Dan Hartwell, Moline Plumber,
Fined $25 in Justice Court
Here.
IS NOT HIS FIRST oFFENSE
Had Laid Connections Several Times
Before Without Having Proper
Permission Granted.

Dan Hartwell, the Moline plumber,
has come to grief again as the result
Of his having opened up street to lay
water connectionsswithout first having
secured the proper consent. He was
arrested last Saturday~on complaint of
Superintendent Dan Kelley of the wa
terworks department and brought be-
tore Police Magistrate O. J. Smith,
fromswhose court he askeda change OF
venue. It was granted, and yesterday
afternoon gthe case was heard by JUS
tice p. II. Wells, who found Hartwell
guilty of the charge against him and
lined him S25 and costs.
Hartwell laid the water mains I'm
question some time ago, but$it did not
come to the attention OF the city. off,
Gals until late last week. At that
time the residents at 1911 and 1915
Twenty-sixth street came to the. office
Of the city clerk andSasked to have the
water turned on at their homes, a
thing whichsthe' plumber had neglected
10 do.
Job Not Recorded.
The city clerk could not find, IN his
records that the houses in question
had any water connections, and an in
Quiry followed. The owners Of the
houses stated that they had contracted
with Hartwell TO put IN the connec-
lions and tap the mains, and that he
had done the job and received his pay
for it. He had neglected, however, to
turn on the water, and the houses
were in need of 1t. Hartweu was sum
moned to explain by what right he had
tapped the main and laid the connec
tons. He claimed that he had done
The work for another Moline plumber
who had taken the proper steps to Sc
cure the right to open the streets and
tap the mains. There was no record
Of this permission having been grant
ed. and as the evidence of the resi-
dents showed that Hartwell had appar
emily done the job on his own account
the charge against him was pressed.
Is Not First offence.
The Moline plumber has done the
same stunt on several occasions pre-
viously Charges were made against
him several months ago on the grounds
that he had opened the streets anG
tapped the mains without having beer
granted the right to do so, but Justice
G. =. Nissen threw the case out Of

mined to keep track of the plumbers
after this and make sure that they are
actins within their rights when they
lay water connections.
