Kozemer Breske anil Walter Moran, the two hCicago young men who were arrested in Hammond after they had broken into a car at Crown Point and had taken a watch and some money, were both tried in the Hammond city court this morning on the charge of housebreaking and were found guilty. They were fined $15 each and were eentenced to the county jail for thirty days. While they might easily have been given a heavier fine, It is believed that the fine and sentence that was imposed by Judge McMahon will have the effect of ending their criminal career. Extortion Cases Continued. The cases of extortion, in which Martin Reeves of Indiana Harbor and Charles Muller -of Whiting are implicated, came up In the Hammond city court this morning and a continuance was taken until next Tuesday. Muller is also charged with assault and battery. Mrs. Katie Smith is the complaining witness, and thinks that $3 is an extortionate amount for mileage from Gary to Indiana Harbor.

Zimmermanof Miller, who were arrested on the charge of keeping slot machines In their places of business, were called to ti'.al in Judge Frank Prest's court this morning.

The case of Jarnecke vs. Muri, in which Jarnecke seeks to reagin possession of his property next to the Eder building on Hohman street, was continued until Sept. 6, pending a settlement of the difficulty. Why They Fell for Him. J. A. Willis, the alleged king of the tramps, "put one over" on a crowd of business and professional men who gathered around the Majestic hotel ths other evening. He is said to be a railroad man, but he had every characteristic of the hobo. He was so dirty his presence was offensive to the least sensitive of nostrils. His clothes were torn and smeared with grease. His manner was such as might be expected from a man without a mentionable ancestry or a hope of posterity. As far as education goes, it might have been picked out of the greasy scrap of a newspaper. If J. A. Willis is not the king of tramps he ought to be, for he can play the role with less of a makeup and the least affectation of manner than any man on earth. His red nose and face is an evidence of dissiptation on bad whisky, and as far as ability is concerned. AVillis knew his limitations and played his highest role. That's why some six or eight business and professional men fell for him. SOCIAL NEWS CONTINUED FROM PAGE TWO. ins. VAEGKR KNTERTAINS. Tht ladies of Sewing Circle, No. 2, of St. Margaret's hospital upent a very pleasant afternoon yesterday as the guests of Mrs. Joseph Tapger at her home in State Line street.

Frank Richardson, an 18 year old boy, met his death last night about 8 o'clock east of Gibson, when he attempted to board a freight train which was to take him to Vetrolt. his former home. The mangled remains vM-evbrought to Hammond in Stewart's ambulance, and unless the boy's friends or relatives can be reachedin Detroit, the body will be buried in the Potter's field. No one seems to know where Richardson came from, but he was known to the local police and they advised him to get out of Hammond, after he had been here doing nothing for about six weeks. Richardson is remembered by Harry Jarchow. 403 Cedar street, who gave him something to eat. Outside of that nothing or little Is known about the young man. Si IG III LAPORTE Sister-in-Law, Attorney W. J. McAleer's filly, who won three straight heats at Laporte last Tuesday in the 2:35 event, was not entered by her owner today as he had at first intended to. because the track was too muddy. Mr. MacAleer wants to save her in order to start her at the Crown Point track next Thursday. At Crown Point she will be entered either in the 2:22 or 2:2S event. Sister-in-Law has also been entered in the Springfield stake event, with a purse of $1,000. This race will be held Oct. 2fi. and will be the biggest event at the Illinois state capital events. Next Thursday will be the big day at the Lake county fair, and the appearance of Sister-in-Law will undoubtedly be an attraction for the Hammond visitors. "PHEW THE FISH" SAIDJHE POLICE Paul Damme, located at Camp Cuneo, on the lake front, sold Chief of Police Peter Austgen and Bailiff James Trost a mess of fish that were far from being fresh. Today a fine of $10 and costs, amounting to $20, was taxed up against him, and he is probably beginning to appreciate the fact that he tried the fish on the wrong persons. Damme came into the police station and said that he had some good fish to sell. The chief and the bailiff both sent an order home. When the fish arrived the officers both heard from their wives in no uncertain manner. The report was to the effect that the fish were putrid. Chief of Police Austgen promptly ordered Damme's arrest, and in the Hammond city court this morning he was fined $10 and costs.
