B. & 0. EMPLOYES 111 DEADLY COMBAT

As a result of a fued. lasting nearly a year between two rival railroad

men, Jake Sucharski of East Side was seriously, and maybe fatally, injured at the B. & O. yards Saturday night, when Erwin M. Scarbraugh struck him

over the head with a large bolt in self-defense, resulting in a fracture of the skull. . Sucharski was picked up in a semiconscious condition and removed to the South Chicago hospital, where he 19 reported In- a critical condition, his changes of living being uncertain at this hour. Following the vicious assault In which Sucharski intended doing bodily harm. Scarbrough went to his home at 9016 ' Commercial avenue, where he was placed under arrest by the South Chicago police. The Hammond police were then notifleJ of his arrest, and Scarbaugh was brought

here by Bune and Einsele. where he will be held pending the outcome of the Injured man's condition. Both B. A O. Employw. Both men are employed at the B. & O. yards at Roby, Scarbaugh holding the position as a car Inspector and Sucharski as a car oiler. Why Sucharski disliked Scarbaugh is not known, but since last Winter, when the fued started, Sucharsi has threatened the life of Scarbaugh a number of times.

Scarbaugh states that Sucharski was Jealous of his position and seemingly wanted to put him out of the way, as one cold night last winter Sucharski attempted to assault him, but luckily he made his get-away without any trouble. . Since that night Sucharski has toll other employes that he was going to "get that car inspector" and every night since then Scarbaugh has avoid

ed meeting him. Saturday night about

10 - o'clock, as Scarbaugh was coming out of the inspector's office he saw Sucharski coming towards him with his hand behind his back. Knowing that there would be trouble, Scarbraugh picked up a large bolt and stepped out of the doorway. Upon doing this Sucharski made a plunge at the car inspector, who in turn swung at Sucharski with the bolt, felling him to the ground. The injured man was then removed to the South Chicago hospital and Scarbraugh later went to his home, where he was placed under arrest. Sucharski's story has not been heard as he has been unable to say very little. The police have the case in their hands and are making an investigation of both sides of the quarrel.

The corner stone laying ceremonies began with the arrival of the priests at the new church building. Mgr. Hn r in his address reviewed the growth of the Catholic church in this, country, and lauded St. Joseph's congregation for having the spirit which makes the new church possible. As part of the ceremony, Mitr. Heer made the sign of the cross on the four sides of the stone with his thumb, this

and the prayers connected, being the blessing which dedicates the building to the service of God.. While the stone was being placed In position the Litany of All Saints was chanted by the clergymen. The day's program ended with the benediction given in the old church and the congregational singing of the Te Deum.

chapel for week day services. While in . most churches the sanctuary light is obtained through windows

in the rear, in the new St. Joseph's ; church this light will be furnished i through sldewlndows, the old system blinding the ' audience, ' and throwing

the altar in the shadow. Temporarily, ribbed glass, instead of

'stained glass, will be used for the bis ! windows, the object' being to furnish

the church - first -with a magnificent! high altar.- This altar-is to be of white ! marble with a canopied top after the j

style of the main altar in St. Peter's at Rome, and other large basilicas. The floors of the sanctuary and the vestibule will be of marble, while the balance of the, floor will also be of some stone combination. The entire structure is planned ' to be fireproof. Owing to a previous engagement the Rev. Bishop Alerding of the Ft. Wayne diocese could not be present and his place was taken by Mgr. Heer.
