Tribune backs down on Grant land charge in Bishop Hill case
The Chicago Tribune retracts its earlier claim linking Gen Grant and J Russell Jones to Bishop Hill Colony land. A letter from Jones and a statement by attorney John I Bennett show the land transaction was regular and involves joint real estate between Jones, Munson, Smith, and Grant with no impropriety. The piece notes the Credit Mobilier affair is deflating as Ames denies bribery and Congress receives further testimony challenging the allegations.

Gas Fire at Water-Well on Chapin Property
Workmen boring for water at the Chapin property in Duncan Grove Jacksonville hit a gas vein at 115 feet. A lighted tool ignited the gas, flames rose eight to ten feet, and proved hard to extinguish. Gas is pure and likely taps artesian flow linked to the nearby depot. A related dispatch notes Geo Lewis, who murdered Enoch Hardcastle near Roadhouse, Greene County, Ill, was captured at Crete, Neb, confessed, with McEvers and Selby held for following Lewis. Monmouth voters rejected city government incorporation by 78 to approve and 470 to reject the minority representation proposal.
