CAUSE FOR CONFIDENCE IS PUZZLING

Says Farmers and Organized Labor Are Botn Out For Him TIMES BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL! INDIANAPOLIS, IND.. Oct. 13 It was learned this week that exGovernor Samuel XI. Ralston, democratic nominee for United States senator. Is telling- some of his Intimate friends that he is going to be elected to the senate. Since Mr. Ralston is about the only person who is optimistic over the democratic chances, his reasons for believing he Is going- to win give an interesting sidelight on the campaign. Mr. Ralston, according to a friend who talked over the campaign with the nominee recently, said he is sure he will defeat Albert J. Beveridge, the republican nominee. Mr. Ralston, according to his interviewer, based his belief on the grounds that he will receive the support of organized labor, farmers and persons said to be dissatisfied with the republican national administration. "Wh.'le Mr. Ralston is apparently carried away with enthusiasm for his own campaign, other persons in close touch with the situation are practically unanimous In preducting .the return to the senate of exSenator Albert J. Beveridge, the republican nominee. Mr. Beveridge is wasting no time In idle statements concern'ng his chances to win, but Is going before the people with a message that Is arousing admiration in every section of the state. The truth of the matter Is, the Ralston campaign has failed to stir a ripple of enthusiasm In Indiana while Beveridge has created an unusual amount of Interest In the election for an "off yiar when no national tickets are in the field. Republican leaders are much pleased with the work of Senator James E. Watson In behalf of the republican ticket. Watson is making a whirlwind speaking tour of the state and has given his wholehearted support to the election of Beveridge. Marlon county republican factionel differences, which have threatened to result in some friction in the party machinery here, have all been burled, according to republican leaders. Clarence R. Martin, chairman of the Republican state speakers bureau, announced this week that Mayor Lew Shank, of Indianapolis, and ex-Mayor Charles "W. Jewett, who have been heads of opposing republican fractions here, have both taken the stump in behalf of Beveridge. With leaders of all factions of the party working unitedly for Beveridge here, Marion county Is expected to roll up a substantial majority for Beveridge and the entire state ticket. Republican leaders were much pleased with the final results cf the registration of voters In Indiana. Belief was expressed that the republican strength registered far exceeds the democratic voters. With this situation, it was pointed ut, the work of the organization will now be directed toward getting out the vote on election day, which. It was said, will Insure a republican victory. k VACANT LOT An acquaintance for a term of years with O'.d Man Earleycorn followed by a heavy doie of moonshine are said to have been . important factors played in ths death of Andrew McBarren, 65 years old, whose lodjrwas found In a vacant lot near 3610 WatlUijr at., Indiana Harbor, yesterday. A passerby on his way from work ran upon the body of the man huddled in the waste sands and weeds on "Watling st. and notified the Harbor police station. The f body was taken to the. Burns-McGuan Undertaking parlors, where itw-as Identified as that of Andrew McBarren. The old gentleman is said to be single and to have had no permanent address in Indiana Harbor for several yaars.

