The Indians have formed probably
the most effective fighting force Of the

to oust the federalists from the state.
They excelled in the border fighting OF
the last few months. By laking the
warpath they not only would demor-

INVASION by the federalists, who appar-
emily have most feared the marksman-

for that reason refused to sign the

HUGE SWINDLE is
UNCOVERED WHEN
ICE is WEIGHED
Davenport Women Are Cheated
Out of $4,000 Each Month
by Dealers.
PEDDLERS ARE ALSO HELD
Weights Short in Every Instance
One Greek Uses Measure so
Per Cent Faulty.

Short weights are cheating the
housewives of Davenport out of $780,
600 a month, according to Iowa State
Deputy Pure Food and Dairy Commits
sioner NJ. E. Flynn, who today filed
charges against four Davenport ice
dealers and five Greek peddlers.
Flynn charges the ice companies
with delivering their commodity 20
per cent short of its supposed weight.
The peddlers he also claims have been
carrying on some rank swindling. In
one case at least the weights were but
half of what they purported to be.
-Four charges were filed against the
Tri-City Plate Ice company, two
against the Davenport Ice and Fuel
company, two against the w. c. Claus
sen Ice company, and one against the
Bettendorf Ice company.
SHORT EVERY TIME.
In only one case where Flynn and
his assistants followed up the ice
men and weighed the ice they left did
they find that the weight was as repre-
scented. In this instance the delivery
men sold S5 pounds for 10 cents, sup
posedly "rake-off' of which the COM
pany knew nothing.
! Frequent cases where "a pounds of
ice were delivered as As pounds and
| 35 for 40 pounds were found by Mr..
Flynn. In general the shortage was
| found to be about 20 per cent of the
actual weight.
GREEKS ALSO GRAFT.
Tom Flinos, one of the five Greeks
held, used a peck measure which
was three quarts short. Joe Christel
had a measure which for rank swim
ding was unequaled. 1t actually held
but half a peck, enabling Christel to
swindle every person to whom he sold
anything out of half of what they
rightfully had coming.
/ |. Zimmerman, J. Goldberg and Is
rael Kindleman were also attempting
to get wealthy at the expense of the
public, their measures running from
one 10 three quarts short of peck.
ATTORNEY TO PROSECUTE.
/. County Attorney Fred Vollmer to
day made the statement that everyon,
found guilty would be prosecuted t,
the limit.
Half of the cases will be tried, prob
. ably tomorrow, in Justice Names OF
flee while the others will be brough
before Justice Daum.
