STORY IS

JUST WEE BIT WRONG

In Fact, There Is no. Truth Whatever in Statement Made in Gary Paper That United Railways of Chicago Are Back of Geist. The report In a Gary paper to the effect that the United Railway's Co. of Chicago Is back of the project which is being promoted by C. H. Geist to build! a new interurban system connecting: the cities of the Calumet .region is denied by A. L. Drum of the A. L. Drum Co. which operates the Hammond. Whiting & Bast Chicago Railway Co. the. Indiana lines of the United Railway's Co. of Chicago. Mr. Drum was Interviewed in his office in Chicago this morning. He stated that while he is concerned chieflly with the operating end of the business he would make some inquiries at the general office of the United Railway's Co. of Chicago and give The Times what Information he could get. In a subsequent interview he stated that the United Railway's Co. of Chicago has positively no dealings with C. H. Geist and that the rumor that Geist is getting the franchises for this company is merely conjecture. Through the United Railway's Co. of Chicago an imaginary connection was established with the United States Steel Co. but this is more the product of a vivid Imagination than based on actual facts. Manager Green, who also stated that he would make some inquiries about the reported connection of C. H. Geist with the United Railway's Co. of Chicago said that he Is convinced that no relations between the two companies exist. STATE LAW Petro Stuglutus, 150 Adams street and Petro Strongendus. 1536 efterson street were arrested yesterday afternoon on the charge of keeping unsanitary bakeries by Inspector Charles Mullen and were fined by Judge Ora L. lldermbuth in the police court this monlng. i'esteday Inspector Mullen in making an inspection of the bakeries of Gary visited Stuglutus' place while he was In the act of preparing his dough. The foreigner was in his bare feet and frequently scratched .the bottom of his feet while he was kneading the doug.i without making any attempt to wash his hands etc. This was more than Inspector Mullen.could stand so he placel the baker under arrest.

WELCOME PARKS. -i Gary is to have another little breathing place this summer, one where the trees and grass are green and away from the sifting sands. The directors of Lakewoods park in the 20-acre tract has reserved seven acres wh'.cli will be used exclusively for picnics and outings, for church societies and lodges. Here around the natural like the children will be able to romp and play on the green sward to their hearts' content. Here they may go wading, bathing and boating and everything will be done for the amusement of the children that is possible. The park is situated on the Gary and Interurban railway, but a short distance from Gary, and the park promises to become a popular one this Summer.

Sullivan Bros, whose show at Hobart last wek was involved in a little excitement, arrived in Indiana Harbor last night intending to present their show in this city, but were refused a license by the police. ' The management of the show were exceedingly disappointed at their failure to secure a license, and (declared that the reports that manated from Hobart regarding the little unpleasantness engaged between members of their troupe and some of the townsfolk of Hobart though good advertising were responsible for it. "We try to run a peaceful show," said John Sullivan, one of the brothers who is managing the company, "and the row at Hobart was precipitated by Hobart people. It did not amount to much at that and before we" had left Hobart, everything was straightened out and we left with good feeling on our side for Hobart and on the side of the townspeople for us. The fact as stated in your papor that we fired the man involved in the row shows thatj we won't stand for rough house or riots. "We did not leave In the night as the!

He laughed about, place hy its prompters, and that they It, but now comes the story from ? may not- be able to head it off when the Washington that Kern buttons have I right time comes, but this opinion doej appeared there and that a number of . not seem to be well founded, well known.

But it is pointed out that b'e cross for Ralston, and it is not beby splitting the Democrats of Indiana Heved that Tagart would do that to his into two rival camps, one favoring old friend.

It has been the belief here for somo time that Taggart was working a) clever game to bring about this result, ji tie nas never said he was opposed to Marshal, and he would not say he was opposed to Kern if on were to ask him, but at the sametimthose who know his footprints, say they are able to see his tracks leading. into the Harmon camp. The plan is for .him to o; manipulate things in Indiana as to make it easy for him to get the Indiana delegation to agree on Harmon as its second choice for th nomination. Taggart will be perfectly willing for the Indiana delegation to be for either maiBiiaii VJI AC1H un . llie III Si. Dauot, oecause ne reels mat neitner on nas any chance of being nominated.

Mr. Geist assured his listeners that all possible haste would be made in the construction of his line.- He outlined the working of his interests in northern Indiana since he took hold of the Northern Indiana Gas and Electric plant In Hammond some ten years ago until the present time, and said he had no further desire to wprk but for the interests and ad4 J ig.)(e more pride and pleasure said Mr. Geist in promoting the advancement of this region than In any other city where I have Interests in the I'nited States because this is where I made my start. What is heeded more than -anything is a booster club reach ing from South Chicago to Gary and j then you would be able to accomplish! something." . . , J : Mr. Geisfs last -remark- wae- received

with much-applause. .

Short talk, were made by C. J. Jeff- . rey and ex-Senator A. J. Bowser of, Chesterton, in which both said that Mr. I Geist had Interests behind him to dot things and that they felt assured that! Mr. Geist would do all he promised tn 1 giving Gary a magnificent traction system. -'. Captain II. S. Norton gave a strong talk In which he defended the people's rights in regards to the awarding franchises for public utilities and said they had a right to know what was be ing done with the streets. "Gary .wants street cars on every street where they should be and wants them at once said Captain Norton. The Ridge road is entitled to a car line, not in one, three or six years, but at once and the only way to keep the retail center where it Is is to bring the outlying districts in touch with it." Captain Norton said that he thought the Commercial club's report was a conservative one although he himself would not have recommended the clause wherein the city should be entitled to go through the books of the company and a division of the profits for thecity. He also paid that the Commercial club did not blame Mr. Geist but they did blame the hasty manner in which the franchise was railroaded through the council. ' s H. a. Hay strongly criticised the city administration for its haste in passing the franchise. Mr. Hay said he did not blame Mr. Geist for trying to get all he could but he did blame the city administration for the way the franchise was put through on the "to hell with the public" principle.
