MARSHALL SUPPORT

DOUBTFUL

Indiana Politicians Wonder at Snubs That Are Being - Handed Out by Tenth District Democratic Mayors to Governor.

Lafayette, Ind.. Jan. 10. Will the democrats of this part of the state indorse, by resolution or word of mouth. Governor Marshall as a candidate for president? There are a good many politicians who are speculating over tins, and the f.ourteenth annual banquet of the Jackson club of Lafayette, to be held in this city tonight, will be watched with Interest. There is an undercurrent of opposition to the governor In the Tenth congressional district, all because the governor has seen fit not to listen to the dictates of the bosses and Is making appointments and running the governor's office just about as his own Judgment tells him. It Is openly declared that Governor Marshall, should he be a candidate for president, would have opposition in this part of this, his own, state. . Opposing tha Governor. Mayor Thomas Knotts of Gary, Mayor Lawrence Becker of Hammond and Mayor Lemuel Darrow of LaPorte, each

a politician riant in his nvn i-,,..nt

- - vvntitj', are opponents of the governor. Each is still chafing because of the governor's veto of bills which they championed In the legislature. Mayor Kpotts is particularly wroth over the governor's interference in the Gary election in November, and Mayors Becker and Darrow are angry because the governor saw fit to disregard recommendations made for appointments. -Mayor George R. Durgan of' Lafayette, too, is none too enthusiastic for Governor Marshall because the governor has declined to do as he requested in some things. J. Kirby Risk, former district chairman! championed the cause of James Cullen as a candidate for a place on the state railroad commission. In fact. Risk thought he had landed Cullen, and he so announced the appointment of Frank Payne of Jeffersonville, and the change of front has not only been displeasing to Risk, but even more so to Cullen, who is strong with organl-' zed labor. "' j Some of the governor's friends here believe that the Jackson club should come to the front for Governor Marshall as a candidate for the democratic presidential nomination. Others are inclined to let things pass without any

Substantially as reported in The Times last Friday, the report of Burt

New, the legal secretary to Governor

Marshall, has been handed in. The investigation is a detailed one, covering the affairs of the Calumet Commission Co., which attempted to open the Dearborn Park poolroom. There is nothing In the report sent broadcast that the ' promoters of this enterprise will attempt to install a wireless telegraph system for receiving race reports at the room. "There was nothing to indicate," said New, "that any such plan Is In contemplation by 'the promoters. I could find nothing to show that any such move ever had been serfo-usly considered. "I found that the original plans of the gamblers had included a race track near the poolroom site, had their scheme for operating the place been permitted to go through. They were prepared to spend several hundred thousand dollars on the projept had the Indiana authorities taken kindly to their scheme." New was able to report to the governor the names of the financial, backers of the scheme, the names of the active managers and promoters, and a long list of names of persons who went to the poolroom on the aay the attempt to open was made. These names, which the governor declined to make public, have ben placed on file for use

in the event any action at law is taken against the gamblers. New further reported that the plan to establish a telegraph station at Lansing, near the state line m Illinois, and to supply information to the poolroom manager by automobile has virtually been abandoned after the promoters found that it would be a comparatively simple matter for the Indiana authorities to stop the delivery of messages. According to the report filed with the governor. Sheriff Grant of Lake county has the situation well in hand, and under ordinary conditions will be able to thwart any further atempts to operate the poolroom. Both the governor and New said that they had faith in the sheriff's ability to cope with the situation. : Orders will be issued to the sheriff to strip the poolroom of all blackboards, tables, instruments, etc., if a further attempt is made to sell pools In the place. If such attempt Is made, New reported, it will be with full knowledge on the part of the poolroom promoters that they will have to face a flgrht in the court, all belief that the state authorities are inclined to look with leniency on the attempted invasion having been dispelled. New found no indications that any Indiana money had been used in fitting up the poolroom, all having. been supplied by the Chicago men back of the promoters.

MAYOR

TRIES HIS FIRST CASE

(Special to The Timbs.) East Chicago, Ind., Jan. 10. Mayor A. G. Schlieker tried his first police court case this morning, when Rudolph Komisha was brought before him for abusing a horse and also for being drunk. He was fined for both, amounting to $26. In trying the case the new mayor said that drunkenness was !5ad enough, but the abusing of dumb animals would not be permitted. Komisha had rented the horse and sleigh from Lewis & Smith, liverymen, and was arrested by Officer Gennesowski, on Mellville avenue, Oklahoma. Both the sleigh and horse were more or less damaged in the wild jide. It was later discovered that the man was also drunK. Komisha pleaded g-uiltjp to the charges and was fined for both offenses, the

riargest fine ever being imposed for

abusing dumb animals, which amounted to $5 and costs and $1 and costs for drunkenness.

