It is said that the Hammond business men who took up the matter of building a modern hotel in this city have concluded that he man from Attica, Mr' Thompson, will have to put a little

more than $5,000 into the enterprise before they, would build a hotel for him. They are of the opinion, however, that a man can be found who is not only aa, expehienced hotel man, but who. will be willing to invest a good sized amount of money in the enterprise. The project is not given up by any means, and it Is expected that there will be- developments later on. One of the sites that was suggested for the new hotel was the -north corner of Hohman street and Muenich court. The property is owned J. J. Ruft and Ben Hayes, and neither of them would consider a proposition to build a hotel on the property. Mr. Ruff wanted to use his lot for a hardware store, and Mr. Hayes did not care to put uj the money for a hotel in view of the fact that he is desirous of retiring from business.

Kolinoskl admitted taking the blanket, but said in court this morning that he intended to keep it only for an hour. He refused to plead guilty.

barn to take the blanket.

Kolinoski is 28 years old and is mar

reports current about the house, and It Is not believed that they will surrender their Independent convictions to vote for it. even though the president considers it one of the most Important features of his legislative program. -WHAT WOULD HAPPEN f If Crumpacker and Barnard vote against ship subsidy, will they forfeit their standing at the White House? That is one of the many interacting questions raised by the present patronage disturbance. (Crumpacker and Barnard are not insurgents in the accepted sense of that term.
