NEW BUILDING

FOR CALUMET A. Steady increase In the number of substantial business houses on Calumet avenue i3 evidence of the Srowinsr popularity of Hammond's "White Way" as one of the principal business thoroughfares. George Austgcn is one of the East Side boosters who sees a big future for Calumet avenue. He has just completed the- erection of a $20,000 shop and showroom includingofftccirooma upstairs at 8S3 Cal umet avenue. The building is fire- 1 proof and extends the entire length I of the lot from the nJreet front to the alley. It is twenty-fivo feet wide. 'Mi rear half provides garage ' sptfre and a light spacious work- j shop and storage. The front half i of the building: is devoted entirely ' to display and sales purposes. There is probably not another retail es- i tablishment in the state which car- j ries a more complete display of j plumbing- and heating fixtures and' supplies. In addition, carry several Mr. other Austgen Vill i well known i lines of merchandise, including Detroit Jewel gas ranges. Cadillac washers and vacuum sweepers, and j a line of water filters claimed to j be especially adapated to the chlor- J ine treated water of Hammond. In fourteen years Mr. Austgcn's business has grown from an obscure one-man plumbing and heating fhop to an establishment second to none in the Mate.

Officers Potts and Li trow of the Gary police raided the rom of Rokich in the Carl Hotel at D42 Lroadway and found two five-gallon cans of alcohol and two empty cans.

Wilson Message Proves to Be Big Political Sensation of. Day

By GEORGE R. HOLMES STAFF CORRESPONDENT -1. N. SERVICE WASHING I'Ojt, April 15 r-Wuliam Gibbs McAdoo expectg to bs a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency of 192J. Back of that simple fact, already well known to Democratic leaders here, lies one of tfce contributing causes for Woodrow .Wilson's spectacular brak with Joseph . P. Tumulty, for twelve years his secretary and most devoted follower, according to "neutral" Democrats today. , The manner in whtcn ths lntjor cently -worded "mesiK?. from Wil son" was presented to the Jefferson Day banquet by Mr. Tumulty created the Impression. Intentionally or otherwise, that the former president was endorsing the nomination of ex-Governor Cox. It was the 4sir of Mr. Wilson to "scotch" thia impression Quickly and effectively, rebuke his former secretary for presuming; to soeak for him politically, and at the time "even up an old score" which his ion Illness had heretofore prevented. SORRY FOR MiatrUVDEHSTASDrifO Mr. Tumulty bad nothing; to add today to his statement that he was sincerely sorry for the misunderstanding that had arisen between himself and his former chief. Mr. Wilson like-wise ha no more to say. The ijuiet about the secluded home In S. st. wss more pronounced than usual. Friends . of . both men said the matter couid be considered a "closed incident.';. It continued, however, to be the political sensation of Washington... Some of Mr. Tumulty's friends attributed the sensational action of the former president ; today to th "petulance of a sick man." At th S .st. house, however, Inquirers were informed today that Mr. Wilson was in better health than usual, that he would take his customary outing today and that he would occupy his usual seat !n a local vaudeville theatre tontaht. WILSON TO SrriPORT HIM , It is the gossip of Inner Democratic circles in the capital that JfeAdoo's sudden removal of his efflcial residence from N'evr York to Callfomla ls closely connected with his presidential aspirations In 134. and that two year hence he will have the support of hi father-in-law, which was lacking in 1&38. He is said to have wanted, to f-et s far away from WaShlng-ton" as possible. In the meantime, Mr. Wilson kept "hand erf" in 1920. b-Jt according; to his close friends, he was "very well pleased' when the San Francisco eon-vention selected James M. Cox. instead of W"m. G. McAdos.WHAT THE MAGPIES SAT Sick, though ho wa, and desirous cf endorsement of his pet policies, he nevertheless had political acumen enough so tTiat' that his cam was lost In 1920. long before the election and he. did not desire to see his son-in-law ;o down In th Democratic crash of that year. He had his eye en1924. if the political magpie? of the capital are t he believed. Two years hence. Mr. Wilson "believes it will . be a different story, according to those wliol-'Va.ve talked to him. By that time" the populsr clamor against the Leag-uo of Nations will, in large .measure- hare died away, ond he sincerely believes that the people generally will have become mere reconciled to this country's closer association with the other nations of the -world through the medium of the Le gue of Nations. . AI-OOP FROM SrABBI.KS Both Mr. Wilson find Ir. MeAioo are keeping .conspicuously aloof from party squabble-"-t"this time, ' even though their friends are nor. Two years more obstention will bring them. up to.lJIt with a rec ord of four years neutrality, jur. Wilson will have been so long- re moved from the White House, and Mr. McAdoo to long away from Mr. Wilson and out of the government service at that time that their friends believe the cry of "Crown Prince" and "dictation by administration" can no longer be raised against McAdoo's candidacy. The few Intimates of the former president who are more or less regular callers at the S. St. home say that Mr. Wilson has but one ambition to eee'his policies vindicated and the United States in the Leaguo of Nations, participating with other nations in the rocky climb to. perpetual peace. He eagerly seeks every scrap of information bearing oh the subject . .' . - , In this ambition he is c,uote.d, rightly or wrongly, as believing that Mr. McAdoo is the logical man to carry it to fulfillment. AND HE WAS INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEI PITTSBURGH, Pa... April 15 Charles J. Flshel, wealthy New York jeweler, was back Irr New York today telling his trouble to Police Commissioner Enright. , Fishel mt a slick crew of confidence workers at Tampa, went to Havana ant saw a chance to clean up on "inside stuff" on the races. He won $200 -000 but had to pay the $50,000 bet made for him. The ga'nr met in New York, got Fishers ff 50,000 there and sent him on to Pittsburgh tn wait for them to come along and hand him the S200.000. The gang never came here. The police here told Fishel he had been swindled bv the con men and women. So Fishel went back to Gothim last night to get the police there to help him catch the crooks.
