STEEL INDUSTRY Fl PEI Iron Age Sees No Danger ds Long as Actual Peace Negotiations Are Not Commenced No Noticeable Effects on Market Yet. The Iron Age will say today; "The om day thatha elapsed since the surprising announcement of Germany's peace proposal has shown no traceable effects in the steel market. If actual negotiations for peace should be undertaken In the near future it is conceded that the developments in the steel industry would be highly important, btrt at present the trade is dominated by the belief that at this stage no basis cf agreement can be found on which the war can soon be ended. "All calculations of domestic buyers and seller of steel have long been based, not on the Imminence of peace, but on the Indefinite continuance of the war, and the present price structure has been built up by the war. The effect on prices of actual negotiations for peace, should they come. Is not overlooked in the current discussion. "For months contracts between American steel manufacturers and the Allies hava been drawn so as to guard against an abrupt failing off in the demand for war purposes. A stipulation In some contracts is that if shell steel Is not apcifled the buyer shall take soft steel in eome form, as rails, plate or shapes. "Concerning the Steel corporation's increase of over 1,000,000 tons in orders in November, it Is stated on authority that out of nearly 2,500,000 tons booked in that month less than 10 per cent Is to be classed as export war business." CONSTABLES SWOOP ON CARD GAMES (Continued from Page One.) constable, was called In by the Gary bunch and assisted them 'in making the arrests. The men, who gave bonds for appearance in court on Saturday of this week, December 16th, are as follows: Charles Franklin. Bmil Anderson, Edward Price, W. C. Brown and John Erickson. They are charged with visiting a eramblln'g- house. Myer Hill was arrested and Is charged with running a gambling house. The sureties on the bonds were L. Sterling and L. Houtschiel. The affidavits which appear in the fiies were made by Jess Smith, who is I said to have been formerly on the po- j lice force in Gary. Another Gary constable alleged to have been in the gang making the arrests is one Catey, also an ex-policemon. Names of others could not be learned, although that of John Huber of Hammond has been frequently mentioned. Mavor Callahan, Chief of Police Bowen and business men of the Har- j bor state that professional gambling in East Chicago is a thing of the past; that there are none of the old stock of skin same gamblers left in the city; that, if any gambling at all Is going on. it is only among the penny ante fellows who play for diversion and not for money. Why, then, these raids, especially on tha part of Gary officers? It is Jark.ly hinted that the real underlying motive In this matter comes as a result of the fact that a couple of gamblers, ' who make the business a profession, were driven out of the city more than a year ago and that they have been frustrated in a recent attempt to open up a place in Indiana Harbor. It is said that these gamblers are now in Gary and that they are taking unusual means to get- back at. the. city and force a compromise

GRAND JURY PROBES GARY ELECTION INDIANAPOLIS. IXD.. Dec. H. Frank C. Dailey, 'special government prosecutor of poll frauds in the middle west, completed preparation Wednesday for resuming an inquiry ioto conditions at Gary. Corrupt politics, resulting in gross frauds at the last election, is alleged. Fifteen witnesses hare been called to testify today before the federal grand Jury in Indi anapolis. Mr. Daily visited Gary this week to obtain first hand information regarding conditions. Although he refuses to disc-u.s what he found out. it is known that many agents of the department of justice were at work in Lake county before the last election, and are continuing their investigations. Some of these agents are now in this city to adi Mr. Dailey in his inquiry. Just how long the Gary probe will last can not be predicted, the duration defending on what develops before the grand jury. Besides the witnesses call ed for Thursday. Mr. Daily has prepared a. list to ibe summoned Friday. Gary, ho-wever, is not the only place to be a subject of Investigation. Other Indiana Cities. The grand Jurors yesterday turned their attention to other Indiana cities and counties. L Ert Slack. Cnited Ftates district attorney, an dMilton W.

IT. 1LDEHHU OUT WXW'S PAY But Mayor Mitchel Vetoes Cut-Blames Tammany for Animus. XEW'TORK, Dec. 14. Vetoing substantially all the cuts made in the 1917 budget by the board of aldermen, Mayor Mitchel yesterday sent to that body a message brimming with caustic criticism. He accused the Tammany aldermen the fusionists having- voted against the cuts of ill-advised blundering and unprincipled discrimination, and asserted they were actuated by partisan motives. The mayor's message was read to the board and laid over until Dec 23, the charter providing that it must be held not less than ten days nor more than fifteen without action. Tammany has not the votes to pass the cuts over ths mayor's veto, so the budget will stand at $211,114,136.82. The aldermanie cuts amounted to $120,420, and the mavor

The mayor finds no reason was siven for the culs proposed except in the case of trupioyes of the commissioner of cftu.i?. "against whom you sec-m to have a sj.nlal animosity, quits und.:rs;;iit!abe ii the light of the history sn.l activities of thai office." Then he added: "1 find that some of the men whose increases have been disallowed, in the performance of. their duties have incurred th ? enmity of little politicians, end for this reason are doubly entitled to receive recognition for effective work." Safeads Wirt. The mayor says the tutting of the increase in the salary of the- president of the aldermen was disingenuous, and taken solely to lend apparent justification to your equally unjustifiable action in other cases. He says the fact hat William Wirt happens, to come from Indiana is no reason for cutting his allowance from $10,000 to $5,000.
