A BAD FALL.

James Renfro, of this city, who is en-
gagged as q travelling salesman for the
wholesale house of Merritt s. Donaldson,
met with quite serious accident while at
Council Bluffs last Monday.
He, in company with companion, w as
out riding. The horse became frightened
at some passing object and attempted toFun
away. The animal made down the street
at furious rate, and came very near col
liding with team of horses att lched to a
wagon coming in the opposite direction,
The horse was turned out, and the buggy
wheels coming in contact with the curb
ing, upset the vehicle and threw the occu
pants on the sidewalk.
Mr. Renfro struck the pavement, his
head coming in contact with the sharp cor
ners of one of the stones. His head was
badly hurt, the fall infiicting severe cash
over his eye and forehead. He was taken
to the hotel where his wounds were dress
ed
Last Wednesday he was sent to his home
in this city, and arrived ON Thursday. He
is not dangerously injured, but his wounds
will necessitate his remaining in the house
for several days.

ROCK IsLANn LEYEE.

The levee at this point is becoming noted
among steamboat men who have occasion
to make landings at this city, and they are
all severe in their denunciation of the poor
facilities which are afforded them to tran
sact business
They claim that it is almost an impossi-
bility to make landing without endanger-
ing the boat, as the lower rock constitu-
ting the levee is not adaptsd for that pur
pose.
Captain Dawson. of the Mary Morton,
stated yesterday that the Rock Island levee
was considered the most dangerous and
poorest of any landing between st. Louis
and St. Paul. He had heard number of
steamboat men, captains and pilots, ex-
press the same opinion about the levee,
and they all experienced some surprise that
its condition should have remained so long
without improvement
The river men state that there is fully
$4,000 of the appropriation made for the
harbor that has not been expended. They
believed that the engineer department was
awaiting lower water in order to effect the
needed repairs, but they were equally pos
tive that something should be done at once
to enable boats to reach this city without
running over stones and other dangerous
Instructions.

FIREMEN.

A meeting of the members of the differ
emit hose companies will be held at the
Wide Awake house this evening, when a
decision will be, reached on the time for
holding the annual parade and inspection
of the fire department.
The usual date for such parade has been
the latter part of May but it was generally
understood the present year that the 4th OF
July would be the time designated for such
event There has been some opposition to
that day, and the meeting has been called
this evening to adjust all difficulties and
arrange on convenient day.
A number of Rock Island firemen will
visit the tournament at Muscatine next
month. They go as spectators, however,
and not as participants in the various
races

ious that fire alarm system should be Sc

few of the side pieces were blown out o

Alderman Henry recently visited Milan
and made arrangements for the repair o.
the bridge across the canal, at an expense
of about So. The repairs consist in plac
ing new bents under the structure which
viii render it perfectly safe.
The question as to whether the city Of
Rock Island or the Rock river navigation
company is required to keep that bridge in
good order, has not yet been decided. The
arrangements looking to its repair was {

IN TROUBLE.

A few days ago Marshal Miller effected
the arrest of Eli Fitzpatrick charged with
forgery. The complaint was lodged, and
Fitzpatric appeared before Justice Chopper,
when the preliminary examination was
postponed until next Monday
The occasion of the arrest was a note
| calling for $500 and signed by the names
Jas. Bailey and J. B. Mcdonald. two well
known farmers of Rural township. It was
made payable to Elton Hall and was en-
dorsed by that name. Fitzpatrick had it
in his possession when arrested, and was
negotiating its sale to w. FL. Lundy, of
this city, for $780, He had already en-
dorsed it when arrested.
The accused was committed TO Jail, and
soon afterwards employed Oliver Olsen to
defend him. The latter saw the Prosecut
ing Attorney, E. E. Parmenter, and secur
ed from him note to the City Marshal,
requesting the latter to give up the note to
Mr.. Olsen.
The Marshal did not see the matter in the
same light as characterized the Prescott
ing Attorneys vision, and refused to sur
render the note. The Marshal said that
without the note he would have no proof
to substantiate his charge, and II such
course was decided upon, he would with
draw his charge and allow the prisoner to
regain his liberty.
The request of Mr.. Parmenter was re-
garded as very peculiar transaction in
criminal affairs. 1t is not usually thecase
for the prosecution to give the defense an
opportunity to prove the innocense of the
accused by giving away their evidence.
The forgery affair has some very pecul-
lar points that may work to the surface
during the preliminary examination, as it
is understood that the defense will seek to
prove that Fitzpatrick bought the note for
consideration, and that some
other party was instrumental in attaching
the signatures.

NO HEADWAY.

The Circuit Court has been in session
with few days exception, since the list OF
last January, but in spite of that fact the
docket now contains more cases than on
the first of the present year,
On the 1st of January there were six
criminal cases, 1874 law and 40 chancery
making total of $50.
On the 1st of May the criminal cases
numbered four, the common law $50, the
chancery $50, making total of 305.
1t would appear that a continuous ses-
sion increases the cases in place of reliev-
ing the docket, and to test the negative,
the present session viii come to close
next week.

Dear SSr-Y yesterday Russell
and myself were engaged in mailing 1000
copies of FarwelPs speech on the Henne-
pin Canal to all the newspapers throughout
the country. Townsend, of Illinois, is one
of the two, who got up the bitter minority
report against us. Townsend gives US an
excuse very poor one-that Russell in
the Gazette attacked his official record I'M
Justly Russell saw him and explained
the situation, telling Townsend
he was misinformed, and regretted he had
made the statement, but it did ne good.
Russell is not in any way to blame, and
has done all he can to make the amende
Last Saturday received several letters of
introduction to members from Pennsylvania
To-day I called on Gov. Curtin, land found
him all we could wish. He is warmly for
us. Saw Wise, of Pennsylvania. He is
perfectly enthusiastic. He says we will get
twenty-seven votes from Pennsylvania.
This is all they have. / think he is to san

shall call to see. Russell and called to see
Deuster, of Milwaukee, whom some
reported as against us. He is an

says he will stay with us to the end. l
met Senator Mcdonald this morning. He
voluntarily said he would take pleasure in
introducing me to any of the Indiana mem
bers. He is now out of the Senate. but a
very strong man with the members.
The fact is there is no organized oppo-
sit1on here, against u.s. Those who are
against us have the impression we have a
strong lobby here and think there is lots
of money being expended. If we could
get vote on the bill this session it would
pass by large majority, / am satisfied
There are, no doubt, individual members
who would make fight on us. but / think
it would go through the house with such
perfect rush that the opposition would be
powerless to defeat the bill. To-day was
sitting in the members gallery; Sam Ran
dali looked up and bowed to me. / am
going to have another talk with him be-
fore I leave here / think we can keep
him quiet if he don't vote with us. / had
very pleasant chat with Singleton on the
floor of the house to-day. l think the
most effective way to influence members is
to see them personally. They are only hu-
man, and feel gratified that we think
enough of them to ask them to vote for
the bill. Respectfully,
