BUYS BUSINESS SITE.
Eli Mosenfelder Becomes Pos.
SCISSOR of Weber
Building.
IMPORTANT SECOND AVENUE DEAL.

Transaction Involving $4,000, Which
May Eventuate in the Erection of An
other Handsome Commercial structure
In Rock Island at Some Not Far Dis
tant Date.
A transaction involving an import
ant transfer of real estate in the bust
ness portion of the city occurred yes
terday afternoon, when the estate of
the late Mrs. Ellen Weber sold
to Eli Mosenfelder for consideration
of 81 8, 900, the real estate and business
block on the north side of Second ave.
nue. between Seventeenth and Eigh-
teenth streets. The building at present
on the site is a three story brick with
dimensions of 40x150 feet and is occu-
pied on the ground floor by the book
stores of R. Champion and C. C.
Taylor.
May Mean New Business Block. It
The purchaser, who, as is known,
is the senior member of the Rock ISL
and and Davenport firm of Mosen-
fielder & Kohn, stated today that it
was not yet fully determined what
would eventually be done with the
property, but he intimated quite
strongly that the purchase was not
made for purely speculative purposes,
nor was there any attempted denial of
the suggestion that at some not far
distant date fine up-to-date business
emporium might go up on the lot for
the occupancy of the M. & X. Rock
Island store. 1t need hardly be said
that such prospects are very crafty
ing, as is also the assurance which
the property change conveys, that
our old friend, Eli, has not by any
means abandoned Rock Island to her
fate, if he has cast his lot as far as
residence is concerned on the OF her
side of the big river.

To Locate Possible Leaks-Advice as to
How the Bottoms and Walls of the
Storage Basin Should BE Constructed
Further Examination to BE Made-Spe-
cial Session of Municipal Body Tonight.
Engineer d. W. Mead came to Rock
Island last night and delivered to
Mayor McConochie a partial report
signed by himself and Engineers Fan
ming and BenZenberg recommending as
to what. in their opinion, after an ex-
animation of the plant, should be done
with the reservoir.
The report recommends that test
be made of the pipes in the embark
ments to locate possible leaks; that
the sand be removed from settling
basin No. l, to ascertain how the
water got there from No. 2; that there
be an inch concrete bottom for the
storage reservoir, with block ofcon-
crete IL inches thick and two feet wide
at the base ofthe slopes, the sides to be
cut to the solid surface, as it now
stands, then puddled, the side to curve
from the base to the center of the
height, and the concrete to be II to
eight inches in thickness above the
of concrete with a single course
of paving brick laid edgewise in
a bed of cement mortar. the top
to be capped with block of concrete
curbing to prevent water from getting
behind the slope walls, and the earth
embankment TO be sloped from the
side walls.
Further report and recommended
tions as to the filters and settling
basins will be given after the tests re-
ferred to have been made and the en-
gineers make another examination
next Wednesday.

Among the important matters to
be considered at the meeting are the

practicable, other measures will be
undertaken in the hope of adjusting

titled to commentator for it's pains
in endeavoring to provide accommo-
dations for the steamboat companies
on the levee, and that it will eventu-
ally be successful in furnishing
suitable conveniences for all COM

numbers are aged 80 and 30, and the re-

contains some regiments that are consid
cred the equal of any of the regular regi-

that of the regulars. The Government
indicates the number of volunteers that

WAR NEAR AN END.
Communications of Gen. Otis to the War
Department..


Department..
Information was received in Washing
ton from Gen. Otis Friday which indi-
Gates that the Filipino people realize that
the insurrectionary movement has gone
to pieces, and are anxious that drastic
measures be adopted to bring about nor
NAL conditions in the Philippines. Gen.
Otis said in his dispatch that he had re-
ceived a communication from prominent
Filipinos saying that the remnants of
Aguinaldo's army had divided into small
bands for the purpose Of committing
murder and robbery, and suggesting that
they be classed as bandits and given the
extreme punishment meted out to such
desperados. They said, also, that, as 1t
would be necessary to maintain a large
number OF American troops In the island
to garrison towns, it would be a good
idea to utilize as many natives for this
duty as possible.
In his message Gen. Otis said that he
sent the communication of the Filipinos
as a sample OF many received by him. He
lessons it's Importance with faint praise,
however, saying that the men who made
the representations cited are not familiar
with practices outside the islands, and
have no idea of the way in which civil
lied nations deal with such conditions as
they represent.
