Rock Islands July Business Beats the
Worlds Record.

The passenger records of all Ameri
can railroads for any month in the
past will appear insignificant when
compared with tho record of the Rock
Island road for July, 1901. The Rock
Island business during the past month
has been heavier than that of any
American road during a similar period
The fact that IL is the only line into
I'll Reno has caused more than three
fourths of the homcseekers TO use IL in
making the trip to the promised land
II In addition the Colorado business
over the Rock Island has been enor,
nous. The combined travel will, al
the end of the month, be found to have
established n record for that road
which it is likely will not be broken
for n number of years.
II Is estimated that the passenger
earnings OF the Rock Island as a re.
suit OF the rush to lei Reno will amount
to 81 600, 900.
