Deck . Fiht Arrest f tbe Latter Otber Law Violators. A regular old time St. Louis levee row occurred at ihe Diamond Jo landing shortly after the arrival of the Sidney from down the river, at about 10:45 o'clock, last nisht. First Mate O'Connor was aboard the boat asleep and the handl ing of the freight was being looked after by the second mate a young fellow known on the boat as . "Charley." who had just received his papers as second mate hav ing been a deckhand on the boat since the beginning of the season. In the freight house the mate known as Charley" got into a dispute with a colored "rooster" named William Hawk ins and told him to go on the boat or be would blow his brains out. The rooster placing his hand on his pistol pocket ran out of tbe house and behind a back that was standing near by and told the mate who was fol lowing him with a revolver in his hand to shoot if he dare. It is not known dosU tively who fired the first shot, but in a few seconds the air was full of bullets. people, hacks, "roosters," profanity, etc.. during which time Hawkins escaped to Davenport, and Skip Day-s horses took fright and ran to the Taylor house barn, where they were caught. The police arrived about 10 minutes afterward, but the "rooster" was gone and the mate was aboard tbe boat, so that no arrests were made. Hawkins was afterward captured in Davenport, and will have his hearing before Magistrate Wivill this evening. POLICE POINTS. W. Q Brown, an erstwhile dude with a fairbaircd pompadour and an air of importance, looked a little wilted as he removed his silk hat in the presence of Magistrate Wivill this morning. He was found by Night Captain Long and Officer Schaab "snowed under" at the Peoria de pot last night and was kindly assisted to the armory, and the magistrate assessed him $5 and costs this morning, which he paid and went his way. "Henry Scott and "May Morgau ' who were taken to the station by Officers Bet ter and Schaab last night for disorderly conduct, were each fined 5 and costs by Magistrate Wivill this morning May is a well known charac ter about town, bavicg been urrested before for indulging in a fistic encounter with anjther "sister in sin. She is not very prepossessing in appear acce, ana nas a voice liae a tired man. The pair were locked up until they could secure tbe necessary wherewith to liquid ale. Patrick Daily was arrested by Night Captain Long last evening for raising a row at the Milan street railway office, where he bad some wages due. Tbe trouble was due to Patrick's over indul gence in "the iuice of the forbidden fruit," which made him rather noiej. He talked to tbe magistrate this morning like a phonograph turned loose, but it didn't go. "Five dollars and costs," said the magistrate, and Patrick went down aid dug up the filthy lucre. John Dunn, a tall angular specimen of overgrown boyhood was arrested in the "Q" yards last night and was found to be carrying concealed weapons. He will have his bearing before Magistrate Wiy:ll this evening. Peter Sours was arrested for toying with whisky sours by Officer Carison this morning, and will have his hearing this evening. C. Hauk and Emuel O'crshirt were arrested on Moline avenue last night by Officer Sundehn for disturbing tbe peace fighting. Another Improvement. A movement is on foot looking to tbe formation of a club composed of repre sentative citizens, and tbe purchase of the Sears homestead, adjoining Biack Hawk's tower, with a view of converting it into a club house. Tne prospective improvement of the Rock Island & Mi lan road by the introduction of elec tricity as a motive power, has encour aged such a move, which will probably be carried out if tbe South Rock Island road commissioners dont knock i: out.

The Verne Swain, Mary Morton and Jo Long cams down; the Sidney, Pilot, Gen.

Nearly 600 were on board, 1 and all enjoyed themselves immensely. The Schnell club's invitation excursion down the river on the Josephine last evening was a success in eyery way. About 800 were on board, and an exceed ingly pleasant time was had by all. The other lumber manufacturers are following the example of Mr. Weyer haserand running double decked rafts. The Clinton age says: "The Volunteer arrived down yesterday with a double decked raf; for W. J. Youni? & Co. Whether this plan of towing rafts will prove advisable or not yet remains to be seen . Dunne tich water a double decked raft could perhaps be handled with safety but daring the present low stage of the riyer considerable care is necessary. The raft yester.lay drew about three feet of water." A gentleman writing to the lumbermen from the upper Mississippi eay; "There will be a good many million feet of logs that will have to lay in ravines and crevi ces for another year, owing to the fact that their is not enouch water to float them. "The summer rains are not heavy enough to move them. It will require a sudden freshet or a small sized flood. I have between 18.000.000 and 20,000,000 feet on Platte river and Hiilman brook that cannot be moved before next year on account of low watr." Aid. Adamn' Explanation. Rock Island, July 23 Editor Abgus I notice in last nieht's Abgus that Mr. Louderback is surprised at my remarks in regard to the street cr company at the council meeting last Monday evening. Mr. Louderbacs gaye me a communica tion addressed to the street and alley committee, at my urgent request, but said communication was not satisfactory tome tbe way it has turned out. It committed Mr. Louderbnck to nothing. but stated that in 30, 60 or 90 days his people would cive the matter of putting diockb in along ineir lines their attention 1, as a member of the street and alley committee, rrqa-sied Mr. Loudeiback and Mr. Hunto.n to place blocks in their line as they were lay leg it, and they told nae tney woul 1. I also requested the mayor to ten them we insisted on thir putting in the blocks as they laid their track and they pjomised him they would. Last Monday I examined tbe track and was unable to find any blocks, but found that tbe track was all graded wiin cinders and macadam, and no provision made as far as I could see for blocks. It was my opinion if the street car company intended to place Diocss in the tracks they would have done so when they bad their tracks excavated, as it would have been a great deal "aeier to have done so. I have no inclination in anyway to o p pose the street car company, but we. as a city council, have a right to expect Mr. Louderback to comply with the ordi nances under which the street car com pany is runnine Mr. Louderback has had a good job done on the Milan line; I only wish he would follow it up and place some of the rest of bis lines in shape. Tbe Elm street line ia im p issable from Seventh to Tenth avenue. Mr. Louderback is woiking in the inter est of the street car company. I am do ing what I think is for the best interest of the city, and I do not expect at all times, and in all things to agree with the street car syndicate its manager, attorney, or employes. Tbe street car company has done a great deal fo: Rack Island and at tbe same time the city has shown them a great many favors. Lt Mr. Louderback comply with the ordinances and laws of the city, and he will find me willing and ready to favor the street car syndicate in every way that it is possible for me to do. J. C. Adams.
