REPORT READY FOR ENGINEERS (Continued from Paxe i.) any harbor in Indiana open for selection) is accessible from three belt line railroads, while the Chicago harbor Is accessible from only one. It is related in the report that there are 63 industries in Indiana that would be benefited by such waterway development. The In-and-out tonnage of the region In Indiana is 11,500,000 tons annually. The congested condition of the Chicago belt systems is pointed out. It is stated that the Indiana Harbor Felt railroad, which encircles the entire Chicago shipping district from Franklin Park, 111., to Dune Park, Ind., is best suited to take care of the traffic at the present time and is sufficient to take care of the future needs of the locality lor the reason that there Is room that there is room to four-track the entlr oad. Plan Far Ahead. But tht;rport goes farther and says that 100 years from now when the growth and development of the Chicago industrial district has reached the point when even the Indiana Harbor Belt railroad is congested with traffic it points out that th Indiana location for terminal harbor facilities will still be available to that extreme outer belt line, the Elgin. Joliet & Eastern railroad, which extends from Waukegan on the north to Torter on the east. The fact Is pointed out that the Industries along the Calumet river from the forks in Illinois to the Indiana Harbor canal handled 1.300.000 tons of freight in 1911. Those to the river, but not having dockage along it. handled 1.480,000 tons of freight additionally, and those located from one-quarter to two miles from the river and canal handled 735,000 tons of freight, making over two and a half millions of tons of freight that were handled in the Indiana Calumet district alone last year. Knorma Tonnage. The fact is pointed oH that much traffic would originate on the stream itself and that the new industries which have already located in this locality would greatly increase these fig

ures. Figures showing that the Indiana Harbor canal In its present uncompleted state handled 500,000 tons of freight in 19U and that the Indications are that this figure will be doubled In tKe ensuing year. It is stated that 150 ves-

i sels will be required to handle this

freight in the present year. The purchase of a large amount of dockage by the Standard Oil company along the west branch of the canal was cited to the engineers in the report. The board of engineers is Informed that deeds to all of the land necessary for canal purposes have been accepted by the U'nlted States government, under the approval of the attorney genera!. The fact that Lake Michigan and the Grand Calumet river have been connected was pointed out. Canal Improvement. ' - - The Improvements made on the canal by private corporations have been enumerated by the committee as follows. From Lake Michigan to the branches of the Indiana Harbor canal, 7,330 feet of canal have been constructed 200 feet wide and 20 feet deep. The railroads have built six bascule bridges over this section of the canal. The west branch of the canal has

been dug to a width of 120 feet and 15

feet deep. For a distance of a half of a mile south of the forks of the canal a channel 200 feet wide and IS feet deep has been dug. From thence to the Calumet river the canal has been dug to a width of 100 feet and to a depth of 15 feet. It is estimated that 200,000 tons of freight will originate on the west branch of the canal as a result of the Standard Oil company's activities. The report states that the city of Hammond owns a large amount of frontage on the Calumet river that will be suitable for municipal dockage and that the cities of East Chicago and Indiana Harbor have the option to purchase necesary dockage.

YOU BE GOOD? Gary Bribery Lawyer Fails to Go as Delegate to National Convention.

Indianapolis, Ind., March 23. Sam Parker, of South Bend, took a sudden notion that he would like to go to Baltimore as a national delegate, and when Mayor Tom Knotts. of Gary, heard about it the Gary mayor went straight up. The mayor pulled his friend Bill Cain out of a meeting of lay delegates In a room on the third floor back at the Denlson and got busy. Mayor Goets will take Mr. Parker's place on the delegation. You see Sam Parker Is the special attorney appointed by Governor Marshall to assist In the prosecution of Mayor Knotts and other Gary officials charged with taking bribes.

REVIVAL JfclEETINGS. The usual large audience was in attendance at the revival meeting last night. Dr. Briggs of Valparaiso offered prayer. The spirited song service, led by ,Prof. Rice, prepared the congregation for the evangelist's sermon on that great question, "What Then Khali I Do with Jesus, tvho is Called Christ?" Pilate and his great opportunity was portrayed by Mr. McDonald in vivid words. The helps he had toward a favorable decision and the one thing fear of public rebuke which which outweighed al were presented so that 'Pilate and his judgment hall were burned into the Imagination of the audience. The speaker declared, "Had Pilate washed his heart Instead of his hands that day how differently he would stand before the world. Next to Judas he stands as the most repudiated man in history." The sermon brought people t0 face the fact that they too make some decisions concerning the Christ of the Bible and of history). If he is the son of God that decision Is of tremendous and eternal consequence. At the call for consecration four persons went forward; much conversation takes place in the congregation concerning personal religious life. Announcement was made for a boys" and girls' meeting to be held on Saturday afternoon, at 3 o'clock. The expectation Is that this will be the most enthusiastic and well attended meeting of all the series. The services for Saturday night and Sunday are looked forward to as the climax of a very helpful revival season and that these closing days will bring the greatest of all the results. Prof. Rice is absent from the city today, but will be at his post tonight. j Death of J. H. La Fave. The sad news of the death of J. H. La Fave, fathr of Mrs. F. II. Fox, 23 Mason street, was received here, from Defiance. O., this morning, the telegram stating that he died following an illness of only about an hour. The remains will be brought here for burial tomorrow afternoon and will be taken to the home of his daughter, Mrs. F. II. Fox, 2'i Mason street. Although not definite the funeral will be held from the residence Sunday. The Rev. Swltzer will officiate and interment will occur at Oak Hill cemetery. Mr. I. Fave , was well known in Hammond, having made a number of visits with his daughter. Only yesterday did Mrs. Fox receive a letter from him to the effect that he would visit hre In a short time. Although he has not been in the best of health since a recent Illness, he was able to be up and around and never complained.

CLYDE HUNTER TO PRESIDE AT MEETING

I The chances are that Clyde Hunter jwil preside at the Gary republican contention tomorrow night at South Side I Turner hall to name eight delegates to attend the district convention at Hammond to name two national delegates. Yesterday there was some talk that

Vice County Chairman Peter Lamb might preside. If Hunter presides it is said that his holding down the chair will be acceptable to both the Taft and Roosevelt men. There will be no lack of harmony at the convention as the delegation will be evenly split, four and four. .

C. Cassity, cornetlst, and Miss Goldie Rodman, pianist and personal worker. Big things are planned, and big re

sults are anticipated. It is expected that a capacity audience will be out from the start. There .will be a program of special music at each and every service. Hundreds of new song books have been provided so that every one may participate In the singing. With the record that the Christian church has in Hammond for making good in Its public and special enterprises, the revival promises to be one of its successes.
