The legal battle over the saloon
question in Geneseo will not be settled
for two weeks at least. At the closins;
of court at Cambridge Saturday, Judge

briefs to submit to him. and TO file a
list of citations and references. that he
might study them up during the com
ing fortnight.

ments when the case is taken up again,

tract from the vocal pyrotechnics. At

Saturday and States Attorney SturtZ
had just gotten well under way when
adjournment came. Attorney Haas of
Rock Island is still to speak for the
defense. and Attorney Brown, who was
one of the first speakers. will probably
take the floor again. as may Attorney

c. n. Moran EIudes Vigilance of
Authorities at Oaven-

PICKS LOCK OF HIS CELL
Had Served Terms in Sing Sing and

berries.

A story has just leaked out 10 the
effect that one of the most daring
criminals of the country recently sue
ceeded in eluding the vigilance of the
Davenport police department and
making his escape from one of the
cells at the station. where he was be
ing held for sweating while under a
S0-day sentence. imposed to hold him
until the grand jury could take hold
OF the case and indict the man for
the more serious crime OF burglary
While the details OF the case come
from outside sources. they are sd mi
nutely given that the story seems con-
siStent and reliable.
The story is that C. II. Moran. an
eX-convict of both Sing Sing and
Joliet. has made his nest in Daven-
port for the past eight months. his
headquarters being located at one OF
the East end resorts. There he had y
complete alarm system. consisting of
two bells, coils of wire and s. storage
battery. installed, by means of which
he was advised of the approach of a
police officer or other authority of the
law.
IL is understood that for some time
the local police had the man under
surveillance and on Jan. 3 arrested
him upon the charge of
vagrancy. When his room was
reached. several trunks We're found.
in which much stolen plumber was dis.
covered. a part of this consisted Of

ware store and other places which had
recently been burglariZed in the city

Upon this discovery being made,
Moran was given a 30-day sentence as
Il means for holding him until he
could be taken before the grand Jury
and an Indictment returned against
him by that body While being con.
fined at the station il is alleged that
the prisoner picked the lock to his
last Sunday, since which time nothing
has been seen or heard of him 1t is
fair to presume therefore that he has
made good his escape.
At the same time that Moran was
another individual giving the
name of Ed Meiller. was taken in tow
upon suspicion of being an accomplice |
of Moran. He too was given a 30-day
