GREEN B. RAuM.

Green B. Raum, of the Internal Revenue
service, wants to be a senator from this
state, and he labors under the impression
that his long tenure as officer of the
federal government eminently qualities
him for United States senatorship. He
takes occasion to visit different parts of
the state as an internal revenue agent, and
while thus employed, he makes speeches
for himself He will visit this city next
Saturday and ''the truly royal will go
through the farce of asking him to deliver
a public address. As he comes to this
city for that purpose, there is no doubt
but what he will oblige the suffering
citizens of Rock Island by talking to them.
Mr.. Raum does not possess as fine a voice
as Senator Logan. but otherwise he is as
well qualified to become a senator as the
stalwart who now represents the state in the
national legislature.

Monday afternoon the directors of the

Office of Guyer s. Kinnaird. The only
business transacted was the allowing of
bills. All of the .'T'' rail for the line has
arrived The track out to Black Hawk
watch tower was completed this afternoon,
as large force of men was at work during
the day laying the trick to that point. The
tram rail to be used between the Rock river
bridge has not yet arrived, but is expected
during the present week. The cars are
also expected within few days, and on
their arrival, the line viii be opened to the

MoLD1Na EXTRAORDINARY.

1t has been truthfully said that the mod
ern newspaper is the molder of public
opinion, but if the modern newspaper were
to get deliberately to work it couldn't be-
gin to mold such an evening of solid recre-
alton and fun as was enjoyed by the iron
molders of Rock Island and Moline last
evening at the gymnasium in the rear of
Turner Hall.
Stripped of all unnecessary preface, it is
known to the readers of the ARGUS that a
few days ago the Iron Moulders' Union, of
this city, extended an invitation to their
Moline brethren to meet them in social
way last evening. Accordingly nearly a
hundred of the sinewy workers in iron
came over from Moline at an early hour,
and after joint business session in the
Union rooms all repaired to the Gymnasi
UNI, where all hands had more genuine fun
than can ordinarily be condensed into one
evening. The programme, which was
quite largely of an informal character. was
made up of song, speech, anecdote and
feasting, and it was well on toward mid
night before the last hearty vocalization
echoed through the hall.
Treating of such happy affair, par
ticipated in men who know the full value of
a few hours of sensible recreation, it were
worse than folly to attempt to present an
array of names. Each of the Rock Island
molders was ahost and as such he made it
pleasant for the Moline boys. who went
home most favorably impressed with what
they had seen and experienced of the hos
pitalitv of the Rock Island folks. At no
distant day the molders expect to have
another joint sociable, but it is difficult to
see how that of last evening can be i'm
proved upon.

CRIMINAL MENTION.

Fritz Won Rando was the fashionable
name which graced the records of Police
Magistrate Choppers court this morning.
Fritz was not up for playing the foreign
nobleman game by marrying some I'M
sophisticated damsel and then stealing her
diamonds, but his charge was OF very
unromantic character. He was accused OF
being vagabond The police testified
that he was a common loafer, who
freouented saloons, and never drew a
sober breath Fritz denied the allegations
and maintained that he was a hard worker
He admitted that he, once in while, par
took of the amber colored beverage, known
as beer, but refuted the statement that he
was always drunk. The court sent him to
the county bastile, where he will tarry for
the next twenty days.

CIRCUIT COURT.

This morning in the circuit court, the
case OF the people against George Wagner
was taken up for trial. The defendant is
charged with assaulting Christian Giphart,
and infiicting injuries upon his body. A
jury was empaneled, and the testimony
submitted. Mr.. Parmenter appealed for
the people. and Oliver Olson for the de-
Tense. It is thought that the case will
be given to the jury during the afternoon,
and it is not regarded as very impor
tant suit.
Tomorrow morning the assault to muir
der case of George w. Filth from Whiteside
county, will be taken up for trial. A num-
Der of witnesses from that county are now
in attendance at court, and considerable
interest is manifested in the proceedings.
The case win occupy two or three days.

FIRE.

Last night the alarm of fire was caused
by the burning of a shed attached to the
old water works building near the Buford
Pillow Works The flames were discovered
by the Waterman of the pillow works and
Joseph Myer who lives in that locality.
The members of the Plow Shop Hose Com
pany and of Phoenix Hose Company were
soon on the spot and had stream play
ing on the burning building, and in few
minutes the fire was extinguished But
for the early discovery of the flames a
serious confagration would doubtless have
taken place. The fire originated from
some slack left on the ground. The loss
will not exceed so. The shed was owned
by the city, and was formerly used to store
coal for the water works.

INSANE

The case of Miss Annie Maucker, of
South Rock Island, who was adjudged in
sane, Monday afternoon in the county
court, was of a more interesting nature
than generally attaches to petitions of that
character. The young lady is some twenty
four years of age and has only been suffer
ing from mental disturbance some four
DAYS. She was engaged to be married and
the engagement was broken of. The fact
seemed to depress her greatly, and constant
brooding over the unhappy subject caused
her to become insane. Her insanity is OF
a melancholy turn, and is believed to be
only of q temporary character. The fol
lowing jury was impaneIed to investigate

Malone and Dyson.

Second Auditor ii. ii. Dyson has pub
lished in the Whiga card OF denial OF a
part of bis published evidence in the Ken
dali case. He does not refer specially to
the Dispatch, but he says the ''eity daily
papers" did him (unintentlonally, perhaps
an ;nius,ice by reporting him "as calling
United states Senator Malone lobbyist"
Dyson says:
81 deem 1t unnecessary 10 repeat my
language used on that occasion. Suffice it
to say that did not use any such language
as was reported"
The language used in the Dispatch re-
port reads, Dyson speaking:
al don't know that ought 10 call IL in
euence. but General Malone il another
who talked 10 me. 1t may have been le-
Ultimate on his part. He spoke OF the SUI
perior quality OF the American Bdnk-Note
Company's work."
"Then you term Malone lobbyist?"
ayes, sir"
The Dispatch reporter yesterday morn
ing called upon Police-Justice Richardson,
who presided at the Kendall examination,
produced the report of the trial. called the
Justices attention TO the paragraph above
quoted from the report OF the proceedings,
and asked the Justice what his recollection
OF the affair was. He said the report was
substantially correct; that according TO his
recollection Mr.. Dyson hestated in giving
his testimony, and that in reply TO the
question, "Then you term Malone lob
Lyist"? he thought Dyson said, "Well, |
suppose you may term him So"
Captain John ;. Wise, who was present
during the examination, replied to ques-
ton from the reporter that he thought the
report substantially correct" He de-
clared that il Dyson did not use the exact
language imputed TO him the words used
by him were equally as well calculated TO
leave the imI sion that he called General
Malone n lobbyist.
Mr.. Beverly I. Crump ieso heard the
evidence OF Mr.. Dyson. Let any one
interested ask him what it was. There are
many others TO whom the Dispatch might
refer for corroboration OF the report
published, il, indeed, any further proof
of itstruth Is needed beyond what already
has appeared, together with the following
from Mr.. Samuel B. Witt. Commonwealth
attorney for the city.
Mr.. Witt SAYS:
During the examination OF the Kendall
affair before the Police Justice ] conducted
the examination for the Commonwealth,
and remember distinctly Mr.. Dyson's
charges against both Captain Rogers and
General Malone, to the effect that both
were lobbyists. A gentleman was sitting
by Inc at the time, and remarked that II
he were in Captain Rogcrs's place he
would crack Dyson's head" and replied
"Yes. have always differed from Gen
eral Malone politically, but il seems pretty
hard luck that man who had derived as
much help from Malone a Dyson has
should now dcnouncc him a. a lobbyist
