lY DELIVERY
Of CORN HITS
!, RECORD PRICE

Chicago, May Fresh strength
Aeyeloped in the corn market to-
day, and the highest prices yet this
season were touched by the May
delivery. Absence Of any aggres-
.eive selling had much to do with
the advance.
Unsettled weather counted also
rs = bullish factor. Opening quota
ti0ns, which ranged from Ac de-
cline to sc advance, with July
1.75h to 1.75h, and September
1.621a to 1884, were followed by
material upturns all around and
then something OF setback.
Subsequently, word of active ex-
port buying OF wheat at the top
most figures of the year gave a new
stimulus to the advance in corn.
The close was unsettled. lac to
2Ac net higher, with July 1.77A
to 1.771s, and September, 1.64s to
Lag.
Oats were governed by the action
OF corn. After opening unchanged
to 1ac higher, including July at
93%c to 94c, the market continued
firm.
Provisions hardened a little with
grain and hogs. Demand, though
was inactive.

Moline and East Moline
new CONTRACT
FOR POLICEMEN
Moline Administration May Change
Terms With Railroads Effect
ing Crossing Guards.

The contract between Moline and
the railroads providing Tor the
guarding of eight railroad crossings
in the city by uniformed police
men may soon be revised. The con-
tract was made on a one-year basis
and will soon expire. Members OF
the city administration intimated
that a change would be made at
that time, as the present system
does not provide sufficient protec-
ton to the city against injuries in
CURED by either the policemen or
the public or against damages sus-
tanned by vehicles.
Under present contract the
Rock Island Burlington railroads
pay the wages of the policemen sta
toned on the crossings. The po-
licemen are under control OF the
municipal police department and in
theory are clothed with the same
powers as other officers. The city
fears, it is rumored, that under the
present arrangement, the policemen
are included in the municipal pen
sion system and may demand half
of their income from the city at the
end of 20 years service. Mayor C,
p. Skinner stated today that the ad-
ministration is satisfied with the
general crossing arrangement and
denied that abandonment of the
system is being considered.

CITY CLEANUP IS
PROCEEDING WE'LL
DESPITE THE RAIN

Despite heavy rains last night
and today East Molines cleanup
campaign is progressing nicely with
the hearty cooperation Of everyone,
H. J. Banta, secretary of the Y. NJ.
c. A. and chairman Of the drive,
said today.
Merchants and householders are
complying with the committees re-
quest to put their Easements and
premises in order and our alleys
are looking much better" he said.
IF there are any tin cans they must
be covered up for they are GER
tainly not in evidence"
The campaigners have adopted a
new slogan, Clean Up and Stay
Cleaned Up Authorities are urg-
ing that all merchants purchase
standard rubbish burners in which
refuse can be quickly disposed OF
without scattering ashes and I'M
burned bits over the streets. Mr.
Banta said it had been unnecessary
to spend any of the city's funds in
advertising the campaign, since Or
ganization heads and the press had
made the drive plans known to the
community.
