WILL PLAY

TIMES BCREAV, AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind., March ' 8.--Jiit what part Governor Marshall la going

to have In the formation of;. the nextj .democratic platform la a question which la occupying1 the attention of the politicians. The question of the most Interest to the governor and his. friends Is the liquor question, and -it" U this question-on which there is a great diversity of opinion, as shown by the meeting of b!g democrats at the Denison hotel last Sunday.: The information came out today that in the meeting Sunday, which was attended by members of the state committee and a number of candidates, one loquacious member of the state committee moved that the question of a platform be considered, and he. It Is said, was ruled out of order by State Chairman Jackson, who was presiding. From that time forward the soft pedal was put on when it came to a discussion, of the platform, but there was no way of stopping platform discussion down in the lobby. One man who is very close to Thomas Taggart made the statement that the democrats would reaffirm the plat

form of two years ago declaring for township and ward local option. Today

this statement was denied by a democrat who is "a close friend of Governor

Marshall." This democrat said that

Thomas Taggart and his followers had

not decided as yet what they" would at

tempt to get Into the platform,, but he

said that It was bis understanding from

reliable sources that the brewers, would

keep hands Off and that the democratic conventjon would merely declare

against sumptuary legislation. The

brewers, he said, would do all. of their

fighting in the state legislature. f

However, among those who" attended

the meeting at the Denison,, the senti

ment seemed to be for a reaffirmation of the old democratic platform, ' and if Thomas Taggart has any other ideas

he-has not yet handed them'dwa be

cause most of those -who aUendedthe

Denison conference were Taggart men.

It seems to be. a question of just how

much trouble the governor can cause in case he is given no word in the affairs of the state convention. It is the general belief .that if Taggart thinks he can get by' witfi it he will have a reaffirmation of the old platform. If he thinks this ""will be going a- little

too far he '-will change his plans.1

DEATH 0

NO ER

Mrs. Henry V. Lindner. . corner of

Hammond, did yesterday evening at the Grman hospital in Chicago. Mrs. Lindner underwent an operation about ten days ago, she having been ailing for a hmber of years. Her death can, however, only be ascribed indirectly to the operation. The death of Mrs. Lindner is all the more regrettable because she leaved five children. the oldest of which is only 14 years and the youngest year and a half. Mr. Lindner, the husband of the deceased, is the treasurer of the Western Grain Products lompany. . The funeral has been arranged for next Sunday afternoon. Services will be held at the house at about 1 o'clock, with the Rev. C. A. Smith of Hammond In charge. Interment, will be at Oak Hill cemetery. .) , ' - PARMEB.S TAUGHT A LESSON - (Continued rrom Pag 1.) ment of which was reversed, to show

what he believed to be the injustice of the law.. His remarks were so excoriating and pointed for the benefit of the rourt attaches and the state inspector that he frequently stood in the pale of contempt of court. While Mr. Stommel admitted that he himself had been a school teacher and also a justice of the peace, his remarks were Irrelevant and his arguments not at all within the confines of the Issues. His conduct was amusing up to a point where he "got on the court's nerves." Fine of Grace Has Expired. Both Mr. Thielen and Mr. Stommel told the inspector and the court that they were doing their level best to put clean milk on the market, and believed themselves to be the victims of unfortunat circumstances. Mr. Tucker, on the other hand, told the defendants that it was not his place to persecute, but that the time of grace for the farmers had passed and that he believed that he had conducted his campaign of education long enough. He told the defendants that the statistics in Indiana would show that of 1,700 children who had been feed on bottled milk and died subsequently, the death of 1,200 was

due to the fact "that they were fed

Impure milk. . Sample Take a at Random.

In thejr respective neighborhoods both Mr. Thielen and Mr. Stommel are known as honest and hard working farmers, but the test which the state

chemist made showed that the milk

that they put on the Hammond market did not have that degree of perfection

which the law now requires. Mr. Thiel

en took his case philosophically, but Mr. Stommel could not see why he

should be picked out when he conducts

his dairy Just like many other farmers

that he knows of. Mr. Tucker explain

ed to him that when he took the sam

ple at the depot he did not know that

it was milk from the Stommel dairy, nor did he care that his duty is merely

to take samples and submit them to the state chemist. Constable Julius Taussig was prepared to serve the warrant on J. I. Klnsey today.

