and also that year ago, when the French

The Holmes syndicate 10 Present
Property Holders Petition 10 the
City Council.
The Holmes syndicate will, at the
meeting of the city council on Monday
night, present petition for an extension
of its line up Elm street from the present
terminus on Seventh avenue and Elm
street to South park. This petition will
have priority to any other petition be-
fore the council. of course as the ordi-
nance under which the Holmes people are
now operating, provides that they shall
build up Elm street as soon as the major
ity of the property holders there shall
petition. This has already been secured.
The efforts on the part of the seekers
of the electric railway franchise to seek
without consulting Mr.. Holmes, a right
of way over his Second avenue tracks by
virtue of the councils discretionary
power. should it feel disposed to exercise
it, as it is not likely that it will, has
doubtless had a tendency to hasten Mr.
Holmes in claiming his rights elsewhere.
1t was his intention to build up Elm
street next spring. anyway, but he will
build and operate at once. The
popular feeling while favoring the cleo
trio road, is that Mr.. Holmes has shown
such an enterprising. public spirited and
obliging disposition toward the city of
Rock Island that he should receive proper
and courtesy in the matter
of protecting such property as is legiti>
mateiy his.

The Moline Dispatch, speaking of the
results of the foot race at Davenpost
Tuesday, in which Cunningham was re-
ported last night to have permitted Rob

won, and continues:
Certain Moliners thought they mad

Cunningham didn't carry out the pro,
gramme, but beat his competitor and
carried off the $500. or So, 800 side.

reports are true, farmer" named Som

and John Weaver and his friends put up
the stakes for Robinson.
OF course Cunningham was LOADED"
for a chase, and as soon as he got his
money, he skippeb for the gate and
jumped into a rig he had in waiting. and
drove rapidly off. As he was seen to do
this John Weaver stepped into the rig
of DOC" Byers, the Davenport sporting
man, and drove off after him at break
neck speed. But Cunningham got away
and Weaver was arres ed and locked up
for a couple of hours for fast driving.
1t is confidently asserted that fully
81 600 changed owners on the outcome
of the race. Weaver, who had lost a
thousand OF so on the previous race, is
said to be sadly crippled financially.
There are rumors that he raised money
on about all his property, including his
saloon, and his home, 10 put up against
the Farmer Somers' $500, which he
confidently expected to win. Robert
Somers. who backed Cunningham, is said
to be farmer from near Carbon Cliff.
Somers is not so much OF a granger as he
looks, being an old sportsman, one of the
shrewdest of the shrevd. He has prob>
ably met Cunningham by this time. and
divided the spoils. Itappears that Weav-
er took Somers for VIII 1t he was not, and
thus the tables were turned on him.

PUSHING THE PAVEMENT.

The Advance Guard shows Up at Sew
enteenth street---An Estimate.
The advance guard of the street paw
ing gang reached Seventeenth street this
afternoon, and the space between the car
tracks will be paved that far west by to-
morrow, while the expectation now is
that by Saturday night the north side
will be completed clean that far, and a
good start made on the south side. Then
it is estimated something over one third
of the work will have be completed, or
about $4,000 worth.
The sloping gutter on the south side of
Second west of Eighteenth, is not Civ,
ing satisfaction Since it is put in, and
it will be changed. though not at the ex-
pense of the contractors. and it certainly
should not be at the expense of the city.
The cost of the alteration should, and
probably will be, assessed to whoever
among the property holders along the
block were responsible, by petition for
the unsatisfactory experiment.
A surprising discovery was made on
reaching the southwest corner of Eigh.
teenth street and Second avenue, when
it was shown that the new fiagstone walk
just put down there is at least one inch
above the the established grade. 1t is as
much of a revelation TO the contractors in
charge of laying the walk as to the mayor
and street contractors and the city engi-
neer; as it was laid according to the grade
line. and only change in that after it
was made could account for the present
which, however, is not at all
serious.
