MOLINE VOTES
FOR CITY COURT
Will Have Concurrent Jurisdiction in
Civil and Criminal Matters
With Circuit Court.

At the special election held yester-
Gay in Moline it was decided that Mo-
line should have city court of its
own The vote which settled this ques-
ton was a very light one, there being
a total of only 1,o4S. OF this number
773 were for the court and 275 were
opposed. AS the law requires only
two-thirds majority of the vote, the
proposition easily carried A city
court has concurrent jurisdiction with
the circuit court in all matters both
civil and criminal. At the next gen
eIal election a judge for the new court
will be elected. His salary of $4,000
a year will be paid by the state, the

BELIEVE BELL
TO Be INSANE
Man Held at County Jail on Con

Tried for Sanity.
POLICE THINK 1T Is SHAM
Attempted to Hang Himself While
Locked Up in City Station
Passed Several Checks.

Charles Bell, or Charles Hovis, who
is in custody at the county Jail await
ing an investigation of his case by
the next grand jury, to which he has
been held on the charge Of working
a confidence game, has succeeded in
convincing the authorities that pos
sibly his mind is affected and he was
ordered given a trial in the county
court today to test his sanity. The
prisoner was arrested three weeks ago
by the local police force who alleged
and proved that he passed several
forged checks for small amounts.
One of these was cashed by Alder
Twenty-second street, which he was
then conducting, and the other was
given to S. Deutsch, the pawnbroker.
The bogus checks were signed m.

the time of his arrest Bell claimed
that the man, Kenney. was his ac-
complete and that it was he wIo
made out the checks.
Tried to Commit Suicide.
The first night that the prisoner
spent in the police station he tried to
hang himself, using parts of his under
clothing with which to make. rope
He failed in this, but Immediately de-
veloped a series of epileptic attacks.
which, however, the police believed
were mere sham. On July IL he was
sent to the county Jail, and there the
apparent attacks continued and be-
came worse and worse all the time, but
the custodians. there agreed with the
police and thought the prisoner was
putting on for the purpose of being
sent to a hospital out of which there
would be more chance of escape than
from the jail. Recently, however, the
belief has grown that the man really
has become insane. Every precaution
has been taken with him, such as
claiming him to his cell, but he tries to
attack whoever comes near him never
theless. Several days ago he broke up

At the trial this afternoon the evil
cence seemed conclusive to the jury
and he was adjudged insane and Judge
r. w. Olmsted ordered him committed

he regains his reason within reason
