REGOUHT GHHGES i RESULTS

The offlcia.1 recount of the spoiled ballots by the election commissioners in Gary yesterday, failed to change the complexion of the returns, and the two parties retain their pluralities as before. In the case of City Clerk-elect Harry Moose his frail majority of one vote was raised to three, and it Is still possible that steps will be taken to contest his election. In the fourth ward where Policeman Pete Jnrlc was defeated by ten votes by John Siemaisko. it was feared that the recount of the spoiled ballots would place the former In office, but he was unable to overcome the lead of tenf The final count gave Slemlasko a plurality of five. The close vote in which Cattleman defeated William .Wolf, by four votes remained unchanged. FIGHT OVER PAIR HAS BEGU The fight over the spoils of office .ias already started among the Gary democrats, the first trouble engendered being that of the democratic physicians over the office of health commissioner. A meeting was called yesterday afternoon by Dr. Packard, to be held in th office of Dr. E. E. Evans for the purpose of deciding upon who would be the most capable mand and entitled to the plum. Dr. Evans said this morning that he knew but little of what took place at the meeting, as his office was merely used by them because It was larger and centrally located. The result of the meeting was that it broko up in a dispute as to who was entitled to the appointment, who had done the most work for Tom and finally who called this meeting anyway, and just before they went home, what right did that person, whoever it was, have to call the meeting. It was finally agreed that this issue would not stand a very good chance to be decided among the democratic physicians, so that they agreed to extend their influence individually toward securing the appointment and make the race a free-for-all for all of them. It has been generally noised about the city today that Tom will appoint whomever he sees fit regardless of how certain doctors have diagnosed the case. Gream

CARTED 0 IIRD Democratic Candidate for Mayor Is ShamefullyTreated Arrested on Old Warrant Police Claim it Is all a Mistake. W. C. Crolius, a citizen of Gary, and formerly a candidate for the mayoralty in this city, was subjected to shameful treatment last night by being bundled into a clanging patrol wagon while standing on Broadway and taken to the police station on a warrant which had been previously nolle prossed by the court. The automobile patrol wagon rushed out of the station yesterday and down to the residence of Crolius as If there had been a murder committed In the home of the latter or a serious crime which needed the immediate attention of the police, had been perpetrated. Mrs. Crolius and the family were half frantic as burly Titus shook the door and demanded to know whether Crolius was at home or not. Upon the discovery that he was not there they went back to Broadway, and finding him standing on the street talking to large group of friends, they read the warrant to him and then put him in the wagon. He was carried unceremoniously to the station. Upon arriving at the station Mr. Crolius discovered that the warrant which had been read to him had previously been nolle prossed. The warrant charged Mm with assault and battery on election day and had been sworn out by Jake Labovich during the heat of the election. The police claim that the whole matter was a mistake, that they did not know that the warrant had been quashed, but even then they have not explained why it was necessary to make such a great commotion over the serving of a war rant for assault and battery on a well known oitiaen. Most people who saw the Incident were disgusted with the affair, and even Knotts supporters have lodged a complaint with the mayor. BODY BROUGHT HOME. (Special to The Times.) "Whiting, Ind.', Nov. .
