Another Bridge for Clinton.

road bridge. The l., l. & /. has bought
4 half interest in the q. from Streator
to Clinton and will send it's trains
over this line. The l., l. & l. started to
parallel the Q. from Streator to Gin
ton. The q. officials, taking a bust
ness-like view of the situation, offered
either a traffic arrangement or half
interest in the line. The latter prep
osition was accepted. The North
western is running so many trains
over it's bridge at Clinton it has been
compelled to give the Q. notice that
the arrangement for the use of the
bridge by that road must terminate
This makes it necessary for the Q. to
build. What connection all this
may have with the Davenport. Rock
Island & Northwestern can only be
guessed. but it is not pro ba bic that the
new road will be satisfied to stop at
Clinton, giving all its business to the
Northwestern.
