THIRTY DAYS EACH FOR
ASSAUlTlNG CONDUCTOR
Bridge Line Car Receive Their
Just Deserts in Police Court.

Fred Robson and Joe Baustain, who
assaulted Conductor Gilbert after
boarding a Bridge line car in this city
the other evening, had their hearing in
the Davenport police court this morn
ing. Each was sentenced to 80 days
in the county Jail The evidence of
Conductor Gilbert showed that there
was trouble over the payment of the
fare. In handing over two nickels
Baustain dropped one, and it was only
found after a search. The two de-
PENDANTS used vile and profane lam
guage until the motorman and the
conductor were forced to interfere.
The two men then retired to the rear
platform, where they remained until
the car reached the corner of Second
and Rock Island streets, where they
assaulted the conductor as he stepped
out upon the platform, and then leap
ed from the car and disappeared into
the darkness.
Conductor Gilbert's injuries were
about the nose, which DR.. Donahue
sewed up. The wound was evidently
made with some instrument, and bled