CHIEF HAS E OM HIS MIND Strict enforcement of the traffic regulation making 15 miles an hour the maximum speed in the business district was agreed upon last night by the board of safety and instructions to that effect were transmitted to Chief Bunde. Beginning tomorrow that district bounded by the Monon tracks on the north and Carroll street on the south; Hohman street on the west and Calumet on the east, for the purposes of this regulation will be considered "congested territory" with the maximum speed limit 15 miles an hour. Chief B'jnde has assigned several motorcops to operate exclusively in this district. Violators will be prosecuted he assured the board last night. The chief called attention also to flagrant violations of the parking ordinance by Jitney operators who crowd "no -parking" zones and await arrrval of passengers. He issued a warning to them to observe the law more closely. Jitney operators came In for more censure when complaints wrere registered against them for stopping in the midd'.e of the block, in the center of the street, to load and unload passengers. Some Jitneys it was pointed out also were operating without any sign on the windshield. This Is in violation of the city ordnance regulating Jitneys Most of the offenders were found to be "independent" operators as contrasted with those belonging to a Jitney "association. Chief Bunde wishes to call attention of down-town men to the habit of many stores to sweep all the refjae into the street. Sidewalk cycling Is another t)vi that is growing In Hammond, the chief said. He has given Instructions to his patrolmeri to warn one and arrest on later provocation, bicycle riders who make the sidewalks their highways. SAVE THE BREWERY In spite of the fact that It " was midnight the word spread through West Hammond tliat the brewery there was on fire, the scene became crowded with volunteer fire fighters Police had to form lines to keep back the excited populace, anxious to lend whatever aid they could. Most of them lined up ax the exits whence beer kegs and vats are being hustled out before the advance of the devastating flames. Fire apparatus from Hammond was summoned when the blaze which started In the engine room threatened to get the better of the West Hammond department. The fire damaged the engine room, burning off the roof and destroying machinery. How the fire started could not be ascertained. Grave fears were felt at first that low water pressure would force firemen to hook their hose to beer vats and spray the blaze with the amber fluid. A lull in the activities of the hosemen at one point gave rise to the rumor among the watchers that In fact the water had run out and beer was about to bo shot Into the flames. When the hose swelled again and the liquid spurted out toward tho flames the maddened people made a rush to divert the flow toward themselves. Police, interferred and assured them the hoe' contained nothing but water. EAST CHICAGO BOY ADMITTED TO BAR Frank E.

SPECIAL TO THE TIMES1 CROWN POINT, Ind., Oct. 13. Tony Wagoner, Whiting motorcycle cop. was found not guilty of the charge of assault and battery which had been Hied against him in the Criminal court by Louis Goldman of Gary. Judge Smith heard the ca.e yesterday. On Labor Day Wagoner arrested Goldman for speeding and because of difficulties which were experienced in getting the Gary man to the station, a disorderly conduct charge was also lodged against him. Goldman filed an affidavit against Wagoner in the criminal court charging that Wagoner assaulted John L. Foley Drives At High Speed Head on Into G. And I. Car His skull fractured, arms and legs badly cut and suffering serious internal injuries, John L. Foley. 23 year old tobacco salesman and a popular Hammond young man, this morning at ten minutes past midnight, was removed from the wreckage of the automobile he had driven head-on into a east bound Gary interurban street car on Sibley st. near Sohl, Hammond. Foley, speeding west on Sibley st., drove directly into tho path of the approaching car. The impact was terrific. Foley's light tobacco delivery truck was demolished. He himself was crushed in the twisted mass of wood and steel.' Tho motor of the flivver was pushed backward into the area of the front seat. The police, responding to the call, arrived a few minutes after the accident. Dr. B. W. Chidlaw, who happened to be at the station at the time the call came in, rushed young Foley to the hospital. There an X-ray examination disclosed a fractured skull. Until late today, Foley remained in a coma. He .was revived but his condition was reported still critical. His mother, father and two sisters have remained at his beds'de. James llayden and Loza Jolliff, crew of the street car, were unable to enlighten police with details of the accident. Hayden, motorman, said his first Intimation of the approaching catastrophe was when Foley's car suddenly loomed up ahead out of the dark and crashed full tilt into the car. Foley is employed as a tobacco salesman working out of the Chicago office of the American Tobacco Co. Police heard there was a second man In the car at the time of the accident. They were unable to verify this rumor. STATE NOT TO ACT IN E INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE INDIA.NAPOUS, Oct. 16 That the state is powerless to act In regard to the affidavits of three men held at Gary, Ind., in connection with the wreck of the Michigan Central "Million Dollar" express, in which I is charged "third degree" methods were used to force "confessions" from them, was the opinion expressed here today by C. Oliver Holmes of Gary, who obtained the affidavits. In view of tbe fact that the Lake county grand jury failed to return Indictments against any of the Gary police officios after hearing evidence from the three suspects, it is improbable that the state will take action, Mr. Holmes said. No announcement of action on the part of the state legal department was forthcoming and It is considered likely the governor will abandon any idea of Interfering in the case. LAXITY AT VALPO STIRS ATTY GENERAL INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE IM-IANAt'Ui-iS, Oct. 16. Attorney General U. S. Lesh today ordered Sam McNaught, special deputy, to leave for Valparaiso to conduct an investigation of alleged liquor law violations and reported laxity of officials in handling the situation.

