The girl admitted to Chief Austgen that she saw the error of her ways lorg ago, but, that being friendless and helpless, she did not know which way to turn. She has neither father, mother nor sister nor brother living. An aunt who lives in a distant city Is not in a position to care for her. The girl is now 18 years old, although, owing to her weak, puny appearance, she does not look to be more, than 16 When found by Chief Austgen she was at first reticent about her antece dents, but, seeing that her record was known to him, and that instead of rebuffs and Insults she was treated with consideration and assured that she still had friends, she opened her heart to him and told him of the life she was forced to live because she was hungry and needed clothing. At first she said she was able to work, then when she lost her position she was unable to get another one, and being desperately in need of money, she decided to trade her misery for another life. When she found work again she tried to live de cently, but when she was let out again she decided that she would have to be come a street-walker. A friend or rel atlve might have advised her, but she had no relatives to speak of. and the so-called friends she had were not In terested In a girfs welfare. "The number of' girls who-are leading unhappy lives,, who are on the verge of ruin in the cities of Hammond, East Chicago and, Gary is greater than the average person, thinks, if we but had some organization which would In terest Itself in these girls." said Chief Austgen, "whose members would take it upon themselves to look up these girls, the life of many a one would be different from what'it will undoubtedly be in a year from now. The best thing, in my estimation, of course, would be a place of refuge for them, a place like the "Chicago Rest Cottage." It was fortunate for the girl of last Sunday that Mrs. Oranger took the kind inter est In her that she did. It will un doubtedly mean a new beginning for the girl." . Mrs. Granger thought, too, that there was room for a refuge home and ah organization in Lake county that would work mainly for the uplift of thc.se un fortunate girls. "As long as we have a chief of po lice like Mr. Austgen, and some of his men, who-take such a fittherly Interest in these poor girls, an organization could accomplish much. There surely appears to be much room for this kind of work." TWO MURDERS OCCUR IN GARY (Continued from page one.) church was the first one to notify the police of the woman's death. He call ed up headquarters on the nhone a Captain Newman responded to the call. He round toe woman -dead on the parlor . floor, there being finger marks about her throat. Steele told the captain that he was with the. woman and that he went ouside for hree minues

and that when he returned the discov

ered that a crime had been committed Later the negro was arrested and was charged with the crime. The Thompson girl had been living with David Jackson, who works in the teel plant. She was the mother of a small child. Minister Was Shot Also. Jackson told the police that he had warned his common law wife to not let the negro preacher into the house as he was a bad charcter. On November 9 Steele was shot through the abdomen by his wife Caroline Steele, a notorious colored wench In Gary's black helt. Tn mnt the wound would have been fatal but Steele recovered and his wife was then released. Phe went to Chicago. Slain In Cold Blood. The murder of Jack Johnson by Bob Gordon occured eight hours later. It Is said that the men were playing cards in a shack at Sixteenth avenue and Connecticut street A dispute aroe and in the quarrel that followed both ran outside. Gordon drew a pistol and shot 'Johnson through the head, killing him Instantly. The murdered then made his escape. Oscar Middleton, Charles Kirchendoli and Robert Young, were witnesses to the killing. Bad NfgroM Are Maay. Last fall the bad negroes of Gary of whom Chief Martin estimated that, there were upwards of 3,000 gave the police much trouble. There were several shooting and cutting affrays and numerous arrests of negroes for highway robbery "and housebreaking. The murders of John Brown and May Marshall, both colored, were gory events of last year. May Marshall's slayer, George Davis, was sentenced to be hanged but his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment by Governor Marshall. The chances are that the governor will have the opportunity of saving two more murderers from the gallows. REPEAL HIGH LICENSING v ORDINANCE (Continued from Pace 1.) cense ordinance and reduces the fees from $600 to $200. The other ordinance passed provides rules for the Impeachment of council members. It was. fathered by the re form aldermen but Castleman Judlcl ously Inserted an amendment which gives the mayor the power of appoint Ing the Investigating committee. The will thwart for the present any antlKnotts impeachment moves. Reform Element Jabbed In Neck. It didn't take long for the Knotts alderman to run a spear through the Impeachment rules ordinance fathered by Alderman Hess, Feuer and Rowley. As the rules were Intended to stand any three voters could file charges against a councilman, the council would name an Investigating commit tee and If the report of that committee was for trial the trial would be held forwlth and if charges sustained the member impeached. Jn case the mayor refused to pronounce the sentence of ouster the council could do It by a two-third's vote- . Alderman Castleman substituted a little clause which gives the mayor la. stead of the council the power of ap pointing the Investigating committee. With this "sterilizing clause attached the measure passed over the protests of Its framers. High IJcenere Knocked Lew. Early In the meeting Attorney Clarence Bretsch read the petition asking that the council repeal high license ordinance number 110. When It was placed upon Its final passage the vote stood five to four. Messrs. Rowley, Feuer, Bowser and Hess voting against it and Castleman, Gibson Slmlasko, Szymanskl, and Walsh (the first two being ex-saloonkeepers and the last two being saloonkeepers ) vot ing for it. The measure will serve to reduce license fees from $500 to the old figure of $300. It is not known whether Mayor KnOtts wil sign It and some lawyers contend that the council has no power to reduce license fees under the terms of the Proctor statute. A (24-m of Oratory. Castleman's opening speech on the liquor license repeal was a gem of screams, pathos and eloquence and is as follows: "I still say the same as I said I will still prove if necessary that this ordinance was passed by bribery."

present bribery charges but Mayor Knotts overruled him.

