START 5 Washington, March 5. The Indiana pre-conventlon campaign in the Interest f President Taft will be opened with meetings in two Indiana cities during the next week, and the fight will be pushed vigorously from that time on. The formal opening of the campaign will be at Evansville next Saturday night, and at Indianapolis next Monday night, according to an arrangement made here yesterday and approved by the president. Charles Nagel, secretary of commerce and labor, will sound the Taft keynote in Indiana. v He spent a considerable part of to day canceling engagements and shlftng his other work so as to be able to speak in Evansville Saturday night and pend the following two days in Indl ana, closing his tour with a Tomlihson hall speech at Indianapolis next Mon day night under the auspices of the newly-formed Taft organization of Ma rion county. The Evansville speech will probably be delivered in Evans hall, the largest meeting place in that city. ANOTHER GARY PIONEER GOES IN BANKRUPTCY Max Kirchman of Garv. Schedules $3,000 Liabilities in Court. Max Klrschman, one of the pioneer real estate men of Gary, became l bankrupt today. He scheduled llabill ties of $3,000 and assets of $481. At the time he went into bankruptcy Kirschman was connected with what is known as the Calumet Candy & Crack er Co. It is said that many of the original real estate men in Gary have either left the city or have failed and gone into some other business. There are however a number of established firm" who are doing well. Jacob Matt of Indiana Harbor went into bankruptcy. He scheduled liabili ties of $1,698 and assets of $600 which he claims as exempt. The cases of Lena Wltholm of East Chicago and Alex J. Flelschmann of Gary were clos ed without the election of a trustee Charles Surprise was elected trustee in the case of H. F. Meikle but U,V. Cravens, acting as the attorney for the creditors, will take active charge, of the case.

No. 23, near Tolleston yesterday afternoon and was instantly killed. Yuhas was on his way to his work artel was crossing the Seventeenth and Adams street crossing when he met his death. A tin plate employment check led to his Identity. Yuhas was about 36 years old and lived in South .Adams street. His remains were taken to Finerty's morgue. J. Sinnell and George Kinsel. the en gineer and conductor on the train, will appear at the Inquest. SCOUT MOVEMENT GAINSJEN HARBOR (Communicated.) The Boy Scout movement which started a year ago in Indiana Harbor is progressing rapidly. There are about fifty Boy Scouts ln the Harbor. Most of them being tenderfeet, there elng about twenty second-class scouts and about ten of them are ready to fake their flrst-class scout examination. These Scouts have a drum and bugle corps and about twenty-five of them are uniformed. The boys are under the supervision of Mr. C C. Hand and Rev. Day, who is the outdoor scoutmaster. Jack Johnstone Is assistant scoutmaster. The boys have made many hikes and have been in Chicago on parade before Sir Baden Powell. The Indiana Harbor Boy Scout council Is made up of several business men, but the boys want the backing of more business men. because then they can progress more rapidly. The boys have their headquarters at Stinson-Osmer's real estate orftce in the Barker building, and their meeting place at the Washington school gymnasium. The're is one troop of six patrols and another troop is being organized. Many people say down with the Boy Scouts, but the Twin Cities and Hammond say down with the street gamin. HARBOR MEN FORM FELLOWSHIP CLUB From the inspiration of the address given by MrfH. P. Moody of Chicago on Feb. 25 a few of the men of Indl (ana Harbor, under the leadership of Rev. A. J. Crooks, pastor of the United f Presbyterian church, met In the K. of ? P. hall on Sunday afternoon, March 3, ;at 3 o'clock for the purpose of form ing a Men's Fellowship organization to

HIGH LICENSE FOR AMATORIYJilUSEUMS Quack Doctors Also Get Booted Out of Steel City: With the passage ' of an ordinance last night making fees for ' museums of anatomy and kindred Institutions the city of Gary opened war upon itinerant quack doctors. The ordl-( nance will go into effect two weeks after lt nubiication. A weekly license of $500 is provided and the cityi clerk may issue no license for a period less than one week nor more than four weeks. Violation of this ordinance will entail a fine of $100 for each day a medical institution of this kind is operated without a li cense, t "The trouble with these here fel lows," said Alderman Castleman, is thet they tell the pe-puli that their ancestors had some kind of a disease which their ancestors never had and the pe-pull get fleeced out of their money. C.r.r.&G. RAILROAD TO EXPAND JOUET YARDS Drastic Re-Arrangement 6f Tracks and Installation of Facilities Planned. An entire re-arrangement of the Chicago, Milwaukee & Gary railroad yards, located Just south of East Washington street, will begin Just as soon as weather permits. To get the greatest efficiency in the handllhg of freight an eastbound yard and a westbound yard will be laid out. In the east yard three tracks Will be laid and in the west Ave tracks. Curves that are in the present yards will be eliminated. Greater efficiency Is Ihe keynote of the plans. A big water, tank will be erected, 'the coal chutes are - to be erected. Two long tracks with a capacityf sixty cars will be installed. Between sixty and one hundred men will be thrown onto the work by Roadmaster Gust Swanson and an effort made to complete all the track work within thirty days. Heretofore a great deal of time has been lost by sending the engines to the E.. J. & E. yards for water and coal. The new plans call for a concentration Of all facilities within the Chicago, Milwaukee & Gary yards. Joliet Herald. Up and Down in INDIANA MAKES FREAK OFFER. Samuel Geddes was born Feb. 39. He is the son of Frank Geddes, of Muncie. "On his 25th birthday anniversary," announced the child's grandfather, who came to look over the nine pounds of pink and white flesh. "I shall give him a check for $10,000." The family was elated until certain wise members sat themselves down in corners to think. Then they recalled that on the 25th anniversary of the child's birth he would be theoretically 100 years old, which fact, they believe, makes the grandfather's promise a "safe bet." TO CLOSE BISISESS HOUSES. The funeral of the late Francis I. Delbert, was held yesterday afternoon, the Rev. Mr. Averill of Fort Wayne and the Rev. Mr. Hamltlon of the -Peru Episcopal Church officiated. Mr. Deibert's long association with mercantile interests of Peru made him popular and prominent.