him in the police station, knocked him down and kicked him while he was lying on the floor. He testified to that effect in court yesterday and other people who had been in the Goldman machine told similar stories. Because of the excitement attending the arrest many menbers of the police and fire department as well as other citizens were attracted to the police station and were also witnesses to what transpired. These were all at Crown Point yesterday and their testimony was quite contrary to that of Goldman. The court decided In favor of the motorcycle cop.

C. OF COMMERCE TO BE OF SERVICE TO JONES-LAUGHLIN CO. Following reorganization and a membership drive tho Hammond Chamber of Commerce will get busy on the Jones and Laughlin deal, it was stated today. State Auditor Oliver who is seeking to collect $155,000 for the state on submerged Lake Geo-ge land, has delayed final consummation of the deal whereby the Jjjies and i jLaughlin Steel Co. of Pittsburgh, will obtain deed to more than a tnousand acres of land on the north side of Hammond as the site for a steel mill. Oliver's action ha? been denounced as a move to make political thunder for a campaign for governor. Meantime the uncertainty that marks the entire satisfaction Is occasion for worry on the. part of the cities of the region. Location of a thirty million dollar Industry Is threatened by the auditor's determination to extort money for the state on land that was sold to the East Chicago Company at the customary price for submerged land, $25 an acre. The fact that the land had no value until th East Chicago Company built a canal at Its own expense and gave it to the government, appears to have no weight with the auditor. Any value which the land at the bottom of Lake George may haive today Is due to the canal. What action the Hammond Chamber of Commerce Intends to take is not kno-w-n but it will do all in Its power to assist the Jones & Laughlin Company In settling the case. Every Inducement will be made to the company to carry out Its plans for a Hammond plant. Although there has been no Indication that the Jones & Laughlin people have any intention of abandoning the plans for a plant here, the Cham ber of Commerce does not propose to permit obstacles to stand in the way. GAINST FALSE INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE SUMMIT VI LLE, i:0., Oct. 13 While ,it is true the present state administration is spending money, yet it is being spent for things that could not be put off wtihout practicing falne economy, Governor Warren T. MoCray declared here this afternoon In his first political speech of tho 1922 campaign. The governor will speak at Anderson tonight. Governor McCray exhibited charts showing that 88 cents out of every dollars paid in taxes is controlled by local officials and of the 12 cents controlled' by the state, most of it is sent back to the counties or expended for them in caring for persons sent by them to state institutions. The "pay-as-you-go" plan of highway construction followed by Indiana, now enables the state to develop a permanent highway system, paid for In full at a cost equal to the interest charges that will have to be paid by some other states, he said. TOLLESTON BANKRUPTCY Voluntary petition In bankruptcy was filed today by the Tolleston Ice & Coal Co., in the federal court at Hammond. The corporation has coal sheds and other buildings on a strip of Michigan Central land at Connecticut St., in Gary.

