Free Delivery for Denison

A report from Denison under
date of August 9th. states that
while the official accounting
has not yet been made by the
auditor for the postoffice de-
partment, the books of the
Denison office show that the
total receipts for the year end
ing June 3Oth, were $10,289.l6.
This is safely over the limit re-
quired for the establishment of
free city delivery, and there is
no good reason why Denison
should not have it during the
course of the next year if it so
desires. The only opposition
heard to free city delivery has
come from a few merchants
who believe that the people
will trade more if they are
compelled to go the postofice
daily for their mail.

north Of the passenger depot
on Thirteenth street when he
caught his left foot in a frog.
At this moment a switch en-
CINE was pushing a line of
freight cars toward the spot
where he was entrapped. He
yelled and tried frantically to
wrench his foot from the frog.
There was not time, however,
for the engine to stop, nor
could he loosen his foot, and
the wheels passed over his
limb.
The bones were broken
square off and the foot and
ankle hung only by q narrow
String Of skin and muscle. He
was taken to the hospital and
given medical attention. Lane
was a single man and had been
with tho Illinois Central for
several years.

that we were not going to have
sufficient warm weather to grow

Iowa the thermometer today at

The hot weather the past
few days has made it almost
unbearable on the new con-
struction work, however the
work is being pushed as rapidly
as possible.
The weather man was kind

was in evidence all last night,
much to the relief of everyone
who could not sleep the night

LIVELY FIGHT ON FRONT Street
Two Employees of Consolidated
in Alteration
Mr.. John MeAIlister Struck by Mr..
Walter Herring and Painfully In
jured-Affray Attracted a Large
Crowd.

There was a lively personal
ter yesterday evening about 6 o'clock,
on North Front street. in front of the
Office of the Consolidated Railways,
Light and Power Company. between
Messrs. Walter Herring and John
McAllister, two employees, which at
tracted a very large crowd, it having
occurred on one of the principal bust
ness blocks at a time when the street
was thronged with Saturday evening
crowds.
AS a result OF the trouble Mr.. Meal
lister had 10 be taken TO the James
Walker Memorial hospital to have a
wound on his forehead. over his left
eye, sewed Up, and Mr.. Herring was
placed under arrest by Officer Leon
George and taken TO the police station.
From what can be learned OF the oc-
currence it seems that the trouble
first started in the c. R, L. & P. Co.
building and that in the first encounter
McAllister got the best of Herring.
McA1lister is foreman of the street
mains for the company and Herring
is a lineman and the trouble is alleg-
ed to have occurred following a dis
pute over hours OF work.
Later when Mr.. McAllister had gone
up on the street. in front OF the build
ing and was leaning over some tools
preparing to take them up. Her
ring approached him from the rear
and grabbing McAIlister by the arm
wheeled him about and then nit him
with a pair of iron pliers, used by
linesmen, the blow striking McAllis-
ter directly over the left eye, inf1ict-
ing a painful wound, which dazed
him. Before Herring could strike a
second blow he was seized by by
ISLANDERS and a few minutes later was
placed under arrest b. Officer Leon
George.
McAllister vas picked uD and borne
into the entrance Of the Masonic tenn
pie, and in a few minutes was taken
by Mr.. Louis Moore in his automobile
to the hospital. There it was found
necessary to take five stitches in the
wound and after the dressing had been
completed he was taken by Mr.. Moore
to his home, No. 213 Castle street.
In the meantime, on Herring's re-
cital of the occurrence at the police
station he was released, on his w
recognizance for appearance in the
mayors court on Monday. Later
when the serious nature of the offense
had been learned an additional war
rant, charging assault with a deadly
weapon, was issued against Herring.
but it had not been served at midnight
last night.
The matter will be fully aired be-
Mayor Springer tomorrow.

Defense" replied the juryman.
Judge Biggs asked if this meant
a verdict of not guilty and the fore
man replied that it did.
His Honor then ordered the re-
lease of Snipes. The young defend
ant who had been in jail for more
than a year on the charge of muir
der from which he had just been ex-
onerated was then surrounded by
his attorneys and many friends who
congratulated him on the result
For the first time in more than IL
months Snipes was free and he left
the court room shortly after the YER
dict had been announced TO go to
his mother and sisters, who have
stood by him during his imprisonment
When the jury first took the case
on Friday evening a ballot was TAX
en- to find out the opinion of each
one of the twelve men and it re-
suited it is said, in seven voting for
acquittal and five for conviction Of
manslaughter. During the early
hours of Friday night one who had
voted for conviction changed over
to the other side, the others having
come over yesterday at various in
tervals until the unanimous agree
ment was reached shortly after half
past five o'clock.
The entire case has been one of
the most holly contested in the GRIM
inal annals of the county. Solicitor
Duffy, ably assisted by F. w. Bo-
nitZ, Esq, has presented a strong,
forceful case for the state, while
the brilliant array of counsel for the
defense have done everything that
possibly could be h%onorably done
to further the cause of their client.
