j Many surmises were made at the time
Regarding the cause of the accident.
! One of these was that Bergquist was
'intoxicated. In her suit, the wife of
the high diver alleges that Clans
KueM and George Mengfl. at that time
proprietors of Grand Isle, sold her hus
band liquor, causing his intoxication.
She further alleges criminal negleet;on
their part in allowing the- u.an to make
the dangerous dive when he was in an
unfit condition owing to his being in
toxicated. -
- Calls Match Off.
The wrestling -match between
Charles Churchill of Indiana and Kid
Lee of London, Kngland. which was
scheduled to take place at Kuehfs hall
on Saturday evening was not pulled off.
Word was received from Church short
ly before the time set for the contest,
to the effect that he had injured his
aim and could not go on the mat.

A delivery team belonging to Swan-
ron & nestling, the west end grocers.

up Fourth avenue. In front of the Tri

avenue, the team fctruek an iron hitch
ing post and manager W. F. Ball of the
company seized one horse. As he did
io the other animal swung round and
kicked in a big plate glass in the store
front. The driver was thrown to the
walk and the horse's leg cut, not so
seriously, however, but what the team
was able to drive off in a few minutes.
J. S. Lands.
For the first time" in a number of
years one of the largest steamers on
the river yesterday touched at the port
of Moline, and the way the people
thronged the river front just from the
love of the mighty river and the great
crafts which ply its waters Is a fore
cast of the activity which may be ex
pected w hen the government lock is con
structed. The steamer J. S. anchored
off Twenty-fifth street, .the present
stage of high water permitting the pi
lot to bring the boat over the wing
dam easily and without mishap, to
take those who wished the outing to
Suburban island.
Sell Grocery Store.
The grocery firm of Calsen & Gripp
at 140l Fifteenth street has disposed
of its store to Louis Sonneville, who
will conduct it in the future. Mr. Uripp
will enter the employ of Mr. Sonue
vil'e, but Mu. Calsen has not yet de
cided on his future.
Molders' Line of March.
The line of march for the Molders'
parade tomorrow previous to their pic
nic at Concordia park will be as fol
lows.the column including the Sixth
Regiment band, the sjA aktrs and offi
cials of the union and members will
leave industrial hall at lu a. m., march
east on Fifth avenue lo Twentieth
street, north to Third avenue, west to
Fiftenth street, south to Five Points,
where cars will be taken to Concordia
park.
Close Call.
Krnest Cox, who resides on Thirty
eight st net and Third avenue, and
who is employed at the .Moline Plow
Company, had a narrow escape from
death Saturday. As it was, he was
seriously hurt. Mr. Cox opened a door
of a storage room, above his head, and
saw a nail-keg fall out. Dodging the
keg. Mr. Cox was struck on the head
by a heavy beam, which followed the
keg out of the storage room. That is
the last Mr. Cox rcmembeed until he
came to consciousness in his home in
the evening. The injured man is get
ting along nieely now, but i; was a
close call to a fractured skull.
More Hoel Room.
The directors of the Manufacturers
hotel met yesterday to dispose of some
regular business. Although nothin
was done at this meeting in regard to
increasing the room capacity of the
institution it is impossible that the
matter wiil come up at the ncx; meet
ing. The recent conventions which
have been held in Moline demoiistiat
ed the fact that, Moline must have
more hotel accommodations. This, how
ever win not ue necessary tnis year as
there are not many more conventions
coming, but it rs only a matter of time
when this must be provided for. Sev
erai ideas nave bet n advanced as to
how to provide the most room. It is
possible now that the Jlrowuing block
in the rear of the Manufacturers hotel
on Sixteenth street, may be purchased
and the building be modified so that
it could be used fur hotel purposes.

a run or j'j ttays nas been com
pleted at the plant of the Fuller Man

when it is planned to have the plant

the closing of the plant, ail the heavy
stock of drills which the company had
stored in its warehouses has been dis-
IKjsed of. The factory will probably
be run steadily in the future. IZ. P
