at Quincy For several weeks it has
been suspected that this move would
be made, Captain D. Walter Wisherd,
who has always had charge of this de-
partment, having removed to Quincy
last fall, where he is at present own
er and manager of large automobile
garage. Agent Carl ]. Mangan, who is
in charge of the local Office will have
charge of the company's business out
of this city and Davenport, the re-
mainder of the business being han
died through Captain Wisherd's office
at Quincy. Captain Wisherd is well
known in the tri-cities and his many
friends will regret to hear of the
change. He will make short business
trips to the tri-cities during the
summer excursion season, looking af-
ter the interests of the steamers, ]. S..
