ELECTION CASE TO TAKE LONG TilVIE Four Charges Against May or T. K. KJlOttS Valparaiso Court. in With the whirlwind finish of six of th election cases at Valparaiso much interest hinges around the trial of Mayor T. E. Knotts, Chief of Police Martin and others Indicted by tho grand Jury, whose cases will come up for trial next Monday. The trial of the indicted officials Is the most important of any that has com up at Valparaiso and while the State has failed ti convince the Jury of the guilt of th defendants In the preceding cases it is said that they have a strong chain of evidnce against Mayor Knotts and Chief Martin Whether the state will fail In these cases remains to be seen. There are four counts in the Indict ments against Mayor Knotts, Chief Martin, P. C. Flnnerty, Charles Mullen. Captain Gus Newman. William Miller and W. H. riper. The four charges are conspiracy to bring sluggers Into the state to serve as deputy marshalls. conspiracy to intimidate votes at the pollss; conspiracy to commit an assault upon Sheriff Grant with Intent to kill, and conspiracy to steal the ballot boes and election returns. The state will make an effort to select the Jury with the greatest of care and It is thought that it will take several weeks before the evidence la all in. MOTIONS AND ORDERS.

LAKE WOODS PARK U U ENTERTAINS AERO CLUB

George P. Mills, member of the Aero Club of Illinois, the Aeronautical league of Chicago, member of th3 United States Aeronautical Reserve,' president o fthe Modern School of Aviation of Chcago, and aeronautical editor of the Show World' of Chicago was at Lake Woods Park yesterday, the guest of Will Reed Dunrov, director of publicity. Mr. Mills came to Gary for the purpose of looking over the aeroplane made by two carpenters who have been working on the buildings at Lake Woods. "I am greatly impreseed with Gary and with its re-'arkahle growth and vigor. It is a revelation to me, and I feel sure that the city Is destined to become of still vaster Importance as the j-ears go by. There seems to be considerable interest In aeronautics ln Gary, and several men have spoken to me of and there are several members of the big aeronautic clubs In Gary and vicinity. Just no wthere is great ln Chicago which wll be held on BELfflONT HOTEL AGAIN IN fOUCE COURT West ' Hammond Woman Visits There and Gets Into Trouble. (Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Ind., June 17. May Brown, a West Hammond woman, was arrested yesterday afternoon in company with Albert Orsl, a bartender in Noble Morelli's buffet, as a result of a quarrel had on a H., W. & E. C. street car as the West Hammond product was preparing to go home. Incidentally, some Interesting de?velopmcnts came out at the trial after Officer Ed Shields had taken the pair before Judge Walter J. Riley in the city court. It was charged that Orsl, who rooms at the Belmont hotel, took the West Hammond woman to his rooms earlier in the evening and spent several hours in her presence. The couple got into an altercation and the bartender accused the Brown woman of taking money from him. She wanted to take the last car home and trouble followed. The reputation of the unsavory Belmont hotel was brought out in the recent grand Jury investigation. Judge Riley fined the woman $5 and costs after she had spent the night in jail, and Orsl gave a $50 bond to appear later for trial. "', )' I .1 JMWlIf Ml vt.

August 12. "This meet, which is financed by Harold McCormick will not be run for profit, Airville, the location of the meet is now under construction, under the direction of Captain Horace B. Wild and there are eight machines there now, two o fthem of entirely new types. A purse of 8SO.00O hav been guaranteed by the Aero club as prizes for aviators competing. This Is one of the first corrpetetive meets In the United States. The club' guarantees expenses of aviatior and for transportation of machines and so on. If they get any prze money, they must earn it. Under the new regime a man must compete, or he will not cut a slice of the big melon. Too much , credit can not be given Harold McCormick for the public spirit he ha sdlsplayed and to Captain Horace H. Wild for th painstaking manner in which he has laid out grounds of Airville. While ln Gary I called on Sam Worrell, who has built a biplane, and he will probably exhibit his glider at Airville." EDITOR FARR IS ARRESTED YESTERDAY (Special to Thb Times.) Whiting, Ind., June 17. One of the Lake Shore suburban conductors was punched good and proper the other day' by E. H. Farr editor of the Whiting Call who was arrested yesterday ln South Chicago charged with having assaulted E. T. Tree, a collector, on a Lake Shore & Michigan Southern train on May 30. Farr charges that Tree was exceedingly Impertinent when he collected the editor's fare and his insolence was more than Farr could stand, so he just naturally punched his face. The affair took place when the Whit lng man was on his Way to Chicago, yesterday was the first time since tha,t Farr had set foot on Illinois soil and a burly South Chicago constable was there, waiting at the church for him. Mr. Farr was surprised but went to the police station where he gave bond. The trial was booked for this morning, but Farr insists that the case cannot be tried In Illinois, owing to the trouble having occurred before th Illinois state line was reached. HORSE THIEF TAKEN. The police were notified this morning that the horse thief who stole Jake Diamond's horse about ten days ago had been captured in Chicago after he had sold the horse and rig at the Randolph street market.
