EAST PRUSSIAN WAR CALAMJTIK PICTURED German Sympathizers Raise, Fund Following Judge Nippert's Lecture.

"You rem! iho complaint of the Kiiklish government through our embussy at Berlin that F.nglish prisoners were .i. prived of soap and that their food Wiis scant. Did you at the same time ! :ui of seventeen thousand llerinan prisoners in a Kussian prison ramp permitted to die like so many dgs. ami llu ir bodies carried out like cord wood?" Such and many more were the conir.'ifls that Judge Alfred K. Nippert of Cincinnati portrayed in his lecture in As.sembly Hail, Sunday night, speaking uncr tlie auspices of the Cerman American alliance for Fast Prussian relid". He spok- of first, hand experl- , iicns- his inability to buy soap in Berlin with American (fold and the terrible ;ud;y in the story an Kast Prussian woman, an inmate in an old ladies' ! 'i. je. who told of a nipht in the early l:is of the war. when the Russian oossa ks in their devastating raids spared none of the feeble old ladies in that Institution. He had volumes of evidence of cossaek brutality gathered first-hand on his trip abroad. Jle spoke to an audinicc of five hundred, mainly Germans of

Hammond, who knew the stories, but gave him breathless attention because he related them as an eye witness. He spoke for more than two hours and at the conclusion of his address and that of Kev. Fran,: Von Schubert a venerable Wiikesbarre. Pa., minister who followed him. the audience raised three hundred

dollars for the German American fund;

to rebuild the district of Itagnit in Cast Prussia. The Lake county alliance already has rebuilt a two family dwelling at Niebenburg at a cost of two thousand dollars. The speaker paid a high tribute to the mothers of all the nations in the war as the real heroines. They remarked forcefully on the American sentiment which raises a hue and cry about Germany's deportation of able-bodied men from Belgium to Germany to work aloiiK side German workmen at their pay, the cossack deportation of 12,000 mothers and children into the forest? of Russia and Siberia. The arrangement committee learned too late that the fire ordinance forbid

moving pictures in Assembly hall and F. C. Jliller. presiding, announced that) these pictures which were advertised! will be shown in a Hammond theater at

a very small cost in the very near future.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE A PUZZLE (Continued from page one.) among the Senate Democrats as they had expected, and they are now working on Republicans to get some of them lined up against it. It is claimed that eight Senate Democrats will vote for prohibition, while not more than four or five Republicans will vote against it. The anti-prohibition forces have sent calls o bankers in various cities of the state to come here and help to defeat Cie prohibition bill. These bankers, it is said hold large amounts' of brewery securities, and these would be Jeopardized by the passage of the prohibition bill. These bankers are expected to arrive today aud help the brewers to defeat the bill. It is expected that the senate committee on rights and privileges, which has the woman suffrage bill In charge, will make a favorable report on the bill, but this Is not certain. It is known that there are at least three, and possibly four, of the seven members against it. The commitee is composed of Senators Dobyns. of Greensburg; Lanz, of Bodford; Smith, of Knox, and Kinder, of Gary. Republicans, and Krskine, of Kvansville; Hazen, of Booneville, and VanAuken. of Auburn, Democrats. Kinder, Hazen and Krskine are known to be opposed to woman suffrage to such a degree that nothing could induce them to vote for it. Lanz is counted as doubtful and no one appears to know where VanAuken stands. Put in any event, the bill -will be brought out of the committee and threshed out on the floor of the senate, for Lieutenant Governor Bush has announced that he does not propose to permit any bill to die in committee. If any committee refuses to report a bill either way he says he will see that the bill is taken from that committee and given to another, or that he will refer it to the committee of the whtde, so that ltj may get a fair hearing an3 a fair chance. The forces that are fighting against prohibition are seeking to bring about a vote on the constitutional convention proposition before they allow a vote to be taken on prohibition. They say if they can accomplish this they can then elect enough wet delegates to a convention to keep prohibition cut of the revised constitution. But the dry forces say they will not permit this problem

to be carried out. They declare they

"Her Money Troubles" They get more vexatious as the cost of foods climbs skyward. Meat, eggs and vegetables are almost beyond the family purse. Happy is the housewife who knows Shredsled Wheat, its low cost and its high food value. A better balanced ration than meat or eggs and costs much less. Two Shredded Wheat Biscuits with milk or cream make a complete, perfect meal, supplying all the nutriment needed for a half day's work at a cost of a few cents. Delicious for any meal with milk or cream, or with stewed fruits. Made at Niagara Falls, N. Y.

will force a vote in both houses on prohibition, and they hope to put it across before a vote is taken on a constitutional convention. Therefore, it looks like a red-hot t,;ht. The constitutional convention bill probably will pass the senate, as well as the house, because the pressure of the recommendations by both Governor Ralston and Governor Goodrich in their messages probably will cause enough members of both parties to vote for it to pass it. But the drys says this will not be enough to satisfy them. They want the statutory prohibition along with it. It is reported that two or three Democrats in the senate will probably vote to pass the bill to abolish the state oil Inspection department when it conies over from the house, although they voted a few days ago to kill a senate bi'l on the same subject. Some of them have learned that their action in opposing Governor Goodrich's program of economy for political party reasons has not been popular in the state. Representative Eikenberry has introduced in the house a bill which would legalize circus, theatrical and moving

We know nothing of the basis upon which the British bids were made, but the public is entitled to know the facts upon which we ourselves bid for this work. Two year ago we took contracts to make 4,200 14-inch shells at a price of $1,515,000 (with heavy penalties for delayed delivery). Despite the fact that all our experience and facilities have been strained to fulfill these contracts, up to now not a single shell has been accepted bv the Government, although, on the work
