An interesting point In the power of a special Judge was raised in the superior court this afternoon when the condemnation proceedings of the South Shore against Paul Rose and other Hammond property owners was before the court. Attorney McAleer of Hammond objected to the cas going to trial before Judge Gallagher of the circuit court, who is exchanging benches for a few days with Judge Tuthlll. Whether the case will finally go to
J trial before the special Judge- remains
to be seen. The fight is being made by the South Shore on the ground that the appraisement on the land in ques
tion is too high.
The Hammond lawyer contended that
when a special Judge is appointed hia power rests only as to a particular case, and that his appointment is not general. In the superior court, however, as well as in many other courts special Judges have been given several appointments and they have sat in numerous' cases. Just as is being done here at this time. It Is understood that some of the property owners In the Hammond case fear that the special Judge here is the result of a frame-up. Michigan CityNews, i
. Start Damage Suit. Attorneys Ballard &. Stonton have started a suit against the Illinois Steel company for $50,000 damages on account of the injuries to Stephen Shekick, which occurred in the Gary plant of that company. It is alleged in the complaint that the plaintiff was working In the plant of the Indiana Steel companyanfl that another worklngman who was working above him dropped a piece of sted on his head.
The result was that he was T:nocke3
unconscious and received injuries from which paralysis of the muscles of locomotion resulted. He also is declared to have lost the'power of speech and
of hearing.

SARAC CASE MAY RESULT III GOOD
Charges Against Constable BoiledjDown Until They Are Technical.
The court has taken under advisement the impeachment, proceedings against Lazar Sarac, the Indiana Harbor constable, which were concluded in Judge Virgil S. Ileiter's court yesterday. It is said that about the only testimony that was brought out against Sarac was that following his election to office he did compel his deputies to dividde their fees with him. There was also some evidence to the effect that he refused to issue warrants in some cases. While there were a large number of witnesses subpoenaed it is said that only a small percentage of them really testified.. The charges against Sarac have been boiled down until now they are merely
a lot of technical offenses. Or rather
they are offenses which may be pun
ished by impeachment, but of which the average constable is frequently guilty. It may be that the court will de
cide that if Sarac is guilty that an example should be made of him so that
other constables in the township will show more of an inclination to act
strictly within the limits of the law.
Certain abuses have grown up in the
constable System that are common and the effect of the Sarac trial may be to put a stop to these practices.
That the United States flag will not be tolerated as the emblem of snob
bery in the presence of free-born in
telligent American citizens who are moved by the democratic spirit of this country was recently demonstrated on board ship cn the Atlantic ocean in an
episode in which a Hammond boy, Ed
ward Boney, participated.
Edward Boney and a number of
friends were passengers on the steam
ship Kronland, on their way to Inns
bruck, Austria, where they intend to complete their theological studies in preparation for the priest hoood. One night after the ship had been out several days, arrangements were made for a brilliant ball for the pleasure of the
first cabin passengers. The American
colors were used in profusion, and the
American students felt themselves greatly honored to see this display of respect, but they changed their minds
when they saw the decorater brjng
forth a big United States flag and hang
it as a curtain in order to protect the
first-class passengers against the gazes
of the second-class passengers. The
idea of using Old Glory, which should stand for equality, as the curtain for
snobbery did not appeal to the Ameri
can students. One of them got up and made a fiery speech, denouncing the misuse of the American colors. Then
placing themselves before the. flag they
sang the national hymns, America and
the Star Spangled Banner. Having carried out this part of their im
promptu program, they withdrew for a council of wac, They knew they had a
friend in Major E. E. Wlsslow, who was
a passenger on the ship, and they de
cided to address a resolution through
him to the ship authorities. Their res
olution read as follows:
Gain Their Point. "The citizens of second class assem
bled realizing full well that the Ameri
can flag is no respector of persons or
classes, ami fearing lest it be desecrat
ed when used as it now is; namely, to
separate the rich from the less rich
ask you .as a representative of our country to present our grievances to the ship authorities of this ship; that the American flag was never intended as a distlnguisher between1 the rich and
poor."

Then too as a storage yard It Is most
nconvenlently located, because of lack
f railroad facilities.
"Something should be done with the
vacant piece of property," sa.ld Mayor
malley to the council. "It is an eye
sore to the community as it is now. It has been suggested that the ground be
used for a city market and it seems well adapted to give this idea a trial.
The alley on the south of It and the
treet on the north of it,- would afford
accss to the wagons from both sides."
John L. phode member of the board t public works explained to the coun
cil that a storage yard 1 with track facilities is needed. He said the board
had looked at a piece of land west Hohman street opposite the Simplex but that the owners wanted $12,000 a sum
which he considered to much. The strip has a Hohman street frontage of about
eventy feet, and runs to a triangular
point. It is seven hundrer feet long and is bounded by two Belt railroads.
One Ordinance Rejected. Council John Kane voted against a
resolution which provided that the mayor and board of public works should
ake steps to see for what figure the
land can be purchased. John Kane -ot-
ed against the resolution on the ground,
hat the city had property on the Erie
rlalroad adjoining the fire department grounds of station No. 4, and that this
hould be used instead of buying new-
grounds.
The council appropriated the sum of
$2,000 and $1,000 respectively for street cleaning and street repairing.
On the recommendation of the li
cense committee, the council rejected
he proposed ordinane licensing non
resident wagon drivers and delivery men. on the ground that it is unlawful to disriminate between local and for
eign dealers, and that such an ordinance
would interfere with the interstate
commerce lam'. The ordinance was
mainly Intended to protect the locai bakers, butchers and various other dealers.
The ordinance making unlawful to
dump coal from railroad cars onto the
ground without putting it under a roof
went to Its third reading and was
adopted. Councilman Whltaker and taggers voted against "' ""the ordinance.
The city attorney was Instructed to draw up an ordinance licensing sign
hangers and sign painters.
Asked to Help Stricken City. A communication was received from
the city administration of Black River Falls, Wis. the city which was partially
destroyed by a broken dam flood on the
sixth of this month. The letter asked for a donation to help the stricken city and while the local council stood ready
to appropriate a hundred dollars, the
Indiana law does not allow appropria
tions of this kind.

Bowling Schedule Arranged.
.me memDers or tne Hammond Bowling association and the captains of each team met in the office of President E. G. Sproat Monday night to arrange a new schedule for the coming bowling tournament. A schedule had been arranged, but it was found necessary to arrange a new one, as two teams which were to have rolled dropped out of the league, and so the schedule was arranged for six teams. The games which were rolled a week ago last night were thrown out of the schedule and will not count, as agreed by all present at the meeting. It will also be necessary to call another meeting to arrange the prizes for six teams instead of eight. The captains of each team will arrange this and the meeting has been called for next Monday night at E. G. Sproat's office. The teams that will roll in , the league are: Plantistas, Spartans, E. B. A.'s, Monnetts. Griffiths and Infants. The first games will be rolled Thursday night, Oct. 20, at Cox & Co.'s alleys.
