Some years ago when suffering with
an uncommonly severe attack Of diar-
rhoea, Mr.. W. B. Guinnip, of Atco,
Pa, received through the mail a sam
pie bottle of Chamberlain's Collie.
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He
says: ST found it to be one OF the
most effective remedies I ever used.
It gave me almost immediate relief.
It has no superior and I think no
equal. No bad effects follow the use
Of this remedy. It is pleasant to take
when reduced with water and sweet
ened. Children like it. It never fails.
It is the most perfect remedy ever pro-
duced for bowel complaints. . For sale

THE talk about Mark Hanna or the
Republican congressional committee
expanding lavish sums of money to de-
feat Mr.. Towne in this district is the
merest rot. Mr.. Towne himself is re-
ported to have said that Mark Hanna
would squander $3.50, GOO to defeat him.
Eliminate three ciphers, Mr.. Towne,
you value your oratorical abilities at
too high figure. Hanna could buy a
couple of score Of ready-made con-
gressmen for half that amount.

NO INQUEST SEEMS LIKELY

Coroner HAYES VIII Not Conduct Exam
ination Of Walter Barrett's Remains.
The following has been made pub
lie:
Rock ISLAND. Feb. 6.-Upon a full
investigation of the facts connected
with the recent request for a post
norton examination on the remains
of the late Walter Barrett, find that
the communication received by me
was not written by Mrs. Barrett,
neither was it dictated by her. nor
written with any knowledge what
ever on her part. Whereupon no
such examination will be held by me.
DAVID HAYES. Coroner.
The Information herein contained
simply substantiates what THE
ARGUS learned upon investigation
several days ago-that Mrs. Barrett
was not the author of the letter re-
ceived by Coroner Halves. demand
ing the exhuming of the remains of
her husband aud q post norton.
Unpleasant as was the duty devolved
upon THE ARGUS in ascertaining
this fact, and far as it was from its
inclination or purpose to add burden
to the grief so deep as that felt by
the family of Mr.. Barrett, it was
nevertheless also learned, as stated
heretofore, that the feeling still re-
mains and probably will ever remain
that Walter Barrett's death was the
result of malpractice. Edward f.
Barrett, brother of the deceased,
arrived last evening from Toolsboro,
Iowa, and he shared in the feeling OF
the others to whom the deceased was
dear that there was nothing to be
gained for them but further anguish
and sorrow in countenancing a rigid
inquiry into the cause of death.

POLICE COURT wRANcLE.

An Attorney and O0lcef Exchange Hot
WORDS Over the Buryansk Case.
Things were lively in the police
court during the progress Of the
Buryanek drunk and disorderly case
this morning, and at one juncture
the atmosphere of that generally
peaceful little room overlooking Sec
ond avenue assumed q threatening
phase. 1t appeared as though At.
torney John Looney and Officer
Richard Carnes would measure
dukes, but they succeeded in con-
trolling themselves and the storm
passed over after q slittle.
The trouble arose over Attorney
Looney disputing the truthfulness Of
Officer Carnes' statement relative to
the arrest of John Buryanek. The
policeman said he met Buryanek be-
tween II and l o'clock yesterday
morning standing in front of Scha-
fer's saloon on Second avenue. drunk
as lord. He told Buryanek to
mosey homeward, but the gentleman
from Milan, the officer claims, gave
a taucy answer and said he would go
home when he got good and ready.
The officer met Mr.. Buryanek short
time afterward upbraiding a COM
panion on Market square in painted
language. So Buryanek was ar
rested.
Attorney Looney disbclieved the
officers statement and made . little
argument. Officer Carnes became
enraged and told the attorney what
he thought of him; and the squire
knocked the bark of the table trying
to preserve order in the court.
The court fined Buryanek 81 and
costs as charged. Attorney Looney
took an appeal to the circuit court.

Local Mills Not Affected.

