"000,000 stock to be put out against them. v At its big refinery at Whiting, Ind., near Chicago, the largest refinery in the interior of the country, and a smaller refinery at Sugar Creek, Mo., it treats oil from the mid-continental fields. Its principal marketing terfi tory has been through Illinois and Indiana and a large section south of the Ohio and east of the Mississippi. It owns no, pipe lines. Earnings of tire Indiana company are believed to have been running between f 10.000, 000 and $11,000,000 a year for some time past. Officers refuse to give any information on this point. In 1906, the last year for which. actual figures are available, net earnings amounted to, $10,500,000. If the company can maintain its former share of the business in its territory, where it has less competition from other former subsidiaries of the Standard than those companies operating nearer the seaboard and in the ex port business, it should . continue to ttock-

holders. That would amount to 33 per cent on the $30,000,000 new capital.

WOMAN

TRAPS TOGGERY THIEVES Desperate because leap year had brought no fair maidens to woo and win them, four men of Indiana Harbor determined that something must be done In order to improve their appearnce to an extent that would find them favor in the eyes of the weaker sex. They accordingly went yesterday noon in a body to the place occupied as temporary quarters by Julius Nassau's Men's Toggery at Grapevine and Michi gan avenue and started in to - help themselves to neckties, fancy socks, handkerchiefe with borders to match, and other high-class haberdashery pleasing to look upon.' The eagle eye of one Mrs. Bun da, of 136th and Cedar street, wno was In the store at the time, discovered what tbe quartet were at, and she accordingly notified' the proprietor as quietly as possible, but not so quietly that two of the men fild not suspect here, and left the place with their booty. The remaining wo were so intent upon acquiring a pair of pink pajamas, and a Ted necktie, that they failed to notice that they were being spied upon, and Mr. Nassau succeded in locking the door after' having quietly let Mrs. Bunda out with instructions to notify the police of his quarryMrs. Bunda did her work so well that in less time than it takes to tell it, the arm of the law was present in the per son of officer Charles Rachjanes, who seized upon the culprits and took them to the station. The men gave their names as John Paluzie. 3715 Cedar street and Mike Luklsch, 3528 Parian avenue. The prisoners were brought to East Chicago where their bonds were fixed at 500 each. They wera unable te turn iah bail and their cases will come te trial today in the city court. . The police expect to round up the other two men shortly, the exat na ture of whose stealing has not yet come to light, although Mr. Nassau is sure they got more than their companions who were arrested. RIDGE ROAD IS INCOflVEtllEIICED Refusal of the Gary and Southern Traction company and the Gary and Interurban railway company to come to any agreement over certain -traction problems is causing Inconvenience. Ia addition to this the poor service afford' ed by the former line is the cause of many protests. Ctty May Forcf Aettoa. Although the Gary and Interurban's franchise states that it mast accept and give transfers to other lines so far it has made no move in this direction and in the meantime those living below the Little Calumet river must pay a tencent fare to reach the steel mills. A nickel fare was promised and eventually this will be had. Several efforts have been made to have the two companies get together on the single fare proposition but so far no headway has been gained. It is suggested that the board of works take a hand in the mlxup. Has A "Country" Schedule. On top of, these troubles Is the queer operating schedule of the Gary and Southern between Lottavllle and Catumet bridge. Cars do not begin te operate until half past seven o'clock In the morning -too late to be of any use to the steel workers who must walk tn Calumet bridge before they reach the Gary & Interurban's southern terminus. Cars cease running at five o'clock id the evening too late for those return Ing from work. It ls said that if the Gary and Southern would add an extra train crew that all of the present troubles as far as schedules are concerned would be eliminated. As it ls the new street car line Is not of much use to anyone. STABBING N Steve Enich, 21 years old, known the police as one of Gary's "bad men" is at thu General hospital where he is said to be dying from several knift wounds received at the hands of unknown persons last night. It is believed that Enich will die some time today IS Will Money Help You? If So, Call or Write Ua. We' will loan you.

Enich, the police say has stabbed at least four men during the past year and has frequently attacked Gary and Interurban employes. One of them he wounded so badly that it was necessary to keep his victim in the hospital for four months. Shortly after eleven o'clock last night the police were called to 1730 Massachusetts street where they found Enich bleeding from knife wounds abput the chest and abdomen. His assailants had escaped but a dragnet was immediately put out and it is expected that some

arrests will be made during the day. As yet the police have not learned how Enich came to be stabbed but it is believed that' he attacked other men and that they "got" . him before he got" them. STEEL PRICES CONTINUE EASY Mills Lacking1 Orders Axe 'Aggressive Competitors. Renorts from all markets agree that prices In a nutnber of finished lines of' steel are lower, particularly In plates, structural shapes, bars and sheets, according to the Iron Age. There is no large inflow of new orders, but some mills, not well supplied with specifica tions, are more aggressive. No. 28 black sheets have declined to $1.85 and in a few cases $1.80 has been done. In structural work competition ap pears at intervals with new sharpness. Volume is not seriously complained of. In the last week probably 35,000 tons have been closed. Railroad contracts include 5,000 tons for the Santa Fe, 2,400 tons for the Spokane, Portland & Seattle, 3,000 tons for the New York Subway and 1,500 tons for the Pennsylvania lines west. At Philadelphia three buildings Just let, including the Bellevue-Stratford addition and the stock exchange, call for about 5,500 tons. It Is the prospect that considerable rail buying is ahead, particularly for western and southwestern lines. Ths Wabash receivers have asked for bids on 3,500 cars and 25,000 tons of rails, The International Great Northern is inquiring for 15,000 tons. In girder rails a 4,000-ton Inquiry from, the Chicago City Railways is pending. Export business -ls up, including 20,000 tons for Australia. Southern pig iron producers find the firmer position they have taken on prices re-enforced by a reduction of 19,000 tons in Alabama stocks in January. The northern foundry iron market Is dominated by the expectation of buyers that with lower ore prlcos there will be a further recession'in pig iron. At Pittsburg a recent purchase of 10.000 to 12,000 tolns ls reported at slightly under $12.25 at furnace. STORY HOUR FOR CHILDREN A "story hour" for the children has been instituted at the East Chicago public library and on Saturday, morning the little people are invited to hear some tales which " it Is expected will both interest and instruct them. The younger children are asked to come at 18 and the older girls and boys'at 10:45. The first set include the children from first to fourth grades. Inclusive, and the second lot the youngsters in grades VALUABLE CORN A deal was completed yesterday whereby the First National bank of East Chicago has become the owner of the Treat-Emery property at the northeast corner of Forsythe and Chicago avenue, where the Emery building now stands. It is the intention of the bank people to eventually tear down the present structure and re-build, erecting In its stead a substantial business block, occupying the corner with the bank. This cannot be, however, at least for a year and a half, as G. Morrelli has a lease on the corner whicTi runs for eighteen months longer. It is not certain that the block will be torn down at the expiration of the Morrelli lease, but it is probable. The property has a frontage of 75 feet on Chicago avenue and 150 feet on Forsyth avenue. The price was approximately f0,000. This particular corner is regarded by real estate men as the best corner In Lake county, owing to the fact that It is the 'transfer point for so many street railway lines, including two branches of the Hammond, Whiting & East Chicago street railway and two branches of the South Shore, to say nothing of all but backing up against the rights of way of the Wabash and

Lake County Title & Guaranty Co.
