Lets take -he thing in sequence
When Mayor Marx was nominated in
1912. John Gillespie took ais coat OFF and
worked night and aa: for NarN, his
friend
Marx was elected
Frank H. Croul was police commits
s--lcr
There wasn't what the department
knows ass a "big crook in town.
The big crooks" were all giving De
,roit wide berth
Crou' had taken the department our If
politics.
Croul had to step aside 10 permit Marx
to pay q political debt and make John
Gillespie police commissioner
Gillespie Immediately pst the depart
ment back into politics and gave the
mayor a police whistle with which 70 cal
the department any time he needed it.
Il was a very loud whistle.
The mayor blew 1t so often that it was
impossible TO hear the explosions Of
nitro-glycerine caving in the doors Of
safes
1t WAS impossible % hear the cries Of
Help" from citizens facing guns in the
hands Of highwaymeu.
1t was impossible 20 hear the cracking
OF pistols as pay cars were being held up
and robbed in the streets.
Now Gillespie is called upon to per
form his last political service 70 his
mayor
He must step down and out.
And petl may he freely paraphrase the
quotation that is suggested TO Judge Con
molly by the situation, the famous death
bed lament Of Cardinal Wolsey. and say
Had but served my town as faith
fully as | have served my mayor. il
would not desert me in my extremity. -

NEWYORKATTAC
FOUND BASELESS

New York, Jan. 24.-Complaints
that concrete emplacements for plac-
ing guns have been erected in more
than a score of places threatening the
defenses of New York harbor, Long
Island Sound, or the Hudson river,
have been investigated by government
agents within the last six months. In
no instance were the suspicious of the
compliments verified. The reports
which reached government authorities
in Washington, were, however, of
such character as to compel investi-
cation. In one instance the govern
ment agents were told that emplace-
ments were being erected on Staten Is
land to support guns which could de-
molish Forts Hamilton and Wadsworth
and the lower part Of New York City.
The investigators were able to dis
cover at the point indicated only a
shallow concrete surface for a tennis
court. Reports Of emplacements in
Connecticut to command Long Island
Sound and on the Hudson river in
range Of the navy ordnance depot at
Iona Island, were found to be equally
baseless.

SEEK A CAR LINE
ON MOLINE BRIDGE
Moline Officials Will Ask Permit of
Government in Connection
With New Span.

At a joint meeting, to be held next
Friday, in which will participate men,
bers of the Moline city council, repre-
sentatives of the Manufacturers asso-
citation and a subcommittee of the
Greater Moline committee, improve
ment of the street car service on the
East Moline and Prospect park lines
and tentative moves toward the con-
struction of street car line from
Third avenue, Moline, across the Fiji
teenth street bridge to Rock Island
arsenal, will be taken up.
The matter was brought to a head
at meeting of the city council this
morning when the subcommittee from
the Greater Moline committee appear
ed and addressed the council A. C.
Wander Vennet isrchairman of the COM
mittee. Members are George Cramp-
ton, Ed Coryn and Elmer Morgan.
The suggestion that an agitation be
started for the construction of car
line across the new bridge is prompt
ed by plans said to be under consid-
Grafton by the government to construct
a new bridge from Fifteenth street,
Moline, to the arsenal.
Members of the committee that ap-
peared before the council this morning
asserted that building of such line
would be one of the most important
improvements, looking toward com
mercial advantages, undertaken in
Moline in years.
At present, it was declared, Rock
Island and Davenport are deriving by
far the greater benefit Of the arsenal,
for the reason that their workmen
have easier access to the island than
they have from Moline. Construction
Of line across the Fifteenth street
bridge would offer the best transpor-
tation facilities to the island and
would eventually result in a larger
population in Moline and an increase
in business.
1t was the opinion of the committee
that the matter should be taken ur
with the street car company at once
in order that, should the government
decide to build the bridge, everything
would be in readiness to construct the
car line.
Suggestions were also offered by the
committee in regard to present street
car service in Moline.