A new rate on lumber goes into ef-
feet today from Superior, Wis. to
Sioux City, Sioux Falls and other
points in that direction. The mills
in that vicinity have been trying for
years to get into the territory which
is considered to rightfully belong to
the lumbermen along the Mississippi
river, and this is a step in that d.
rection, though the tri-city owners OF
mills say it does not affect them az
yet. there being no lumber shipped
in that territory from this point.
They say that it will have no effect
this side of Dubuque. and but little,
if any. above that point. Neverthe-
less they look upon the reduction
with little favor, as it is a movement
one notch nearer to their territory.
They have, by combined effort, sue
ceeded in defeating several attempts
to get rates which would allow the
lumbermen along different lake
points to ship to Omaha and other
Missouri river points and have been
uniformly successful in accomplish
ing their object to a degree, though
not to the extent which they would
like. They keep a watchful lookout
for any such entering wedges such
as this might prove, for they know
that eternal vigilance is not only the
price of success, but the price Of life
also in their cases. The reduction
which has been made is from "a cents
per hundred to 81 cents.

About Those Tracks.

There was meeting of the alder
manic committee delegated to ar
range for the removal of illegal
tracks along First avenue at the
council chamber last evening. Mayor
B. +. Knox and City Attorney Haas
were also present, being appointed to
act in conjunction with the commit
tee, which is composed of Aids. Foss,
Kennedy, Fender, Dauber, Schroe-
der. Schreiner and Surman. The
track question was given a thorough
airing. and although it is prob
able that a few of the tracks
will be ordered removed the COM
mittee does not propose condemning
all the supposed illegal ones. for if
such q course was decided on it is held
nearly every track on First avenue
would be involved. as there are but
few which hold franchise rights.
And then the committee viewed the
question from a commercial point
which suggested leniency toward the
railroad corporations in that in Grip
ping their right of way into a city
meant a certain loss to the latter.
So it appears the committee will en-
deavor to satisfy all concerned SO
far as consistent. No definite action
was taken and the committee ad-
!ourned to meet again Monday even
inc.

A MIDNIGHT FIRE ALARM,
Lard Ignltes and Envelopes the City Bak-
ery's Room In Flames.

ery'S Room In FLAMES.
Fire threatened the destruction of
the City bakery at 226 Seventeenth
street last night. When the fire de-
partment arrived the baking room
was enveloped in flames and gave a
discouraging aspect to an attempt to
prevent the incurrence of at least
serious damage. Fortunately the
blaze had not yet secured much of a
hold on the woodwork and the appli-
cation of chemicals soon had it under
control.
The fire started while the bakers,
Daniel Munro and William Bennett,
were eating their midnight lunch at
the residence of Edward De Rue,
which is located a short distance
from the bakery on the west. Before
leaving they placed a large pot con-
tanning about thirty pounds of lard
on the stove. Some butter ives also
mixed in it. 1t is supposed the
water contained in the butter didn't
get along peaceably with the lard
AID an eruption was the conse-
quence. For when they reared the
bakery room it presented a threaten
ing sight. Mr.. Bennett called the
fire department. The smoke had
spread all over the building and pso-
pie in the adjoining places had their
slumbers disturbed by the odor. and
quite a little excitement prevailed
until the flames were finally subdued.
The damage amounts to the burning
of few bread boxes and the scorch-
ing of the floor.

Obituary..

On August fifth, at Mankato, oc-
Cured the death of Miss Ella Kendall,
after long illness of many months.
Miss Kendall was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. A. M. Kendall, of Garden
City, who came to this region in an
early day.
The remains were conveyed to the
home at Garden City, where on August
sixth, in the presence of a large con-
course of sorrowing friends, the fun
eral services were conducted by Rev.
f. H. Marshall and G. L. Waite. Miss
Kendall was a faithful member of the
Church of Christ at Garden City. She
was most beautiful character and
beloved by all who knew her. The
christian qualities that went to make
up her nature blended into a sweet
influence that made her blessed.
A large circle of friends mourn her
loss
