The Knights' agency will be along the lines of the Army T. M. C. A. and will co-operata with that organization, which will have Its hands full in the work ahad. Every dollar contributed to either channel will be for a worthy purpose as young men of all religions are welcomed at either center, as was the case with the troops on the Mexican herder.

i CHANGE I DRAFT FIGURES
MAYOR
CLOSES
SALOONS
C. 0. Holmes Learns This of Gary; East Chicago Unchanged. As far as the first draft is concerned there will be no remedying oir the inequalities that affect Gary and East Chicago in the draft quota. Like other communities they will get the benefit of credits for enlistments in the army and guard, but this is all. The story printed In The Times two days ago stands and is authoritative. Thb Times' Indianapolis bureau had the correct news and had It 24 hours ahead or any press association. BTaxt Draft 90 Says Ha&oa. In the second draft, which is 90 days hence it is possible that Gary may have its situation slightly changed, but as East Chicago has made no formal protest it is likely to have its figures unchanged. Another thing that concerns the Hammond-Whiting-rural Lake county exemption district is that it ets by easy on this draft, but on the second call
within 90 days, it is likely to lose to Gary and East Chicago some of the enlistment credits now given to it. This will redound particularly to East Chicago's benefit. This is a resume of local draft conditions as obtained by C. O. Holmes, chairman of board Xo. 2, who was at Indianapolis yesterday. Mr. Holmes went to Indianapolis to meet Governor Goodrich and State Conscription Agent Eschbach. While there he discussed not only the Gary, but the
East Chicago and Lake county situa-J
tions as well. Draft figures and credits were fixed as follows for the first call: Gary: 214 army enlistments and 136 guard enlistments, total. 351 credits to be deducted from quota of 812, leaving net quota of 461 men. East Chicago, 21 army enlistments and 93 guard enlistments, total 114 credits; quota 517 men, net quota 402 men. Lake county districts (Hammond-Whiting-Crown Point and rural Lake county): 694 enlistments in army and 78 enlistments in guard; quota 726 men, net quota 53 men. It was learned that Gary and East Chicago claim more army enlistment credits than they have received. In consequence an audit is to be made and if it is found that any Gary and East Chicago-Indiana Harbor men enlisted at Hammond office and were not credited to these districts any ineqdallties will be remedied on the next draft. And of course the Hammond-Lake county district will have to supply an extra man for each one taken away from its enlistment credits by the revised quota. Xast Chicago's Case. Roughly speaking East Chicago Is hit hardest in the draft. It is said that if East Chicago has any inequalities it isn't aomplaining about them. No Oradlt For Naw Army Enlistments. No credit will be given to any community for the enlistment pf drafted men, It Is said. However, . the army needs men and It needs them badly and that is why it is trying to build up its strength as quickly as possible.
STORE IS ROBBED. Mrs. S. Friedman who runs a department store at 4837 Alexander avenue. East Chicago, reported to the police at about 2 o'clock this morning that her store had been broken into and robbed. Officers Muha and Wikswo responded and found that a front window light had been broken and some clothing taken. Mrs. Friedman could not check up accurately but she knows that three suits of clothes and three or four pairs of shoes were stolen. Thus far the police are without clues.
Mayor Callahan of East Chicago, took a firm hand in the strike situation yesterday afternoon when he ordered all the saloons south of the B. & O. tracks and east of the canal to be closed indefinitely. In the afternoon a meeting of strikers and strike sympathizers was held at Columbia hall to talk over the situation, and at that meeting the mayor made a very wholesome and lasting impression in a talk which he gave b. fore thoi-e assembled. He deprecated the high cost of living and the spirit of unrest that seemed to be responsible in part for the strike. He said that he had no sympathy, however, with the acts of violence and the apparent disregard for law and order shown by some of the men the night before. He said that it was the duty of the city authorities to protect life and property Id every wav possible, and that the resources of h city, and the state if need be, wouid be utilized to their full extent to suppress any disturbance and obtain peaceful coiv ditions for the citizens and all concerned. He pleaded with the strikers
to make every efTort to come to a satisfactory understanding with the ofticlals of the Graaselll Chemical company and to return peacefully to work. It is said that the prompt action of the city police, assisted by the Hammond officers and the appearance of the national guard, together with the mayor's talk. Induced quite a number to return to work last night and this morning at the compromise increase or two cents an hour on the wage seal. It is believed that most of the men will be back In the plant by tonight and that the trouble is practically ov;r. Yesterday the plant and the enclosure quickly took on the appearance of a military camp. About 150 men. under orders of acting Major Hannon. took their shelter tents and pitched them in the plant yards near the office. Every part of the industry wa guarded by squads of soldiers. Guards patrolled the road in front of the plant and ordered pedestrians and automobiles to keep moving. Military precision and authority were in evi dence everywhere. The battalion of soldiers will remain in charge of the plant, and the saloons will remain closed until every indication of possible trouble disappears. The firmness and promptness with which this situation has been handled, the complete protection of the persons and property of the Grasselli Chemical company, and the quelling of the disturbance, which looked serious for a time, without the shedding of blood, is a credit to all who were in any way responsible for the manner in which the affair has been handled.

Philadelphia, Pa." One year ago I was very sick and I suffered with pains
im my side and back
until I nearly went crazy. I went to differentdoctors and they all said I had female trouble and would not get any relief until I would be operated on. I had suffered f orf our years before this time, but I kept getting worse the mora
medicine I took. Every month since I was a young girl I had suffered with cramps in my sides at periods and was never regular. I saw your advertisement in the newspaper and the pictura of a woman who had been saved from an operation and this picture was impressed on my mind. The doctor had given me only two more days to make up my mind so 1 sent my husband to the drug store at once for a bott.ie of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and believe me, I soon noticed a change and when I had finished the third bottle I was cured and never felt better. I grant you the privilege to publish my letter and am only too glad to let other women know of my cure. ' " M rs. THOS. McGon"GAL, 422 Hartville Street. Pbila., Pa.
