NEW lNTERUReAN LINE.
Talks Of a Line From Des Moines to
Omaha.

Des Moines, Jan. 10.-Lyman Wat
erman, chief promoter Of the Creston
& Winterset Interurban Electric rail-
way, has quit the management of the
company behind the enterprise, and
transferred his services to the com
pany organized for the promotion and
construction of an electric line from
Omaha to Des Moines. 1t Is reported
the proposed Omaha-Des Moines line
will be built through Pottawattamie,
Cass, Adair and Madison counties to
connect at Winterset with the pro.
posed line from Creston to Des
Moines, thus giving access to Creston
and intermediate towns in Madison
and Union counties as well as num-
Der of towns between Winterset and
Des Moines. Mr.. Waterman states
that he has received much substan-
tial financial encouragement from bus
mess men in Omaha, Winterset and
Des Moines, and that IL expectations
are realized the line will be built and
in operation inside the limit Of two
years.
1t is the intention to follow route
about midway between the main lines
of the Rock Island and Burlington
roads. This will give access to a ter
ritory the entire length Of the line
which has not heretofore enjoyed any
conveniences in the way of transpor'
tation. The territory abounds with
rich farming lands in high state OF
cultivation, and offers rare encour-
agement for a fine traffic, both passen.
ger and freight.
The construction Of such line will
be of immense benefit to Des Moines
and Omaha retail merchants, as 1t
penetrates a section difficult of i'm
gress, especially for people who de.
sire to visit Des Moines or, in fact
any important towns. owing to the
poor passenger facilities offered by
the one or two trains per day by the
steam railroads. A little encourage
ment along the line Of cheap and
frequent train service would invite a
large retail trade.