The night of Jan. 24 will be a big one in Gary, the St. Andrews' society having received word from Governor Marshall that he' would accept an Invitation for the banquet on that night. In order to secure the presence of

Governor Marshall for the occasion it was necessary to switch the banquet date from the 25th to the 24th. Governor Marshall sent a telegram Gary ""SErAhdrewir " Society; ""last tsa,tur-1 day, stating that it would be impossible for him to be in Gary on the 25th owing! to a previous engagement. He explained, however, that he would be glad to be present on the night of the 24th, if arrangements could be made accordingly. . Governor Marshall is expected to' arrive in the city early in the day and this will be his first real visit to the city) He will be the city's guest, although the banquet is given under the auspices of the Scotch society.

BUYS OUT CAFE

East Chicago Man Now a Boniface.

Indiana Harbor, Ind., Jan. 10. E. W. Foster of East Chicago has bought out the Metrfopole cafe, which for the past six months or so has been a feature of the Metropole buffet, Michigan avenue. The cafe has ben owned" and conducted by Ben Barker, who Is leaving for California to take a position with his brother as chef of a' hotel in California. Running a cafe is a departure with Mr. Foster, who for the past several years has been employed in the Republic steel mill, East Chicago. The.; new proprietor Intends to conduct the establishment for high class trade and proposes to furnish everything of the best. There will be a regular luncheon served at noon in addition to the short

order service which will be available to patrons all day, and a first-class chef, W. E. Sanders, is installed. Mr. Sanders brings with him thirteen years experience at his calling. He comes from the Windsor-Clifton, Chicago. The cafe has been popular since it was opened last summer and it is the rvew proprietor's indention to 'conduct i' in such a manner as will tend to increase that popularity which it now enjoys.

The Rivals. A Long-Felt Want and a Public Demand were conversing together. "I have a large circle of acquaintances," observed the Public Demand. "I am always being met" The Long-Felt Want laughed heartily, "I have the best of it, old chap," he remarked, genially, "I am always being filled."

(Special to Thh Tinas.) East Chicago, Jan. 10. In the joke column on the editorial, page of yesterday's Tribune appeared a i little squib. In which one suburbanite was supposed to have spent two hours attempting to thraw out his water' pipes, and finally, is supposed to have met with complete success, the water flowing freely. He got on a car to go to his business and meeting a neighbor was Informed that the water had been turned off for two hours that morning. Something of the kind might have happened to almost any subscriber of the water company during the recent cold snap without any very long stretch of the imagination. But while the householder Is kicking what do you. think the water company is doing? Superintendent C. U Kirk of the water company has put in a good part of the holiday season floating around the crib- and kicking the ice away from the intake so that his patrons might have a little something to take as a chaser besides ginger ale or a snit of beer. That the water Is doing everything in their power to keep the city supplied with water 1b exemplified In the fact that they are paying at the rate of $235 a day for tugs and divers without taking into account Mr. Kirk or his employes' time, which is put in in the same laudable purposes of keeping the city well supplied with water. Description of Crtb. The submerged crib which supplies East Chicago and Indiana Harbor is about 3,000 feet from shore and is twenty feet square by seven inches high. It is composed of nine Dockets.

pipe. The d Containing tha intake

ie uuiiu g)c-u,?,.s walls or JBXj.'inJ between these and the Inside pocket is filled with stone through which the water seeps to get to the intake pipe. At the point where the crib is located the water Is approximately twenty-two

feet deep which makes the top of the crib about fifteen feet below the surface of the bottom of the lake and eventually breaks loose coming to the surface and again sinking. This Ice shush forms about the walls of the crib and prevents the water from getting to the intake pipe. To keep as

'much as possible of this kind of ice

away from the crib tugs are employed to keep it scattered on the surface and divers are used to scrape it away from the walls of the crib. Makes Onllant Fight. That Superintendent Kirk has made the elements is shown by the fact that the city water supply has been cut off but once during the past month of a gallant and successful fight against zero weather, and that for only a short time. The pumping station, located in Lake Front Park, which supplies the 'Twin -Cities, draws . direct from a well thirty feet deep and twenty-four feet in diameter, located near the' shore of the lake and this well is supplied by a thirty-six-inch pipe from tha crib. About one hundred feet out In the lake on this pip? is a T, which extends straight up from the main pipe about four and one-half feet, is there for emergency use and has a cap on, the top of it. Superintendent Kirk at first thought he would remove the cap and permit the water to run right in thorugh this channel, but after considering the proposition he was afraid the slush Ice might get in and form I between the T and the crib, thereby cutting off the supply from that source. The question of why doesn't the water company move their crib farther out in the lake has .been often raised in East Chicago and Indiana Harbor, but the answer is apparent when it Is taken Into consideration that the wa

ter, two, three or even four miles out is only fourteen to fifteen feet deep. The Twin Cities are congratulating

themselves on the small amount of trouble they have had with their water supply this winter, compared with their neighbor towns.
