Lipski to Frank Stokloaa... 2C0 STREET CAR SITUATION IS CLEARED UP Continued from Pare Li bound track of the South Shore, there by economizing space and placing the tracks as nearly together as safetj per mits. The details of the agreement upon which the different lines ore to operate are not of much Interest to the average citizen. The main point is that the differences of the contending lines have been retrial and that work on the new lines whlcn has been held up for some time will proceed forth with. Incidentally it will necessitate the changing of the location of the tracks of the South Shore from their present location to their new position. This work is to be begun, according to the contract, within five days of the time the board of public works of East Chicago shall approve of such re-loca tion and installing the tracks, and it is to be completed within sixty days of the date of the board's approval. Another feature of the contract which will meet the approval of clti-! zens generally is that the overhead trolley wires of the new lines will be strung fro mthe? span wires of the South Shore, doing away with the necessity of extra poles. There will be three tracks across the bascule bridge over the canal at Chicago avenue, two belonging to the South Shore and one used Jointly by the Gary & Interurban and the Hammond. Whiting and East Chicago line. Heretofore there has been but one track across the canal, that one the property of fhe South Shore. The Hammond, Whiting and East Chicago will connect up their Forsyth avenue line with the Chicago avenue, by means of a curve at Chicago and Forsyth avenue, thus enabling the company to run cars directly from Indiana Harbor to Hammond without transfer. While there is nothing said in the contract regarding the short piece of track on Michigan avenue between Guthrie and the Pennsylvania railroad

company's tracks, owned by the South Shore, it Is understood that the South Shore will remove this piece of trackage thereby permitting the Gary and Interurban, which has a franchise to near the Lake Shore depot, to begin work on that extension of their line as soon as this Is done.

OBSTACLES ARE ALL REMOVED ICeatlnned from Pan LW company and the East Chicago company were also included In the settlement thereby removing the last of the legal obstructions to the road. The basis of the settlement was a reduction of $1,500 in the benefits assessed against the Honore estate making the benefits $1,640 Instead of 93,140 as first levied. The McClintock Marshall benefit was reduced from $2,200 to $1,700. The East Chicago Company dismissed their case without any changes In their assesment. The amount appraised for the value of the land belonging to the Honore estate and condemned for the use of the road was $13,800 which with the benefits of $3,140 deducted, would leave ?10,000 to be made up by assessments on other properties In the vicinity of Parish avenue and Dickey place ex tended. The East Chicago company of course. would be the biggest contributors toward this assessment. But small prop erty owners In Indiana Harbor must also expect to pay their share of the assessment leviea. iney snouid also bear In mind that the extension of Dickey place Is one of the most impor tant improvements accruing to Indi ana Harbor in many years and it is very essentiol that the taxes levied for this development be paid within the next ten days or suit will at once be Instituted. This, of course, will only add court costs and attorney's fees to a tax which must be paid anyhow Those who understand the situation and all It Involves are a unit In the opinion that the representatives of the city acted wisely in taking the matter of the Dickey road out of the courts and settling it at once and for all. The concessions, amounting to $2,000, that is to say, $1,500 to the Honore estate and $500 to the McCllntlck-Marshall company, will be taken care of out of the general fund by an ordinance which will be presented to the coun ctl at the next regular meeting. It is not expected that any opposition to this measure will develop, as the necessity of providing for the contingen cy will be evident to all the council men. DONOVAN IS NEWPOSTMASTER THERE (Continued from Page one) confirmation of the fact. He declared he had been expecting the appointment. but stated that a number of others who were out after the office, had enter tained similar expectations. Mr. Donovan Is an old resident of East Chicago, having come to this city twenty-three years ago, when it was little more than a dot on the map. A democrat by Inheritance, his father who also resides In East Chicago hav ing always been a follower of Jefter sonlan doctrines, the new postmaster has, since he was old enough to vote. taken an active Interest In politics. Ha has never held public office, but has always been prominently identified with the local democratic organization, and four years ago he ran for city clerk on the citizens ticket, there being no democratic ticket in the field at that time. Mr. Donovan In spite of his present occupation which Is along mechanical lines, has had training which fits him for the office of postmaster, having worked for several years In the office of the chemical company at Grasselll. where he learned to be systematic and got a good "idea of office details which should stand him In good stead in his new position. After leaving Grasselli he learned the trade of a moulder. which Is the calling of his father, and which he has followed ever Blnce. The new postmaster Is a member of the East Chicago lodge of Masons, and lU'es at 4939 Tod avenue. Donovan, Sr, has his home at 4723 Tod avenue. E THE TRIP On Wednesday night some Gary boy will be selected to make a trip around the world free of cost. He must be a boy of near perfect ability as an allaround scholar and athlete. The National Youths' Achievement committee, pursuant to a request from some Gary men, will allow the steel city one entry. Today a hall will be selected, probably the Moose hall, and on Wednesday evening the boys already chosen "headed by Major Sidney FIxoto of the California national guard will come to Gary to witness the selection. Any boy who wishes to become an entrant for the trip around the world may apply to Prof. Wulfing of the Emerson school for anfappllcation blank. The winner will be selected by a committee consisting of the mayor, the superintendent of the Gary steel mills, the superintendent of the Gary public schools, a lawyer and a business man. It will be necessary for Gary to put up a fund of $750 for the expenses of the trip and the mayor and W. P. Gleason, superintendent of the steel mills guarantee to raise two-thirds of this amount. ? The fortunate Chicago youth selected lives with his father at 3557 Harold avenuf, Berwyn. He Is a student at the J. Sterling Morton school. His rec-

He explained that he was anxious to have a good swim mer go abroad because of the foreign boys' proficiency in that line. ARE BUSY IN GARY A crime wave that began In Gary yesterday and that ended this morning resulted In two holdups. In which one of the victims was shot, several minor thefts, and three cutting affrays in the; negro quarter. In all twenty-five ar rests were made by the police. Shot Over Heart Lves. William Robertson, 50 years old. while making his way from the Lake Shore depot to his home at 752 Connecticut street, at one o'clock this morning was shot in the breast just; over the heart when he resisted three holdup men who waylaid him near his, residence. Robertson, however, was not badly wounded as the pistol ball' lodged In the thick muscles of his chest, and he is able to be around today. Th thieves, who thought that they had. killed their victim, then rifled his! pockets, securing a gold watch and a. wallet containing . about $25. This morning the police arrested Joseph Stenno as a suspect. S Rlda-e District Hold I'p. Yesterday noon another holdup occurred In which, the police at pistol point captured the three men. accused of the robbery. While walking along the Nickle Plata tracks, a half mile west of Broadway, Alfred and George Currier and WMlliam Beinerman were stopped at pistol point by three hold up men who rifled their pockets. The men made their getaway, walking toward Hammond. Captured At Pistol Point. The three victims notified the police and within an hour Capt. Newman, and Patrolman Mlskin and Detectlva Kertesz were on the Black Oak road in an auto where at pistol point they arrested Pete Pors, Floyd Sommers and Tom Martin. The men had no other way to esrape from the tracks as the road Is the only dry path through tha marsh. Yesterday bicycles were stolen from in front of the residences of D. jr. Kinder, 572 Fillmore street, and John Rich, 22 Fillmore street. The police arrested Arthur Johnson, a sixteen year old boy In connection with the theft.
