MINISTERS FIGHT SUNDAY
POOL ROOMS IN MOLINE

Rev. W. w Willard, representing
the Moline Ministerial association, was
before the meeting of the Moline city
council last evening tic protest against
the granting of the petition allowing
the opening on Sunday Of pool and
billiard rooms and bowling alleys.
Simply because Rock Island and
Davenport countenanced these viola
tons, said the minister. Moline in a
spirit Of commercialism should not al
low herself to drift into the same
pathway, which can lead into but one
road. and that one pointed toward
hell.
The petition for the opening of the
halls and alleys was signed by so per-
sons, many of them merchants and
manufacturers. 1t was referred to
the ordinance committee to report at
the next meeting.

RUIN TO ENGINES
Rock Island May Have to Aban'
don Moguis on Account of
Water.
IT MAKES THE BOILERS LEAK
Peculiar Properties in the Aqua on
the Kansas Di-
vision.

Peculiar properties in the water
along the lines in Kansas are playing
much havoc with the Rock Island rail-
ways locomotives that the road may
have to abandon the big mogul en-
gines and return to the smaller pat
tern. Fifty-three of the smaller en-
gines were sufficient to haul its trains
over the $50 miles Of track in Kansas,
but 81 of the big steamers are not
equal to the task now.
The road is building purifying plants
ut each of the is stations between
Horton and Caldwell. but il cannot be
foretold whether they will meet the
emergency. One at Harrington was
completed last week and put in opera
tion Monday. 1t is the first of the line
of purifying plants, but the others are
being rushed, so thay may have n
chance to save the immensely valuable
big engines.
General superintendent Gruder eX-
plains the dilemma along these lines:
The water naturally has a strong ten
dency to make the engines leak. This
was true even when the smaller pat
terms were used. 1t is not a develop
posed But the small engines requir-
ed only about $50 pounds of steam
pressure to keep them going, while the
big engines that have replaced them
take much more. The smaller en-
gines could leak and still keep up
their head Of steam, but the big Cnes
cannot.
Half Out of Use
Just how serious the condition has
become may be judged from the fact
that almost half Of the company's
engines for the Kansas division are
out of commission most Of the time.
Three of the moguls were repaired
throughout last week, but before they
had proceeded ten miles one of the
trio ''blew up as the railroad men
put it when the boilers begin to leak.
Before the journey was completed,
the other two were ready to return to
