much among the democrats. The conference at Washington was discussed around the governor office today, and while no direct word came from the governor, it is understood from his friends that the governor will oppose any of the plans mentioned at Washington and that he will oppose the plan which has been suggested as a compromise measure. "The governor," said one of his close friends, "believes that the platform should declare for leaving the liquor question , to the legislature, and I am sure that he will make a fight on this very issue. The governor was not very anxious to dictate in the organisation of the democratic state committee, but it will be a different proposition when it comes to drafting a state platform." But the whole thing Illustrates pretty well that there is wide difference of opinion among the democrats on the liquor question.

RENEGADES

WILL IftKE GREAT STUB

Members: New York Stock Exchange Chicago Stock Exchange

137 Adams Street Chicago

The renegade ' republicans of Gary,

otherwise known as the insurgents, will attempt to wage a great battle this evening for the control of the or

ganization. It has been stated that if unsuccessful in this they will go so far as to hold a rump convention where

they will select committeemen .and delegates to the Hammond convention of tehlr own choice.

The standpatters, or those who stood

by the . republicans in the last city campaign,' have no fear of losing control of the party.' All that they

ask and will demand is an honest fight

with "democrats "barred and conducted

with proper observance of parliamen

tary usages. f

The insurgents, who have had as their organ, of publicity, the democratic

paper owned by Mayor Knotts. declared

through that sheet that a coterie or standpatters will attempt to dictate the delegates, and committeemen selected, and mention prominently the name of Captain H. S. Norton. The latter was interviewed this morning by a Times reporter, however, and he declared that he would riot even be present at the mass meeting this evening. He said: "All that I 'am interested in is the selection of the committeemen and dele

gates by real republicans. I think that the renegades " or the outlaws should not be given a voice at the meeting.

Not having attended any of the republican meetings recently. I do not know who the candidates for the offices will be. Personally 1 am in favor of any one of a dozen good men in this city and whom I think would be able leaders as well as good republicans." -It Is expected tonight that the session will be almost as. warm as the one which was held two years ago and in which Judge Huber and C. O. Holmes carried on one of the most bitter political, strifes of the political history of Gary. The meeting will be held in the Gary building in one of the store rooms. Today the various candidates have been busy lining up their forces for the set-to this evening.

additional ' motormen, conductors and c4r barn employes. Adding to these the additional trackmen, linemen and office force, the .' Hammond company will

probably -increase its payroll by about! fifty regular men and by about two hundred construction men for work this year. ' ' About twenty miles of new copper feeder! cable will be installed on the present lines in order to provide . for the additional cars' required for new business and Improving of power and electric lighting under the present and

future running conditions. With the rehabilitation of the tracks on Indiana boulevard, . Schrage avenue and Forsyth . avenue and the doubletracking of State street and the extensions to.be constructed on State street via the Standard Steel works and. Forsyth avenue to East Chicago, and the

extension from East Chicago via 141st

street to the center of Indiana Harbor,

the Hammond company will complete a

system of car service between the cities and towns of North township, includ-;

ing Whiting. East Chicago, Indiana Harbor and Hammond which will cover the entire territory. This system of through car service will give to the citizens of Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago and Indiana Harbor through car service - for a ' five-cent fare ' over about forty, miles of .tracks in a terri tory nine miles north and south and five' miles east and west. The citizens of North- township can' congratulate themselves on the fact that-nowhere in the United States or In the world is there a 'territory of the population and size of North township with a system

of street railways covering the entire

territory for a five-cent fare. This condition is illustrated by the fact that j a passenger is hauled for five cents from the east end of Morton avenue, at the Standard Steel works gate, to the state line at Roby street, a distance of over nine miles. The managers and employes of the

j large factories located in Hammona, i Whiting, East Chicago and Indiana ' Harbor all realize the great benefit to ' the comrflunity by reason of the extensions of the Hammond company's lines ' In the district, as it permits the managI ers and employes to live and own-their

homes in any part of the district and change the location of their employment without sacrificing the investment they ' have made In building up their ow nhomes. They realize that the proposed extensions from Hammond via State street through the eastern district of the city of Hammond and thence north to East Chicago and from Eas Chicago via 141st street to Indiana Harbor will open up new territory and make same available for factory sites and residences, and will place this new territory on a five-cent fare basis with the balance of the territory within the boundaries of North township.

on the Liquor Question, and Meeting at Washington Is Chief Topic of Discussion.

