Peter Stevens, formerly an employe
in the lower saw mill, was brought to this
city today from Dewitt, Iowa. whence he
fed from Rock Island Monday morning
TO avoid marrying girl he had seduced
The girls name is Bertha Andrews, her
occupation a servant, she having worked
for some of the best families in The city.
She is in fair way to become mother.
and she declares Stevens to be the cause
OF her misfortune She asks, therefore
that he share the disgrace of their mutual
crime.
When it was known that Stevens had
decamped, a writ was placed in Bailifi
Flanagan's hands, and he traced the flu
gitives to Davenport, where the services
of Constable Hennings was secured, and
the two worked on the case until this
morning, when they caught Stevens al
Dewitt, placed him under arrest and came
to this city with him. A requisition was
not needed, as the prisoner willingly &C
companed the officers.
The young man is about "a and the
girl 20. They were very intimate friends
for some time, and those supposed to
know thought they were engaged The
trial will come up before Justice Halves
this evening, Maj j. NJ. Beardsley is
counsel for the girl, and it is through his
endeaVors to great extent that Steven:
was caught.

WITHOUT FIRE PROTECTION.
Critical Situation OF the Property
Owners Along Market Square
this Morning.

The incompetency of the present
water works management was again DEM
onstrated this morning, and fortunate il
is that the incident alluded to was dis
covered when it was, for nobody knows
how long things have been in bad condi,
ton, or how long they would have re
manned so, if circumstances had not bee n
as they were.
This morning Health Commissioner
Craig gave orders that the private aud
public sewers of the city be flushed
out and Chief Johnston and several OF
the firemen got q reserve hose cart and
set about to do it. Operations were com
menced on Market square; hose was
laid and an effort made to connect with
the hydrant at the southeast corner
of Third avenue and Seventeenth street
but when the wrench was put on it was
found there was no turn to the stem, anC
the tiremen tugged away until they snap
ped the top off. when they went down tc
the corner of Second avenue, and much e
their amazement the hydrants there wer'
found in the same condition.
Superintendent Stafford was then sen
for, and after time he arrived and sue
ceeded in loosening the hydrant.
As il was there was no harm done, save
the breaking of the one hydrant, but hat
fire occurred within a radius of sil
blocks of these hydrants, the city woul(
have been in critical condition TIL,
fire would have had its own way
IN spite of all that could have beer
done. for it was fully thirty minutes be
tween the time the accident was discov,
cred and the arrival of Mr. Stafford.
Before Mr. Kerr's retirement from tn,
experimenting of the waterworks he or
dered that every hydrant be inspected ant
loosened up, so as to be in readiness fol
use in case of an emergency. This wa
part of his work. and it was attended t.
once in SO often. Mr.. Stafford woulC
save trouble in doing likewise.

The Abattolr.

Health Commissioner Craig and Alder,
men Collins, Cavansugh and Larkin, who
visited Chicago few days since for the
purpose of obtaining ideas of the abb
attoirs there, were very we'll pleased with
what information they gained, They
spent five hours among the principal abb
attoirs of the western metropolis, and
studied the manner of working through
out. The erection of the abattoir here
will be commenced as soon as possible
The plan of the building will be furnished
by Mayor MuIdock and Aldermen Collins
aud Cavanaugh, and the interior machin-
cry will be supervised by Health Com>
missioner Craig. The institution will be
ready for use some time in August.