Tho plot to wreck the fast express on the Michigan Central railroad which resulted in the killing of the engineer and fireman near the city of Gary, was laid in Gary. This Is tho i opinion of several of the members of the Lake county grand jury , which investigated the crime. j This or-Inion or th gand jurors i is based on the statement of a man ; who told several officials of tin; county and who is presumed to have : given the same testimony before the I grand jury, that money had been offered him to take, part in the wrecking of the fast train on the morning of Aug. 20, 1S22. ! The name of this man is carefully guarded by the persons to whom he made the statement because they believe that event'. ally they will, through him, be able to apprehend the arch conspirators in the crime, and they are afraid also that if his Identity becomes known that he will be murdered. The investigation of the wrecking of the train was made by members of the Gary police department and the police department of Chicago. The first persons investigated by thel Gary police department were Mike Huvos and G-eorge Sabo of Gary. These men made affidavits-that they were held up by plain clothes men connected with the department of police at Gary and suffered the third degree. Euros testified In an affidavit he gave to C. Oliver Holmes, state senator from Iake county, that he was taken to the police head quarters in Gary by three plain clothes men, om - of whom Is a Slavish policeman. The officers surrounded him and one of them struck him reratedly in the face with a blackjack, he says. He was beaten, his affidavit says. In order to make him confess ihat he had a part in the wrecking of th train. He was kept in the police station, his affidavit said, until his two children. Anna and Joe, came to police headquarters and convinced the police officers that their father w-as at home the night the train was wrecked and he was then released. Sabo, In an affidavit also given to Senator Holmes, said that he was arrested In the street by three plain clothes men and taken to a cell upstairs at the police headquarters. He testified in hi? affidavit that one of the officers brat him severely with a piece of rubber hose, fourteen inches long, and that another officer struck him repeatedly on the knee with a railroad spike. He testified In his affidavit that the officers threatened to shoot him and made preparations to hang him in order to make him confess that he took part In the train wrecking. After he had been kept at the police station for several hours he was released. The affidavits of Buros and Sabo were forwarded to Warren T. McCray, governor of Indiana, by Senator Holmes, and are now being investigated by U. S. Lesh, attorney general. Senator Holmes is getting other affidavits of third degree methods by the Gary police but the two in possession of Governor McCray arc the only ones that bear on the wrecking of the Michigan Central train. Additional affidavits. It is understood, will be forwarded shortly to the governor by Senator Holmes. The Lake county grand jury Investigated the charges made in these affidavits but returned no indictments against- the Gary police for assault and battery. The grand jury also investigated the story told by Duros and Sabo but their testimony added rcthlng toward the apprehension of the train wreckers.

Phillip Ukman 'Stool Pigeon' Case Brings Up New Accusations

Charges -f "framing" on the part of the Gary police which were first heard when FhiUp Ukman, "stool pigeon" of Pert Morgan's federal agents, was arrested on a charge of bribery and which were not refuted by the Lake county grand jury, are; heard again from two sources thi week. On the same day Ukman was released from Jail under bond, following his indictment for forgery, bi father-in-law, Ella Viator, was rrested. Police visited his home th night and carried away a quant it of liquor which they said they found in the attic. First Viator claimed that he did not rent the attic. H said it was retained by his landlord who lived in the basement. Then Viator's daughter made tha astounding statement that when she heard the jacket the police were making In ascending tho attla stairs, which are at the rear of tha house, she opened a door on tha back porch and saw cne of the policemen going up stairs. Under his coat tails, she says, she plainly saw two bottles of liquor. Other officers had preceded him. Then they cama down with the moonshine, Henca the charge that the police "framed" the raid and "planted" the liquor in order to bring Ukman Into disrepute. Now comes Gaspare Monte, who Is listed as one of the government's witnesses in the conspiracy case against Judge William Dunn and Attonrey Blaz Lucas. The other day an Italian lawyer of Gary called Monto and asked him to go on the bond of a young Italian who had been arrested by the police. Monte remonstrated but the fellow-countryman appeal was strong. He was told that the man would be given a hearing the following morning in police court so the bond would be posted for only a day. He consented. The bond was $2,000. Next morning Monte appeared ati the city court and was told that the' violator had failed to appear and from Information received he had left the state. Monte was further Informed that his $2,000 bond had been forfeited. This procedure Is unusual In Lake county. Technically th bond should have been forfeited on the man's failure to arpear. But It Isn't being: done that way. A bondsman is generally given s-omo time In which to get his man back into the stata and often such a matter will drag along for a year without a forfeiture being made. And besides, the prosecutor has the power on his own motion to have the bond set aside. The circumstances of course are to be considered. Monte has already taken, the matter up with federal officials In Hammond but no intimation has been made as to what course the government will pursue If any in behalf of the bondsman. i BY INJUNCTION 1 11 V LLETIX) By W.
