recessions. Hold Brt. Buy. Southern Pa cine. Financial Bureau. Boar talk con tinues on Steel which is evidently sup ported by the shortage. Reports favor buying Smelter on reactions with a lit tie stock said to be offering above 76 now. St. Paul i3 sold by professionals when strong with stop order protection Good buying is taking place in Atchison and St. Poul during heaviness, we favor buying Southern Pacific.

WONDERFUL SEWER

RUSH 111 Engineering Feat That Has Never Been Equalled in Any Indiana City. GREEN a SON EXPLAIN SEWER Over a Million Gallons of Water Are Primped Through It Sceptic Tank System. In the matter of civil improvements in Gary, but few of them equal in magnitude the marvelous sewer now under construction, known as district sewer No. 1, and located five and a half blocks east of Broadway. The construction of the sevjer is not only an engineering feat, that ' is remarkable in itself, but also for what it will accomplish. The Idea is the product of pareful study and weeks of investigation on the part of the board of trustees, and its construction the result of rare mechanical ability on the part of Green & Sons, the big contractors who have charge of the building of the sewer. Looking to The Future. In Gary, all municipal improvements are done with an eye to the future, and this fact is especially characteristic In the construction of the big sewer, The manner of handling the difficulties encountered was carefully explained this afternoon by Mr. Green and Mayor Thomas E. Knotts to the rep resentatlves of the various newspa pers In the city. Nowhere in the state with the ex ception, possibly, of Indianapolis, has sewer been laid of the magnitude and character of the one in Gary. Twenty-seven feet below the surface of the alley it is laid, with a diameter of eight feet, and three complete rings or layers of. brick. Every foot that Is constructed means an expenditure of $25 and when the entire system is complete, the city will have become indebted to Green & Son the sum of 230,000 for the 9,200 feet to be con structed on this branch. Three Thousand Feet la Completed There has now been completed 3,000 feet, and the work is progressing at the average rate of seventy-five feet per day. This means the laying of 50,000 brick in a single day, the con sumption of 125 barrels of cement, and the employment of a small army of workmen, numbering 300 or more Other astonishing figures could be given to give a conception of the work being done. The appearance of the scene of opera tions resembles In a degree pictures of the digging of the Panama canal. On the huge banks of sand lining the ex cavatlons, are arranged nine tiers o workmen, working like a mass of bees, shoveling the dirt up and out of the mammoth ditch. Along one side tram ways have been laid upon which car loads of brick are brought and many hands relay the brick down to the ex perienced masons below. A few hun dred feet In front of them the great steam shovel Is in operation digging to a depth of fifteen feet. This great machine was especially constructed for this purpose by Green & Sons who have their own design of shovel and engine Following up the work in the rear is another steam shovel which easllv throws back the dirt with Its clamshell scoop. Explanation of Feat. The great engineering feat in the construction of the sewer consists in the disposal of the water at the depth at which they are digging. Near the Wabash tracks where they are now working, there is a slough in which there continually stands two feet o water. If there were no pumps used therefore it would mean that there would be about twenty feet of wate to contend with. With ordinary pumps it would be an impossibility to suck the water up from the bottom of the ex cavation, but this .difficulty is disposed of by the use of what is known as the Emerson pump, which has never be fore been adapted to sewer construe tlon. This pump lifts the water up to a certain height and then pushes it out, first by means of a vacum and then by the condensing of the steam forced into the cylinders of the pump. There are four of these pumps In operation each with a capacity of 350 gallons per minute and running continually ai uau ineir capacity, xnis means that 1,008,000 gallons of water I pumped from the sewer every twenty four hours. This keeps the bottom o the ditch as dry as the surface for all practical purposes. If the pumps were to stop for ten minutes the wate would rise at least two feet. The ne gines that supply the steam for th pumps cansume seventy-nve tons o coal per week. Will Take all Swamps Out. It is expected that the great sewer will be completed, so that by September 1, there will not be a swamp or marsh in the city. This will mean the avoiding ot a possible spread of contagion that has been feared should the stagnant water be allowed to remain in the city many months longer. Not only will the surface water be disposed of, but prospective builders need have no fear of water in their cellars should they see fit to construct a building with two stories below the surface of the earth. For the present district sewer will be extended only to Fifteenth street street, and the remainder if the city will be drained by smaller extensions leading to the big sewer. In the course of twelve of fifteen months Gary will have established their sceptic tank system oy wnica an or tne sewage will be purified and turned back into the river as pure and clean as when it fell from the skies. For the time being, however, the sewage will be turned directly into the Calumet river. After the inspection of the sewer took place, Mr. Green took the party to the Gary hotel where they dined. Those present were: Mayor Knotts, City Engineef A. P. Melton, R. Sheflow, the city inspector, Carl J. Cooper, Carl Denowltz and C. R. Woods.

GARY

FIRST ANNUAL H. S.

EXHIBITION PLEASES (Continued from page one.) herself the admiration of the audience for her quaint reading of Longfellow's , The Bell of Atri," nota word of what he had to say escaped her audience ; and many wondered how much - little girl could retain as big a piece of poetry in her memory as she did Miss Mildred Collins, whose silvery soprano could be heard and easily distingulshed in the chorus, was roundly pplauded when she stepped to the center of the stage to shig a solo selection Her selection was perfectly rendered and enhanced by her dash and vlvaciousness and graceful bearing. She responded to the applause follow ing her song with an encore '"Lovely June" by the high school chorus was probably the best rendered selection by the chorus. It followed the solo by Miss Collins. Debate Is Opened. With the exception of one more num ber by the high school chorus the above numbers completed the singing program, and the audience prepared for the debate between the two literary societies of the high school the Round Table Debating society and the Athenian society. The question for debate wasi "Re solved, that a constitutional amendment should be secured by which senators shall be elected by direct vote of the people." The Round Tables were represented by William Evers, Edwin Friedrich and Elston Elliott. They took up the affirmation of the resolution. The Athenians on the negative were represented by Mamie Burnham, Maude Foley and Hazel LaRue. Enter Into Spirit. Both sides entered into the discussion r with seriousness and discussed the question in a way that would have been credit to riper judgment. The de-. baters wedged in quite a number of extemporaneous remarks that enlivened the debate. The boys were rather too eager to present their side which made them make haste slowly. The girls were more deliberate in their statements. Edwin Friedrich, son of Charles Friedrich was easily the best debator of the two societies. He was especially good in the three minutes of rebuttal allowed, but credit must also be given the other two of the round table who. In a discussion beforehand prompted some of Frledrlch's best points. It waa evident, however, that the young mail takes very much after his father and the parent had also prompted some of bis best thoughts. Athenians Win. During the time that the Judges reached their decision on the high school chorus save their closing number after which Professor W. A. Hill announced that the verdict had been awarded to the Athenians, the girls. The whole was a big success from an entertaining and educational standpoint and will undoubted be a leading feature next year. $100 Reward, $100.
