or hesitate to put our claims to a
test.

catarrh. That way is through the

his fist was none other than Officer
Henry Lebbert. Lebbert was return
ing from Davenport with a prisoner
when Dugan attacked him. The Off
Ger and prisoner rode from Rock ISL
and on the rear platform of the car.
Conductor Archie Hart had words
with Dugan because Dugan expector-
ated on the car floor and became in
sulting when asked not to repeat the
offense. At Eighth street, Dugan
walked to the rear end of the car and
began to abuse the conductor, but was
ordered to return to his seat by the
officer. No more attention was paid
to Dugan, and at Fourth avenue and
Fifteenth street the officer left the car
with his prisoner. SDugan at the same
time stepped from the car and rushed
at the officer like an Infatuated ami

struck at him two or three times be-
