fM1 I-1 IN A LONELY PLACE. EXPERIENCE OF HENRY KUEHL ON WEST FIFTH STREET. Held up at Midnight Near the Mueller Lumber Yard, and Worsts His As- sailant in the Encounter Story of the Attempted Robbery. As Henry Kuehl, the grocer, in business at the northeast corner of Fourth street and Western avenue, was going to his home, near Fifth and Warren streets, at midnight Thursday night, he met with an experience, which, if repeated, will bode no good to the party of the second part. Mr.

Kuehl locked up his store and' saloon shortly before midnight, and with several hundred dollars in his pockets started to go home. He walked west on Fourth street to Warren and turned north on the east side of the street on the road to Fifth street, where he resides. Just after passing the- German Bethlehem Congregational church he was startled to see a man jump from out the roadway, betwen the lumber piles of the Christ. Mueller yards there, and rush towards him. The stranger tried to grasp his throat, but Mr.

Kuehl, with rare presence of mind, thwarted his purpose and swung both right and left upon his assailant, felling him to the walk and tumbling him thence into the gutter. Without waiting to see who his assailant might be Mr. Kuehl continued on his way home. The locality in which the attempt to hold up Mr. Kuehl was made, is an ideal spot for such work.

The lumber yard and adjoining church are always deserted, and heavy foliage obscures vision from the opposite side of the street. The police have been notified and are working on the case. Suspects Released. Two young men were picked up on suspicion last night. Both were thought to be what is termed "cappers" of a street fakir, whose business was not on the square.

However, no evidence could be found againBt them directly, and both were released this morning. Altman and the Vags. This morning Justice J. S. Altman committed to limbo for the term of ten days, two suspects, who were jailed on the vagrancy charge.

They gave their names as C. Shaw and Ben Lelano. Both are strangers, whose presence with the carnival contingent here was decidedly suspicious. Recovered a Buggy. Detective Mundt recovered a buggy for several ladies residing on the bluff Thursday.

Some one had taken the rig from Turner hall to Northwest Davenport on a flying trip, returning it later to about the same spot whence it was taken, Several cloaks were in the rig and were found untouched. The case was reported to the police in the forenoon, and it did not take Officer Mundt long to recover it. Fired Out Of Town. George Kais, whose chuck-a-luck perfume game, near the St. James hotel, was closed down upon by County Attorney Lischer as not being on the square, was placed In a cell Thursday evening by Night Desk Sergeant Dobler.

He was detained at the request of the Elks, The allegation against him is that he was injuring some of the other privileged fakirs in their business. Kais alleges that he is a detective in the employ of fhe Bostock-Ferari company. He was released later and took the first train out of town. Kais claimed to be a detective connected with the shows, but that he had to get his remuneration out of his "little perfume stand." That proved to be a gambling arrangement, the rake-off of which would stake a man for life in a few months, and hence his troubles. ARE IN CHICAGO.

Best Flour In the Kin vvuriu Sold by To the seashore or tlto Inkos, or rusticate during the summer without Thursday Was an Off Day in the Three-I League. The Rock Island team stemmed the winning streak of the Cedar Rapids nine Thursday, by winning a 2 to 1 game at the park across the river. It was an open day in the league, and the teams were playing a postponed game. They open a regular series in Rock Island today, while the Davenport team takes on the leaders at Rockford.

Around the Leapue. Evansville has taken a bad tumble down the ladder and is now in fifth place. The fans are making life miserable for members of tne team. Cedar Rapids has won 11 out of the last 13 games, a very creditable record. Manager Sam Kennedy of Evansville will not be in the game for a week owing to illness.

That the Evansville fans are sore on their team there can be no doubt, if the Journal-News expresses the sentiment, as follows: "If Evansville can't win at home what will be done on the next trip; lose of course. It's not pitchers, but hitters, that are wanted. Pitchers can't do all the winning. There must be some hitting back of them. The Evansville team would hardly know a base hit if they met one alone on the diamond.

Caffryn, the Peoria amateur, is Halving good with Bloomington. Kinlock was taken back when he signed a clause against the booze. Trilby, who deserted the Bloomers after signing a contract to play, is in the East and a protest will he filed against him. Shortstop King, who has been released by Bloomington, has signed with the Peoria team of the Western league. Birmingham, Davenport's first base man last year, who has been captain of the Sacramento team in the Cali fornia league has been released, it Is claimed that his team lost 14 straight games, for which he was obliged to walk the plank.

