from disobeying the strict injunctions
of the police against showering the
young monarch with flowers.
An imposing array of civil guards

The school buildings of the city

and several thousand children dropped
their play to take up the more serious
occupations of the school rooms. There
is no great change shown in the en-

noticeable change being in the KEN

where there were material additions

of the territory to the city automatl

QUARRY MAT TER
TO COME UP AGAIN
Council to Dispose of Moline Stone
Company Controversy This Even
ing at Regular Meeting.

The regular meeting of the city
council, which was not held last even
ing because of the fact that the day
was Labor day, is to be held this even
ing, and a lively session is anticipated.
The Moline Stone company contro-
versy will be the important PROPOSE
ton before the council. The company
some weeks ago was given permits
sion to continue operations until this
time, with the understanding that it
should endeavor to make a settlement
with the property owners adjoining
its quarry. 1t will be- recalled that
the attention of the council was called
by Alderman Ellinwood to the fact
that the company has e9cIoached on
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-09-08

city property and has gone some dis
lance further than permitted by its
ordinance, in the operation of the
quarry iii the east end of the city,.
The company through its attorneys,
Searle G Marshall, proposed to settle
with the city in any reasonable way
for these encroachments. but the
property owners in all of that part of
the city protest and demand consider
alton. The understanding at the time
the matter was up before was that the
Council would declare the companys
quarry nuisance unless settlement
with the property owners was reached
before the time of tonigh.'s meeting.
1t is reported that the effort to settle
with the property owners has not been
successful, and that the situation is
practically what it was before.
The matter has attracted much at
tention and interest
