NEW HEATING PLANT
ILLINOIS CENTRAL TO PLACE
ONE IN THE NEW DEPOT.

For the past several winters, and in
fact ever since the new l. O. depot has
been in use, there have been made
complaints of the heating plant. Last
winter the plumbers werJ put to work
on the plant and again this summer
they worked with it, but still no bet
ter results are acquired. 1t has been
decided to tear this system out, and
Mr.. E. d. Harmon will probably be
awarded the contract to put in a new
one. The officials Of the Louisville
division of the l. O. have all agreed
that the pipes are defective and need
to be replaced by new ones, except
Superintendent A. Philbrick, and il
is thought that he will readily con.
sent to have the work done.
