FoRr MADISON, Sept. %.
At a quarter to five yesterday afternoon
We left keokuk, at a quarter to six we left
Montrose, and arrived here few minutes
past seven. We were pleased to find that the
railroad around the rapids is doing good
business already, both in passengers and
freight; our train was crowded, and some Of
MS had to 60 it standing. The road has iust
begun to carry freight for the boats, and it
does it with so much ca,e, dispatch, and at
such rates, that the shippers are highly
pleased. Even our friend Capt. Morrison,
Of the Oakland, who has always taken such
a lively interest in this road and had such
faith in its being a good Institution, was
surprised to find how easy the road could
load and unload his freight We have no
doubt this business will soon be crowdpg
upon the road beyonbits ability to meet the
demand. They will need more cars and
sundry other fxings in order to do i. well,
and we trust their uSans will increase with
the demand.
AT Montrose we took the Ben Campbell.
which we found always waits for the passen.
gers from the st. Louis packet, provided they
arrive IN time to 90 up on the 4:4o p. M.
train. This up-river line was established to
run in connection with the Keokuk and ST.
LOUIS Packet Line, and consequently the
boats always wait as long as they can to ac-
eommodate through passengers. 1t would
be great convenience to the up-riyer trade
and travel generally If the st. Louis packets
would arrive in time to send the passengers
and mails by the 1910 train.
We got good supper on tho Ben Camp

Miller, who presiles in the Clerks Office.
