IN HONOR OF DEAD
Memorial Services Are Held at
Chippiannock Cemetery by
M. w. A. and r. N. A.
DEAN QUINN is SPEAKER
Delivers Eloquent Address at Pro-
gram Held Sunday Afternoon
Roll of Departed Read.

Services in honor of the memory of
dead members of the Modern Wood
men and Royal Neighbors were held
yesterday afternoon at Chippiannock
cemetery by the members of the camps
of the two societies in Rock Island and
South Rock Island. The members
gathered at the NJ W. A. head Office
building, and marched TO FlatirOn
square, where special cars were board
ed for the cemetery. Fred Rauh. pres
ident of the memorial association of
the local camps, presided at the exer-
cises at the cemetery. Dean ]. J.
Quinn was the speaker of the after
noon. 1t had been expected that May
or McCaskrin would also deliver an
address on behalf of the Royal Neigh
bors, but the mayor was absent from
the city.
Bring Religion Nearer.
Dean Quinn spoke of the two big
societies, with their thousands of men,
bers, as humanitarian organizations
which bring practical religion nearer
to the heart and soul of the members
He termed them the children of Amer
lean life and spirit, and showed that
they have a practical purpose for
practical people. All of the wealth of
Rock Island, placed in one great pile,
would not equal the amount that has
been expended by the Woodmen and
hn I'm, oh ,;t h.
said. Continuing, he spoke of the de-
parted members, and commented on
the beauty of the exercises held i'm
their memory. He showed that the
grave is not the end, and that those
who are left behind should not think of
death, but of life, and life more deeply
cOnsecrated to the ideals for which
the two societies stand. Dean Quinn's
address was eloquent and beautiful,
and pointed deep lesson to his hear
|ers.

out at the cemetery:

LICENSE MAY
/ OPEN QUESTION
Permit for Saloon Is Granted
to CAMEL Mortier and a
Fight Is Expected.
"OWL" IS TO BE REOPENED
Application Is Also Made for Another
i'm Same blOck-AmOng Those
Closed Year Ago.

The granting of saloon license to
day to CAMEL Mortier for 81 Seven
teenth street is likely to open up the
saloon question wider than it ever has
been in Rock Island. The property
owners maintain that Mortier secured
his license without the necessary petit
ton and consent, and it is understood
that legal controversy will be begun
to test the validity of the permit. The
place for which Mortier secured per-
NIT is the one known formerly as the
owl" and was one of those closed by
Mayor Schaffer and denied new per-
nit on the ground that it was not con-
Quoted according to the regulations of
the city. The place has been closed
for something like year, and it is ON
this fact that the property owners will
make their fight
And still Another.
And in addition to the license for
Mortier, notice was given this after
noon of an application by Pete Schaum
for license for the place on the cor
avenue, which was another of those
closed by Mayor Schaffer. Whether the
permit will be granted or not remains
to be seen. The Baumann case, arts.
ing from the closing of these and 9TH
er saloons, was never carried to a de-
cision on this point. but settled only
the question of duty of the city, treas
urer TO accept the fee when rendered
The main proposition was never reach
ed in the litigation
VIII Hurt All.
Some time ago after the defeat of
the $1,000 license proposition, The Ar
gus referred to the effort to reopen the
two places mentioned and others as
something that would develop early.
This attempt to force the reopening of
places that have been notorious. and
have been closed on that account, is
certain TO prove unfortunate for the
entire saloon business in the city.
These who seek TO conduct orderly
places, and run their saloons within
the regulations will, it is feared, be
compelled 10 suffer because of the per-
sistency of those who try to force the
opening of places in locations where
they are not wanted The LIQUOR in
terests of Rock Island should, for their
own good, make some effort to prevent
this disregard for the demands and
the rights of the people.

HARlAN'S STORY IN COURT
TESTIrIES OF MEETINGS WITH
JOHN A. BENSON.
Says Latter Never Asked Him to Get
Report on Land Case Investiga-
tions Of Secret Service Agents.

Woodford D. Harlan. former chief oi
division of the general land office. testi-
fed today in Criminal Court No. / at the
trial of John A. Benson Of San Francisco
Cal. charged with bribing the witness
and a clerk named William E. Walk to
reveal to him the contents OF a secret
report of special agents of the govern
ment who had investigated the alleged
fraudulent land transactions of the de-
fendant.
Harlan testified to meeting Benson in
this city in 1897, when the latter told
him he wanted certain land cases expe-
dited. They failed to agree on the price.
and he told Benson that Walk, his subor-
dinate. would see him and arrange terms
500 was received by him from San Fran
cisco. He gave part of 1t to Walk. When
similar amount was received later he
did the same. December 1S, 19O3 he met
Benson at the Willard Hotel, and on
the latter's suggestion went to a room,
descending to the lobby Detective Burns
met him and they went to the Riggs
House. where Chief Wilkie of the secret
service was found and to whom the
money was delivered.
Attorney J. C. Campbell of San Fran
cisco cross-examined the witness Harlan
denied that he had written to Benson
stating that for $1,000 he could secure the
report Of the secret service agents inves-
LEGATIONS into Benson's transactions. Wit
ness stated that when he testified in New
York as to writing the letter and that 1t
had been written at the direction and in
stigation of Detective Burns he was con-
fused.
Benson never asked him. he admitted.
to secure the report. and told him that
he saw no reason why he. should pay for
the contents of report dealing with the
transactions OF other parties.
