The state official also made it known that th state government recOKnized the rapid crowth of (lary and that the city by legislative act was confined iu the fourth class whereas its business and population fully entitled it to second class rank. He succosted relief, which under the law cannot come, until lf20, by appealincr to the next legislature. And he further stated that the state board of accounts, fully appreciating the situation at Gary, was ready to show figures to the K'heral assembly why the governmental functions of Gary should be broadened. Advice On Improvements. Mr. Iehority pave some pood advice

alonu the ;ine of public improvement accounting-. He said that unless a separate account w're kept for each project, each bond issue, etc., that the city would lose thousands of dollars. This was idust rated by tho case of a property owner who might, after two years, decide to pay up his entire assessment. Should the interest thus onticipated b. $51 enouph bonds should be recalled to cover that amount. liut in Gary and many other cities this has not been dune and thousands of dollars have been lost to the cities as they were obliged to pay It out of the municipal treasury. The state account i ntr chief said that the comptroller of Gary should know at the end of jach day the city's financial standing just as a bank president knows the conditions of his Institution. Adequate a ceou nt inpr facilities should be provided. "The city of Gary should know the cost per unit of its sewrrapo disposal operations and the cost as compared with other cities. This will take Rood accounting," lie stated.

self post haste to the scene. On his

arrival he was led to the rear yard, where a number of boarders of the Melville avenue house were pressing their shoulders to the door of the outhous. From within emanated howls and a clatter of feet and lists that was something terrible. "Don't open that door, or he will murder you," implored the guard. "He has a knife as long as your arm and a 42-caliber gun and he mitiht miss you and hit one of us if he shot." "Never mind about that," replied Mike. "1? e that will subdue him." And waving aside the crowd he threw open the door and captured the excited man who had been raising all the rough house. He found everything as stated. The man held a gun which at close range in the hands of the excited citizen had the appearance of a toy cannon, but which reposing later In the drawer of the sergeant's desk, looked more like a 32-callber revolver. On the floor of the temporary prison lay a murderous looking kn'fe. "Come out o' that." said Sergeant Mike in his most masterful tone. "Put on this Jewelry," and, suiting action to words, Sergeant Mike yanked Citizen Mike out without further ado. slipped a pair of come-alongs onto h'.s wrists and led him like a lamb to the slaugh-

PICK UP SArE BLOWERS' MASKS Michigan City, Ind., Nov. 19. Deputy sheriffs of this county today were trailing the Eve men who blew the safe of the ( Medaryville bank last Thursday morning and escaped with $1,000, but were unable to locate the robbers. The officers found that the men went north on a Monon hand car to Wilders, where they dumped the hand car In the river and probably went to Otis on a freight train. Five strangers were seen in Otis on the day of the robbery. They started northward across the fields and presumably came to this city, as the officers today found In a vacant house two miles south of here a polka dot handkerchief with diagonal corners

tied and a half of a handkerchief with a string attached to fit the back of tho head, which fitted the half of a handkerchief that was found at Medaryville on the morning of the robbery. The police, of this city are searching for other clews.

implicated in the robberies and as the robberies were all committed in the same vicinity the work was done by the same party. Although one of the thieves was seen at work a description of him could not be given on account of the darkness.

The places that were broken into are: Furniture store of Lewis Keifer, corner of 119th and Clark streets. Entrance was gained by forcing boiler room door in basement. Carried cash register from store into the alley and secured $5 in cash. Nothing else was disturbed. Flat of Sherman Hazard, over the Seifer store, was broken into about 4:.10 this morning. Took a lady's hand bag, $5 in cash and 14 silver spoons.
