THE REBELLING BUTCHERS.
The City's Move as to Mr.. Huesings
Temporary Injunction ON the
Abattoir.

A great deal of interest is manifested
as to what will be the action of the city
in its present condition of being deprived
of the use and management of its abat>
toirs under the recent injunction of Mr..
August Huesing. The first step it is
understood will be motion before Judge
Smith, of the circuit court who issued the
present injunction, by the city's counsel
for new and larger bond The law re-
quires that in such ases-injunctions
etc.-ihe petitions for such service must
be accompanied BY sufficient bond. The
amount required in this matter was $500,
which the city claims is too small and
which certainly seems So A motion will
therefore be made for a new bond with
specifications that the amount be in
creased to $1,000, at least
1t is apparent now that there will be a
fierce legal warfare between the city
counsel and the attorneys of the revolving
butchers. The city is determined to dis
solve the injunction which has been
placed upon it, and the butchers headed
by Mr.. Huesing, are determined that the
injunction be held, it is said, until the
present city administration steps out
when they hope to amend their griev-
ances before a new council and new
mayor. 1t is to be hoped the allegation:
of tie butchers will be speedily met and
dispensed with by the city and that i
may assume control of its slaughterine
and inspecting quarters, which is es
sential TO the health of the city.
Mr.. Huesing has engaged as counse
for the rebelling butchers, Judge /. o

THE TURNER'S

The streets on the route of the march
ing Turner'S on Saturday evening were
lined with spectators, and from Begin
ming to end it was a continued ovation.
About three hundred were supplied with
torches, and three bands-the Pekin
band, the Light Guard band of this city
and the Davenport drum corps played
tunes to which all kept step. The bust
ness houses and shops were nearly all
decorated. Many arches and lines span
| ned the streets to which was
affixed or suspended from banners
with inscriptions welcoming the
stranger visitors. At the opera house
where the procession terminated,
long tables were spread and soon every
man had sandwiches and beer, not,
though, until Mayor Schillinger had wei
coined the visitors to the city IN one of
his short characteristic speeches, in
which much is said in a few words.
Conrad Grantz responded. The balance
of the evening was spent in pure and I'M
adulterated fun. The Pekin band played
several very difficult pieces in mastery
manner and the Light Guard equaled, if
it did not surpass them in harmonious
sounds. About dozen got on the stage
and played through fine tooth combs, ellie
iting sounds of applause. Prof Witter
was also encored after one of his songs
which was finely sung. Charley Renter.

way he made things rattle occasionally
