Two Police Captains Brought Into Limelight by Inquiry

Everybody in Gary Is waiting: to s the fireworks-promised for the-council meeting tonight but -whether Alderman Castleman will manage to set off his pyrotechnic display, remains to be seen. To Aoruse Banker As Briber f Cutlrman and his gang promise as i curtain rlser'the'aecusation of bribory against a" Broadway banker "and the presentation of pwofs of : the 1 same The allegations' that Castleman has been soouting about is that-' h has "discovered" that the banker, bribed a councilman or two to vote for the high liquor license which is now in force. Primarily the meeting, which Is to be called at eight o'lock, Is . for the purpose of repealing the 1500 high liquor license ordinance. - The ordinance may get to Its second reading but the opposition ran be depended upon to move for an adjournment before the curtain rises on any of the spectacular work. Brewery Gang Seeks Control.

If the wishes of the brewery gangj is carried out and the low license rate! is restored it Is feared that Gary will !

return to its old condition of vile grog shops. When the licenses were low the breweries brought scores of scoundrels to Gary and set them up into business. Many of the saloonkepers were men who had been driven from ether cities but the mere fact that Gary was an "easy mark" Induced the brewers to flood the city with the liquor shops. If Castleman and his gang succeed in repealing the high license ordinance Clary will return to its old police record condition. Since the -passage of the present ordinance many of the low class of saloons have been wiped out.

he summoned help. The news of the asphyxiation spread like wild fire in Robertsdale and in a short time half of the population was

at the litnle home, hoping against hope

that the physicians would be successful. The ofllce of the Northern Indiana Gas and ISlectrlc company, which furn

ished the illuminating gas was notified.

and workmen were sent to the place

at once. It was apparent that the escaping gas was due to a break in the pipe, "but the break was not definitely located at first. The first report was that a pipe-had burstsd in a wall, but another one which seemed to be born out by more facts was that the service pipe had hurstei in the alley and that because of the frosen ground the escaping gas had followed the pipe on the outside until It reached the top of the ground, Junt under the bedroom. From here it is thought that the gas found it way into the bed room. The fineral arrangements have not yet ben made. WERE POPl I,AR IX ROBERTSDALE.

Both Miss-Seliger and Miss Mills

were very popular in Robertsdale. They were inseparable as companions.

They worked together, kept house together and lived together. ..-They had made extensive arrangements to enter

tain their girl friends at their bachelor quarters this .evrnig and yesterday

they looked forward to a pleasant

evenig's entertainment. ,

Miss Pel iger's parents live In East

Side in South Chicago, the father, being

employed in Whiting. Mas Mills has a married sister in Robertsdale who Is

Mrs. l Buehl.. Mr. Buehl Is employed as a machinist in the Glucose plant. The two ! girls have conducted the little store in Robertsdale for nearly two years and proved to be good business women. A machine a invention known as a pulmotor used recently in a number of cases in Chicago with good success wonld probably have saved the life of.the girls, had it been possible

have one on the scene of the acci

dent. ! PULMOTOR PROVES SI CCESS. The pulmotor owned by the Commonwealth Edison company consists of a tank of oxygen under 3,000 pounds pressure to the square inch. A valve reduces the pressure two pounds to the square Inch. The gas operates the valve and pump. When In use the pulmotor induces artificial respiration whether the subject is alive or dead, except that oxygen instead of air is Introduced into the lungs. The disadvantage in the .use of oxygen Is that It sometimes produces irritation which the air the lungs are

accustomed to breathe does not. Also It cannot be prolonged in application. Three persons' wly had been , overcome by illuminating gas were resuscitated early Wednesday morning by means of the pulmotor.- They were Nathan Robowskl, 25 years old, 182S West Division street; Mrs. Hose Robowskl, 25 years old, and Dennle Riftskl, 22 years old, a boarder in the house.

. . THE WHITE SISTER. "The White Sister" is a play to which you may take your sweetheart, your wife or your daughter, because it is as sweet and wholesome as an Easter lily. And it has tho red-blooded, romanticism that appeals to men as well as- to womanhood. It Is the love story of a young Italian officer and the woman who has taken the garb - of a Dominican nun, because she- believes

him to have been killed in battle. There is an absorbing struggle between human passion and spiritual duty. The story is beautifully told by F. Marlon Crawford, who also wrote "The Eternal CHy" and "J,n the Palace of the King." It is equally appealing to every faiTn and creed. Catherine Countlss, in her second starring tour, under the direction of Stair & Hswvlin, will" appear "as "The White Sister" at the Hammond

theatre on next Sunday matinee and evening. She has the magnificent seenic production used by Viola Allen during her wonderful tour of the two-dollar houses last season, and a very powerful company. Including David Proctor, William Belfort. John Maurice Sullivan, Frederick Roberts, Isabel Sherman, Alice Adams and Anna Berger Prlcee; ' The reserved seats are now on
