Several of the Gary democratic primary candidates have come to the j realization that they are being knifed by Tom Knotts in order to boost his own mayoral nomination chances. For intsance the mayor has decided to boost Judge Ora L. Wildermuth for renomination much to the disgust of Price, Gottliebs and Glaser, who have been in the Knotts band wagon. Robert Emmett O'Connor, the fifth judicial candidate, Is taking cane of himself. Orders have 'also gone out, It is said, to knife Justice James V. Costello and John Hamilton, candidates for the city clerk nomination, In order that Carl O. Dennewitz assistant editor of the Gary Tribune may be nominated. The dslre to name Mr. Dennewitz is not so much a tribute to him personally as it is to the Gary Tribune for its good work In behalf of the democratic party and the knowledge that it will be necessary to keep It "lined up."

Nick Fitzgerald and Michael Kane, policemen of the South Chicago police station, are looking for two young financiers who not only reaped a harvest from automobiles returning from Indiana yesterday but put a crimp in the wtll laid plans of the bluecoats to catch offending speeders. The two policemen planned a speeders' trap in Ewing avenue. Kane stationed himself at One Hundred and Fourth street while Fitzgerald stood at One Hundred and First. As the automobiles swept into Ewing avenue from One Hundred and Sixth street Kane gave a signal by whicu

This trap had not caught a single victim by nightfall and it was learned that two boys had stationed themselves in One Hundred and Sixth street, where they gave warnings of the policemen's presence in return for nickels and dimes.