TIMES BUREAU, AT STATE CAPITAL. . Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 27. Mild and

unsuspecting democrats of Indiana had

an opportunity to see which way the wind Is blowing when the j. word came back from Washington yesterday that a' conference of democrats had been held there for the purpose of discussing the attitude of the party toward the liquor question. This little conference has been the chief topic of con

versation today among republicans as J well as democrats. " , j The conference at Washington, which was attended by Thomas Honor!, speak- j er of the last house of representatives,,1 and by all of the democratic congress- ' men, was merely the first "apparent re- i

suit of something that has been developing for some time, and that is a .wide difference of opinion - among the democrats on the question of liquor agitation: Three courses were considered by the men at Washington. -One was that the democratic platform, should not

mention the liquor question in ay way, j either directly or indirectly .another! was that the platform should declare! In general terms against all sumptuary' legislation, and a third was that, It' should declare for the township unit and the $1,000 license law. This last ! proposition was understood to repre-

sent the wishes of the brewers, and it: is said that at the conference at Wash- ! Ington it was practically decided that' this plan should be opposed. . ! But back here In Indiana it is known j that there is still another plan which is being considered, and a well-known politician gave the advice today that those who wish to keep in touch with the situation should keep their eye on the fourth plan, which was not discussed at Washington because he believed that ultimately this was the plan whleh would be adopted. This plan is

to declare for the repeal of the county option law and for a law which will provide for option with the county and incorporated city as a unit. Or It might be that the plan would be to declare for the city as the unit without declaring for the repeal of the county option law. It is the understanding that the brewers will attempt to make this kind of a compromise with the democratic leaders. The brewers believe that the people of the country should not be allowed to aid In voting incorporated cities dry because the sentiment in the country is different from what it is In

the city. This plan has been discussed

political mistake if he appointed a man from" any "other part of the state. Fort Wayne Is getting Into the race good and strong for the place. State Sena

tor Steve Fleming of Fort Wayne was

In conference with' the governor yes

terday and a short time after he was In

A. M. Schmidt, the defeated candidate) for mayor of Fort Wayne, was in. It j

Is understood that Mr. Schmidt will not land the appointment. Senator Fleming is said to be working In the in

terests of George A. Bittler. W. F.

Ranke of Fort Wayne Is another candidate who Is mentioned for the place. The delay of the governor in announcing an appointment Indicates that he is having some trouble In making up his mind. The fact that Mr. Fogarty had resigned became public before the governor intended that it should, and on the next day the governor went to

when he returned he would be ready to announce an appointment at once. However, the announcement has not yet been made. It is understood though, that the appointment is to be made soon. ' . A movement has ben. set on foot In the last few days to pick out a number of high class men for places on the democratic state ticket. This plan has not as yet had the approval of all of the democratic leaders and it is being freely discussed. One of those, it ia said, who would be greatly interested In the movement to get a high ciass democratic ticket is Mark Thistlethwaite, secretary to the governor. If a movement of this kind should go through It would mean that the skids would be put under a number of men who have been mentioned for certain

Places on the ticket. It Is understood that Thomas Honoa of Seymour would not be In it for attorney-general. Honan is regarded as high class enough all right and Is bright enough and there Is nothing against him. but there seems to be an idea that he is not old and experienced enough for the place of attorney-general. In connection' with this new movement Albert Sahm of Indianapolis Is talked of for the place of auditor of state and there are some who say that this .was In. Mr. Sahm'i mind recently when he announced that he would not be a candidate .for: reelection as auditor of Marion county. Mr. Sahm was one of the few democrats, elected In Marlon county two yM;a(fO.