Max Finkelestein, who has the registered trade mark, being at the head of the business. The trade mark printed is a copy of a gold medal which Mr. Flnkelsteln received from the governor of Tashkent during the. Russian-Japanese war. The governor having learned that Mr. inkelstein was an excellent cutter and designer, suggested that the firm em

ploying Mr. Flnkelstein permit him to act as cutter for the sick soldiers of the Russian army. When the war was

over the governor of Tashkend sum

moned the tailor before him again and offered to pay him. But the latter, having been paid by his firm, would not accept money from the government.

The governor then promised him the

medal and later gave It to him, with

high compliments for his work. The

medal Is the Red Cross design of Rus

sia, and is in itself a thing of beauty.

(Continued from Page 1.)

the completion of his road, made Impossible by the Incompleted bridge

over the Calumet and the fill across the marsh, were wholly responsible for the

fact that cars were not running on the line at present. Seamen stated that already nearly $2,500 had been spent in grading and engineer work. The controversy in question was simply to

gain control of the portion of road recently annexed by Gary from the center of the Calumet bridge south to the Ridge road . Seamen claims that this strip la invaluable and necessary to the life of his road and without it he would be compelled to abandon the project of the Gary and Southern, thus depriving Gary of the advantage of an excellent interurban service to Crown Point, Cedar Lake and Lowell, and the south part of the county, most necessary to the future welfare of the Bteel city, an opportunity to gain the only access to Gary, which they have been offered up to the present time. WHAT GAV1T WANTED. President Gavit seemed to want control of the strip of land south of the

bridge, depriving the Seamen interests of this stretch, which means the life of their road, and building a line only to the Ridge road, thus depriving Gary people access further south, or people living south of the Ridge road access Into Gary.

HIS TWO GOLD TEETH WON HER PARENTS OVER

Logansport, Ind.. March 8. Mrs. Omer Smoke of Columbus, led., in a letter sent to the police here, asking that they arrest her husband on the charge of wife desertion, says that she would never have married him, but her parents saw that he had two gold teeth and believed that he was a man of wealth. The wife, who is not yet out of her teens, says that her parents objected to the marriage for a long time, but finally became Impressed with Smoke's gold teeth and concluded that a man who is rich enough to have gold teeth would be a good husband for her. They gave their consent' and the marriage was performed. Smoke left shortly afterward. The police here have been unable to find him. -

Mr. Seamen stated that he was willing to have the franchise extended for a period of ninety days following the completion of the road and bridge and guaranteed to have his line in operation at the end of that time, and that his company would have had the road in operation at the present time but for the obstacles aforementioned. . CONNECT WITH HAMMOND. The Gary and Southern promoter further revealed the Intentions of his company by stating that they are preparing to ask for franchises and pur

chase right of way along the Ridge road, for the purpose of connecting this present road with Hammond, thus giving the people south of the Calumet river the most excellent traction service between the two great cities and manufacturing districts north of the river. Mr. Seamen also promised the commissioners to have his line ready

to operate within the next six months

and would buy his tracks and build the other necessary work to the points

where he would be compelled to wait

for Contractors Crowell and Ahlbori to complete the bridge, and road across

the marsh. TO SPEND S4OO,000.

Mr. Seamen estimated that an expen

diture of at least $400,000 would be

necessary to put the Gary and South

The noard of commissioners after a' lengthy consideration of the matter, consulting with the county attorney as to the legality of their act, finally consented to extend the time limit on the Seamen franchise six months, stating that they were prepared to see that Contractors Crowell and Ashborn made no further delays in the completion of their contracts, and that Mr. Seamen would have to show his good faith by

) carrying out the purposes of his fran

chise before he could hope to avail himself of further favors from the board.

The validity and legality of the com

missioners' further grant Is a matter

of some speculation by attorneys here.

and a prominent lawyer, well versed in such matters, stated to a Times' reporter ast evening that while the commissioners last grant might be

legal, there is still the question of the matter being tied up In a legal tangle

for some time. He stated, however,

that there could be no question as to the validity of Mr. Seamen's first franchise to the Gary bridge, and although

this land had been annexed to Gary since the time of the granting of the franchise. It could not annul the power or right of the Instrument over the territory in question. The attorney stated that to avoid any legal controversy or the tying up of Mr. Seamen's interest in the courts, it would be the wisest move Mr. Seamen could make to build his tracks and operate if possible a car or cars on the disputed territory before the expiration of the time allowed on his first franchise.
