When the women who intended to go

Mr.. EOrsell quoted States Attorney
Thompson's statement that there are
more criminal cases in the courts of
Rock Island county than in any other
of equal population in the state and
called attention to the report by mem
bers of a recent grand jury that 107
out of a given lab cases arising in the
county were due to saloon influence
An appeal was framed asking all

START IMPROVEMENT
OF FIRE Department

Pursuant to plans afoot for the i'm
proving of the fire department the
city commission at its meeting today
decided to purchase a new switch
board to facilitate the sending in of
alarms. Bids will be asked for two
boards, one of eight and the other ten
circuits. If the difference in cost is
not too great the larger one will be
secured, as it will provide for future
needs of the city better than the
smaller one. Bids will be opened Au-
gust l.
There are but two circuits in oper-
alton now. Saturday night one of
these was out of order and an cleo
trician was routed out of bed to re-
pair it. There are AZ boxes on each
circuit, so that for the time being
half of the city was cut off from con-
nection with the fire department. With
the new switchboard not more than
16 boxes will be placed on a circuit
and one or more circuits will be kept
in reserve.
The new cable, for which 81 400 is
being paid, will arrive soon and the
work of putting in the wiring will be
taken up at once. The district be,
tween Twelfth and Twenty-third

HAS STRONG CASE
But FAILS TO WIN
City's Prosecuting of Alleged
Liquor Dispenser Proves
to Be Futile.
JURY FAVORS THE ACCUSED
Too Much Alcohol In Sample of Near
Beer Proved, But II Does
Not Suffice.

James Mavros, dispenser of Wau-
kesha cream ale, otherwise known as
near beer" was found not guilty of
selling liquor of an Intoxicating ma
ture without a license. The verdict
was returned by a jury in Justice
Wheelock's court Saturday evening.
The case is one of the sort that help
drive officers who ~ to enforce the
law into the in sane hospitals.
Mavros had no license to sell liquor
of an intoxicating nature. Waukesha
near beer taken in "a bottle from his
place of business tested i.26 per cent
of alcohol, when examined by City
Chemist l.. A. Fritze. The bottle was
| taken from among number of 9TH
ers just like it ny the city chemist,
who was doing u little detective work
on his own initiative. He did not buy
the bottle, and so the defendant did
not sell it. This point, raised by the
defense, evidently was given some
weight.
| BELIEVED TT WAS SOURED.
H. L. Becker, agent for the Wau
kesha Brewing company, testified
that the company's cream ale, which
is sold in bottles such as the ones in
the city chemists possession, never
contains more than per cent of al
cohol. He thought the bottle in ques
! ton must have been defective, fer
mentation taking place, perhaps, be
cause of air being admitted to it. The
chemist asserted that no alcohol is
added to beer in the souring process

| Only four or five cases of the bev
erage were found on the premises, cor
responding, according to the agent
with the quantity delivered weekly by
his company, this apparently refuting
the suspicion that Mavros had reflleC
the bottles.
In reaching its verdict of net guilty
the jury seems to havo taken the
view that Mavros bought. and solo
the beverage in good faith and should
not, therefore be punished.

offense as Mavros was, and under 500
bonds, did not appear for trial, having
it is claimed, returned to Greece t.
