SITE DISCUSSED
FOR SANATORIUM
Commission Held Informal Ses
sion This Morning to Con-
slider Matter.

The city commission in informal
session this morning, discussed with
local doctors the matter of location
for the proposed tuberculosis sana-
forum. 1t will be remembered that
the site first suggested for the insti-
tuition was so bitterly opposed that it
was decided to locate it elsewhere.
The council also read a communi-
cation from the board of supervisors
relative to the bridges which the city
attempted to deed to the city. The
county declined the gift, alleging that
the city had been paid a big sum by
the Tri-City Railway company for a
franchise for the use of the bridges
for period of 20 years and that If the
county took them over now, the street
car company would not contribute for
a period of Is years a single cent to
ward the maintenance of the bridges.

Member of Visiting Party Com
merts on Possibilities Of
the Tri- cities.

The Chicago association Of COM
merce special train departed from Dav
export yesterday over the Burlington.
H. ". Crawford, division freight
agent of the C., B. & O., chaperoned
the party u Monmouth and Galesburg.
He talked with practically every men,
Der of the delegation and found them
unanimous in stating that at no place
visited had they found q more cordial
reception than that offered them in
the tri-cities.
Chairman Mann Of the delegation
gave Mr.. Crawford the following state
ment showing the cordial feeling he
has towards the tTi-city people.
Throughout the entire state our
reception has been uniformly cordial,
but at no point on the trip has the
delegation seemed TO feel more at
home than during the day which we
spent in Rock Island, Moline and
Davenport The majority Of our del
egation are not strangers to the bus
/ mess men of these cities, but il was
the first time that many of our men,
bors had had an opportunity TO see
not only the industries but the beau
ties of these towns, and the express
sions Of surprise at the beautiful
/ homes, streets and scenery were many
and sintere. The day is ore that
will lingcr long in the minds and mem
/ DRY Of the members Of our party. Our
one regret was that instead of divid.
! ing our day between the three cities
VIC could not have given a day to
each
1t does not require a prophet TO
! forcsoe that in this remarkable group
0 three hustling, busy enterprising
| cities, within a radius of a very few
miles. there will be one of the great
est commercial and manufacturing
B oenters Of the entire United States.
/ The fact that they are under three sep.
a-ate city and two state governments
does not detrlct from their commercial
possibilities. and with the bOundless
resources ard unbounded energy and
enterprise of their business men there
is certainly q wonderful future ahead
for this great business community
provided they will combine their en-
orgies and resources through the med
ium of their commercial organization:
on every question of public policy
which effects not alone. their own par
ticular city, but the district of which
they are the center. For, in such co
operation lies the future not alone o
this community but of every commun
ity similarly situated"

paths Of rectitude by their enemies.
George Huntley, who operates priv

at which time he was in a state OF
coma He was taken to the police
station and slowed safely away in a

The party was taken down the river
on the steamer Marquette. and after
arriving at Linwood several ball
teams were organized and the bankers
at once plunged into the cardinal sport
Of the nation. The athletic game
were followed by a fried spring chic
en- dinner, after which the picnickers
returned 10 their homes.
A big feature was the baseball game
of the afternoon. The Iowa clerks de-
feated the Illinois clerks by a score

feated the Illinois squad by a score Of

uuaffing it, began to solicit business
for his burglar alarm. Several other
sodas followed the general direction
taken by the first, and after lengthy
session Detective Huntley departed
the saloon and seated himself in the
shine parlor in the alley at the rear
of the New Harper. Suddenly, and
without warning, the heat became
very oppressive, and the burglar alarm
agent made high dive to the pave
ment, head first. The police were
called and Huntley was locked up.
This morning he claimed he was
strictly temperate and told the judge
he had unbeknown been handed
something with kick to it. He also
claimed to have been robbed of his
Chronometer.
VANCE TAKES SELTZER.
Detective Vance stated he drank
two whiskeys and then hit the lemon
and settler route. He was standing
up to the bar when he suddenly col
lapsed. The porter was called and
the gum shoe artist was laid out in
an adjacent alley, pending the arrival
of the patrol. Vance's mind was a
blank this morning, and he had no
recollection of the time at which he
was arrested. Both sleuths were on
the job tate this morning, although
both complained of being a trifie
shaky. No clue had been obtained as
to the identity of the party who
'frisked" Detective Huntley for his
