COMMISSION Will
CONSIDER PLANS
Railroad Commissioners Give
an Advance Opinion of Mar
shalltown Viaduct
NECESSITY EVIDENTLY EXISTS
Commission Notifies Special Council
Committee Today That It Will Con.
slider the Plans If Presented-Com.
mittec Wanted to Know for Sure 30.
fore Going to Any Expense.

The special committee of the Mar
shalltown city council, composed
of Messrs. Merritt Greene and Byron
Webster. was today notified by the
Iowa state railroad commission that it
would consider plans for the Marshall
town viaduct, If presented. In other
words this is an advance opinion, on
the part of the commission, that the
necessity for the viaduct does exist.
The council committee asked thu
railroad commission some time ago
to know whether or not it would be
necessary to go ahead and have extern
sive plans and specifications drafted.
The committee did not like to go to the
great expense of the plans ii the rail-
road commission did not deem a via
duct a public necessity. AS that was
mutually understood TO be the question
to be decided at the present time, IT
is taken for granted that the commits
sion considers that the necessity exists.
The statutes submit two questions to
the railroad commission in the build
ing of viaducts. First, the necessity;
second, the approval of the plans and
specifications. The railroad commits
sion must pass upon the plans and ac-
cept before the work can be done.
1t l.; estimated that complete plans
and specifications such as VIII be
necessary, will cost in the neighborhood
of $500.

moisten the surface of the ground.
While there is an abundance of moist
ure below the surface, and it works up
ward where the ground has been stir
red, the hot sun of the past week has
formed a crust that is exceedingly dry
and hard on the top. A good rain would
materially benefit the growing crops.
Farmers say that corn is looking hne
on all upland farms, and while some OF
that of the lowlands appears small and
not thrifty they have hopes that the
crop will be much better than prospects
indicated two weeks ago. The light
frost of last week had a tendency to
produce considerable brown corn on
the lower ground, but it is 'greening
up gradually and within few days
there will be but little indication that a
frost had in any way affected 1t. The
farmers say that a great deal of the
corn will be of average height, "knee
high" by July 4.

American LEAGUE Clubs Standing.
National League Clubs Standing.

After two days rest the Senators once
more got down to work yesterday in Bos-
ton, the Colinsites defeating them by the
close score of to 4. These close scores
are becoming somewhat monotonous. five
games on the present trip having been lost
by one run.
Manager LOTUS had another proposition
to face yesterday, Robinson was able to
get back in the game, but was afraid to
take chances on the shortstop position. AS
a result Coughlin was placed at short
Holmes at third and Martin in right. The
combination appeared to work all right
two of the three errors being made by
Clark and Carey Coughlin getting the
other. Holmes made two fine assists at
third but Robinson covered very little
ground at second on account of his bad
ankle
Wilson was on the rubber for the Sena
tors and his work was fairly good At the
bat Wilson doomed up big with his two
triples. The veteran Jimmy Ryan was
again the leader with the stick. his three
singles being of the timely order and run
gamers.
Washington hung up a in the first
inning, a pretty good start. Holmes be-
gan business with a drive at Parent which
the latter threw wild and the Senator was
safe. Setback laid down pretty sacrifice
by a fine sprint. Jimmy Ryan then
stepped into one of Winters fast curves
and laced out a neat single, Holmes scor-
ing Singles by Freeman and LaChance
and a sacrifice. enabled Boston to tie the
score in the second.
In the third the Senators again went to
the front Wilson's grand triple to the
fence and Selbach's long fly enabling the
twirler to race home
The Bostons woke up in the fifth and
went to the front by scoring two runs the
result of singles by Dougherty and O Brien
and Collins double. A double play by
Carey, unassisted, shut off further trouble
In the sixth, Setback singled and Ryan
beat out nice bunt toward third. Mar
tin tried to sacrifice, but reached first in
safety. Coughlin then drove the ball at
Parent. forcing Martin at second, Setback
coming home on the out. The fake steal
was then tried by Coughlin and Holmes
but Creiger was too sharp and 'Ducky''
was put out. The Bcstons came right back
at the Senators with one run and again
went to the front
In the eighth Washington tied the score
again for a few minutes. Selbach getting
a pass to first. went to third on Ryan's
single and home on Martins fly to the out
field. The spectators were somewhat
worked up until Freeman tore off triple
in the same inning and scored on La
Chance out to Ryan in deep center Neither
side did anything in the ninth and the
game was over. Score:
