COHTRAGTORSAYSDR. ElfAHS' TALK IS"SiLLY" Builder of Big Gary Sewer Takes Issue With the Health Officer.

POINTS TO THE SEPTIC TUiK Mr. Green Says New City Will Pour Less Sewage in lake When Population Increases. In commenting: on the of Dr. W. A. Evans, health commissioner of Chicago, who said that the new sewer system of Gary was bad. Contractor James Green of Green & Sons, who Is one of the biggest sewer builders In the country, said yesterday that the talk of Dr. Etfans was "silly." "In the first place," said Mr. Green, "when Gary gets to be a city of sufficient size so that her sewerage will be great then the city has provided for a great septic tank system which will make the water as pure as It possibly can be made before It Is turned back Into the Calumet river. "The establishment of this septic tank system is the only feasible plan for the solution of the sewerage question, which, however, considering the present elze of Gary is really not a factor. When Gary gets to be a city of 60,000 and these tanks are Installed her part in the pollution of the waters of Lake Michigan will not only be smaller than It Is at the present time, but It will be eliminated. "As far as the sewerage drained into the Calumet river at the present time is concerned I think that by the time the water reaches Lake Michigan It has been purified to such an extent that It contains but little poisonous matter. This will be accomplished not only by its dillution in the great body of water, but by the chemical action of vegetation In the river."

WHITING CITIZENS' FIND SENSATION (Continued from Page One.)

the, solution of this mystery will clear up the whole series of robberies in Whiting and that the offender, whoever he Is, can be brought to Justice. Officer Pinkerton of Whiting was traveling his beat as usual this morning at 3 o'clock when he heard the crash of breaking glass. He drew his revolver and quickly ran in the direction of the sound. He had Just time enough to see the shadowy form of a man disappear in the darkness in the direction of Davidson's addition. He immediately fired at him and eight shots were discharged from the - revolver before the man finally dropped the suits, hats and overcoats he had stolen out of the show window and made his escape. An inventory of the loss revealed the fact that two suits of clothes, two overcoats and three nats had been stolen. Bloodhounds Secured. Arrangements were made at once to secure the services of Stmmpher and Cummlngs and their bloodhounds. At 4 o'clock the dogs were put on the trail and the fact that the ground was frosty and the trail had not been defiled made the work of the dogs easy. The hounds were started in the direction which the man had taken. It lead to the house in Davidson's sub division. It was thought that the dogs must surely have made a mistake and so they were taken back and put on the trail again. Again they led the officers to the same house and the operation was repeated for the third time with the same result Among those who engaged in the search were Detectives Strumpher and Cummlngs, Chief of Police Lawler, Sergeant Collins, Officer Mullaney, Pinkerton, Zacha and Emmel. Pretty Superstition. Among the superstitions of the Seneca Indians is, or was, a beautiful one connected with the death of a maiden. When this occurred, they imprisoned a young bird, and kept it so until it began to try its powers of song; and then, loading it with caresses and messages, they set it free oyer her grave, in the belief that it would not fold its wing or close its eye until it has flown to the spirit-land and delivered its burden of affection to the loved one. cloll-vor the water to be pure. .......

Thla amount, added to the net earnings re ported for the three preeeedlng; quar ters, Rives a total of $01,820,520 for the year 1008. The earnings for the December quarter compare with $32,553,995 in the corresponding quarter of 1907, w.hlch waa the smallest quarter in that year, owingto the panic, which began in Oc tober. The earnings in the December quarter fell about $900,000 below those of the September quarter in 1908, but were considerably larger than those of either of the two preceding quarters. The net earnings for the full year 1908 were about $69,000,000 below the record figures of '1907 and about $64 000,0000 less than those of 1906. Suplua Shows Decrease. After the payment of all charges and the preferred and common stock divl dends in the December quarter there was left a surplus of $5,142,451, which, with the surplus of the preceding quar ters, makes a total surplus of $10,497, 934 for the year. This amount is about $5,000,000 less than the final surplus for 1907, even after the deduction of $6,500,000 for special appropriations during that year. The amount of unfilled orders on the steel corporation's book at the end of last year was slightly higher than at the end of the September quarter. The amount of orders Dec. 31 called for 3,603,527 tons of material, as, compared with 3,421,977 tons Sept. 30, 3,313,878 tons June 30, 3,765,343 tons March 31 find 4,624,533 tons at the end of 1907. The directors declared the regular quarterly dividends on the common and preferred stocks, payable on the usual dates. DARING GM HOLDUP Two Men Are Relieved of Watches and Money by Negroes. Another daring hold-up took place in Gary last night on South' Broadway about" 8 o'clock when Gustav Hentz, 728 Delaware street, and Phelix Eichler, Seventeenth avenue and Delaware street, were relieved of $4 in silver and a gold watch by two negroes. Hentz and Eichler were returning from work and, when opposite Sixteenth street and Broadway, two men wearing handkerchiefs over their eyes, stepped from behind some brush and thrusting revolvers in their faces told them to throw up their hands. Hentz and Eichler were so frightened at the time that they made no attempt to defend themselves. While one of the negroes covered the two men with a revolver, the other went through their clothes. After finding the watch and money they told Eichler and Hentz to beat their tracks.. The hold-up was reported to the police and Chief Martin dispatched several of his officers to the scene of the hold-up, but they were unable to find any clew. , Several suspects were brought to the station during the night, but after investigating were released. "DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LOADED' ' Boy Accidentally Shoots His Sister. Laporte, Ind., Jan. 26. Henry Murdock, IS years old, was toying with a shotgun today when it was discharged an dthirty-flve shot entered the body of his sister, Mrs. Albert Decker. The boy became hysterical and cried that he "didn't know it was loaded." That Mrs. Decker was not instantly killed is said to by physicians to be due" to her condition of impending motherhood, which was to have ende dtomorrow on which prevented internal hemorrhages. RUNAWAY HORSE Whiting Boy at Gary Comes to Grief. A runaway which threatened for a time to be serious, aroused th iroit ment of pedestrians on Broadway about noon yesterday when the light buggy owned by Morris Reiner and driven by Junior Swartz was pulled down the street at a terrific pace by the frightened horse. About the time that the r reached the postoffice it was hard to ten which was the most frightened, the horse or the driven, when suddenly the latter was seen to shoot up into the air and land on the concrete nnv..-. - C ment. People ran to the assistance of Swartz, but it was found that he was not seriously Injured. The horse was frightened by the breaking of one of the shafts of the buggy. THE!

