ROSENFIELD Is ALL RIGHT.
irresponsible Publication Affecting a Rock
Island Soldier.


Street gossip had it last week that
Louis Rosenfield. of Company A. had
been court martialed at Sprin 9 field for
leaving his regiment without permits
sion. Finally the report came to the
ears of the morning Union, and with
out thorough investigation, such as
should have been given to such a
serious affair, the story was rushed
into print, together with the state
ment that Rosenfield had been SEN
fenced to 60 days in the guard
house. etc. 1t had not the least foun-
dation. Louis is still free man and
his military escutcheoni is untarnished.
He was ordered from Rock Island
to Springfield to report for duty, and
was assigned to remain there with
the sick, and there he has been.
He telegraphed his family today that
he would leave Springfield for home in
few days.
The story had its origin in the as
sumption that Rosenfield had re.
manned in New York after his regi-
ment had left, and then instead of
following it to Springfield direct,
came on to Rock Island to visit his
street wags, from which the Union
gained its information, had it that
Rosenfield was to be made TO pay a
severe penalty. Anyone who would
stop TO consider would not give much
credence to a rumOr of the govern
ment inflicting an extreme penalty
for an ordinary shortening on the
part of soldier who had Just gotten
back to this country after having
risked his life on hostile shores, and it
shows an exceedingly inconsiderate
spirit on the part of the Union to
start on the rounds of the press
where il is now traveling-any story
that brings disgrace to volunteer
soldier-especially story of so little
foundation.
While THE ARGUS, on learning the
rumors the day following the boys
return. took no stock in their nature
feeling that even had Rosenfield been
guilty of slight breach of discipline he
would not be required to pay so Sc
we're a penalty. yet it awaited the OPP
portunity to receive an affirma-
ton or denial from Col. Foster.
This came this afternoon to The AR
Gus, Col. Foster stating that he had
heard of the reports and that there
was nothing whatever in them, nor
was there likely to be, as far as he
knew. The colonel does not say
whether Louie remained too long
in New York. or whether he had erred
in coming to Rock Island instead of
going to Springfield, but he does say
emphatically that if n court mar
tial has been held or is even contem-
plated. it is without his knowledge.

A jury was impanelled this morn
ing to try the case of Nicholas
Newcomb and John Mcfarland, of
Davenport. against the Moline Exeur-
sion company. The plaintiffs ask
$500 damages, alleged. to have been
sustained in consequence of the fail
ure of the Excursion company to
furnish the steamer George NJ. Waters
and barge, as per contract, for the
transportation of a party of tri-city
sports to Offerman's island Aug. 80.

to be pulled off. Maj. j. NJ. Boards
ley and j. w. Quillan appear for the
plaintiffs and W. K. Moore appears
for the defendant.
An incident somewhat out of the
ordinary occurred yesterday in con-
nection with the suit of w. j. Moscer
VS.. the Mutual Wheel company. The
selection of jury had begun when
the plaintiff walked into the court
room. He was Immediately recog-
nized by Judge Gest, who recollected
that he had been consulted, as an at
torney, by Mr.. Mosher in relation to
the ease. On this account Judge
Gest suggested that the trial be before
some other judge. So continuance
was aged to-
was granted a divorce from her hus-
band, Joseph o. Geisler. on the
grounds of cruelty.
