To Re Big AFFAIR.

The line will be no small affair.
The contracts give a cost of over
$21. 900 a mile, equipment and all.
This brings the total to close upon
100000. This total is much smaller
than il would have been if the com
pany had sought to have its own ter
minals in this city and Clinton. By
its arrangements with the Tri-City
Railway company the latter furnishes
the terminals, as far as this city is
concerned, and the greater part of the
line in from the city limits, while in
Clinton the street car line there does
the same thing. The arrangement is
regarded as one that is very favor
able for the Iowa and Illinois com
pany. Its equipment is promised to
be as good as can be wanted. 1t will
give the public passenger service with
cars that will cost 900, and the
other features of the service are
promised to be in good keeping.
