Robbers Efforts in Valn.-DuTing, the

between Third and Fourth streets.
Entrance to the building was effected
by means OF a rear window, the sash
OF which was entirely removed. Once
inside the building, the thief Tansack-
ed the place. but could find no money
1t is not known whether or not the
robbers carried away any of the IL
quor or cigars, as a cursory inventory
disclosed no loss.
Many Want Commission Job.-Ap-
plications for the appointment to the
Office of police and fire commissioners
will not be scarce when the time comes
for the appointment Of the new board
The names OF q half dozen men were
handed in and as many more are men
toned for the place. Some of these
are prominent business and profes-
sional men, but whether or not they
would accept the place we're it tender
ed to them, remains TO be seen. The
appointment Of the new board will
probably be made at the next meeting
of the city council. which is Feb. 5.
The removal OF Commissioner Chris

through his disqualification for the Of
flee and the subsequent announcement
Of Mayor Mueller that he would re.
quest the city council 10 vote for the

Demurrage Charge $500 DaiIy.-De-

ufacturing concerns at present are
amounting to 5000 daily. This is a
condition not unusual for this time
Of year, though it tells an eloquent
story of the pace under which the
implement factories of the city are
being operated. insufficient trackage
and inability to secure men to load
and unload cars, is given as the cause
for conditions now existing. 1t was
necessary for Deere e. Mansur Co. to
press a crew into work on Sunday
at the Twenty-seventh street storage
sheds. In the main Deere plant
part Of the force is working 10 hours
a day, others are putting in IL hours,
six days a week The number now
employed on the night shift is about
100; these men being engaged almost
exclusively in loading cars with man
ufactured product and in unloading
raw material In the shops of the
Moline Pillow company the 12-hour
daily schedule is still in operation,
and indications are that there will be
no change in the program for some
weeks to come.
Options on Property Asked.-Prop-
erty on the north side of Fifth ave-
nue. between Eighteenth and Nine
teenth street-directly across the al
| ley from the site selected for the new

| is being sought. 1t is understood
that no options have yet been given,
but it is also understood that in the
deal for which negotiations are now
opened, the corner properties of Peter
Peterson and of J. S. Gilmore are al
so desired. Horstkamp and Sherman
have asked R. w. Rank for an option
on the property at the northwest cor,
ner of Fifth, avenue and Seventeenth

asked If he would sell his present

that members of First Congregational