bill is mmm Democrats Force Their Hand in Alien Bill at Capital.

TIMES' BUREAU AT THE STATE CAPITAL (Special to The Times.) Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 27. The democrats kept the republicans from amending a bill to require foreign born men to answer a long string of questions before they are allowed to vote. The bill was advanced and ready for passage. The republicans charge an attempt to disfranchise old soldiers at the Marion Soldiers' Home because the bill provides when any voter challenged must be sworn in by freeholder or householder, and some of the soldiers home's precincts have neither. The house passed a bill to appoint special counsel to the governor by a vote of 73 to 75. Also passed a bill to recharter Hanover college. Clore introduced a bill to allow railroads and interurbans to charge only half fare when a passenger gets no seat. Other bills Introduced in the house were byGiftord $325,000 to build a -state state library and museum; Faulkner, $65,000 to build a hospital for the criminal insane; Furnas, $160,000 to build a machinery hall on the state fair grounds; Strick land, appoint a commission to inves tigate abolishing poor farms and creating a state institution. In the senate Fleming, to compel all factories and shops to be kept sanitary; Royse to enable St. Mary's of the Woods to re-charter. The senate committee on cities and towns made a diided report on the uniform bookkeeping bill. Later Senator Ranke withdrew the minority report, and the majority report favoring the passage was adopted. DEMANDS JB OR LIFE Contractor Approached by Man Who Is Crazy for Work. (Special to The Times.) Whiting, Ind., Jan. 27. Contractor Nooney, who is at work on the new lake front pary, met with an experience on Monday afternoon which he will not soon forget. While in the pursuit of his duties the contractor was approached by a foreigner who asked him for a Job. HeJ was tola mat at present there was no opening. The foreigner did not take "no" for an answer, but after hanging around for some time he again approached Nooney, this time having a large club in his hand. He made a straight aim at his head with the weapon. Nooney grabbed the club and threw his opponent to the ground. He Jumped up pretty lively and set up an awful howl for the club, but when Nooney declined to return it he had the pleasure of having a knife pulled on him. After this act of desperation he made a hurried escape. Nooney took the matter as a huge Joke, thinking that the man had ought to soon secure employment, if being persistent counted for anything. By yesterday morning the matter was almost forgotten, when Mr. Man appeared on the scene, and approaching Nooney again pulled the knife on him. This time the matter was taken as no Joke and one, of the men working at the park was sent to the nearest telephone to call the police, but by the time they reached the place the foreignr had escaped. Having a good description of him they think they may locate him today, but it is a certainty that if he ever asks Nooney for a Job again he won't get away as easy as he did on these two occasions. MILL SUPT. VISITS GARY T. M. Girdler, superintendent of the Atlanta Steel company of Atlanta, Ga., was in Gary yesterday, together with Walter A. McAfee, a prominent citizen of that city, for the purpose of visiting the Gary steel mills and getting a line on the progress of the construction work. The two men while in the city were the guests of Charles P. Kimmel, the superintendent of the rolls in the rail mill of the Indiana Steel company. Mr. Girdler marveled at the local mills, saying that they were the greatest he had ever seen. He spent the entire day looking through the plant, and at noon took dinner at the Gary hotel with a party of friends. His plant at Georgia is one of the largest in the south and the superintendent says that they have been running without a single stop through the entire year. CALUMET RIVER MENACE TO WATER (Continued from Page One.) be completed until April, enough already is known to show that the water supply is being contaminated to a dangerous extent. Sewage a Constant Menace. A stream of sewage from the mouth of the Calumet was followed for seven miles by Chemist Barnard. Its direction changed with the direction of the wind, but it was found that it extended northeasterly beyond the Sixtyeighth street crib. The commission has confirmed the finding of the United States engineering corps that there are no currents in Lake Michigan and that the sewage is driven by changing winds. Dr Ev ans is of the opinion that heroic meas ures will be necessary In the near future to guard the public health in Che southern part of the city, and that it finally may be found necessary to adopt a system of sewage reduction, as has been done in come other cities.
