FEUDISTS IN BLOODY WARFARE TtTon tinned from Pace L.1 rioters, and got wind of the Identity of two others, although all parties under arrest maintain the greatest secrecv regarding the entire affair. The two not arrested last night but whose identity is known, will probably be captured during the day. The Indiana Harbor police station never housed a scene such as was presented last night after ten o'clock, when the five bloody victims were laid out as in a shambles. Four of them are still there, swathed in bandages, and one Is at his home, but one of the four may have to be taken to the hospital at Hammond for care. How Tronhle Started. It was ten o'clock when three of the feudists stumbled Into the police station. The officers saw at a glance what had happened, although the blood dripping warriors gave them little or no information. The three who came in are Sam Braza, Joe Serbti and Nle Georges. A detail of officers brought in two more John Campean who was found at 3106 Cedar street, but who said he was an Innocent bystander and Safron Metes who was found at 353S Block avenue .and who admitted his party In the warfare. Dirks the favorite weapon of the Roumanian had evidently been employed Judging by the nature of the wounds that the surgeons found. Two more who are known to have taken cart have not yet been located by the police. As soon as the gory trio came into the station three physicians were summoned and Drs. Ansley. Cox and Sauer responded. The trial of the rioters cannot be held until they are In a physlcalry fit condition again. Judge Walter Riley will sit In the cases. All aro charged with rioting. The conflict took place at the Intersection of Hubbard. One Hundred and Thirty-sixth and Cedar streets. The police expect little cooperation from the foreigners for information. They fight among themselves vi-ith the ferociousness of the tiger, but their clannish spirit predominates as against the American and the police authorities. "LITTLE JEFF" . BREAKS JAIL VConttnueA from Pare 1.1 Jollet penitentiary. Why this man, whose criminal career was well known, should have been made a trusty will be the subject of a searching investigation. Warden Allen last night was bemoaning his bad Judgement in permitting it. Escape Marvel of Daring. uie escape oi snarun, which was kept secret until last night, when fed eral officers in this and every other city in the land were warned to look out for him, was one of the most dar ing ever attempted at Jollet. Compared to it the escape of Harry K. Thaw from the insane a?ylum at Matt'eawan was a "joy-ride." As a trusty his night duty was to watch and keep oiled the big ventllat lng fan in the room directly over the warden's quarters; He had all of Tues day night to himself. He Improved It by working open a barred transom over the door deadlng ' to the roof of the building.

Sharun had stolen a suit of civilian's clothes from William Walsh, one of the shipping clerks and these he donned before working his way cautiously through the transom soon after two a. m. yesterday. Watching until the guard patroling the wall beyond the edge of the roof had turned is back, he wriggled through and then flattened himself as the guard again approached. He waited until the sentry's back was turned, and then darted over to the wall and started to slide down a garden hose. The presence of the hose showed conclusively that Sharun was aided by others. Jumps as Guard Fires.

Before his started his slide the guard again turned and saw him. His cry of "halt!" was followed by a bullet as Sharun made the jump, alighting on his feet. The fugitive stumbled and fell, but regained his feet, and made two jumps to the waiting auto. Fifteen minutes were lost before another automobile could start in chase, but the pursuit was In vain. No trace of the black racing car, running without lights, was found. Sharun, or Benton has been In pri son fifteen times. Besides being the leader and brains of the gang that cleared a fortune in forged postal money orders, he was leader of the Benton-Longpre and other gangs engaged In counterfeiting and forging checks and drafts. The federal officials for years have been looking for his chief lieutenant, "Ace Collins." He escaped from the Alabama state prison in 1891; from the Crawford, Pa., Jail In 1903; from the Meadvllle, Pa.. Jail In 1903. He Is wanted In half a dozen parts of the country to answer for various crimes. LEW SHANK RIDICULES GOVERNOR Continued trtim Pars on at French Lick at present?" the mayor was asked. "Did you ever 6ee It when there wasn't?" he countered. Up to the hour of gotng to press no troops had been called out to suppress gambling at French. Lick. Mayor Shank was a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor last year, and would have been nom inated had not W. T. Durbln come but as a candidate at the last minute. It was understood at the time that Dur bln came in the ring at the moment for the sole purpose of preventing the nom ination of Shank, because he was so eccentric that It was feared he might be elected. The Terre Haute incident referred to by Shank was when, a short time ago, a number of citizens of Terre Haute sent word to the Governor that gambling was running full tilt at the Terre Haute race meet and that the liquor laws were being violated openly and flaggrantly. They said beer was sold freely and openly on the race grounds without a license, and that the officers were doing nothing to stop the lawlessness. They appealed to the Governor to take a hand in the matter and put a stop to the violations of the law. They told him "they thought he should use the power of the state where the local officials failed to do their duty. The Governor informed them that It was up to the local officials to take care of the situation, and that if the people had any complaint to make they should make it to the local officers. The people sent word that they had tried to get the local officials to do something, but that they paid no attention to their pleas. The Governor refused to do anything. Just where the difference is between the Terre Haute situation and the situatldn at Mineral Splrngs is not apparent at this time, but one course was adopted for Terre Haute and another for Mineral Springs. That is what Shank referred to in his interview". It is not known whether the Governor ever has been asked to take steps to stop gambling at French Lick. It is notorious that gambling is carried on there, but nothing is ever done to stop it. It is said that the Governor finds a marked difference in the Terre Haute case and the Mineral Springs case in that the Terre Haute officials did not confess their inability to handle the violations of the law, while on the other hand the Porter county prosecutor Informed the Governor that he and the sheriff had tried hard to get evidence against the race track and had failed, and that they were unable to handle the situation. It was then that the Governor called out the troops. A wonderful picture is to be given at the Lyric theatre in East Chicago Friday matinee and night entitled "From the Manger to the Cross" a life picture story of the Christ produced in authentic locations in Palestine and Egypt. "From the Manger to the Cross" is a wonderful film of moving pictures. It is probably the most expensive and carefully planned film in the world. The life of Christ from His birth In a manger at Bethlehem to His crucifixion upon the cross at Mount Calvary is presented In moving form. Edward Davis, the lessee of the film from the Kalen company, reads selections from the Bible to fit each set. The pictures are presented In five parts, but each part in turn is broken into short sections. This proves a de cidedly effective way of breaking the tense situations that develop. It seemed more like a solemn church service than moving pictures. The audience sat In absolute silence. .The Kalem company followed Hoffman In presenting the features of Christ. Tissot in the detail of dress and customs and Herr Schick In architectural matters. The Babe of Bethleham and Christ child were overshadowed In the first parts by the wonderful pictures. One lost slfiht of the Christ in the striking

