Milwaukee Planning to Better We
ter Service.

Over twelve miles Of track have
been laid on the Ottumwa end of the
Milwaukee cutoff and the distance
which separates the two gangs of track
layers is being decreased daily. The
men are working ct both ends Of the
line and will probably meet near
Washington. The rails are being laid
and spiked down securely all along the
line and work trains use the track as
soon as it is laid. A larger gang is
being used on the east end of the
cutoff and that is why the work is
progressing faster at that end of the
line.
First Train July Is.
The first train on the Milwaukee
cutoff will be run over the lire July Is
the expectations Of the officials are