"I am ready," continued Castleman as he moved the spittoon nearer and took another chew of Battle Axe," to produce the evidence. When I am ready I will not have to go before the grand Jury. "I will say that any man who has a eat In this council, elected by the pe-pull, for the pe-pull and . of the pe-pull has the right to make the public any charges. I am here tonight with the evidence and " At this Juncture the statesman's language became so vulgar that nr record was made of it and Mayor Knotts made him cut, it out. Alderman Feuer made more objections and then Castleman quited down. KNOTTS WINS TIMESPRIMARY CConttnued from Page L) Hammond was second choice, though Congressman E. D. Crumpacker trailed In third by only two votes fewer than Becker. James E. Watson form er idol of Lake county politics was a close fourth while John B. Peterson of Crown Point who has often been mentioned as a possible compromise for governor was a close fifth. Over 1,500 votes were cast In the hIx days primary voting and although the con test was not as productive of results as Thb Times presidential primary. It is considered a remarkable showing In interest taken when so many votes are polled In such a balloting. Tho democrats outnumbered the republicans, there being 876 democratic votes cast and 726 republican. This In itself Indicates the independence of the yoking trend and shows that The Times TIMES Bl'BEAV, t AT STATE CAPITAL. I Indianapolis. Ind., Feb. 20. Samuel M. Ralston and Congressman John W. ' Boehne and their respective managers ' are Btlll at the guessing trick, and each; side is giving out claims to practically i everything n site. Yesterday the Ral-; ston camp gave out a statement that twenty-five counties had elected 481 delegates to the state convention and that 343 of these were for Ralston, 102 for Boehne and thirty-six doubtful. , The statement went on to say: "We have never based any claim on ' Indorsements of Ralston by county committees. Our estimates are based on actual Instructions and on delegates directly elected for Ralston men who went before the conventions as avowed Ralston candidates. Delegates known as unfavorable to Ralston, and those Instructed for Boehne we have credited to Boehne, or the opposing column. Ua-: instructed delegates who were elected without any expressed choice for gov-: ernor, for example, in counties having candidates for other offices on the state : ticket, we have classified as doubtful, though we are aware that the majority of them are favorable to Ralston and will vote for him in the convention. j "The opposition from the outset of the campaign has maintained the policy of claiming all, er nearly all, delegates not Instructed for Ralston. In Hamilton county, because one township did not Instruct for Ralston, the opposition press bureau was kept busy for a week proclaiming all over the state that Boehne had captured a township in Ralston's district, in the face of the published signed statement of the three delegates of that township to the effect that they would vote and work for the nomination of Ralston. "If we adopted the same tactics we would have to claim for Ralston all the delegates so far elected except about sixty-three Instructed for Boehne in Vanderburg and Gibson couhtles and a few scattering instructed delegates throughout the state. But we are claiming only what we can actually rely on. "Nine counties have so far Instructed solid delegations for Ralston, three of which are In the southern part of the state Martin, Perry and Switzerlandyet the newspaper organ of Mr. Boehne failed to publish this news. It will be recalled that only a week ago the managers were claiming Perry because of its contiguity to the Evansville district. "On the other hand, not one county outslde'of the first district has elected an instructed or unlhstructed solid delegation. While Ralston has carried the bulk of the delegates from the large counties of Allen, St. Joseph and Vigo, it is the agricultural counties that have given him his great deal over his opponent. It is the rural counties that have chosen solid delegations for Ralston. Lake County Title

I can state positively that, Ralston has carried H or a majority of the delegates elected so far In every county but three." When the Ralston statement was shown to the Boehne managers they authorised the publication of the following: "Our opponents do not know the number of counties in Indiana that have selected delegates to the state' convention up to -this time, neither do they know how many delegates have been chosen up to now. Judging from the statement made by them. The statement Is so full of Inaccuracies it Is ridiculous and the claims made . are Just as absurd as the other Incorrect assertions. For instance, ihey say twenty-five counties have selected delegates up until today, when the facts are that twenty-six counties have made their selections. They say that 481 delegates have been, chosen. The irutn is tnat &os-aeigates nave been named. . The Ralston managers have overlooked twenty-seven delegates somewhere who will vote la the coming convention. "The twenty-six counties selecting delegates so far have chosen 212 who are favorable to the nomination of Mr. Boehne, and we believe that 272 delegates have been named who are favorable to Mr. Ralston, while three are for Lieutenant Governor Hall, and twentyone are put down In a column by themselves as unknown.
