No Fair Trial Dav.,nor,

DIR. j. A. Reid, the Davenport physi
clan indicted for manslaughter as the re-
suit of an abortion, has filed in the cir
cult court Of Scott county a numerously
signed petition, alleging that he "cannot
receive fair and impartial trial in Scott
county, owing to prejudice and excite
ment against him" He alleges also that
there are four daily newspapers published
in the city of Davenport and that said
dailies and four or more weekly newspa-
pers in said city are circulated throughout
said county; that all of said newspapers
have contained extensive REPORTS of the
various proceedings in regard to the case
that they published in full with some un-
favorable, prejudicial and untruthful
comment of their own against him, the
various proceedings and statements OF
witnesses heard before the coroner. and
the proceedings before the justice of the
peace and the proceedings before the
grand jury" He further states that such
published accounts contain many state
ments which would be inadmissible on
trial Of the cause and which are highly
infiammatory In their nature, and have
the undoubted tendency to make pref
udice against said defendant"

A Rrush with the An,ches.

Advices from Banispe, Sonora, Mexico, say
that the Mexican troops came upon two rene
gade ApacheS recently and exchanged shots
with them, killing one. Other hostiles came
TO the rescue and We're driven on their strong
hold on the top of the mountain, where they
opened fire, wounding three soldiers, one
fatally. The Indians kept up the fire from
early morning until late at night, forcing the
troops to retire.
The next morning the troops again marched
on the stronghold, but the hostiles kept up
such an inceSsant firing that the troops, who
were nearly exhausted from thirst and hun
ger, We're compelled to retreat The next day
the Mexican troops received reinforcements
and charged the stronghold, bat found it
abandoned. The Indians had left large
amount Of clothing, provisions and saddles
behind them. They moved north, followed
to the line by the Mexican troops. They had
twenty-one horses and plenty of arms and
ammunition.
