E. TE The East Chicago high school debating team trimmed up the Hammoml boys in the second debate held between the high schools on the question, "Resolved, that in the case of the amalgamation of East Chicago and Hammond, that the commission form of government should be adopted insteaf of the city manager - system." The event was held in the McKinley auditorium. East Chicago. Hammond took the afirmative and was represented by the following young men: Virgil Reiter Jr., Ellison Burke and Earl Adams. East Chicago onthe negative side was represented hy Tony Sirlin. Morris Blumenthal and Carl Anderson. The meeting was under the chairmanship of F. L. Evans, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, who in his introduction gave a short history of the progress of the government of cities. Beginning with the twentieth century the commission and city manager plans come Into prominence. The speakers on both sides of this question showed a deep study of the subject and a thorough comprehension of the principles that should underlie municipal government. They discussed efficiency, costs, democracy, partisan politics, corelation and interference of departments, checks on mismanagement, etc., with all the technique and phraseology of statesmen skilled in municipal affairs. It seemed to be the opinion of those present that in stage presence and delivery Hammond stood pre-eminent, but that East Chicago had a greater diversity of facts and arguments. The East Chicago lads knew how to ue their material to excellent advantage and while the debate was an unusually even one when it came to a final analysis, yet the vote of those who made the final decision stood thirteen to nine in East Chicago's favor. REN'SSELAER. IXD.. June 5. Gary officers arriving in this city In com pany with Deputy Sheriff John Robinson, are busily scouring the country for a fellow who is going undor the name of Steve Lutz. Lutz gave his home as Gary, but it is said that he was, or is. a resident of Nuwland, Ind., and it is for that reason that the Gary officers came to this county to look for their man. Lutz, it Is alleged, in company with others, is a brass thief, obtaining his plunder from about the Pennsylvania railroad yards in Gary. Bed clothes, tied together and fastened to a radiator, offered a means of escape for Luts from Gary hospital, where he had been confined following wounds received in a clafh with railroad detectives. Lutz obtained his freedom in spite of a close watch which had been maintained by both police and nurses. His condition was such that it was believed he cou'.d not escape unassisted and as a further precaution he was assigned to a room on the third floor. The nurses were instructed to wstch the exits. Lutz made his escape between 3 and 4 o'clock, and his absence was not discovered by the nurses uitil he had sufficient time to get several blocks away. He was clad only In a night gown and a bath rome when he made his precarious descent. The police scoured the vicinity for the fugitive. It is believed that friends awaiting outside in an automobile helped him to make his getaway. Luts was found woundel one night about a week ago when he and four companions motored to a secluded wood near Gary to claim some brass, which they had stolen from freight cars in that vicinity. They had carefully concealed their loot tut. by some

When the thieves appeared they were ordered to throw up their hands. They fled and one of the detectives fired a shotgun at them and Lutz was struck by one of the flying bullets. Deputy Robinson and the police are scouring the county today in an effort to locate the fugit ive, but at the time we go to press there was no word indicating that any trace had been found of the man. Lutz is said to go under several aliases and it is not known for certain what his right name is and about the only thing known of him is that he is known about Newland.

ecutor and Judge Greenwald named Mr. Ross. Prosecutor' Clyde Hunter, who had been assisting the Jurors, signed the document along with the iurors. Prosecutor Hunter explained that he had been unable to give his full time to the work and it was necessary that Some one else be named. A significant fact in connection with the move is that it was forecasted in a Gery newspaper, an incident that caused Mr. Hunter to make inquiries yesterday. The grand jury and Mr. Ross are expected to get down to business at once. Probably no man in Gary outside of Judge Greenwald, who served as prosecutor himself and who is not new to the experience of seeing special prosecutors . named. knows as much about gr;md jury Inquisition as Attorney Ross. Quick sailing Is now expected as far as the vice probe i:s concerned. Prosecutor Ross had already taken, a hand in the Gary vice fight. As counsel for I-. Throckmorton Gibson, whose gambling place had been closed by the police, Mr. .Ross filed several abatement suits against operators and owners of places alleged to be disorderly houses, a move that caused consternation. These cases are now pending.

Many More In Indiana Would Testify Sufferers from Misery in Back, Pains, feheumatisni, Attention!

The most eminent physicians recognize that uric acid stored up in the system is the cause of rheumatism, that this uric acid poison is present in the joints, muscles, or nerves. By experimenting and analysis at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical .Institute in Buffalo. y.. Dr. Pierce discovered a combination of native remedies that he called Anuric which drives out the uric acid from the system, and in this way the pain, swelling and inflammation subside. Many more in Indiana would testify to the merits oi Anuric as do the following: Mrs. Indiana Hunt, who resides at in W. Franklin St., Elkhart.

My back has ceased to ache, the rheumatism has disappeared and I am able to rest beautifully at night. My general health is improved and I feel most grateful for the relief I have obtained through Anuria" Mrs. Mary E. Powers of 728 Columbia St., South Bend, Ind., says: 'Some few years ago I began to go down in health, caused by having woman's weakness. I had severe backaches, pains in my side and bearing-down pains. I was in distress all the time. My whole system seemed to be affocted. I became nervous and weak, could scarcely eat or sleep.
