Judge Becker suggested that the. commercal clubs of the region favor the granting of additional powers to the state board of health so that It could secure expert engineering advice in the solution of problems of sewage disposal and could enforce Its mandates after It had determined on a plan of sewage disposal. Dr. William D. Weis, secretary of the committee on health and sanitation of the Hammond Chamber of Commerce, then made a motion covering the suggestions that had been outlined by Judge Becker, and the motion was carried. It Is expected that in the near future a bill will be drawn up and turned over to the representatives of this district in the house and senate asking that the board of health be given Increased power to order the proper disposal of sewage and the protec tion of the water supply. The remarks of most of the other speakers preceded those of Judge Becker, so that their views as expressed then were altered by the appeal that the Judge's suggestions made to their good judgment. Mayor Beaumont. Parks pointed out that the city of Whiting is in a drain
age basin of Its own as a result of be
ing bounded on the north by Lake
Michigan, on the west by Wolf lake, on
ine south by Lake George, and on the
east by the Indiana Harbor canal.

units that Hammond has two. Its north
and south side; East Chcago has two
its east and west sides, and that Gary
has one. Dr. Lauer of Whiting talked In fa
vor of the creation of a drainage dis
trict ana pointed to the benefits that
would be derived from having centralized authority over the whole ter
ritcry.
citrs i-unit-r, wno was selected as the Indiana, Harbor spokesman, stated
that he still favored the creation of a
drainage district that would cover the
entire region and would Insure at once the protection of water supply and the
disposal of sewage.
engineer hhields of Hammord told of his investigations, what problems he had encountered, how he expected to
siphon the sewage from the Robertsdale district under the canal to the sewer, which would dump it into the

SERVICE ON LINE
IS DEPLORABLE Continued from fare one
pass one backs onto a stub track while the other passes by. The heads of tho company seem to have no idea of the needs and requirements of this growing territory. . ..
This is, the crudest sort of railroading for . a company which does the. business that is done by the traction line here and the people are.getting wise to the fact.
. The wail that is going up against the service is becoming louder and louder. When one car on; the Hammond-East Chicago run had 130 fares rung up on a single trip one way and people were packed in so tightly that they couldn't get out, it is time something was done. The problem of, routing seems to be the one that ' requires the most serious attention. Hammond is getting to have a tribe of strap-hangers. There is no question about it. And the worst of it Is that the local managers and sponsors for th lines are not to blame at all. The fault lies in Chicago.
JURY HUNG IN INSURANCE CASE A Jury composed of Rev. Alexander Monroe, T. H. Skinner. A. A. Bremer, ex-deputy prosecuting attorney at Crown. Point, J. J. Day and H. Bainbridge listened to the cane of Steve Sakacs vs. the Midland Casualty com-pa-ny. . The -plaintiff, according to the testimony, had held an accident policy in the Midland, which he allowed to lapse ln March. He was Injured in
August and paid an agent named Greenwald of South Chicago for the intervening months since the lapsing of the policy, in an . effort to make the policy operative so that he could draw 5200 on It. Greenwald has said he would take the matter up with the company. The company denied the complainant the right to renew the policy after allowing It to lapse and refused to pay the damages. In the meantime the agent kept possession of the ten spot, according to the evidence. The case was brought before Judge George Reiland In Indiana Harbor and a change of venue was taken from his court to that of George H. Lewis. The Jury was hung by J. J. Day and B. Balnbridge. who refused, it Is said, to agree to a verdict ln favor of the defendant, at the rest of the Jury thought proper.

j Wright thought he knew of no way
uuite so delightful as to gt the pig full. So he proceeded to put his inspiration into execution. ;W - Ife started out early Sunday morning taking his porker . from, one saloon to another. At each place'he , bought the animal a drink. The result was that the pig began to act after the manner of men who are Intoxicated. First he
. Rot gay and then -he got sassy, and
j showed fight. He also staggered -likt
a ship in a heavy sea. When master as well as pis g-ot sassy the proprietors of the ' saloons visited by the pair objected and both were thrown out. This aroused the belligerence of Wright and finally some one called up the police. Officers Xangel and Rybe-ekl responded to the call. ''Let me deal with the man." said Xangle, to Rybecki, "while you arrest the porker." This was done and the prisoners were led to the station. The chief Of police refusd to have the pig In his office, and it was carried
to on of the cells in the "ladles" department. Here it created much excitement . by protruding . its head through the bars., and then sticking fast. It squealed and It wriggled, but it was no go. Vaseline was applied to its head and by main strength it was finally released from its plight. When Sergeant Mike Gorman arrived to take the desk, he decided it was a shame to lead a respectable porker astray and he decided to take the pig horn and give it something to eat. On his arrival at the house however, the pig was so sound asleep that nothing Mike or his family could do, would arouse it. "Sure, he'd rather sleep than eat," said Mike and brought the pig back to the station. -