The Davenport fans are now awaiting to hear the intelligence that he has been signed by the Davenport management. Decatur Review. IN CHARGE OF DISTRICT. F. J.

President Leeds in St.

Louis Talks of Rock Island Plans Will Build Big Office Building There General Rail-. way News. Two official circulars, just received in this city, announce the appointments of Robert Mather of Chicago, to the position of general counsel of the Rock Island system he has long been vice president and of John Sebastian to the new position of passenger traffic manager. Mr. Mather is a lawyer of ability and prominence, and his Installation in the position of general counsel is proper, and will be productive of satisfaction to the company, without doubt.

It is with the appointment of Mr. Sebastian, however, that the people of this city, especially those who use the Rock Island trains, have most concern. He comes nearer to them, and they are more interested in it. From the day, years ago, when Mr. Sebastian was taken to Chicago from the Kansas City country, where his work as a representative of the passenger department had attracted the attention of his superiors, he has been a great power among the western general passenger agents, and one of the most prominent officials of this class in the wnole country.

He has been in the lead in original and daring move ments, and still safely conservative. He nas been almost spectacular in some of the maneuvres through which he has put his company to the front, but always strictly business. He has carried the passenger department of his company to a very high state of ef ficiency, making it a model among the western roads. Now, with the ex pansion of the road to nearly 7,000 miles, corresponding growth in his department has been rendered necessary. The nock Island's passenger depart ment has always been headed by its general passenger agent.

Now the position of passenger traffic manager, of higher rank than that of general passenger agent, has been created, and of course, Mr. Sebastian is the man to fill It. The position of general pas senger agent, It is supposed, remains, and probably the appointment to it will be announced before long. On the manner in which the head of a railroad passenger department looks alter its business depends the degree of satisfaction that the public feels in that road's passenger service. For years the Rock Island has given the best to this cliy that has been in its power.

Without discriminating against other cities in the least, it has tried to the utmost to arrange its train service so as to be satisfactory to the residents and the travelers of Daven port. The same thing is good all along the line, but it is not out of order for Davenport to feel that she is under obligations to the Rock Island for a passenger service far and away better and more convenient than that enjoyed by any town likewise situated on any of the Rock Island's competitors. To the cleverness and the determination of Mr. Sebastian to please his road's pat rons has this arrangement been due with proper credit, always, to the local representatives of the road who have kept him in close touch with condi tions here. In his new post there is no reason to suppose that his attention to Davenport interests, and the interests of other Rock Island system towns, will be in the least relaxed.

We have a proper right to congratulate him unon a deserved promotion, as the foremost passenger traffic man of Chicago and the western lines we have a right to claim him in part as our own. President Leeds Talks. W. B. Leeds, president, of the Rock Island, and all the leading general officers of the road were in St.

Louis a day or two ago, inspecting the terminals of tne Wiggins ferry com pany, which will be used in connection with the St. Louis, Kansas City Colorado line, lately acquired by the Rock Island. In an Interview Mr. Leeds said that it was his first opportunity to go to St. Louis.

The Rock Island had acquired the St. Louis, Kansas City Colorado line with the Intention ot completing it to Kansas City and establishing a St. Louis line for the system. A Big Office Building. The St Louis Republic says that negotiations have been opener for the erection of an office building at the northeast corner of Seventh and Market streets for the use of the Chicago.

Rock Island Pacific railway, as soon as that road enters St. Louis. The Rock Island will require about 100 offices, but it is probable that a larger building will be constructed, with the idea of renting a part of it. The site of the propose I building is owned by the estate of the late Congressman James N. Burnes of St.

Joseph, now managed by his son, Louis C. Burnes. president of the. National bank of St. Joseph.

Congress man Burnes built a large part of the Rock Island Railway system, and the relationship between bis family and the road's management has been intimate. The lot is 67x06 feet, and Is now occupied by antiquated structures. It Is directly across the street from the Missouri Pacific Railway building, formerly railed the Pontine, and with in half a block of the Lincoln Trust building, in which the Wabash road has its general offices. The intimacy existing between the Wabash and the Rock Island because of joint term inal arrangements makes the location ideal, and besides the corner Is convenient to the I'nlon station and the railway freight offices.
