BASEBALL FOR
MOLINE is SURE
Pillow City Develops Enthusiasm for
National Game, but Rock Island
is Unknown Quantity.

Moline is to have organized base
ball in the Three-Eye league this
season.
This was the decision reached at
booster meeting held at the Manu-
facturer's hotel at noon today I'M
der the auspices of the Moline Ro-
tary club. The pillow city will make
the sixth to pledge a club in the
eight team circuit as planned, the
others already assured being, Rock
ford, Bloomington, Terre Haute,
Evansville and Peoria.
Favorable prospects to round out
the eight club circuit are Moline,
Richmond and Fl. Wayne, while
there is a chance that Rock Island
may be given a franchise, depending
upon local sentiment.
At the meeting in Moline enthus-
iastic speeches were made by John
White, vice president of the Peoria
Fans association, and Al D. Amer,
director of the same organization,
who, accompanied by a delegation
of boosters, arrived in the twin
cities from Peoria last night
Immediate steps will be taken to
push Tue CdIlpdiSA WHICH was OPEN
ed at the Rotary meeting today. An
organization similar to the Peoria
Fans association is to be formed,
and a committee was appointed to
promote the sale of stock at $40 a
share. The association will also
back wrestling, football, and box
ing. if the latter sport is counten-
anced by the state legislature.
Whether there is a possibility of
Rock Island taking up the PROPOSE
ton is yet unknown. John Ryan,
president of the Peoria Fans asso-
citation, did not arrive here last
ntsht as planned, being in Spring
field boosting for the passage of
the boxing bill in the state legisla-
ture. He is expected here within
the next few days, and upon his
corning a meeting is planned to be
called in this city.

BETTER SERVICE
CAMPAIGN SHOWS
RESULT OF WORK

The efforts being made through
out the country to induce express
shippers to pack their goods more
substantially and the results that
have been accomplished were dis
cussed at the fourth in a series of
meetings of the express employees,
held at the local express office, 314-
BIG Twentieth street, last night, in
charge of the better service cam
paign committee.
The business men and CONNER
cial bodies of Rock Island are Civ
ing their cooperation in the move
ment. by examining and improving
the methods of their shipping de-
Uartments. A marked improvement
in the appearance and condition of
shipments turned over to the ser
vice has been noticeable and the
express agent expects a decided re-
duction in the number Of shipments
sent to mo mark" bureaus, which
are the dead letter" offices of the
express business.
In f0ur-minute talks to the ex-
press men no little emphasis was
laid upon the seriousness of the
situation for the company in the
number of claims pressed against
it from causes for which it was
found not TO be responsible. The
aggressive internal campaign being
conducted among the operating
forces of the express business, is
expected to remove the causes at
tributed to carelessness in the or
ganizatiOn.
The express employees were in
structed not only to see that the
packing and marking rules are fol-
lowed. in all shipments they &C
cepted, but to give their full coop
Grafton to the shippers in bringing
their methods of preparing con-
signments up to the necessary
standards. Much of the time of the
local campaign committee has been
given up to visiting shipping con-
Germs and helping them along these
lines.
Copies of a miniature newspaper,
entitled For Better Service is
sued weekly during the drive, were
distributed This paper. which is
full of wit and clever hits at cur
rent evils in the business, furnish
ed a subject of lively comment at
the meeting.

UTILITIES BODY
WILL REMAIN, BUT
WITH LESS POWER

CURLING the power of the state
utilities commission so as to leave
cities and villages with their former
contractural right in dealing with
public service corporations will
satisfy those who have been de-
manding a change in the present
Illinois law.
This is the word that comes from
Springfield, where a public hearing
on the matter was held yesterday
The movement to do away with the
commission is said to have suffered
a check. A bill drawn to meet the
wishes Of the Home Rule Municipal
league will be introduced and the
DUvaU repeating measure will not
be pressed. it is understood
