A Well-Known Man of Michigan City Tells of . Being Cured of Rheumatism. Such cases as the following are being treated Ind cured at my office over the Lion Store right along. Mr. Olson had been afflicted for a long time and was naturally anxiou3 to have his experience known that it might help some other unfortunate to be cured. He writes as follows: Dear Doctor Leedy: 1 just want you to know how well I feel since I have taken treatment of you for rheumatism. ( For over a year I have had rheumatism in my foot and ankle. For five long months It was so sore and lame that I could not work. - The pain was excruciating. Si ace I commenced taking your medicine and electrical treatment I have had practically no trouble , and for the last several weeks I have felt nothing at all. I would be glad to have you use this letter as a testimonial. Perhaps it might be the means of starting some other poor rheumatic to taking treatment, which I am sure will do him more good than any thing i else that he can do. ' A. G. OLSON, 115 Decatur St..

WHERE 6ARY HAS BULGE Of PITTSBURG

The fact that iron ore can be unloaded at the harbor of the United States Steel corporation at Gary at ,t cost of approximately one half of what jit is at Pittsburg, has lead the mil'lionaires of that city to plan the construction of a $100,000,000 canal project connecting Pittsburg with lake Kriu in order to lcsen the transportation cost. j In fact is Pittsburg so concerned that Gary will eventually gain supremacy over It as a steel center, that the city has offered $100,000,000 to the government if they win build the proposed water way. Says a dispatch from "Washington to the Indianapolis News: ; Oary Canned the Demand. If the United States Steel Cororation had not established the city of Gary. J,,u- P"-T"",y "-"' wou.u .,ve oeen "enmmi mat mis waterway connecting the city of Pittsburg with was a to members of the national ,' waterways commission during its visit jto Pittsburg that unless congress ; should open the way for the building the cost. We are told that it will be in the neighborhood of $100,000,000. We have the money and all we ask of the federal government is that it shall take tllis money and build this canat just xs u ,s building the Panama canal. We desire the government to do the work becuse we believe it can do it better than it could be done through any Prfte arrangement.' Afraid. Pittsburg's great concern is over the fact that the city of Gary 1s so situated on Lake Michigan that the iron and steel industry located here obtains its iron ore much cheaper1 than ore can be obtained anywhere in the Pittbtirg district. The present cost of transport ing iron ore from the ore mines In northern Michigan to the Pittsburg district is $1.12 a ton. This rate Is fixed by railroad haul from lake ports to the Pittsburg district. The Plttsburgers say that with the building of the proposed waterway this rate of $1.12 a ton will be cut in half. The estimate is that after the canal Is in operation iron ore will be delivered to Pittsburg at 55 cents a ton. This is about what it costs to lay ore down at the plant of the.

East Fifth Avenue Now Tied Up Similar to the South End of B roadway.

The expected has happened. "Citi zens' of Gary have secured a restrain ing order to prevent the Gary & Interurban Railway Company from com pleting the construction of its Fifth avenue tracks east to the coke vekn. This action was taken after the City or Gary had been enjoined from interfer ing with the work. Gary thus has a legal tangle on Fast Fifth avenue, similar to that on South Broadway beyond the river, and no car service r the people in sight. What is all this about? Why this interference with proper street railway construction? Merely to take away from the people the privilege which they now enjoy of buying eight ulreet ror ticket for twrntr-tve cent from t he Gary & Interurban Company an I force them to pay forty rtnl for the same number of tickets and poorer service, to a man named Geist. Do the working people of Gary wan, to buy eight car tickets for twentyfive cents, or doy rnty want to pay forty cents for eight car tickets? Tho answer to that question is in the hands of your aldermen. Do the people of Gary want their street railway company to help meet the expenses of the city by paying into the city treasury five per cent of its earnings, or do they want to give Geist and his eastern associates free use of their street for fifty years to come? the t . .

Do the people of Gary, which is to be a second Pittsburg, want to suffefrom the evils snd extra expense of a double car system, as the city of Pittsburg has suffered; neither company making money enough to give proper street car service. The Gary & Interurban Railway Company already Is runnings cars. oi the only streets of Gary where there is any transportation business. These streets are the nucleus of a system, which 'as Gary grows, should radiate out from these oenvi lies, with a universal transfer, one faro to all parts of the city, and eight tickets for a quarter. The Geist interests demand the free use of the streets for fifty years; demand the right to exact five cents for every car fare instead of giving eight rides for a quarter, and they seek to tie up the principal streets of the city for a period of three years, in the expectation that in that tim? a iranchise on some of these streets may prove very valuable. If you want the cheapest and best street car service possible for Gary, interest yourself in this matter; see your alderman personally; demand that he shall vote against giving away your streets to Geist and his associates, who seek to double the car fare yon must pay, thereby placing a heavy burden on the people for fifty years.

Hammond, Whiting, - RATE INQUIRY TO LEAD TOWARD STEEL TRUST New York, May !. The hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commission on the complaint of the Alpha Portland Cement Company against the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad for discrimination in favor of the Universal Portland Cement Company, a Steel Trust subisidiary, will open here on Monday. It is confidently expected that before, the hearing is closed a plain clew will be given the Congressional probers operating under the Stanley resolution to the relations between the giant steel corporation and the railroads. In other words, it will be revealed that the directors of the Steel Trust belong to the boards of so many railroads and affiliated interests that they are in a position to determine- outright the policies of the roads, event to the extent of causing discrimination in rates and service against industrial concerns in competition with subsidiaiy companics of the steel corporation. The complaint of the Alpha Portland Cement Company is not confined to thi Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, but includes the Pennsylvania." New lout Central, Rock Island. Illinois Central, Frisco and others. The complaint as o the Baltimore & Ohio sets up tha th-? Steel Trust's Universal Portland Cement Company is favored by the railroad to the extent of about 20 per cent in freight rates. The I'riversal's twn main plant are nnr Pittsburg an 1 Chicago. Tlie Alpha Company's chief plants are at Manheim, "W. Va., and in the Lehigh Valley district. The total tonnage of Portland cement in the United States last year was about 175,00(1.000 tons, against less than 400.000 tons twenty years ago. Of la'U year's production the Universal Company produced about 12,000.000 ton and the Alpha Company about 5,000.000. Tlie Atlas Cement Company, absorbed by .?. Pierpont Morgan, two years ago, produced evj?n a greater tonnage. Although it is officially denied that tlie Atlas now belongs to the Steel Trust, the trade Is aware of the extremely intimate'' relations that have existed between the Universal and the Atlas since .1. P. Morgan financed the latter into Steel Trust control. Specific instances of gross discrimIllxcrlniinatlcH In Shown, ination by the Baltimore - Ohio are given. For example, the distance from the Universal's Pittsburg mills to Parkersburg, W. Va.. is forty miles less than the distance from the Alpha's
