The report is of "vast importance and a meeting of the health committee of the city council will be held this evening, to decide as to whether the report will be given out for publication or not. The report, judging from the efforts of the health department to suppress it, must be of a startling nature. Dr. DeSilva, health commissioner, when seen today, stated the report was that the water was good.

This may possibly be preliminary to the real facts.

The law cases, most of which were carried over from the last term, are lengthy and important cases. There are 35 divorce cases. In the May term of court the cases were divided as follows: Two hundred and thirty-eight law cases and Z22 in chancery.

The rapid increase of business is working a great hardship to the court officers and gives an immense portion of work to the district judges. Circuit Court Clerk Gamble slated this morning that most of the law cases were of minor importance. With the criminal cases, the county has been extremely good and have almost adhered to the mandates of the law. There is an extra large number of railroad suits. The Rock Island Peoria, the Burlington and the Rock Island roads are defendants in a number of cases, already mentioned in these columns.

The last day of service the September term of the county court was yesterday and the George Gamble's force is today enjoying a slight rest from the strenuous business with which they have handled for the past two weeks. The September term of the circuit court will be extensive as the business docketed will necessitate an extraordinary long term. The total number of cases docketed for disposition at the coming term is 643. At the May term there were 570 ease.4 on the docket which term was a most judicious manner of handling the business, although it was impossible to meet the demands. There something to be concealed.

He pointed out the home of the American missionary to the north of the city of Korea, which is hemmed in by a wall 2T feet high. The city of Korea is three miles In length and one mile wide, and has a population of 40,000. The people secure their water from a river which rushes along tho outside of the walls.
