A flashy and loud looking young fellow
arrived 10 Davenport last week and put up
at first-class hotel. He was soon observ-
ed to be very generous in the way he 'set
'em up at certain saloon in town. He
seemed to have plenty of the ''rhino," and
wanted to get rid of it as quick as possible.
The next morning after his arrival an in
nocent looking, country appearing man
about fifty years of age arrived in the city
also and made tour of the saloons of the
city, taking cigar and settler occasion.

fiashy individual was. when, without any
words, he went directly to him, laid his
hand gently on his shoulder, and softly
whispered, Ned, its up; let's go back to
Cincinnati. The countryman was de-
tective. Ned" was young man respect
ably connected, and a bookkeeper 10 a

disappeared from there two weeks ago, and
by a singular coincidence, $4,7OO disap-
peared at the same tune. Detectives had
been on his track since, following him to
Pittsburgh, New York, Chicago land finally
to Davenport, where he was ''bagged. -
The countryman took off a wig and false
whiskers. as soon as he laid hands on the
young man, whose name he said was Chas.

fifty to one hundred cars Of grain at points
west, with the idea Of receiving the same
here and transferring it to the p, u r |.
cars, and SO shipping at cheap Rates to
Peoria and other places But the new ar
rangement has failed; their scheme, and
they are out Of pocket. The jump from I
cents per 100 TBS. to lS cents per l6O lbs,
freight from Davenport to Peoria throws
the reward for their enterprise to, profit
and especially to loss. Then to add
to their misfortune the prices of grain have
declined, and millers and other heavy buy.

of the grain dealers resident here suffer
