Action was taken by the city COM
mission a little more than a week ago

city banks of Rock Island. The officials
communicated with the officers of the
five banking institutions iE Rock Is

amount be advanced on the taxes of
the ensuing year. The bankers held a
meeting and it was decided TO find how
much the city would need to carry it
through the present year, which ends
April 1, 1912. That action was report
ed TO Mayor Schriver and Commission
er Rudgren by II. E. Casteel.
PREPARING ESTIMATES.
AS yet no further action has been
taken, but the commissioner of &C
counts and finances will draw up an
estimate of the amount needed and
then the deal will be closed. This
does not mean that the entire amount
will be advanced to the city in a lump,
but that arrangements will be made
whereby the commission will be able
to borrow the necessary funds as the
bills come due.

NATIONAL LIFE IS
TO SELL ASSETS
Such Is Gist of Story Which
Appeared in Chicago Pa
per This Morning.
STOcKHOL TO MEET
Will Gather at Head Office in This
City Tuesday Admitted TO
Talk Finances.

The following story appeared in
the Chicago Record-Herald this
morning:
The stockholders of the Ameri-
can National Life of Rock Island will
ton for the sale of its assets. A re-
insurance of the business in force
would naturally be involved.
The American National was organ
lied in 1907 by H. H. Cleaveland for
many years a leading agent at Rock
Island. NJ. P. Wore, formerly with
the German National in Chicago, is
secretary and manager. It is under
stood that the operations Of the
company have not been profitable,
owing to the high loss ratio and the
difficulty a small company has in get
ting a foothold in the better agen-
cies.
In November, 1909, $4,000 was
contributed by the stockholders to
increase the surplus account. The
surplus went down s31,737 last
year and some of the stockholders
objected to the further increase in
funds asked for this year"
UP TO STOCKHOLDERS.
Secretary NJ. p EaTs this morning
refused to discuss the company's
financial status. He said that the
article above quoted was a little
premature but admitted that the SO
stockholders of the company were
scheduled to meet Tuesday and that
they would then consider steps SINH
lar to those suggested in the Chi
cago paper. However" he said,
none of the policy holders need
fear that they will suffer in the
slightest degree through any action
that the stockholders may see fit to
take. They will be fully protected"

BIG TREE TRUNK DID It
Hole Punched Entirely Through Hull
and Dock Of Wharfboat-Mys-
terry is Solved.

The fall OF the river since the
sinking of the big wharfboat has beer
about FIVE feet. The rate Of fall has
been steadily increasing and in a
few days the boat will be high and
dry.
The exact cause of the sinking OF
the boat is now definitely known. A
large log about two feet in diameter
did the work. 1t Is evidently por
tion OF tree stump, the base of
which rests upon the ground. Yes
terday morning owing to the falling
river the upper end of the log was
forced entirely through the deck OF
the boat, bursting through the heavy
flooring, making large hole. The
tree stump having been lodged I'M
der the boat among other accumula-
lions OF drift, stood upright and the
weight OF the wharfboat upon 1t sup
plemented by the action Of the waves
made by the wind and by steam
boats in the harbor, accomplished the
result.
The heavy gangway to the second
floor of the boat was removed yes
terday to relieve as mach weight as
possible from the center of the boat.
The boat is badly twisted, but it is
now thought that there is some
chance OF saving it.
The barge placed below the wharf
boat for the receipt and delivery OF
freight has two driveways. Mr. Hal
iday may build an office on the
barge to be more conveniently To-
,ated for business. All freight will
