Howard McCIean who lives at River Cliff, was recently the manager of a saloon in Bridgeport, and his actions for some time back have aroused the interest of the To- cal police with the result that they visited his homo last evening, and brought away with them four cases, each containing two dozen bottles of whiskey. When they found all this stuff, and as they have evidence that it was there for the purpose of sale they placed the wife of the man under arrest. This is the largest amount of liquor seized hereabouts in a long time, and is more than most people thought could be here under present conditions.

sY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, March Succeeding an active opening, mainly at irregular advances, today's two hour session of the stock market experienced a selling movement, presumably for profits, which cancelled most of the early gains.
 United States Steel was again the leader, advancing to the new high of the year of 100 5-S, but lost all its gain and an additional fraction.
 Pools lifted hide and leather prefer red and American Can in the later dealings, and some of the more ma terial losses were partly overcome, but steels and associated issues held at lowest levels. Sales amounted to 60O,- GOO shares.
 Further demoralization occurred in the foreign exchange market.
 Bonds eased in most branches, the Liberty divisions shading when the fourth 1-4's fell to the new low of 93.64. United States coupon and reg istered 2's gained 1-4 per cent on call during the week.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, March 22.-Stocks sought higher levels this week, the chief factor in the further advance being the decision of the steel trade to reduce prices of finished and semi finished products from 10 to about Is per cent.
 A reassuring feature in view of sporadic labor deficiencies, was the concurrent statement that the down ward revision would not involve any change of wages, except in isolated instances.
 Rails occupied their recent incon spicuous place, but displayed better tendencies later in the week on an nouncement that the finance corpora tion had formulated plan for their immediate requirements.

Prohibitionists ascribe more cred

perintendent of the New York An
ti-Saloon league, than to any other
individual. Mr.. Anderson was born
in Carlinville, Ill, As years ago to-
day. His mother, a Methodist,
raised him to temperance princi-
pies. At the age of 10 he became
an ardent prohibitionist. After
graduating from the University of
Michigan law school he decided to
devote his life to fighting the
liquor traffic. He was state super
intendent of the Anti-Saloon league
successfully in Illinois, Maryland
and New York. In Illinois he draft
ed the local option law which ere
ated nearly one thousand dry"
townships almost over night. In
New York and elsewhere through
out the United States Mr.. Anderson
has become noted for his slam

Seven-Cent Fares.

seven-cent car fires are here and nobody
will be much surprised. Inspired by Wall
street a food of propaganda has spread over
the country. Public utilities corporations
pooled their interests and hammered away for
greater returns and now they are getting them.
What took place in other centers made it easy
10 surmise what would take place here.
On this side of the river higher fares go
into effect tomorrow. Davenport has promised
TO duplicate through it's city council the act Of
the Illinois public utilities commission, but it
will take some time to make 7-cent fares eff
fective on the Iowa side. In the meantime we
shall continue to help pay the Davenport deficit
and we shall doubt do resignedly, since
It has long been a habit, especially among Rock
Islanders, to support Davenport institutions.
There is some consolation in the knowledge
that the employees Of the company to get
at least part of the increase. For the rest we
shall expect the Tri-City Railway company to
treat US exceedingly well We shall look for
quick action in patching pavement between
the tracks, installing new switches. painting
and repairing the rolling stock and renewing
some of the shaky copper circuits.
We assume that it is the intention of the
company to add new cars as needed and pro
vide trippers during rush hours on all lines
where traffic is heavy. A lot of extra service
and special consideration are due in return for
the 40 per cent increase in revenue that the
public will pay.
On top Of it all we shall expect the COM
pany to refrain from floating additional securi-
ties on the strength of the advance and to rem
der faithful account Of its finances so that
when conditions justify scent fares may be
restored. The public utilities commission will
be held accountable for any lapse that may
occur under this head.

THE SOUTH WIND.

The south wind seeks my cot
tage door and gently bids me saun-
ter forth. 1t does not come with
fiendish roar like it's rude brother
of the north, but with a voice like
singing birds it calls me out among
the flowers and wooes me with the
honeyed words of lovers and en-
chanted bowers. 1t comes from
CULTS where sunbeams play, from
wales where orange blossoms grow,
from scented islands far away,
from lands where languid rivers
flow. 1t sings of haunts where
fairies dwell, of groves of dewey
mystery: it weaves its magic spell
around the weary heart of me. And
1 can sense the fragrant rose and
hear the sound of lulling streams
that drift me on with sweet repose
to twilight lands of love and
dreams. The south wind seeks my
cottage door and enters there, a
welcome guest; it does not come
with angry roar, but with song
of peace and rest. 1t whispers to
the lonely pine, it kisses me with
lips of dew-and shall it not, oh,
heart of mine, breathe one soft
word of hope to you?
