STEAMER YOUNG TO GO IN
QuINCY-KEOKUK TRADE

1t is probable that the w. J. Young,
Capt. Walter Blair's packet, which
left this afternoon for the south, will
not be seen at this port again this
season. When she reaches Burling
ton she will leave from that city for
Keokuk to run between that place
and Quincy, the route that the Eloise
has been covering from the begin
ming of the season.
The reason for the change is that
the business down below has been
rather too heavy for the Eloise to
handle. Capt. Blair will come back
north with the Eloise, which will
come up on the Young's regular time
Sunday and will then be taken to lie
Claire to be put on the ways for some
repairs. In the meantime the Helen
Blair will be brought out of the boat
yard in this city, where she has spent
the winter, and will take up the route
on the Young's time. When the re-
pairs on the Eloise are completed she
viii be started opposite the Helen
Blair.
The Ten Brock, which has been do
ing a towing business on the lower
river. has arrived and it is under
stood will go into business handling
coal between the Briar Bluff mines
on the Hennepin canal and the cities.

REWARD OF $500 OFFERED
FOR CAPTURE OF MURDERER

The people of West Liberty have Of
fered a reward of $500 for the appre-
hension of the man who murdered
Arthur Meade in holding up McCar-
tvs restaurant at that place early
yesterday morning. There is much
feeling over the crime and if the gull
~ party should be caught it seems
likely that an attempt would be made
to lynch him.
1t seems that the fear that the
young man killed was formerly a res
idcnt of Sears is without foundation,
for his parents and a sister live at
West Liberty. while the family of
the young man who lived at Sears are
known to reside elsewhere.
