AGENT NOW BE

Judgre A. C. Huber. Judge P. L. Fitzgerald and others who have been ambitious to become the first etty judge of Gary are now satisfied in their own opinion that Gary will have no city judge, as it will become a city of the fifth class. This was determined in an opinion written by John H. Gfllett of Hammond, formerly . Judge of the state supremo court. Coincident with the opinion received from Judge Gillett, Judge Huber announced yesterday that from this time forward he was ready to cast aside all of his own political aspirations and work from start to finish for the local republican candidate for mayor, whover ttiey may select as candidate. The summary of the opinion which satisfies the former office seekers that there will be no city judge when Gary is made a city, in part is as follows: ("Upon the above consideration it is my opinion that Gary will become a city of the fifth class. I may say. however, in closing that it is welt settled that the words, 'according to the last preceding United States census,' do not tie the classification down to the census preceding the enactment of the statute, but with the growth of cities they may. under such a statute, pass from one class into a higher class (City of Indianapolis vs. Xavin). and therefore, upon the taking of the census of 1910. Gary's proper place in the classification of the cities of the state will I attained, not In an unauthoritative way, but as the statute provides, "according to the last preceding United States census.' "

ARRESTED

JUDGE GARY DINED JJHEFFIELD

' Sheffield, '.England. Aug. 27. The Chamber of Commerce gave a dinner In honor; of Judge .Elbert II. Gary, chairman of the board of directors of the United S.ates Steel corporation. Replying; to' a toast; to his health. Judge Gary spoke on the interdependence of trade conditions in England and the United States. He said that recent months had shown a decided advance in trade in the United States, especially in iron and steel, and so he thinks England has good reason to be hopeful. He has no objection to free trade, he declared, if all countries adot it, but it Is not fair that industry should be protected In one country and not In another. He believes in reciprocal relations between all the countries of the worUJ.

A warrant will be sworn out today, according to Judge Fitzgerald, for the arrest of Peter Meketinski on the charge of selling beer without a license. There is evidence beyond the question of a doubt that this man has been repeatedly disposing of the beer to saloon keepers about the city and no attempt has ever been-made to have him arrested. Judge Fitzgerald said yesterday, however, that this man is as guilty as any of the saloon keepers and informed Meketinski that he would be arrested. For some reason or other, although many of the blind tiger proprietors .have gotten their beer from this source, Meketinski. who is a local brewery agent, has never been arrested. He seems to be. bathed in immunity, although he is one of the worst

offenders of the liquor laws in the city. In connection with the case of Meketinski, it might be said that he was the man who sold Joha Bennett the

fifteen cases of beer and then called up

Carl Sohichtner, one of the wellknown characters about Gary and who was run down by an automobile in Milwaukee, has escaped from the poor farm at that place where he was committed after the accident. Schichtner was not only well-known about Gary, but spent some time at the Iake County Foor Farm at Crown Point. After his escape from the poor farm Schichtner wandered about the west side of Milwaukee, evidently somewhat effected mentally, until he was picked up by Patrolman Hurmelster of that city and taken back to the poor farm. Upon his request the authorities later sent him back to Gary. After leaving the Lake county institution in June he went to Milwaukee where he first gained prominence in the Cream City by being run over by an

automobile. Being in destitute circum

Mayor Knotts and informed him of the J stances he was taken to the poor farm

matter. Knotts said: "Give him the beer; we'll get him later." Gary people would like to see him get the limit of the law.

BLAZE LOOKS ODD TO THE POLICE

A fire which called out the Gary department at 1 o'clock this morning, and from the evidence secured looks like a clear case of arson, may lead to the arrest of the owners of the building today. . The building is owned by Mike Pctrovich and is situated on Washington street, near Twenty-fourth avenue. The alarm was sent In to the fire department about 1 o'clock and upon arriving Chief Feeley and his men found the rear end of the building near the roof to be in flames. The blaze was soon extinguished, after which Chief Feley made an investigation to find out the cause of the fire. In the second story toward the rear

ot the building the chief discovered a

niE jug of kerosene, and from the fumes there is no doubt that a quantity of it was poured on the floor and

a torch applied. Petrovich keeps a

number of boarders, but the room in which the fire started was unoccupied.

The kerosene jug was nearly empty

when found. It was brought to the police station and may be used as evidence if arrests follow.

for treatment. It was after he had almost recovered that he made his escape. It is not known whether or not the man has any relatives in this city.
