Rock Island daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1886-1893, 1891-07-17

Paul Kersch, local editor of the Volk
Zeitung. returned last evening from his
tour abroad in the interest of the Column
bisn Exposition Company of Chicago
Mr.. Kersch visited the chief cities of
Austria, Germany. France. Italy and
England, and talks entertainingly of his
journeyings. In Italy he says the pre-,
vsiling sentiment among the better and
more sensible classes is that the ministers
of that country acted hastily and failed
to show good judgment in regard to the
recent New Orleans trouble. He says
that Rock Island is known everywhere
and that through the east commercial
travellers have given the city reputation
for its beautiful park and street railway
system
There are no new developments in the
trouble between the street car company
and the paving contractors as regards the
grading and excavating of the street rails
way tracks. both sides remaining obsti-
nate. This morning Mr. Walsh. of the
contractors, served notice on the mayor
that unless the tracks were graded be-
yond the middle of Twenty-third street
when he reached that point, he would
withdraw his men and cease operations.
The street car company is still holding its
men off and 1t begins to look now as if
if the city was going to get the worst of
it. That is what THE ARGUS said yester-
day should not be allowed. 1t matters
not which of the contending parties is
right in this matter, it seems that the
mayor ought to bring who ever is causing
delay to time, and let the work go on.
The intersection OF Twenty-third and
Fourth was completed this morning, and
the PAYERS started south on Twenty.third.
Unless the matter is adjusted by tomor-
row the paving will be at a standstill