There was a meeting of the Citizens' party of Gary last night in the Feuer building where reports on the effectlve organization work that is going on were received. R. o. Johnson and the I Citizens held their meeting on the second floor while upstairs Mayor Knotts was delivering a flowery speech to a band of women. ReaMler's Little Joke. The humor on the second floor soon equaled that of the third floor when Attorney Ressler got up and made an impassioned speech telling of the need of a newspaper to back up the party. Mr. Ressler finally made It plain that the Gary Tribune should be supported and he proceeded to recount the magnificent services its editor had rendered In fighting the dragon Tom Knotts. Many had tears in their eyes. However, those who saw Mr. Ressler winking his right eye ten times a second while making the speech saved their tears and went forth from the session with dry handkerchiefs or dry coat sleeves, wlch ever the case happened to be. Mr. Ressler's speech was not Interrupted by the sobs and wringing of handkerchiefs but two darkies chewing grains of corn caused some excitement when they swallowed the corn and nearly choked. Tom Knotts: Terrible Drngon. Thereupon Mr. Ressler sat down and the editor of The Tribune stood up. He told what a tricky man Tom Knotts Is and that he didn't answer the lies In the Post because the Post would only tell more lies. Some wondered if the "lies" remained unanswered because the Tribune is getting half of the Knotts city printing, the whole swag being worth, about $200 a week, but there was rio time to enlighten the fleeced taxpayers on t'.iis point. Dr. Smith la Affected. Later on. the Tribune editor promised, he would become a regular dickens of a St. George and go out and assail the dragon Tom Knotts. Some one then whistled "In the sweet bye and bye" and the rest of the Citizen's agreed that no men should assail his meal ticket even if he happened to be a political "dragon." During the editors speech Dr. Frnnk W. Smith, chairman of the evening, yawned from ennui and nearly dislocated his jaw. Otherwise Thlnga Were O. K. Beyond Mr. Kessler's humorous speech and the effrontery of the "dragon-fighting" editor to trying reak Into the party, which he hasn't been supporting, the meeting was a rousing one and from the reports received on organization Knotts will have a good scrap on his hand when he and the Johnson men go to bat.

GARY WALTONS CATCH A MONSTER PICKEREL Twenty-Four Pound Fish Jerked from Kankakee Near Baum's Bridge. Valparaiso, Ind., Aug. 28. A pickerel weighing 24 pounds was brought into iValparaiso this morning from Baum 8 brlafre where it was captured by Em erson Bowser and D. Joe Veresh of Gary. The fine fish was viewed by many people here, who agreed that it was the largest ever caught in this vicinity. It was 40 inches In length. Tha men also had a blue catfish which tipped the scales at 16 pounds. The catch waa made last evening, after a hard day's rowing with no success. The fishermen had spent two days at the river and were tired of the sport that availed nothing. Before going to supper they left a line setting in the water. This was baited with two frogs. After .the meal they returned, and when they endeavored to lift the line a struggle began. The fish almost upset the boat. Bowser and Veresh. finally managed to get the monster to shore and dragged it up the bank. C. A. Wood, formerly of thi city, was at the river with the others, but. was not on hand when the catch, waa made. GIVE FIXE AND JAIL TERM. William A. Brockman, found guilty of operating a "blind tiger" at Tipton, will have to serve a Jail sentence and pay the fine assessed. Brockman was found guilty In the mayor's court here, but apepaled the case and asked for a change of venue. The case waa tried in the Clinton circuit court, where he was found guilty and was sentenced to thirty days in the county jail and fined $100.
