dust and dirt. The facial covering served
to attract attention of one of the detectives who were watching for Mrs. Dowd
and Mrs. M. Ryan, another "coin toter"
suspect.
Miss Morton, on being accosted by the
minion of the law at first refused to

actress proved to the Nick Carters that
they had been baffled again. Curses!

as, however, been decided already that
he is to make one or more addresses in
dlana. "We can say nothing definitely as
yet," said County Chairman' John A.
Gavlt today, "but it the candidate will make a number of addresses in Indiana,
we feel quite confident that one of them
will be made in Lake county."
Governor Marshall, who Is the vice
presidential candidate, is relied on to do the principal campaign work in Indiana.
While no loyal democrat will admit It,
the national democratic ticket is not a
strong one as far as Lake country is
concerned. Governor Wilson's man
agers have to carry on a defensive
campaign here because of the govern
or's statements with reference to the
foreigners, while Governor Marshall has
made himself unpopular In Gary at
least, for taking a hand In the govern
mental affairs of the city. Under these circumstances It Is thought the party
workers will do everything in their power to have the candidates and the
voters meet face to face.

During the past week the police have
experienced an unusual quietness, bu
they were in no way surprised when
the lull broke, as they were expecting a crime wave at almost any time. As
early as Saturday afternoon the report
began to come in and when dawn broke this morning the cells at the Central
station were filled to their capacity.
The two days and nights revelry
nearly broke the police record fo
drunks and minor charges, and not 1

In the city court at one time as there
! was this morning. Each defendant was brought - before the court and sworn and in" nearly every instance they asked ' for leniency. Several cases were dismissed as the ., defendants pleaded that this was their first offense and promised the court if they were released this time that they would never he seen at the police head, quarters again.

sew up the wounds.

MAYOR UUR6AN
DISPLEASED WITH
DEMOCRATIC LEADER!
Lafayette's Executives De
clares Taggart Was Slow.
Lafayette, Ind., July 15. Mayor Geo.
R. Durgan, one of tlie delegates from i
the Tenth district to the democratic
convention at Baltimore, who returned
from the east yesterday, in a publio
statement says he does not think much
of the work of some of the Indiana leaders at Baltimore. Mayor Durgan
will likely bo a candidate for the In
diana leaders at Baltimore. Mayor Durgan will likely be a candidate for
the democratic nomination for representative from the Tenth district and
his friends feel th.at ho can defeat the
present Incumbent. E. D. Crumpacker
Durgan said that Thomas Taggart, Secretary Menzies, Senator Shlvely and Joseph Bell proved themselves to be poor leaders of the Indiana delegation. He added that Taggart on the famous
Bryan resolution did not get in right until he noticed the band wagon running right over him. Durgan In a long interview continued by saying that the leadership was humiliating and that precinct leaders could have done better.
PICK POCKETS
WERE BUSY
Pickpockets invaded Hammond yes
terday and worked among the large
crowds at the Lake Front park and Kindts groye. Although they did not have a very prosperous day they
claimed two victims from Hammond, who were William B. Newman, 645 Morton court, and B. Kammerer, 244 Indiana avenue. From Mr. Kammerer a sum of about $8 was taken out of his pocket. Whether his pockets were picked on the street car going out to Kindels grove or whether it was taken in the park is not certain, but after he had been at Kindels grove for some time he found that his money had been taken. He left Hammond for Kindel's groce on the 2:55 p- rn. car and thinks It might have bee ntaken while he was in the packed street car. Mr. Newman is the loser of a valuable gold watch which he prizes more highly for the gift than Its value. Mr. Newman suspects that it was taken out of his pocket at the Lake Front park last evening when he was standing at the rear of the bath house. A man came up and asked him for a match and It was at this time that Mr. Newman thinks that the watch was picked from his pocket.

Watson to Stump the Country for Taft-
Sherman Ticket.
Washington, July 15. Former Ren
resentative James E. Watson of Indiana will stump the country for the Taft-Sherman ticket. This announcement was made last week after Mr.
Watson had a conference with C. D,
Hllles, the new Republican national chairman. Mr. Watson has not always been an ardent Taft man. Just prior to the recent Chicago national convention he created much gossip by advocating the nomination of a dark horse, but later he blossomed out as the leader of the Taft forces on the floor of the convention. Mr. Watson confirmed the report that he was to tour the country for Taft and and Sherman, but said that no arrangements had been made as to speaking dates. Governor Hadley of Missouri, who was the convention floor leader for the Roosevelt, forces, but who has announced his determination to support Taft, also will be asked o make a nation-wide tour.
