AS RESULT OF AN
AUTO COLLISION
Margaret Corl and Sister Ruby
Victims of Crash With a
Long View Car.
DRIVER BECOMES CONFUSED
Turns Directly in Front of Trolley at
Fifth Avenue and TI~en-
tieth Street.

Miss Margaret Corl, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles II. Corl, 3156
Fifth avenue, is lying at St. Anthony
hospital dangerously injured. and her
younger sister Ruby is confined to her
home with painful injuries as the re-
suit of an automobile accident at the
corner of Twentieth street and Fifth
avenue at 5:45 last evening. Mar
garet has not regained consciousness
since the accident and her condition is
very grave. A male friend whose
name was not given out, and who was
sitting in the rear seat with Margaret,
sustained a painful cut on his right
arm. He disappeared shortly after the
collision, saying he was going to a
doctors office.
The two sisters, Margaret and Ruby,
are employed at the Crescent Crack
er & Macaroni company, Davenport.
AS they were leaving the factory with
their friend, he hailed an acquaintance
who was driving by in a car. The
driver offered to take them all home
in the auto, and drove the party over
the bridge. They travelled west on
Third avenue, then south on Twenti-
eth street, and had reached Fifth ave
nue. when the collision occurred.
Turn in Front of Car
Long View Car No. 25S, in charge of
Motorman August Engel and Conduc-
tor NJ. Thompson, was travelling north
on Twentieth street The car had
reached Fifth avenue, when the auto
swung in front of it, not 10 feet away,
and Engel had no chance whatever
to work the brakes or try to avoid the
collision. The car struck the auto
squarely in the center, throwing it
around against the side of the former
and hurting Margaret Corl out. She
fell between the car and the machine
and was dragged a distance of 10 feet.
Had the Long View car been travelling
at a high rate of speed the entire auto
party would probably have been killed
Ruby Corl, in telling of the accident,
stated that they spoke to the driver as
the auto neared Fifth avenue and told
him to turn up, and that he evidently
became confused as he swung directly
in front of the street car.
Did Not See Auto.
Engel said he did not see the auto
until it was directly in front of him
and he had no chance whatever to
avoid the crash. The lights on the
machine were not burning and it was
nearly. dark when the collision oc-
CURED. Numerous pedestrians were
on the street at this hour and crowd !

The automobile body was damaged
and the rear axle bent out of shape. |
Only the fender of the street car was
damaged.
Ruby Corl states that neither her
sister nor herself knew the men with |
whom they were riding. The auto |

CHANCE OF
SITE FOR A JAIL
People Advocating Securing
Another Location for the
County BastiIe.

Now that the new county Jail is as
sured there is much agitation in Rock
Island for change in the location of
the bastile with a view to tearirc
down the present structure and CIV
ing the space for a full court house
square.
People in discussing the affair point
to the plan used in most counties
which are erecting new county jails.
In the main the idea has been to Sc
cure a location other than on the court
house square, thus giving the county
building a lawn and spot for flower
beds entirely around the building.
1t is believed that a suitable Ioca-
ton could be secured here, away from
the court house yard, and still not SO
far away from the building as to
cause any inconvenience.
