DEATH OF M. CASEY
nrnmi is NOW BULLMOOSER
Wiliam Casey, of Pensylvanla and Indiana avenues, one of the pioneers of Indiana harbor, died yesterday afternoon in St. Margaret's Hospital, Hammond, of typhoid fever. Mr. Casey hal been sick with the fever for the past week and yesterday morning, in a fit of delirium, he got up from bed and evading his nurses, made his way to the street, but was soon overtaken and returned to the house. In a short time after that he was taken to the hospital, where he died in the afternoon. The deceased was well liked and had many friends in the Harbor. For years he was a melter in the open hearth at the Inland Mills, having been brought here by Superintendent John Gavln, of that department, from Cumberland, Md- in 1902. Soon after his arrival in Indiana Harber he Joined the volunteer lire department, and up to the time that this service was dispensed with and a paid department organized, he was always one of the most active and willing fighters In the Harbor. Mr. Casey was born in Ireland fortytwo years ago, and came to this country while yet in his teens. He went to
Muncle, Ind., in 1893, and to South Chi-! cago in 1898, where he worked for a short time, gooing from there to Cumberland. He had left the employ of the Inland about three years ago and Just prior to his sickness was working at the American Steel Foundy's plant. He leaves a widow, Katherlne Casey, and two little girls, Mary, seven, and Eleanor, three years"old, to mourn his death. Besides these he also leavs a brother, John Casey, who is in Ireland, and a sister, Mrs. James Gallen, of East St. Louis, who arrived this morning. The funeral will take place torow afternoon from St. Patrick's Church. Father Wakefer will conduct the services and Burns & McGuan will be in charge of the interment at Hammond.
Says Teddy Roosevelt Is the Greatest Living Champion of The People.
There was much surprise in Gary last night when It was learned that exAlderman "Battleare" Castleman, recent candidate for the democratic nomination for mayor, had become converted to the bull moose party. "Me for Teddy Roosevelt, the greatest living champion of the pe-pull," said "Battleaxe." Incidentally the bull moosers of precinct 18, ward S, elected "Battleaxe" as delegate to the Gary Citizens' convention, to be held today. Changes Parties Three Times. Within the course of three weeks weeks "Battleaxe" has successively
been a democrat. Independent democrat, and now he is a progressive. Leaders of the independent democracy would not' comment on "Battleaxe's " desertion of their ship, but as they are all working for a common cause the Citizens party the ultimate results are the same, they said.

Dr. Frank W. Smith, coroner of Lake
county, chairman of the Gary republican
committee and head of the Citizens'
committee, in a stirring speech said that
the people of Gary had been too mindful of their individual interests note that therr had arisen in their'city government "a stagnant, loathsome, corrupt, pool of political fraud." Dr. Smith denounced Mayor Knotts as a tyrannical dictator. Resolutions passed by the convention condemned the "present administration "as guilty of gross carelessness and of extravagance In spending the people's money for the furthering of special Interests. Intimidation by the police and Are departments were denounced and the resolutions held that the police interference in Gary elections was dangerous to the liberties guaranteed by the fedral constitution." During the middle of the morning session Mr. Hodges, the temporary chairman was made permanent head of the convention and William J. Fulton, permanent secretary, was elected to fill that position permanently. When the rules and resolutions commitees reported. Dwight M. Kinder and Arthur Carnduff. respectively read the committee reports. They were adopted unanimously.
Consider Petulance and Age of Weston.
(Special to Thb Times.) Crown Point, Ind., July 12. "A walk.
er but no talker" and a "genuine old crab" were the epithets applied to
Walker Weston by a number of the boy scouts of this place, whom made a spe
cial endeavor to make things pleasant and received the veteran pedestrian in
somewhat fitting shape on his advent
here. Twenty or twenty-five tired and
footsore scouts hiked to Winfield on Thursday night where they met Weston about 9 o'clock. It was all fixed up by the scouts to receive Weston in open arms, make a pretty little speech
of "welcome to our city," present him
with a bunch of roses and the key to
the city, but it was another case of the
"best laid "plans of mice and men, etc" for the lads were bitterly disappointed in their reception of Weston, or rather
his reception of them. Lined up like
soldiers on dress parade the lads pa
tiently awaited Weston's arrival. Upon
his advent the speech maker of the
crowd stepped forward to present his little "spiel," but the bid hiker with only a grunt, a "humph" and a nod.
kept right on going, ordered the lads
to fall in behind and ambled on toward
Crown Point. Nary a word was spoken
by Weston to his twenty or so ad
mirers on the long three-mile hike to
this city from Winfield, and tired and
disappointed they left him at the Young hotel on Nichols street where . the
weary old hiker put up for the night.
Certain sure there wasn't any delegation of boy scouts on hand yesterday morning to escort Weston out of the city on his grind to Hammond and the
scouts avow that when they hike si
miles again to meet some one that they
will stay at home in bed.

REPUBLICANS
HOLD MEETING
The first real meeting of the Repub
licans was held last in Wetland's Hall in East Chicago, and was attended by
nearly fifty East Chicago and Indiana Harbor business men. The object of
the meeting, as stated in the call sent
out by Chairman W. B. Van Home, was simply to discuss the situation and the exchange of viewa and suggestions us
to the best mode of procedure for the
conduct of the coming city campaign
Chairman Van Home presided and called on nearly everyone present for
an expression of opinion. Confidence and enthusiasm was denoted In every
response, and all declared themselves
willing and anxious to get to work and
make a success of the election.
The question of nominating by primary or convention was discussed and
the consensus of opinon seemed to fa
vor the primary system. Everybody seemed alive to the fact, too, that a live chairman and vice chairman, with
a strong bunch of precinct committee
men, was one of the most important
features in a successful campaign
dan it was strongly urged that gret care be given to the makeups of this
committee, when its members will he
selected. at the mass meeting to be held
in the Auditorium in Indiana Harbor
next Tuesday night.

It was reported yesterday from New York that the M. Rumely Company of La Porte would close down Its plants August 1 and probably keep them closed until January 1. Clarence S. Funk, president of the company, was not in the city yesterday and the report was not confirmed by him. The shutdown, if it ordered, is supposed to be for the purpose of allowing tlie new Funk management to catch up on the overproduction In certain lines of the company's output. This is an off season for much of the company's machines and there is said to be an abundance in stock to meet all possible demand. It is said to be the intention to collect as much as possible of
the company's bills receivable, pay its own obligations and start the new year in better financial position The Rumely Company's trouble resulted from overborrowing, from production of machinery far beyond the requirements of the market and from poor collections on machinery sold. It is said that the intention of the new management is to stop manufacturing operations until the finances of the company can be placed down to a better basis.
