Moline w. e. T. L. Brands Rock Island Al
dermen rs Anarchists. Rebels. Etc.
The w. G. L. L. of Moline has
adopted resolutions on the repeal of
the Rock Island Sunday saloon clos
ing as follows:
1--WE condemn the action of the
city council of Rock Island in repeal
ing the city ordinance closing the
saloons on Sunday, and in view of
such action we look upon them as
rebels and anarchists, inasmuch as
this is an evident attempt to nullify
a state law which is as binding as
any city law possibly could be. If
they were dealt with as they should
be. every one who voted yea would
he impeached.
I'VE commend Aids. Kennedy.
Gall and Nelson for voting nay,
thereby showing themselves law
abiding citizens and officials"
From the language used by the Mo-
line ladies it is evident that the
word. temperance, is not entirely
recognized in all their deliberations
and thoughts.
Will Sign the Ordinance.
There has been considerable spec
ulation as to Mayor Knox's position on
the ordinance eliminating municipal
authority with the Sunday saloon
closing question:. and some have
ventured the assertion that he would
not attach his signature OF approval.
The impression is without founda-
ton. The mayor acquiesces in the
councils decision on this particular
matter and intends carrying out its
wishes-at least he so expressed him
self to an ARGUS representative this
morning. He said: Il don't pro-
pose to act contrary to the councils
wishes. A majority of the aldermen
voted for the amending ordinance
and l will abide by the majority.
Yes, will sign it,"

BOYS BOUND OVER.
Goodhardt and Meanor Waive an ExamIn-
alton.

alton.
The preliminary hearing of Will
liam Goodhardt and Claude Meanor
under the serious charge of assault
with intent to kill Officer Carlson
was continued yesterday afternoon
until this morning. when they were
bound over to await the grand iury's
action under bonds of $500 each.
They have retained I.ooney & Kelly
as defense. The accused were not
disposed to introduce evidence and
waived an examination. Goodhardt
and Meanor had several companions
the night of the assault, but refuse
to implicate anyone but themselves,
desiring to shoulder the entire con-
sequences rather than criminate
their pals. Their explanation for
not divulging other aggressors is
that they were the only ones actively
connected with the affair. The lads
will furnish bail.

In Justice Yields court yesterday
afternoon David Moran. OF Coal Val
ley, was placed under $3.50 bonds to
await the grand iury's bidding,
charged with assauliing Charles Con-
nors with a deadly weapon. Crop
ping from the side of Connor's era
mum was an abundance of evidence
that he had got decidedly the worst
of it somewhere. Moran and Con-
nors are neighbors of the same burg.
Quarrels between their children led
up to parental combat. A few
days ago the men began unearthing
old sores. Moran secured pair of
blacksmith tongs and landed them
across his neighbours head, inflicting
cash several inches long, but for
tunatelv not fracturing the skull.
Connors brought his troubles here
and States Attorney Searle prose-
cuted Moran, who was defended by
j. I. Kenworthy.

Leo Bordeau escaped from the
Moline liquor cure institute last
evening and came down to his famil-

made life hideous prior to his re-

Bordeau was arrested and excur-
stoned to headquarters. where a rep
resentative of the Moline institute
found him this morning and took
him back to continue treatment.
Leo was recently released from SEN

about his mothers home up town.
He was afterward persuaded to go

LAST FRIDAYS WRECK.
Several Parties More or Less lnjured-Fire- mans Leg Crushed-Damage of Sey-
 eral Thousand Dollars.

The State Herald of yesterday morn ing contained a brief report of a collision that occurred in the Southern Railway yards at o'clock yesterday morning. The lateness of the hour at which 1t oc- cured made 1t impossible to give full details in yesterdays State Herald.
 The collision occurred, as stated, in Avondale, and was caused by passenger train No. 37 and a train of freight cars running into each other
 Engineer 'Spinks, In charge of the pas 5enger engine, reversed his engine as soon as he saw the other train approach ing, but it was too late to prevent them coming together. AS stated yesterday, Engineer Spinks sustained slight injuries and his fireman had his left leg broken and badly crushed. Amputation will likely have to be resorted to to prevent more serious trouble.
 The little child mentioned as being hurt was the baby of MT. and Mrs. J. Rosen- baum of Bessemer It was not as seri- ously hurt as was at first thought.
 c. E. Weber of Memphis sustained painful bruises, but they were not seri- ous.
 Dr. Will Jordan of this city was on the train, returning from New York. He was thrown against a seat and his head slightly bruised.
 The damage to the engine and cars will amount to several thousand dollars. The blame has not been fixed on any one yet.

WARRIOR.
End of the Fifth Weary Week of the Strike. Cotton Coming In.

Cotton Coming In.
 Warrior, Oct 12.-(Special )-Today ends the fifth week of the coal miners strike here The difference between op- orators and miners is a matter of wages. the regular rate having been 50 0 >ts per ton for run of mine coal, and miners de- manding 70 cents per ton. Miners claim they can't live al 50 cents per ton and op- orators claim it is impossible to put their coal on the market in competition with other Alabama operators, who get their coal dug at 40 cents. The coal produced here is strictly steam coal; no domestic coal being sold from this place. The stopping of the mines has very depress- ing effect on business, as the trade of the town depends largely on the mining busi- ness. It is estimated that 300 miners have lost an average of S6O each during the thirty working days lost, an aggre- gate of $50, 900. which, of course is severe ly felt in commercial circles.
 The Mabel Mining company, the Watts Coal and Iron company and the Warrior Coal and Coke company have done abso- lutely nothing in four weeks. The Pear son Coal and Iron company, your corre- spondent was informed, has ninety men, all told, at work today. Sixty or seventy of them are imported men. the balance being old employees of that company
 Meager supplies of provisions for strik- CTS are being sent up from sympathizers at other points.
 The cotton crop is beginning 10 move. and in a few days will perhaps liven up business some, but the outlook in the coal line is gloomy, as the operators and employees are so far apart that there seems no hope of settlement.

Hustlinp for Mckinley.

A special from Mobile says: The poli- ticians here, the republican politicians, are very much wrought up over the re- cent visit of Col. w. Youngblood to the city, inasmuch as he is a member of the national republican executive committee, and came here. it is stated, as the imme- diate representative of Governor McKin- ley of Ohio, who is asking the nomina- tion of the republican party for the pres idency.
 Colonel Youngblood had an interview with Col. P. D. Barker Col. M. D. Wick ersham, MT. Stephen Leonard and also with James T. Peterson, the latter repre- senting the better element of colored re- pubiicans.
 MT. Youngblood did not care to be in- teryiewed when seen last afternoon at the Battle house. He thought to rush into print at present might arouse inter est that was dormant and thus cause trouble in camp.
 It Is understood though, that MT. Youngblood has been all over Alabama and several other states and expressed himself as perfectly satisfied with Mc- Kinley's chances He is of the opinion that the Ohioan will win on the first bal lot.
 MT. Youngblood left for Montgomery at 12:30 o'clock this morning.
