Spiritualism.

The spiritualists of Davenport and vi
cinity have organized themselves into a
religious body under the name of THE
Society for Spiritual Improvement" of
Davenport, Iowa. The preamble to their
constitution states the object of the so>
ciety to be for the spiritual, moral,
mental and physical culture and improve
ment of its members and others" The
organization is therefore, the mem
bers claim, of the same na>
ture and for the same purposes
as other religious organizations,
viz: for the PRONUNCIATION of religious
and philosophical doctrines which they
believe to be superior to those taught by
other religious bodies They are spirit
ualists, but have no support or sympathy
for fraudulent mediums and tricksters
| who ply their nefarious trade under cover
of spiritual mediumship. They believe
in honest, open spiritualism, and will en-
courage mediums and lecturers of that
stamp. Meetings are now held regularly
at 229 East Fourteenth street, Davenport,
but the society hopes soon to be able to
rent more eommodious place of meeting
and to place before the public lecturers
who will present the claims of their prin-
ciples for recognition.

a Wills Trip.

County Clerk Donaldson received this
morning the will of the late Mrs. c. c.
Morrison, wife of Lieut. Morrison, on the
government island. Mrs. Morrison, it
will be remembered, died February 7th,
last, and the will was filed for probate q
month later. The deceased, by her will,
leaves all her real estate and other prop
erty to her husband, who is appointed
sole executor to the will. The witnesses
of the document all live abroad-John C.
Greer and Mary G. Greer at Fl Leaven-
worth, Kan, and Ellen r. Ayers, at Ben.
icio, Cal. 1t was necessary of course, thai
the dispositions of these witnesses should
be secured, so the document was sent Il
them at their respective places, where the
deposions were taken and affixed to the
will, and returned to the proper officia
here.

The Sweetening Market.

The sugar market has revived
considerable strength over the news
from Europe of reduction of Il
cent in the bee:-sowing. The hold,
ers of beets in the continent have al
once refused to sell at late prices. Al
the same time prices of raw sugar, which
are over cent pound above the lowest
price last year will, undoubtedly, give q
stimulus to the production of cane sugar
Every effort will be made to bring all the
sugar to market Meetings. have increased
and the net consumption which was be,
hind last year week ago, now shows an
excess Of $3.50 tons. The low price al
which coffee was selling at the close OF
last week and slight falling off in the
receipts at Rio, have had a salutary effect
upon the specu lative market. When cot
fee was quoted at Sc for fair, it was near
y as low as the lowest price ever known.
At late rates coffee had many friends, but
it is hardly probable, with the present
supplies, that the country will respond
freely to advancements. The tea market
is not changed either way.

BLAST AND COUNTER. BLAST.
Warm Words From an Official of the
Rock Island Road, Aimed at the
Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul.

An obnoxious circular was recently sent
around on the Northwestern trains, intends
ed to attack the c., M. & St. P. road, and
at the time it was insinuated by this road
that the Rock Island road was RESPONSE
BILE for it. The charge was stoully de-
MED by the latter company, and further
thar tins an investigation was made by
General Passenger Agent St. John, who
says in his report the following:
1T is not very long since that the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. laul company
showed bad taste and bad judgment and
stirred up international ill>will by invad>
ing Canada with car of agricultural
products from Dakota, which, as it trav-
eled from pyint to point in the dominion,
attacked by odious comparisons the
climate, soil, and productions of
the Canadian northwest | have
never yet found it necessary in
competing with the Chicago, Milwaukee
and St. Paul, especially, or in any relat
tons whatever. to resort to such disreps
utable methods as those suggested by Mr..
Carpenter. But | take it as personal
compliment and as proof of to whom
Mr.. Carpenter attributes the origin and
success of his keenest competitor-'The
Albert Lea -Route'-that, as soon as he
gets into serious trouble through his own
or subordinates blunders, he is compelled
to cast insinuations against myself and
the road represent, feeling, as he must
and does, how every additional blundel
only goes to prove the superiority of the
Albert Lea Route, whilst virtually ad,
hitting that if we do know our bust
ness in Canada, it is exceedingly doubtful
whether the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul know theirs. have always found
that where Mr. Carpenter has proofs to
substantiate charge he does not neglect
to use them, and challenge him to pro-
duce any testimony of reliable nature
in substantiation of his most immoral and
unwarrantable deductions and insinua'
tons. Let him come out like man anC
say what he means, and not mystify thu
public by suppositious statements.
The outcome of the controversy il
watched with much interest by railroad
folks.

The War Eagle will be up tomorrow
afternoon.
Either the Josephine or the Pittsburgh
will land here for the south this evening.
If the Pittsburg is in condition she will
come.
The experiment with the compound
engine on the steamer Pittsburgh has
been costly one for the Diamond 10
company, which. it is said, will lose per
haps $4,000, as the Pittsburgh has been
laid up at Dubuque during the season of
grain transportation for which business
she is especially adapted The first trou>
BILE with the compound engine was that
the steam pipes were too small. and now
some new difficulty has been met
The rafting at Beef slough commenced
on the 10th of April. There was about
100, 100000 feet RATED early this week.
The rafting has been carried ON so rapids
ly that the Scandinavian camp had to
discontinue, owing to the inability of the
steamboats, to take the brails away as
rapidly as they were put together In
fact the work done some days approached
S,000.0 900 feet. They intendto rush the
business this year and make short job
of it.
The St. Louis & St. Paul packet CONS
pany don't show the courtesy to the
travelling public that the Diamond 10 line
does. From an incident which occurred
this morning, the ARGUS infers this The
st. Paul this morning on her downward
trip was laying at the wharf on this side
of the river. She had been at Davenport,
and was taking on freight here previous
to proceeding south. Three passengers
who had missed the boat at Davenport
rushed on to the ferry Spencer and asked
Capt. Cameron if he would take them
over in time to catch the st. Paul before
she left Rock Island The genial and
ever obliging captain kindly consented to
use his efforts 10 do so. and. to make sure
of not missing the steamer, he slgnalled
her, when half way across, and noticing
that he was not needed, he repeated the
signal. but just as the ferry landed on
this side, the St. Paul wheeled out from
her landing not fifty feet away, and
steamed off down stream. The three pas
sengers hailed her from the shore, and the
pilot poked his head out of the window
but the boat paid no attention. The disap-
pointed passengers proceeded to the Dia-
mond 10 office and engaged passage to
St. Louis, and will do their river travel
ing by that line hereafter. If the Saints
line is in condition to throw about $50
into the Diamond 10 company's hands, the
10 line is in condition to accept it at all
times, eyee il it is an accommodation.
