Matinee Wednesday 3 P. M., Admission 10c L 3 EXPECT SOMETHING TO DROP The peaceful election proceeding in West Hammond today is construed by many of the thoughtful voters in the city as a calm before the storm for today rumors were afloat that "something will drop" tomorrow. The "something" Is said to be a move by the old gang manipulated from Chicago to again thwart the wishes of the- voters, by keeping the old village board in office another year, despite the election of new officers today. Just vhat steps If any the gang Intends taking remains to be seen, but It Is hardly thought that the victors will be able to take their1 office without some last opposition from the gang which is dying hard. Switchman Arrested. Betram-Kibling, 7648 Engleton ave nue, Chicago, employed on the Monon railroad as a switchman, was arrested last night about 9 o'clock by Officers ; Buhde and Elnsele at the Monon, yards on a charge of blocking the Fayette and Russell sreet crossings. He gave bond for his trial when his case will come up before Judge Barnett Saturday morning, April 20. at 9 o'clock. A number of calls came into the police station lat night, among them Mrs. Knoerzer, who was held for nearly twenty minutes at the Russell street crossing. Other vehicles and pedestrians were unable to get across on Fayette street. "We have warned the railroads and railroad men, time and time again about blocking railroad crossings." said Chief Austgen this horning, "and as that don't do any good we will make arrests and prosecutions will follow. There Isn't a day goes "by unless we are notified regarding this crossing blocking, and we must put a stop to it. Tf the people will only give Us the time they are held at these" crossings and the number of the caboose we will see that it is stopped."
