long delayed striking clock in the
Burlington station tower and the
much promised Twentieth street

before General Manager w. G. Brown

in -hape for business and will be
open in about ten days. The com
pany's new commercial agent, C..
A. Hunter, is here from Council
Bluffs busting with business. As
stated by HE ARGUS, in announcing
the appointment Of Mr.. Hunter as
commercial agent. might likely be
the case. the company has decided 10
establish a ticket office in connection
with it's freight office in the bu-iness
section of the city. When Mr.. Hun
ter was first approached on the sub
iect he stated that no such plan was
proposed, but the suggestion was
enough for him, and ne forthwith
took 1t up with the company officials
in Chicago, with the result that the
order came to establish the ticket
office. +. ii Plummer, the company's
local ticket and passenger agent, will
probably have his Office down town
instead of at the Moline avenue sta
ton, while j. w. Crandall, the nigh
agent there, will become the day
man, and an appointment will be
made to fill the night position.

GRAVEEY TRIAL TAXES PLACE TODAY Boy Will be Made to Answer
 for Levy'S Death NEW EVIDENCE IS FOUND 1t Is Said an Eye Witness to the Hom. lolde Has Been Discovered.
 Sympathy Expressed for
 the Youth.
NEW EVIDENCE IS FOUND

The trials of Louis Gravely and Blanche Snyder on the charge of the murder of Isaac Levy on last Friday night will take place this morning in the court of Jus tice Abernathy.
 A new phase was added to the case yesterday by the arrest of Irene San ford on the charge of being implicated in the affair. Later she was released on her own recognizance and the charge against her will probably be withdrawn this morning. It is alleged by the officers that the revolver with which the shooting was done was her property and that she had loaned 1t to young Gravely on Thursday night. knowing the purpose for which 1t was borrowed. This, however, she denies and the officers are confident her story is correct
 It was announced last night by Chief Austin that some very sensational testi- mony would be introduced at the trial It is said that an eyewitness to the tragedy has been discovered and that the testi- mony of this witness will be introduced by the prosecution. The identity of this witness Is secret and will not be di- vulged until the time of the trial
 With Captain Weir Chief Austin has been industriously working on the case since the killing, and he announced last night that he would have several wit nesses and papers to place as evidence in the case. He feels that the woman will be deeply implicated In the affair.
 The trial this morning will be closely watched by many who are interested in the case from sympathy for the young man. The defense will be represented by Attorney N. L. Miller.

The coroner's jury which investigated the death of the negro man. supposed to be Jim Brown, and who was shot near Leeds Saturday. yesterday brought in a verdict that the deceased came to his death by gunshot wounds in the hands of parties unknown to the jury.
