Attorney Neal Withdraws Money
Attorney C. w. eNal, who is now in
Des Moines, is reported to have with
drawn $4,000 which he had on deposit
at local bank and to have had it for
warded to Des Moines. 1t is stated,
however, that he has other deposits in
this city. The withdrawal of so large
a sum, however, will serve to bear out
the general belief that Captain Neal is
preparing to leave Davenport perma-
nently.

adjourned until Saturday morning, bail
