The work on the Hohman street bridge has been progressing rapidly during the past week and now shows a marked difference. The structural Iron workers have been laid off for the present, as the work on the snan is nearlv romnleted. and all that is holding the work back now is the side railings on the south approach of the bridgeA large force of carpenters are working on the flooring of the bridge and this will be completed by the latter part of the week. The street car rails have been laid up to the south ap proach. It is thought that the cars will be able to j cross the bridge in about two weeks. J. G. BECKER WORKS AGAINST AHIOtl Remonstrances against the annexation of " the rural portion .-of North township to Hammond are being, signed at a lively rate, the work Of. securing signers having begun last Saturday and kept up all this week, The last pub lication of the ordinance was made last Monday and the reraonstratora have ten days' time from this date In which- to file their objection. . : John C. Becker, the township trustee, is working in behalf of the remonstrators and is doing as much as pos sible to get signers. His Hammond friends expected Becker to took at the annexation through Hammond's eyes, because the annexation. wUl' ultimately be inevitable. The trustee, on . the other hand, says-he' Is' representing the property owners and that he cannot be expected to take any ether stand. The remonstrators have employed the law1 firm of ReiHy &Hardy to reprethem. The remonstrance will be filed in the superior court at Crown Point. HAL1M01 WILL BE REPRESENTED THERE Hammond, Ind., April 20. A number of Hammond manufactur ers 'and others have received invlta? tions to the gridiron banquet of the Illinois Manufacturers' association, which is to be held In the Auditorium theater tomorrow night.

It is understood that a floor is to be laid over the seats on the main floor of the auditorium theater' and that the banquet is to be served there, while the balconies will be occupied with the wives and lady friends of the members and their guests. . v The affair is to be similar to the banquets .of the Gridiron club of Washington and a large number of Rotables will be the guests of honor.

BOTH SIDES IE GIVEN HERB

...Hammond, Ind., April 20. Prominent citizens of Hammond are si ill flocking to the support of the fight that is being made against the closing of Johnson street, and letters have even been received from nonresidents who are interested in property on the north side and who have read in The Times of the effort that is being made to close the street. For" instance. Judge Johannes Kopelke of Crown Point, who owns valua ble property here, said this morning, I want to say that I am opposed to the effort that is being mado to close Johnson rtreet. I approve of the full publicity that has been given the mat ter by Thi Times, and think the paper should be commended for making public the facts so that the property; fwnefr cn take 8tops t0 protect Mm in" 'I went to tho trouble to write a letter to Mayor John D. Smalley, In which I stated that while the building of another bridge over the river might not be feasible at the present time the people of Hammond should look to the future and prevent an action which would forever prevent the opening of another street to the north side." William E. Russell of Hammond stated that he is opposed to the closing of the street. He says that when he Hohman street bridge was recently out - f commission he found what a long ay it was to the north side via Calu met avenue or Burnham avenue, and the need of another bridge was never more apparent to him. Dr. E. M. Shanklln stated that he be lieved the future development of the city would, eventually make ltnecesBary to have another thoroughfare to the north side, and that he Is opposed to the closing of the street. He point ed to the fact that there is room for normoua development on the north side and that when it finally takes place two streets will not be enough to carry the traffic between the north and the south sides of the city. J. J. Ruff stated today that he Is opposed to the closing of Johnson street. He declared that it will not be long before another thoroughfare be tween the north and south sides of the city will be needed. - ' Bets Presents Hla Side. None of those who oppose the clos Ing of Johnson street are disposed to be hostile to F. S. Betz. They admit that Bets Is one of the big men of the city. aad that In building up the big Instltu tion on the north side that he has done much for the city.; They believe, how ever, that Mr. Betz can find some other means of expanding his plant and that he is asking too much to close the only street that could be logically opened to the south side. - In fairness, to Mr. Betz, who is one of Hammond's most enterprising men, the senral Pblic should know just wnat ts- invoivea in nis project ana should be acquainted with the plans that he seems to think makes the closing of the street absolutely necessary According ; to an interview which Bets gave The Times last evening. He has long had In contemplation . the es tablishing' of a new Industry, in Hammond. What this industry is he does not state, except : to ; say that it will necessitate the handling of a large ton nage of freight," and will require building 500 feet long, 100 feet wide and three stories high. - Moat Occupy Street. Mr. Betz states further that In order to establish this new industry here in Hammond it - is necessary for him to have adequate trackage facilities. He can find no other place to extend tracks northward, except to run them north on Johnson street. Betz also ad nitted that one of. the objects he, tiac In' view in vacating Johnson street is to make his plants contiguous. He declares that it . 13 Im fr,3C!;3$?3EKe&Otilo R'y Co. or iiKuana TIME OF TRAINS AT HAMMOKu SbJeet 4 change without aetlce.) LEAVE. DAILY. ARRIVE. :47 p. m... Chicago... x12:38 a. m. s 6:17 a. m...
