have upon consultation decided not to per
form surgical operation to relieve the

On the brain, in the vicinity Of the blow
upon the skull. Such course would
not in their opinion, be advisable, and a
different plan has been adopted. which
the Monmouth Gazette describes as fol-
lows:
As well as can be ascertaincd and de-
scribed by one not skilled in anatomy or
technical terms, it is thought possible
that Mr. Dryden's mental condition may
be caused by the pressure of Il small bone

side and partially spliutered, with the ex

which it was struck, but on the other
side the fracture would be very marked
So in the case Of a blow upon the skull
There may be no remarkable indication
of a fracture an the exterlur and yet
within there NAV be small splinter con,
stantly pressing upon the brain, 1t may
not be that this is the state of things in
Mr.. Dryden's case, but it is possible.
However, the physicians have decided
that the probabilities do not justify an
operation at present.

CENSURING THE COURT.
The Union Makes an Inconsistent
and Unjust Attack Upon
Judge Glenn.

The Union of this morning makes an
indicate and very unjust attack upon
Judge Glenn for the course he has pur-
sued in the matter OF the Huesing injunc-
ton upon the city's use of the recently
constructed abattoir, and the following is
taken from the article alluded TO.
In settling these orders Judge Glenn
ruled in favor of the compliments attor-
neys constantly, from the first manifest.
ing disposition not TO try the case in
time for an appeal to be taken to the
December term of appellate court Qns
deed, he came into court in the afternoon
with his travelling tag in his handy
Finally, when driven to the point by the
council for the city, he said the case
could not be tried now and it was use
less to attempt it. He then adjourned
court for the term. One had ceased to
expect, anyway, that the people would
have fair chance given them to carry
their case up without delay.
Whatever Judge Glenn's rulings may
have been on the trial of this i'm portant
question, or however contrary to public
opinion, he is no less entitled to the re.
spect the dignity of his Office commands,
and such statement as the U8Isn makes
is an outrage and disgrace The city
can expect no more privileges after enters
ing into litigation than private citizen
can, it is simply party to the suit and
Can only expect treatment as such
The ARGUS unhesitatingly states that
in its opinion Judge Glenn's ruling will be
reversed by the supreme court In saying
this it cites the opinion of the majority of
the members Of the bar in Rock Island
who claim that the case upon which Judge
Glenn apparently bases his opinion is not
al all parallel TO the case in question.
The ARGUS however. has no less respect
for Judge Glenn aud believes that his
opinion is rendered according to his con-
vctions OF right IN the case.
The insinuation in the last part of the
Inion's article, that the people have no
rightto expect justice from Judge Glenn,
is iefectio that no sensible person
will endorse.

merous business houses in Davenport
informed their employees who had money
deposited in the bank that it they were

The amount paid out during the day
was great deal smaller than was sup
posed, amounting altogether to between
$50, 600 and $4,000. The following card
was issued yesterday:
Rumors have been circulated by igno>
rant and mischievous persons that the
German Savings bank is not in safe
condition. These rumors, if believed,
will cause many depositors to withdraw
their savings and lose the interest on
their money. and will also discourage
economy among people who without the
aid of savings banks, would squsnder
their earnings. Not only this. but the
belief in such rumors will cause a feeling
of distrust which will be injurious to the
city, and remove from circulation money
needed for business purposes. The Ger

has a large surplus and can and will paw
