C. L. KIRK RE CEIVES PROMOTION Cont!r.owl rrom Pasra n water company and is now In his way to look the ground over and decide whether he wants to accept. He wll arrive in East Chicago tomorrow. In leaving East Chicago Mr. Kirk Cots not sever his connection with C. H. Gelst. as this water and power magnate has recently purchased the Indianapolis concern and it is he who has transferred the East Chicago man. The change is a distinct promotion and while Mr. Kirk Is not savins: anvthine shout salary this will undoubtedly be J an advance over what the old position carried with it. The Indianapolis Water company is an eleven million dollar proposition and by the recent deal it became virtually the private property of C. 11. Gelst, to be held by him for all time as a legacy for his children. Mr. Kirk's duties In Indianapolis will be of a different nature from what they have been here, as the office entails more executive work and less detail. Boyd Will Remain Director. The new superintendent takes the position of L. C. Boyd, whose resignation took effect last evening. Mr. Boyd though retired will remain on the board of directors. Mr. Kirk Is a former Indianapolis man but has been associated with Mr. Gelst's interests in the Twin Cities for six years. During that time he has been active in politics, and has wielded much Influence. He Is now the city chairman of the Republican party In East Chicago.
