All of the victims were in bed when shot. Three kinds of rifle bullets were imbedded in the walls of the house. Ten or twelve shots were fired, and the difference in style of bullets led to the belief that at least three men did the shooting. Six suspects are under arrest. Citizens Make Protest.

The murders aroused great indignation through the strike zone. and big meetings of citizens were held in Calumet and Houghton today. Speakers condemned some the nonresident paid agitators for the series of crimes of which the murders today were the latest.

which he bred at his country place. La Belle KnI. at Oconomowoc. Wis. To his friends he would proudly display the ribbons his haekney and other stock had won at equine shows.

Two years ago, while at his winter residence ifl Pasadena. he dislocated a shoulder by slipping on the running bolrd of his motor car. This caused him to sell his estate and also caused a cessation of his goln rig During last summer he purchased the Highland Park residence of former Federal Judge Peter S. Crosscup. where he died.

He was a member of the following clubs: Chicago Athletic. Exmoor, Midlothian, South Shore, Union League, OefinOrnOWOC. and Chicago Yacht. Although known to but comparatively few. Mr.

Ward was lavish as well as secretive in his charities. He endowed many hospital beds under names other than his own. and for many years one charitable worker of Chicago has received from him annually an order book for 600 tons of coal. It is also related that on a visit to Niles. he found a woman who had worked for his parents ill arid about to be turned out of her borne because of a $3.400 mortgage.

He sent physicians and nurses to the woman's bedMde, and a few days later mailed her the canceled mortgage. I I PROTEST REMOVAL OF SCHOOL.

The park commissioners tried it again some years later and for the third time the SuprOne court decided in favor of Ward, this on Oct. 26, 1,1.0. The last attempt, caused by the effort to have the Field museum and John Crerar library located in Grant park by condemning the easement rights of Mr. Ward, met a similar fate more than two years ago. serve a park for the people against their will.

I doubt if I would have undertaken it. think there is not another man in Chicago who would have spent the money I have spent in this fight with the certainty that even gratitude would be denied as interest. have lived here since 1865. and have watched and assisted the city's development, but this is one of the best things I ever did for Chicago. "I Fought for the Poor." I fought for the poor people of Chicago not for the millionaires.

In the district bounded by Twenty-second street, Chicago avenue and Halsted street live more than persons. most13r poor. The city has a magnificent park and boulevard system of some tifty miles, but the poor man's auto shank's mare, or at best the street cars. Here is a park frontage on the lake, corn-paring favorably with the Bay ut Naples. which city officials would crowd with buildings, transforming the breathing spot for the poor into a showground of the educated rich.

I do not think it is right, and the highest court in the state has thrice upheld me. I have nothing at stake In this fight but the good of the people now and for future generations. Perhaps I may see the public appreciate my efforts, but I doubt it." XMAS GIFTS OF I The flpy: Gossard 310 So.

What Montgomery Ward fought for was perhaps best told in the only newspaper Interview the "watchdog of the lake front" ever granted.

which appeared in THE TRIBUNE of Oct. 27, 1'309. when the Illinois Supreme court for the third time upheld his contentions that Grant park shall be free of buildings. "It has been an uphill fight, but the victory is sweet," Mr. Ward said.

Although Montgomery Ward did not appear in court relative- to the lake front litigation until 1st0, the fight over this question was coeval with the history of Chicago starting in PsiitI. or one year before the city was incorporated. The canal commissioners platted the land east of State between Madison and Park row, and sold lots along Michigan avenue on representation the, land eastward would always remain free of buildings. This was reaffirmed in 1839.

In the early days the Illinois Central railroad was the intruder, then came baseball clubs. the exposition building, and the armories of Battery and the First cavalry, and a city dump, near the Randolph ctreet viaduct. Mr. Ward and his partners first bought Michigan avenue property in 1897, the site of the famous tower, and two years later additional lots, paying about more than usual because of the location on a park. On Oct.

PI, 1890. Montgomery Ward ezi Co. tiled suit against the city to force the removal of numerous buildings and received a favorable decision from the Supreme court in IS9t1 A wigwam housed the Democratic national convention of 1S02 on the lake front, but it was torn down.
