WHITING CITY COUNCIL MEETS (Special to Tub Times.) Whiting. Ind Scut. 11.

The council adopted an ordinance providing; for a license fee for conducting muvins picture shows and vaudeville p i f orn..; nets. The fee is vow $12 per year, having- been cut from ?;i per year, which the owners of moving picture and vaudeville houses were formerly compelled to pay. Saloon licenses were granted to Steve Mayo. Andrew Demkovitch, Thomas McHale. Thomas Cerajewski, Johr. Urban and Mike Faltis. The final asnessm-nt roll providing for the improvement of Center street and Davidson place v,-as adopted.

The Locomotive Superheater Company is the latest, of the many manufacturing concerns which have recent, ly purchased sites in the Twin cities, to let the contract for the construction of their plant. The Ralph Sollltt Company has secured the general contra'.-t and sublet the etel construction portion of lt to the Kenwood Bridge company of Chicago. The first unit, of the four which will ultimately be built, will be 254 feet by 90 feet and will occupy th northwest corner of the company's tract which lies betwen the Champion Rivet Company's property and Mia canal with 151st street as the northern boundary line. The building- will b constructed of steel and brick and work will be bepun at once on the grading-, the contract for which will be let this week. The steel for th building has been ordered, and lt is t be on the ground by November 1st and thejbuilding- to be completed and ready for occupancy by January 1st. The reason that the first buidling; is located on the extreme western end of tho property is to leave plenty of room for the o'her units which will follow later. The new company will manufacture a contrivance which they attach to locomotives and has a tendency to greatly increase the power of the engine, but does not necessitate the usinjr of mich more fuel, and is now beinsr utilized by the Baldwin and other concerns enKase l in the manufacturing of locomotives.
