Conflicting Testimony Given As to Sponsors for Riotous Affair in Which Officer and Expressman Are Battered Up. The edict issued recently by the West Hammond authorities that drivers of

vehicles on State Lino street n.ust obcy!"8ion that no red flags would be per the rul-s L,f the road in the interests ofimittd i,! rarad', 0r an'where clsc

safety first and v-hii-h lias b:en enforc- i e.l by the members of Chief ,'itz's force J resulted in a riotous demonstration about five o'clock near Louglas ttrec-t. As might be expected the testimony j of witnesses to the unfortunate affair is som.hat varied and contradictory, and the tvidence of participants difu rs as to which side of the slate line they reside. It seems that an expressman named Mallcy was driving north on tate Line street. He says he was driving on the Indiana side. Officer J. L'!andov r-ki. J who was in plain clothes, says he was i driving on the Illinois side. The officer j stepped over and told ilailoy he was J utid-r arrest and when tho latter inj quired tho reason, he was told that he J would find out at the West Hammond j station. Mailoy said he would go to the West Hammond station, but according to witnesses Vlandowski climbed in the nagon, drove it cn tho Illinois side an 1 began to beat Mailoy. m J. Zeplovitz. who Lves at 36 Carroll, but runs a store on State Line and Douglas, saw the fracas and went to Malloy's assistance. The West Hammond officer then went back in his store and declares that Ulandowski told him he was going to get him. Another West Hammnod officer then came up and 'ieplovitz started to tell him of the trouble. Vlandowskl then attacked Zeplovitz and his son Abe appeared on the scene. He struck the officer in the mouth cutting his lip and bloodying his nose. Zeplovitz returned to his store, locked the door and the officer pulled a gun. j It was knocked from his hand by a i bystander but Ulandowski grabbed it .again and tired through the door just missing tho clothier. Chif Nitz, who j appeared on tho scene remonstrated with Clandow-ski but tho latter seemed I to be dazed and acted like a wild man T the meantime a soldier who has just return's irom r ranee, by tne name ot K. j. Murphy who lives at the Maje tic hotel, Hammond, also went to the a'sit.mco. of the oi l man and when the shooting started he went hick across the state line on the Indiana side.
