SECRETARY BAUER

BACKJROWl TRIP

Manufacturer Tries to Find

Available Substitute for

Coal in East.

After spending a week visiting va

rious big manufacturing plants in dlf

ferent Indiana cities were for the purpose of learning how these plants solve

their fuel Question. Carl K. Bauer of

the Simplex returned to Hammond last

night. The Simplex, like other big estab

lishments, where Intense heat Is used

in manufacturing processes, is trying to find a substitute for fuel oil which

the Standard Oil company has practic

ally withdrawn from the market by

putting a prohibitive price on It. In

Pennsylvania some time ago Mr. Bauer

found that the plants were using pow

dered coal with much success, but on his Indiana trip he was greatly Im

pressed with the success of a certain kind of hcatins gas. which the manufactlng p'ants are able, to provide for

themselves at a very moderate cost.

In going over Indiana Mr. Bauer saw much of the havoc wrought by the recently floods and he says some places

are the very rrtcTrrrr of desolation as

result of the high water.

More assurance was given the Hammond city administration last night

that a city market can be made a big success in Hammond. Ali"'the leading

farmers in the vicinity of Highlands

gathered at the public school there to hold an informal discussion of the project with the city's representatives.

Marketmaster F. J. O'Rourka and

City Attorney John A. tiavlt were at the meeting. Mayor Smalley, who had alsd flrmlv planned on going, was de

tained at home, however, by the arriv

al of his sister from Panama.

Want a Dully Market. Like at the Saxony meeting several

weeks ago, Marketmaster O'Rourke

outlined the city's proposition to the farmers. They were so enthusiastic about the prospects that they insisted on having a daily market. Like their neighbors at Saxony, the farmers at Highlands wanted to know

whether the city would attempt to fix

the prices. Marketmaster O'Rourke as

sured them that the city had no such intention, but that it would not permit permit a combination among the farm

ers to maintain artificial prices.

They proved themselves an alert and

progressive set of farmers in their dis

cussions. They are in fact big pro

ducers, and have in tho past sent their

products to the South Water street market, or sold them to the sallng stations at Highlands or Sehrumville.

(.roTTin Too Want Market. From the discussions that were had

last night, the Highlands farmers are

convinced that the principal of, the city market Is correct. They figure

that they can command a better price on the Hammond public market than if they sold to the commission merchants at South Water street or to the

salting stations and that the Hammond

them than they could through the South Water street commissioners. They are saving themselves and the consumers the freight and the commission merchants' profit. The city officials gave their audience the assurance that the Hammond grocers, too, favor the public market and that they can bo relied to patronl.te the market liberally. Kven East Chicago and Whiting merchants are look

ed to come into the Hammond market eventually. Open Ijitter Part of May. The question was raised last night whether or not the South Water street hucksters peddling from store to store would In any way Interfere with the farmers. Andrew Welter, himself one of the big farmers near Highlands, asked a question for an answer. Said he: "Is it possible for any huckster to sell with profit provisions which In addition to the original cost of producton bear a charge for freight hauling Into the South Water street market, the commission merchants' profits, and the hauling out from the South Water street?" Marketmaster O'Rourke will also attempt to hold a farmers' massmeetlng at Munster and possibly another at Ross, the latter place being quite a berry center. After these meetings he will devote himself to working out the details so as to nsure a well regulated market when It opens. The opening day has not yet been fixed, but It probably will not take place until the latter part of May. By that time It Is thought that the farmers will have enough garden truck to warrant their coming In. Mr. O'Rourke Is urging the farmers on every side to plant a large variety, as this plan is to the. advantage of both

Had Serious Lung

Trouble-Now Well

It is surprising that there exists much skepticism as to the possibility of a person recovering from severe Lung Troubles when there are so many re-

ports"'of "complete, recoveries brought about through the use of Kckman's Alterative. This Is a remedy for the throat and lungs, which should be In

vestigated by every sufferer. Read of

this case: 1619 Susquehanna Ave.. Phlla., Pa.

My Dear Sir: For two years I was

afflicted with hemorrhages of the

lungs, and in February of 1902 I was

taken with a severe attack of pneu

monia. When I recovered sufficiently

to walk about the house I was left with

a frightful hacking cough, which no medicine I had taken could alleviate. It was at this time. March. 1902. that I started taking Kckman's Alterative. In a short time my cough was gone and

I was pronounced well. Since that time I have had two slight attacks of pneumonia and 1 have resorted to

no other medicine to effect a recov

ery. I cannot speak too highly for the

good it has done." (Signed HOWARD L. KLOTZ.

HUMANE

SOCIETY'S SESSION That the public generally Is being

convinced that the Lake County Hu

mane society of Hammond is filling

a need in Hammond wan evidenced at

the regular monthly meeting last

night, when a number of applications

were received for membership.

In order to further broaden Its scope

and effectiveness, the organization voted to have lieutenants in outlying city

and counfy districts appointed, who

shall be clothed with police power.

The resignation of Isaac Stanford

former humane officer, which had been

pending for some time, was accepted

last night, after it was thoroughly un

derstood that his work along another

line takes him out of the el'?,

It was also decided last night thai

nil the members and those co-operating with the society shall In the future ad

dress all compialnts to Miss Symmes the president of the. society.
