Sioux City, Oct. Pa special train of
eight business cars of the Illinois Cen

division officers of the company out on
their annual inspection of the system.
arrived in Sioux City over the Chicago,
Milwaukee IL st. Paul road from Sioux
Falls. The train was set out near the
Illinois Central freight house and at 6.30
o'clock dinner was served in the dining
car, the only guest being B. E. Nichols,
general agent for the company in Sioux
City. Because of the disagreeable night
the majority of the members of the
party remained in the cars. A few
walked up to the hotels and a few saw
In Illinois at the Grand opera house.
All spent the night in their apartments
on the train.
Speaking of the Fort Dodge & On
aha, General Superintendent "A. w.
Sullivan said that it would be COM
pleted and in operation by Jan. /. He
knew that contractors had said 1t
would be a physical impossibility to
complete the road this year but, all
things considered, he thought remarka-
bly, fast construction work had been
done. only twenty more miles of rail
are to be laid and that will be put down
in short order" he said. The bridge
work is little behind, but that, too,
will be hurried along. All the material
lis on the ground and the builders now
are engaged in stringing the Orders.
Work across the low, marshy tract be-
tween Wall Lake and Carnavaran pro-
ceeds slowly and with some difficulty"
AS only the old lines are inspected
the train will not go over the completed
portion of the Fort Dodge & Omaha.
From Sioux City the train will go to
Cherokee and thence to Onawa, and
then back to Cherokee and on east.
Ordinarily the train starts at daybreak,
but this morning it will not leave until
10 O'Clock, when it will pull out at a
glow gate behind the Clipper.
The annual inspection of the Illinois
Central is one OF the admirable fea-
lures of the magnificent management
of the road. 1t takes on the form of q
/ rigid examination and woe is unto the
superintendent or roadmaster whose
division falls below the set standard of
high excellence. For many years it has
been the policy of A. w. Sullivan, gen.
! eral superintendent for the company,
to make these annual trips of inspec-
ton. There is nothing Of the junket
about them. Every man on the train 4

Death IRON Lockiaw.

Ft. Dodge. Oct. 26.-William Henry
Daniels, who was farmer living be-
low Lehigh, member of a we'll known
pioneer Webster county family, died as
the result of lock jaw ensuing from
what was supposed to have been tri
vial accident. Last Friday while out in
his yard his foot caught in the loosened
wire of an old broom, and he gave it an
energetic kick to free his foot. The
broom was short and sharp on the end,
and in some way it penetrated his leg
below the ankle, intiicting a painful
wound. which, however, caused no i'm
mediate apprehension. The wound soon
grew worse, lock-jaw resulted and
death followed.

It has been stated here by some Of Mr.
Forasers friends privately that it Is
Foraker's intention to contest the Ohio
delegation 10 the next republican ma
tionAl convention with Mckinley.
This statement was made some little
