whether he will recover.
Moore, veteran employee Of the Re-
public Iron and Steel Works, had
been sent by the Office clerk to mail
letter on the train. He noticed the
eastbound train approaching when he
reach the track between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets, and thinking
it was the one on which the letter was
to be sent, made an effort to reach the
Rock Island station before the train
He was evidently not aware Of the
proximity of the train and as result
was Oh uCh hHu lAio"u III ouSn o mon-
ner as to tear OFF his right hand. The
skull was also fractured, but was not
denied and it is on this that hopes
of his recovery are based.
Outcome Uncertain.
Drs. Arp, Bennett and Carlton were
called and the former had the man
removed to the Moline city hospital.
1t will probably be several days be-
fore exact extent OF the injuries are
ascertained.
Moore is married. He has been an

the head and left arm. Doctors fear,
however, that he may have inhaled the
flames, destroying the tissue in his
bronchial tubes and lungs. If this is
the case they say he will suffer pneu-

The accident today is the first time
that the officer has been injured in

For the past three weeks, since

Officer Fitzgerald has been retained
at headquarters as a reserve. Among
his other duties was that of stocking
the furnace. This morning the fire
seemed TO lag and the city hall was
chilly. He secured tin cup and filled
it with kerosene, his purpose being
TO give the fire fresh start.
After opening the door of the fur
mace he tossed the contents of the
cup into the interior. The blaze shot
out. The clothes on the upper part
of his body afiame, he ran yelling into
the desk sergeant's Office. Sergeant
Flanagan tried to jerk a towel from
the wall to throw on him, but failing
in that, attempted to pat the flames

why the entire $4,000 should not be
expended at present, chief among them
being the fact that the new Augustana
hospital is now nearing completion
and no definite action should be taken
until it is seen what effect the opening
of that institution will have on the city

rates at the city hospital should be
changed for the benefit of Moline tax
