MAYOR DECIDES
TO PERSONALLY
FIGHT NEW FARE

At o'clock yesterday afternoon
Mayor H. M. Schriver decided to
personally represent Rock Island
in opposing a street car fare raise
at a hearing Of the public utilities
commission in Chicago.
Earlier in the afternoon it was de-
eided to send City Attorney John K.
Scott to accompany the Moline city
attorney, James Johnston, to pro-
test against the increase.
Fear that an immediate decision
might be contemplated by the state
body convinced the chief executive
of Rock Island that Intervention
should be made by local officials as
quickly as possible.
The mayor said it was his inten-
ton to make a forceful complaint
against plans directed to obtain a
7-cent fare on the Illinois side for
the Tri-City Railway company.
The official was surprised upon
hearing that a decision might be
rendered by. the commission within
a few hours. He had Contemplated
no direct action by the state body
at the Chicago hearing. 1t had been
the understanding of the mayor and
commissioners that Rock Island Of
f1cials would be given a proper
chance to be present at hearing of
the body.
That the commission would rem
der a decision at the Chicago ses-
sion had not been at first seriously
considered by the mayor.
II a fare rate above 5 cents is
given, it will not be accepted by the
Rock Island city officials without
further litigation. 1t was stated that
in case a decision of the state body
granted the increase, injunction
proceedings would be started to
keep the present fare rate in force.
1t is held by the officials of Illi-
nois cities that present profits of
the railway company are sufficient.
Mayor Schriver has always favored
an increase in the pay of the street
railway employees, but believes the
increase could be granted without
making the Rock Island public pay
for operations of the company in
Davenport.

HOUSE TARIFF
BILLS TAKEN UP

Washington, July 31.-The tariff
measures to come before congress
since the Republicans regained
control we're on today's house pro-
gram for action. While leaders
planned to dispose Of three bills de-
signed to protect American indus
tries forced into existence by war
necessity, they were doubtful
whether such program could be
forced through the house.
Democrats, though not expected
to be unit in ordering the duty
rates fixed by all the bills, planned
TO fight for continuance Of the pre-
vailing rates or some slightly al
vanced, with legislative provision
being inserted into the bills to pro-
vide for control of imports through
a licensing system Such control,
they said. would give ample pro-
lection to the industries. Repub-
Hcans favoring high tariff pro-
posed to force adoption OF their
measures unchanged.
The bills scheduled for consid-
Grafton included that leyying high
ad valorem duties on chemical,
glassware and apparatus; another
providing a duty of SO a ton ON
tungsten, and the third fixing
duties of $40 a ton ON crude mag
nestle, SIS a ton on finished mag
nestle, and SIS a ton plus 10 per
cent ad valorem on magnesite
brick.

SPRINKIING LAW
TO BE ENFORCED
Especial Moline Service)


To avert a crisis in which the
city will be placed in case Of an
emergency or fire because of the
constant waste of water, the Moline
city administration has authorized
that all persons found guilty of VIC
lating the city sprinkling ordinance
be arrested and prosecuted.
The Moline waterworks is pump
ing 100000 gallons more water to-
day than in normal weather and
orders from the waterworks com
mittee asking people to cooperate
and save the water supply have not
been needed.
Residents whose place is not
equipped with water meters may
sprinkle only between the hours Of
6 and z o'clock in the morning and
z and 8 o'clock in the evening. No
one may sprinkle at any time if
the hose used is<nOt equipped-with
a nozzle or spray and these open
ings must not exceed a quarter
inch in diameter. The ordinance
provides a minimum penalty of IS
for each offense and maximum of
SIS.
In normal weather the water
works pumps three and half mil
lion gallons q daY. Today it is
pumping FIVE and a half millions
of water each day. In a statement
to the mayor and council today S.
z. Buck. superintendent of water
works, and A. Z. Anderson, chem
list, have asked that the public be
asked to adhere strictly to the ordi-
nance governing sprinkling hours.
