president emeritus of Harvard univer-
sity, returning from a tour OF the
orient in connection with the world
peace movement, declared in an ad-
dress here that neither China nor
Japan favored disarmament. Such a
course would be impossible for Japan,
he said, because OF its insular posi-
ton, which rendered it necessary for

japanese war scares of recent years
as absurd. The only hope OF world.

dresses land the signer in Long View
park, others up on telegraph poles and
some out in Rock river. Such things
will kill the recall petition. In one in
stance, one mans name appeared six
different times, and there are numer-
Gus other instances where duplicate

recall move neglected to afix the date

dating their hieroglyphic.
And so with hundreds of instances
where the names have not been writ

where there have been forgeries,

General objections TO the recall pc

by the attorneys for Mayor II. N.

the petition and the counter petition
with the clerk of either the county or

Hon William McEniry, II. a.
Weld and Jackson, Hurst & Stafford
have already prepared the objections
and all will be in readiness when the
time for action arrives. For the time
being, the forces back OF the recall
will content themselves with making
their objections general. When the
petitions come into court for hearing,
then will specific cases OF error be
pointed out and the request made that
the names be stricken from the petit
ton as Illegal.
CONFIDENT OF VICTORY.
The officials who are being fought
by the recall leaders are confident
that they will have more than enough
names stricken from the list and that
the bona fide signatures will diminish
TO a number far from sufficient TO ev-
en- warrant the thought of invoking
the recall election. A hot legal battle
is the expectation Of all.
The publication Of the names has
thus far brought good results for
those who oppose the recall. Many
qualified voters appeared at the

TOSSED CHILD IN
To MISSISSIPPI
Body of Girl, Bound Hand and

OFF Davenport Shore.
THREE SUSPECTS ARE HELD
Police Are Dragging River In Hopes
of Locating Victim of Brazen
Murder.

That they had seen two husky men
toss little girl, bound hand and foot,
into the Mississippi river of the tres
tie work of the Milwaukee railroad
bridge and near to the Davenport
shore, was the startling information
given to the Davenport police by Louis
and Thomas Truesdale, two Davenport
boys, aged 6 and IL years, respective
ly. The boys say that while they were
playing on the Davenport river bank
near the foot of Division street. in the
west end of the city, at 8 o'clock this
morning, two men walked out on the
trestle Of the bridge, carrying the
childs inert body. One held his hand
over her mouth to prevent her scream
ing
CHILD SCREAMS.
AS they tossed the body into the
waters, the child emitted a blood-curd-
ling scream. Without stopping to see
that the child even landed in the wat
cry grave beneath, the men started
away on run. The two boys who had
been witnesses of the tragedy fastened
at once to police headquarters. All of
the nets of the law were put out at
once and this afternoon it was report
ed that three suspects had been taken
AS yet, no report Of a missing child
has come to the attention of the police.
1t may be that the child was the daugh-
ter of one of the men.
DRAGGING THE RIVER,
The Davenport police are dragging
the river below the railroad bridge in
the hope that they will be able to re-
cover the body and in that way gain a
clew which will lead to the identity,
and then to the arrest of the men who
perpetrated the deed.
