TO HEAR STANDARD OIL CASES '. Judge Landis Prepares for Early Trial of Rebating Charges.

Five charges of rebating against the Standard Oil Company of Whiting:. Ind.. wll probably be set down for an early hearing when a call of all pending crim inal cases Is made berore Judge K. M. Landis jn the United States District Court next, Thursday. It' is expected that a calendar can be prepared and the, trial of some of the 200 or 300 pending cases will begin on Nov. 1. "We shall Insist that counsel for the defendant's be prepared to go ahead. said District Attorney J. H. Wilkerson yesterday, "and. likewise, I shall insist that my attorneys be ready to go ahead. AVe shall attempt to have cases tried in the order in which they arose." MOTOR GAR A! HORSE COLLIDE ON RAILROAD Rensselaer. Ind., Oct. 14. C. J. Hobbs, of Kersey, who was appointed engineer of the Marble ditch a. week ago, suffered a fractured t'kull Thursday night and is now at "Wheat field, in a coditlon thought to be serious. , Frank E. Lewis, general manager of the Chicago Wabash Valley railroad: Joe Milliard, assistant cashier of the Hank of Wheatfleld.-an 1 P. A. FaFond. agent of the Three I railroad at Kersey, w ere also somewhat injured at , the same time Mr. Hobbs was hurt. All four were riding on a railroad motor car on the C. & E. I. railroad., north of Wheatfleld, returning to that town from iome point further north. It was about 9 o'clock Thursday night and was very dark and foggy and the men report that they could not see ten feet ahead of them. At Dunn's siding, near the Kankake e river, they collided with a horse belonging to Lon Nee.se, and all were thrown from the car and all suffered injuries of a ore or less serious nature, while the. horse was killed. CASE THROWN OUT OF COURT (Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Ind., Oct. It. S. Szezetlowski a former workman for the Inland steel company was before Judge Riley yesterday to be tried as to his sanity. A complaint, charging the man to be Insane and signed by a South C'hlcagoan was the basis of the proceedings. Drs. A. G. Sehlieker, A. A. Boss an dC C. .'Robinson had been selected to act as a comTnie-flon, but Judge Riley after questioning the complain ing witness and learning that the latter had signed fhe complaint without knowing what he had signed, threw thj case out of court. The workman was injured not lon ago while "at work in the Inland mill. He sought damages for his injuries air? retained Attorney Dan Moran to prose cute his claim. Attorney Moran learn ed not long ago however that his client had settled the case out of court with out his knowledge and the man's fami !y now "want the settlement set aside on the grounds that he was Insane and therefore not competent to make a set tlement with the company. PICK PEES timoTU mii i inuQ illt IS11LLIUI1U Men With ; a Little Nerve and, Brains Invest and Win. There is SB olI adage that, "Some men are ' bbrn lucky," but, generally wnen you iook into cases or luck " you will find '. that there was nerve an1 brains behind it. ' For example, there are men who have never seen Western Canada and yet Dy studying conditions there and put ting in a little money at just the righ rpot, have pulled out tidy little for tunes In a few years.- Their neighbors called them "lucky," but it was mostly "horse sense. Up In Prince Rupert, Calgary, Ed monton.and other new Canadian towns which have sprung up almost ove night, the rise in value of lots bought before the railroad came in, has been stupendous. To one who has not ac tually been in touch. with condltlona in uanaaa it seems like a fairy tale to read thatlSO to $500 lots have often advanced to $1,500, $5,000, $10,000 and in some cases, to $50,000 but the facts are mere reaay ior proor lor anyone who investigates. - - The biggest thing now going on in Canada is the building of the great new Grand Trunk Pacific Railway which Is rapidly stretching out over , an Im mensely wealthy territory. In a commanding position in the center of British Columbia and directly on the main line of this new railroad is Fort Fraser, a townsite wonderfully bles with opportunity. Surrounded by a wealth of literally hundreds of millions in agricultural alnds and products. Fort Fraser has probably a brighter future than any other town in this giant region of the Northwest. The railroad's grading mp is now. within two miles of the

