Of the late King Leopold Of Belgium In
his government of the kongo.
The statement says:
LAS time is allowed for calm con-
sideration Of facts. the general American
press changes very much for the better
its tone with regard to the administra-
ton of the Kongo under the late King
of Belgium. There was at first the
passionate outcry against barbarous cruel
ties committed under his regime. Now.
however, official documents or reports OF
distinguished and unprecedented travellers
are being listened to, and the DOGGY OF
atrocities is being more or less put to
rest.
"As a plain matter of fact there were
no 'trocities' in the kongo. This may

to the latter. The clerk read a COM
nUnication from Charles L. Bailey, Jr.,
Harrisburg, Pa, trustee for the holders
Of the bonds of the Union Electric
company, replying to the proposition
to buy of Looney. Mr.. Bailey informed
the council that such an uncertain offer
hardly could be considered where so
much was at stake, and he urged the
aldermen to permit the company to
proceed with its plan to dispose of its
pf ysical properties in a way that
would best protect the people whose
money was tied up in Che plants. L..
w. Stanton, the promoter, had COM
mt nication before the council, in which
he stated he had been called away
from the city, and requesting that no
action be taken until he was heard from
further. The Bailey and Stanton COM
munications were ordered filed.

Alter brief discussion, the resolu-

MOOSE DELEGATES
GO TO CONVENTION
Tri-Cities Send. Advance Contingent
Prepared to Make Campaign
for Next Meeting.


The advance guard of the tri-city
delegation to the Moose convention
to be held at Baltimore left today
loaded down with ammunition to

next week, the other 3 delegates de-
parting Friday. Headquarters will
be established at the Hotel Herman,

cities are out for the convention it

Scathing Arrangement in Con-

Merger Question.
EXPLAINS OWN POSITION
Questionable Motives Are Charged in
Effort to Buy Independent Plant
Referendum Suggested.

At meeting of the Rock Island city
council held last evening the following
sensational message was read by
Mayor G. w. McCaskrin:
To the City Council of the City of
RocE ISLAND: We have conducted the
affair." of our city to the best of our
ability. We have made all of our ac-
lions public Not a dollar has been
spent without your approval. No ord
nance has passed without your vote in
open regular session. No outsider can
say to this council, TT was largely
through my efforts" etc. The actions
of this council are IT'S own. We have
ordinances to govern us, and our pro-
cedure is governed by regular rules of
order. Among these rules is rule 81,
mo ordinance shall be adopted by the
city council at the same meeting at
which it Is offered for consideration"
Under this rule no ordinance can be
railroaded through this council. No
ordinance has ever, during my admin
tstration, been railroaded or unfairly
passed through this council. We need
no champion of the people" to tell us
what to do. We should allow no one
TO obtain credit for our work. John
Looney says that ordinances have been
faiIroaded through this council.
John Looney has promoted prize
fights, dog fights, cock fights, and is
constantly associated with criminals
He is known as shyster. He has beat
men out of their wages. He has en-
deavored to libel, without justification,
many decent men in this city. He has
been indicted and was, in our circuit
court here, tried and found guilty, and
sentenced by Judge w. H. Gest for the
crime of conspiring with others to de-
fraud the city. LOoney now admits
they sneaked in artificial cement in
place of Portland" cement in the
Twenty-fourth street storm drain.
Looney says 1T is just as good" but
admits violation of the contract, and
the jury said they were guilty of crime
against the city and the people of the
state Of Illinois.
This is the man who says, 81 am
champion of the people; l fight for the
peoples rights. Il was largely through
my efforts etc. Looney came here to
be heard on an ordinance before It was
in, our power to consider it. He wanted
70 violate our rules of order, and claims
that you were going to railroad an
ordinance through.
Looney says be protected the peo-
pies rights" against you. Gentlemen,
such Infamous lies are an outrage.
Looney has disturbed our delibera-
tions; taken up our time. You know
his purpose. He wants you to help him,
by some conniving trick, to get to be the
owner of telephone company in our
city. A telephone company in the
hands Of a common blackmailer would
ruin the city. You and 1. gentlemen,
must not allow this to happen. 1 am
willing to stand between the people
and this disreputable character,
Looney.
As to Stanton.
In regard to these propositions to buy,
tell you now that L. w. Stanton is
henchman of and booster for this no.
torious John Looney, in fact came here
on a telegram sent by this man. The |

THE NEWSPAPER POET.

The newspaper poets commonplace
The humblest may know what his
poetry means,
But clearness is treason, and SO for this
reason
He never gets into the big maya
zines.
Let others create what is hazy or
crazy,
He makes no pretensions to being
profound;
He's sure, though he rise to the height
of the skies to
Be found right side up when he
lights on the ground.
He's never cynical, sore-headed
critic,
Who feels that the heart of mankind
is untrue;
Ee never gets dreary, but happy and
CHEEKY
His vision of life is an optimist's
view.
I.e's hopelessly fond of the common
place people,
He gilds with a glory the everyday
things,
And lives that have drifted from God
are uplifted
And strengthened and saved by the
songs that he sings!
And so toward the commonplace news
paper poet
The heart of the people most loving
ly leans.
Ills versification is dear to the nation
Though strictly taboo to the big
magazines!

NEW YORK ATTORNEY Is
VICTIM OF BADGER GAME

NEW YORK, September 21.-Mrs. Flor
ence Burns Wildrick, who as Florence
Burns was charged with the murder OF
Walter Brooks in the Glenn Island Hotel
in 1902, and Edward H. Brooks, real
estate salesman, were arrested yesterday
afternoon on the complaint of Charles w.
Hurlbert, a lawyer. who charges them
with having robbed him by means of
what is known as the badger game of
S57 and a note for $500. made payable to
Mrs. Wildrick.
Brooks was arraisned before MAGISTRATE
Steiner in the Jefferson Market court and
held in $1,000 bail for further examina-
tion tomorrow. Mrs. Wildrfck. who was
arrested after the adjournment of court,
was locked up in the Elizabeth street
station, and will be arraigned with Brooks
tomorrow.
According to the story told by Mr.
Hurlbert in court, he was forced. under
threats of death, to sign several declara-
lions in which he accused himself OF
crimes and also to pay over s57 and to
make a note for $500.
Mr.. Hurlbert said he had known Mrs.
Widrick for more than a year, and that
he had often met her by appointment
Sunday night he said he met her and
went to her rooms.
Signs $500 Note.

continued Mr.. Hurlbert. when the door
was burst open and two men rushed into
the room. One of them said he was her
husband. and accused me of crime
I'm fear of my life 1 signed what they
asked and then gave the note for $500 on
the Greenwich Savings Bank. where I
have a deposit. I was kept a prisoner
until nearly o'clock, when a taxicab
was summoned and / was bundled into
1t and taken for a long drive to Yonkers
and back to the city, where l finally
managed to escape"
Mr.. Hurlbert's story was corroborated
in part by papers found i'm the pockets
of Brooks when he was arrested. They
consisted of the confession" and the note
to Mrs. Wildrick for $500.
Mrs. Wildrick denied that there had
been any attempt to work a badger game.
She said that Mr.. Hurlbert and Brooks
were both in love with her. and that Mr.
Hurlbert had given her the note OF hh
