THE TIMES. Monday, April 14, 1913. PRESIDENT WILSON TALKS TO CONGRESS; BREAKS OLD PRECEDENT

TRACKS LAID FOR NEW GARY BLAST FURNACES Track are belasr laid for the raft lana Steel rapar preliminary to the building of four blast furnaces at Oarr works. The plant will then have twelve, art via- It the largest nntn la the Vnlted tatra. At the present time Soath Chicago worka and Edgar Thomson works. Homestead, have the moat blast fnraaeoa. each ha vine eleven. The now furnaces will be la a row with the a reseat etxht. Today the E. J. and K. railway track mea heart tho work of laying additional tracks to connect with the new yard site north of the coke oyeas. Gary works has ben so hampered for the want of iron that It conldn't snpply Its own demands. Becanxe of thin the works conldo't snpply enough steel for the sheet and tin plate mills, thereby forcing several shot downs at the latter plant when the corporation was unable to hay plR Iron In the open market. With four more bias furnaces Gary works will probably be able to take care of another allied steel Industry, either the Baldwin or America a Locomotive works. Aonouneement of the balldlna: of the ne wblast furnaces was first made In THE TIMES several months a so.

S4.000.000 MORTGAGE

IS GIVEN

The Gary Heat, Light' and "Water company, a subsidiary of the United States Steel corporation and one of its most prolific dividend earners has given a $4,000,000 mortgage upon its Gary properties to the Continental Trust and Savings bank of Chicago as trustee. " To Issue Bonds. Local officials who have no hand In the financial policy of the company are unable to state the object of the mortgage plan but It is believed to be the forerunner of a bond Issue announcement. The Gary water works, electrlo and gas lighting system was built by tho steel corporation out of Its surplus funds and It is believed that the $4,000,000 bond issue is to replace tbe moneys thus taken. Last year the corporation authorited a $40,000,000 bond Issue on Gary works to replace in part the $77,000,000 taken from the suplus funds to build the plan. Of this amount $15.000,000 has already been Issued. faauiT Gets Deeds.

Records at Crown Point show that the Gary Land company has given a warranty deed to the gas company for

the pumping station site In Jefferson park and acreage In sections 4 and 9. near the steel works. A one dollar, consideration Is named In each Instance. The corporation In building the Gary water works and tunnel system spent over $1,000,000 on this work alone.

President Wilson delivering messege to Congress. When President Wilson delivered his message in person to congress the other day h broke a precedent which had been growing for 112 years. Little complaint was heard from congressmen, however. Senators and representatives were all present in the House of Representatives to hear the address, and the galleries were crowded. The last president to speak personally to congress was John Adams, the second president.

which he procured at East hall, called the crowd together. Then the march began to the business district. Five hundred strong the stuoents marched through the streets. They were content for a time to shout and sing and race in mad confusion. Rushing alontr the sidewalk on Main street they ran over Marcus Brelholz, and the old man was badly bruised. On Lafayette

street they took charge of a tool wagon belonging to DUle & Harris, contractors. Xo Restraint Shown. City and county authorities were on the scene to receive the clamoring university boys. Bricks, bottles and clubs were the weapons of the mob, while the squad of officers met the attack with the swinging clubs and drawn revolvers. Windows In the opera house and jail were broken, those In sn interurban car were smashed with clubs, and an arc light at the Methodist

church corner was knocked out by a brick. Windows and furniture In the Reddington resort on South Franklin avenue were broken, men were badly bruised and bleeding, and two students went to the hospital with broken arms. Nine were Jailed, and Officers Stansell and Rltz were knocked down with clubs. Maay Fights Easue. Fight after fight ensued. Officers snatched from out of the mob their first prisoner, a man by the name of Cooper. With his garments nearly torn off he was landed in Jail. Later McDonald was caught, and soon after Brown and Hull were captured. The first shots came from the guns of

the officers when a rain of beer bottles I

came across the street In their direction from the opposite side of the thoroughfare. Now came the fusillade of bricks and stones at the Jail and theatre, and again the shots rang out as the disorderly crowd went rushing by hurling missies. Two windows in the jail were broken and one in the opera house. Threat to Kill. The excitement became Intense. Offi

cers were at a high pitch of anger; j numerous threats Were heard, both on (the part of citizens and students, and .It looked as thought blood would be

shed. "All Valparaiso people get out of the crowd," shouted a deputy; "we are going to shoot to kill," and the crowd began to disperse, slowly but surely. In the west - windows of the Jail sat men armed with heavy guns, and Sheriff Llndall carried a shotgun, with determination outlined iri his features. Officers began to surge through the crowd ordering all to their homes, and some were arrested who refused to obey. Police Are On Jump. While conditions were becoming normal at this point, trouble was brewing farther south, where a crowd was in conference on the corner of Monroe street and Franklin avenue. A little later the officers were called by telephone to the Redding resort, where It was reported that the mob was demolishing the building and It scontents.

and Chief of Police Stansell and his

men hurried In that direction. At the

Pennsylvania crossing they were met

by a group, the members of which were

signaling their comrades of the approach of the officers. In the attack on the student body at the Reddington house Gregg Stansell was knocked

down with a club. The offenders soon were hurrying across the fields In the

direction of the university.

Affidavits were sworn out Friday for

ten alleged violators of the law. One of the number Is still at liberty. Two

charges are preferred, one for disturb

ance of a public meeting and the other

for rioting. Bonds were fixed by Judge

Bartholomew at $800 each. Prosecut

lng Attorney W. J. Fablng asked that

the bonds be placed at $1,500. Th

hearing will be held late this evening.

the state association, who Is here as

it would hav. gone through had there

been more organization behind It. We

have not let up in the fight and will

endeavor to persuade the investigating commission which will be appointed by-

Governor Ralston as a result of ou

fight, to recommend a bill that likely will bo more satisfactory to employers

than any hitherto proposed.

such tremendous profits out of the ex orbitant premiums for liability lnsur

much waste to the present system of
