Developments in Dynamite Inquiry in Western City.
Fact becomes public that Eugene A. Clancy, indicted for conspiracy, made a confession that led to five indictments. Confession involves other labor lenders and likely will lead to at least five more indictments soon. Confession gives information to Federal authorities that will be of great value to the Indianapolis investigation.

SCHOOLS RESUME AFTER HOLIDAYS
(Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Jan. 2. The Christinas holidays for public, and parochial schools" ended with the advent of the new yeal. and today saw pupils and teachers at their desks ready to resume their work. It has been customary in the past to observe as a holiday the day following New Year's day, 5n order to give those who leave town for New Year's an opportunity to get home. This year the board of education dispensed with this
extra holiday and it was given out to teachers and pupils that they would
be expected to be on hand Jan. 2. .
The enrollment seems about normal
for the season, fo far as heard from
but ' Superintendent E. N. Canine had
attention next fell on the little chill which was hejpless in its effrts to ex tinguish the flames which were leaping from his clothes into its face. Its little hands were frightfully burned. Mr. Callner lost no time. He, caught the girl up in his arms and sinothered the flames, by pressing the child to hi.j bosom. 1 .. . r Fnral On Monday. By this time assistance had arrived and the burning clothes were removed
from' the woman and she was put to bed. The three- doctors of the town
promptly responded to the call and worked heroically with the injurej
woman. It wa: found that she was practically roasted alive. , Over fourfifths of the surface of her body being burned. Her lower extremities were burnsd to her shoe tops and her face was charred, while her hair was nearly all burned off her head. She suffered great agony until 10 o'clock at night, when death relieved her of her awful suffering. "While the baby was severely burned it will not prove fatal. ilr. and Mrs. Ptratton are young people and were married about four years ago. The funeral was held on New Year's day. No damage to the building resulted, the firemen having quickly extinguished the flames.

Great interest to Lake County peopleIs that the management of the Pennsylvania lines announced that the two roads that have been operated under this system will be separated Monday. The word came in the form of circulars dividing the passenger departments of the. Fort Wayne and Panhandle routes, and placing each road under separate heads. W .W. Richardson who has been as
sistant general passenger agent for the
merged Panhandle and . Fort Wayne routes will be general passenger agent
of the Fort Wayne route alone, , which
will be known hereafter as the North
western system, and J. M. Chesborough,
now general passenger agent of both roads will be general passenger agent
of the Panhandle only. The Fort Wayne will use its corporate name, the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne and Chicago
