Fort Dodge, Oct. 31.-What promises
to become an interesting affair was in
augurated at Manson on Sunday morn
ing. when the Illinois Central unloaded
sixty-five laboring men and forty
teams. The object In sending this force
of men there was to remove the grade
which had been constructed up to their
tracks in Manson by the Gowrie &
Northwestern. The grade had been
completed several days ago and the
force sent to other points along their
proposed line Of road, leaving the
course clear for the Central. The men
and teams worked all day Sunday and
until an early hour Monday morning
with teams and scrapers removing the
grade They We're witnessed by an
eager throng of people, who deserted
the churches and watched the men at
work This, however. is but one point
where trouble is likely to follow. The
Gowrie & Northwestern has arranged
to cross the new line Of the Omaha &:
Fort Dodge at a point a few miles from
Tara. Its intentions have been made
plain to the Central by the grade which
they nave dl Gldl poiiA'

The intention OF the Central is to com
