DEW is STILL ABSENT
Trip From Quebec Adds Minor Mys-
terry to Crippen Case.

QUEBEC, Aug. 1.-THE continued
absence from Quebec of Inspector Dew
added another minor element of mys-
terry to the Crippen case today. 1t
is thought his wish to escape unwel-
come attention is not of itself suffl-
cient to account for his trip to Mon
treal yesterday and his further trip
to Toronto and Niagara Falls begun
Friday night.
1t is strongly suspected that his
mission is to arrange with railway and
steamship officials so that he may get
his prisoners of the country with less
publicity than attended their arrival.
Nobody but those Immediately con-
cerned." Dew is quoted as saying

WANTS RUsso-AMERIcAN BANK
Consul Said Institution Would Increase
Cotton Sales $1OO,OOO,0 900.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 6.-The
establishment of a Russo-American
bank would do away with the middle
man in the cotton trade between the
United States and Russia, which
amounts to s5O,OO0,O0O a year.
This is the opinion expressed by
John H. Snodgrass, American Consul
General in Russia, in report to the
Bureau of Manufactures.
The bank would act as the agent of
the American growers on the one hand
and for Russian manufacturers on the
other.
One manufacturer told him, he says
that direct banking connection and a
stable institution, in the two countries
would increase Russia's yearly pur
chase of cotton from the United States
to $100.0O0,000.

Illinois Supreme Court in
Reversal of
Itself.
HELD CONSTITUTIONAL
Decision in Famou. Case Which
Caused Confusion Over State
Is Given Today.

Springfield, June 29.-(SpeciaL)-
The supreme court today reversed
itself in the celebrated Joyce case in
volving the constitutionality of the pa
opinion in which it holds that the law
is constitutional.
At the February term Of court the
supreme court had decided that the
law was unconstitutional because the
title of the act and the act itself con-
tanned provision for the appropria-
ton of money with which to pay the
parole officers. The decision of the
supreme court at the time raised a
great commotion and the attorney gen.
This was granted practically at con-
ference held in Chicago between the
members Of the supreme court and At
torney General Stead. The arguments
on the rehearing were made April Is.
Hangs ON Word "Provide."
At the request of the supreme
court made when 1t formally granted
q
case not only the appropriations part
of the act by which it was pronounc-
ed, constitutional but.all the points
involved in the case were argued.
In the February opinion the decision
of the court hung on the word pro
vide" In its opinion today the SUI
preme court says: "a legislative act
providing money is one thing and
legislative act appropriating money
is quite a different thing. A legis-
lative appropriation does not provide
money but takes effect upon money
already provided. The word provide
may have the meaning commended for
by counsel, but the universal rule
is that when a statute is susceptible
of two constructions one of which
will render it unconstitutional and
another construction equally reason
able will sustain it's constitutionality
that the construction which will sus-
tain it must be adopted"
The court disposes of the contention
that the administration of the parole
act is an encroa chment upon the execu-
tive powers of the governor by saying:
THE action of the board of pardons |
under the law is nothing more than an
of the conduct Of the |
convict whose case is under consider |

Island City Boating Association
Unites With Citizens in
Planning for Day.
BIG DISPLAY OF FIREWORKS
Will Take Place on Levee In Evening
Fight at Longview Park in
Afternoon.

The abandonment of the usual
promiscuous Fourth of July fireworks
celebration does not mean that the
city will be any the less patriotic.
On the contrary, it means that the
city will have a celebration and a
something considerably out Of the
ordinary. At a meeting of the Is
land City Boating association last
evening, Mayor George w. McCaskrin
and Warren H. Reck, both of whom
are canvassing for funds for big
fireworks display on the levee, spoke
to the members of the club and ap-
prised them of what has been done
and what it is planned to do. The
result was that the club entered
heartily into the scheme and the riv-
er celebration will be on an extra
ordinary scale. There will be num-
erous races in the afternoon in which
a score of motor boats will take
part, and in the evening a $500 or
better fireworks display will be given
off the foot of Seventeenth street.
Regular Water Carnival.
The boat club will put on a small
sized water carnical for the occasion.
There are to be four races in the
the first being a three
mile race for boats under 30 feet
and with records of less than Is
miles an hour. The second will be
for boats over 20 feet, or any with
records better than 10 miles. The
third race will be a backwards race
in which nearly all the boat in the
harbor viii take part. The rules
require the boats to go backwards
over the entire course. The last one
on the program is five-mile handf-
cap race for all the boats.
There will be nearly a score of
prizes for the four races, there be-
ing a number of trophy cups to be
contested for, and in addition num-
Der of merchandise prizes which are
being solicited now by a committee
from the club.
In the, evening the boats are to
be decorated with lights and bunting
and a parade will be made past the |

The New PRECEDENT.
Mr.. Gable, the new president of the
bank, recently retired as general SUPER
intendent of the central district of the
Rock Island road, after having been
engaged in railroad work since leav-
ing school. He was rapidly forging
his way to the front in that line of
endeavor, but decided to abandon it
when his private interests became
such as to demand his entire atten-
ton. 1t will be gratifying to Mr..
Cables hosts of friends here to know
he is to become actively identified
with one of the city's financial in
situations.
Mr.. Cable succeeds Phil Mitchell
who has served as president of the
Rock Island Savings bank for four
years.
Means Two New Buildings.
The Savings bank will procure other
quarters and it is understood
will erect building of its own which
will be one of the finest in the state
The State bank will occupy both Of
fees in the Mitchell & Lynde build
ing, and take out the wall which now
divides them, and make the bank of
fees fully modern and complete for
commercial, savings and trust depart
ments.
This said Mr.. Mitchell To-Day,
will give the State bank adequate
quarters which have long been lack
ing. with two vaults instead of one,
and an uninterrupted frontage on three !
streets. Safety deposit box holders |
will be afforded additional and I'M
equalled facilities. The changes in |

Sham Battle Planned.
At 4:30 in the afternoon the cele-
bration will shift for a time from the
river front to Long View park, where
Companies A and F of the Illinois
national guard will have a sham bat
tie. The lay of the land in the park
gives a splendid opportunity for a
battle display. 1t is planned to have
a party intrenched on the hill tops
with cannons and guns and the t<so
militia companies will make tbs at
tack. 1t is expected that there will
be from so to rs men in the attack
ing party and they will go through
all the manuevers that would be used
in a genuine battle.
Mayor McCaskrin and Mr.. Reck re-
port that they have already secured
I etween $500 and $500 for the car
- 'ng out of the "sane Fourth" plans
and they fully expect to run the
amount up to $1,000 before they are
satisfied.
