FIREmEn FIGHT A
DANGEROUS BLAZE

Forced to battle with fire in the
midst Of overpowering acid fumes, the
fire department shortly before IL
o'clock this morning COPIED with one
of the most troublesome blaZes in its
history, when a leaking carboy OF
nitric acid set fire to the old Milwau-
kee freight house at the corner of
First avenue and Twentieth street,
now utilized by Hartz & Bahnsen as
a store room.
The vessel had cracked and the
nitric acid leaked out on the floor
early this morning, but the men about
the place paid no attention to IL
Shortly before II o'clock, the heat and
the action of the acid set fire to the
building. The fumes, which are ex-
/ ceedingly dangerous, arose in a cloud
and employees in the building were
forced 10 fee. When the firemen ar
rived they stretched a line of hose
and opened two doors thus allowing
the fumes to escape, to a degree, but
many of the men were nearly over
come The damage was nominal.

STATE SURVEY IS
NEARING AN END
WORK IN MILAN QUADRANGLE
EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETE
IN NEXT TWO WEEKS.
WORKING FOR TWO YEARS
Maps to Be Made Showing Topography
Of Land and Geological Forma-
tlons-Many 6orinss.

Professor ]. A. Udden. geologist in
the department of economic geology
and technology in the state university
of Texas. is in Rock Island and work
ing this summer in the EMPLOY of the
state geological survey. completing
work which has been under way or
the past two years in this section
known as the Milan quadrangle. At
the same tine the state srrvev is
completing the work on tho tor3gra-
phical maps for this section.
The Milan quadrangle is a 3e;Iion
extending a little east OF Moline,
north a trifie beyond the government:
island, west three miles beyond Anda-
lusia ard then south to a line inter
secting Edwards river. In this sec
ton. the men CT the survey, with
their instruments, get the height of
eve'l part of the land to within 1ve
feet and then on a map mark every
variation of 90 feet. They also mark
all rivers borings mines and other
Il aces which are o. interest TO those
desiring to study the quadrangle in
detail. These maps are printed by
the state and are sent out for general
use to those who need them.
MAKING MAP OF SECTION.
Dr. Cdden is making a geological
map of this section, finding all of the
outcrops of different strata of rock,
following up the creeks, and noticing
the various rocks which are to be
found. examining borings and finding
what strata lie beneath the surface,
locating artesian wells and making
borings for coal. More than 400 Dor
ings for coal have been made in this
quadrangle. This work is now near
! ing its completion and by next Janu,
airy. DR.. Udden hopes TO have his
work complete and ready for the
state printer. The maps will proba,
/ bly, be out in about a year as the
work is nearly done.
| WORK ELSEWHERE.
| Similar work has been done in
many parts of Illinois, especially
along the Illinois river, and it Is now
the desire of the state to complete
the work. Some states have their
maps complete while others have not
commenced the work yet, The work
when complete is very valuable and
contains complete scientific informa
tion about the country, rock and so;
both.

BRICK TRUST MAY
MEET A REBUFF
Rock Island

1t may be that after all the brick
trust is not going to put over it's plan
of forcing the use of it's product in
the re-paving of Nineteenth street be-
tween Second and Third avenue. Mem
bers of the park board speaking to-
day on behalf OF the city, stated that
as far as they were concerned, they
had not been consulted as to the
wishes of the property owners and
added that they favor asphalt. They
control the whole east side Of the
street between Second and Third ave
nue.. What is more, it seems that
when the majority Of the property
owners on the west side of the street
are consulted, they too will favor the
asphalt.
Regarding the section of the street
between First and Second avenue,

Lorimer. While this commission was
in session, Clarence S. Funk, general
manager of the International HaT-
vester company, testified that he had
been asked by Edward Hines, the
wealthy lumbeTman, who had been
closely interested in the Lorimer case
in the senate, to give $4,000 of
100000 fund to help put Lorimer
over at Springfield" This created
another sensation and resulted in the
reopening of the case in the senate.
\ special committee of eight began
a reinvestigation of the case. Once
more the sordid stories of alleged
bribery and corruption were dragged
out and once more the numerous
confessions" made their appearance.
Nearly one hundred and sixty wit
nesses were examined.

report cOndemning him. Again the
1ebfte began and for months the
matter was under discussion. Finally
an agreement was reached that vote
be taken on the Legislative day OF
July G--iast Saturday. But the de-
bate again grew bitter and by re-
cessing instead of adjourning the

DEFEAT ENDS 2-YEAR
FIGHT FOR LORlMER

(Continued from Page One.I
bribery and corruption, elimination
and recrimination, indictments, trials
and confessions galore have filled
the history of the case. Today's vote
in the senate ended one of the most
sensational legislative imbroglios
that the country has ever known.
WHITE STORY RESPONSIBLE.
1t began April 80, 1910, about a
year after the election of Lorimer to
the senate with the publication in
the Chicago Tribune of a story by
Charles A. White, a member OF the
Illinois legislature exposing corrup-
ton in that body and charging that
White had been bribed to vote for
Lorimer for senator. Lorimer was
elected by combination of demo-
/ Gratis and republicans in the legislat-
ure. Shortly after the publication of
the White story the new senator
arose in the senate chamber and de-
manded an investigation of his cleo
ton. i senate investigation was or
dered sRnd a committee headed by
Senator Burrows republican, Michi-
gan took up the task. For nearly
four months, September 70 December,
/ 1910. the committee took testimony
I at Chicago and Washington and final
4 ly submitted a report generating
Lorimer. A minority report, how
ever, presented by Senator Beveridge
- I'D -
against Lorimer. After a lengthy de-
bate in the course of which Lorimer
delivered a sensationally brilliant
speech defending himself, the major
ity report was adopted by the senate
March l. 1911, by a vote of g TO o.
five not voting.
STATE Is STARTLED.
Meantime the case had startled ii.
linois and the state was ablaze with
the developments. Indictment after
indictment was found against the
members of the Legislature which
elected LOrimer. White had con
fessed" that he was given 81 900 by
Representative Lee O'Neil Browne
democratic leader of the legislature
and $500 by Representative Robert
o. Wilson to vote for Lorimer
Browne was indicted for bribery Al
his first trial the jury disagreed and
al the second trial he was acquitted
Charges of jury bribing in connec-
ton with his acQuittal were made but
jury which tried the, jury bribery
case disagreed. Representative vii
son and Michael s. Link were indict-
ed for perjury.