townsite and there is a restless Ity already stirring in the way c ning buildings, connecting ra eto ... i As soon as the first train is sen the line the boom is bound to com nd those of you who had the ne et lots early wi!l begin to reap your arvest. Doubling and tripling their money is sure within a few months, and he future, if measured by the-Ulstory f other places, should make investors rich.' When you can get Fort Eraser lots . ow at frnm 11(i tr it ft nml an fn eary terms of 10 per cent down and 5 er cent per month (no Interest or taxe; ntit fully paid), with titles guaraneed by the British Columbian Govern ment itself, it would seem that this of fers about the safest and most promisng Investment you can possibly make. Ppence. Jordan & Co. 312 Marquette BIdg.. Chicago, are employed by the Townsite Company for the purpose of giving reliable information to those who want to get action In a Write to them about it. Adv. PLAN HEW SITE FOR RESIDENCE Recommendations ir.acfe today, by Captain H. S. Norton, property agent of the Gary Lanl company, if acted upon by the directors of the' United States Steel corporation, will result in the creation of a new residential district in the second subdivision which will be the finest in the state. What is! now a hea-ily wooded sand dune wilderness will be transformed into two or three imposing boulevard streets. Only high class residences will be jermitted in the district and thousands of dol-! lars will be spent in trees, Vn"ns, parkways and garden spots. The proposed entrance is in Fifth avenue, two or three streets west of Filmore street. Several Fifth avenue lots will be resered as a gateway to the exclusive district. It is planned that the entrance shall be very imposing and the best that art can afford in grouping columns. gateways, trees. flowers, shrubbery, fountains and other outdoor effects wi'.l be employed, lots will have sixty feet frontage. All EAST GARY IS NOW ON MAP IContlnued from Page l. Immense headway has been made. Two"! hundred men and, s.ome steam shovels have worked wonders' .. Old Settler Are Amazed. In East Gary It. is told that interur.ban limlteds -will be flying through the place to Broadway . by ' ninety days. And, as the route lacks any curves and detours the center of East-Gary will be ten minutes from Broadway." Those of the old Inhabitants think. that a new era Is surely upon them. They never dreamed that the day was coming that ten minutes would bring them to a metropolitan thoroughfare. This is to be because of two reasons. First, the coming of Gary, has brought a big busy city street near East Gary and the air line interurban is to .bring them together. So, this is1 a case meeting half ways, the wealth of the steel trust brings a city at the edge of the East Gary farms and the farmers get the distance shortened by the trolley. . A Ntw Tow Hall Building. .Among, other things East Gary is building a handsome town hall that will cost $6,000 when it is done. Besides this it has recently taken -er the management of Its own schools. Other municipal improvements-are being talkedof, too. ' The Gary real estate men are among East. Gary's biggest boosters. Several of them attracted by the charming lay of the land have optioned a lot of broad acres and when they take a Garyite down to, subdivisions that have meadows, rolling hills, woods, gravel roads and the whole'picture topped oT by the winding Little Calumet, for here it is its prettiest, they have no trouble In signing up purchasers. A suburban home with an acre or two and a trolley line to take you to work is a great In ducement and the one and two-acre agents are doing a good business as a result .

" " " Of A JJTt A X T TTR'RS 1,000 TONS DAILY fContlnuKrt from Page l.J of the Hammond Business Men's association with the Commercial clubs of Indiana Harbor and East Chicago and of Whiting, relative to the intention of the Standard Oil company locating on the canal, and the Immense amount of shipping that would be done on th$ j canal for this one IndTlstry alone. It came out incidentally that in adiitlon ti the shipping in oil and other products of the-Standard, the coal ship ments would ; be enormous, the plant using daily over 1.000 tons. of coal.", Capt. Comfort was amazed at wnat Mr. Parks told him and said as much.. The captain in his rounds also vlsitel W. C. Dickey or the Ward Dickey Steel company and ' Mr.- Dickey told him of his favorite hobby, that of constructing a canal from iJike Michigan to the Ohio, a suggestion that seemed to make considerable of an , impression on the mind of the visitor. Captain Comfort asked Mr. Dickey to make uo a report of the needs of the region -as far as the waterways were concerned .and to cmbody his suggestion relative to tho canal to the Ohio river. In his report, There seems no doubt that Capt. Comfort's report to bis superior officers will be favorable to the proposed project of dredging the Calumet river. LETTER FROM MRS.
