TO INSTALL BLOCK
SIGNAL SYSTEM
Rock Island VIII Equip Main
Lines With Modern Safety
Devices.

The Rock Island has begun the work
of installing a complete block signal
system over its entire main division.
The first carloads of material We're
shipped from Chicago yesterday and
the work Will be carried on without in
terruption until completed.
The undertaking win be costly, but
the executive officials of the road an
nounce that the safety of trains is the
paramount consideration and the cost
of installing the new system will be
more than made up to the road in les
SEEMING the number of accidents along
the line.
1t is claimed the work is one of the
most comprehensive undertaken by
any railroad in the country, and was
decided upon after various signaling
devices had been experimental with
both in the United States and Europe.
The work of blocking a total of S4S
miles of track was begun yesterday at
Blue Island. From this point the work
will be carried on to Harrington. Kan,
666 miles, and also from Rock Island
TO Valley Junction, Iowa, 1873 miles.
Present plans do not go further than
this, but officials of the road say that
as soon as this portion of the work has
been completed arrangements will be
made for installing the block signals
on the other portions of the road and
equipped, including the Northern divi-
sion.
System Is Extensive.
In railroad circles the undertaking of
the Rock Island is considered signifi-
cant 1t is understood the company in
tends completing its block signal sys-
TEN irrespective of the amount of sur
plus income available for operating eX-
penses during the next year or two.
The exact cost of the work now being
carried on has not been announced, but
before the system has been installed on
all the lines of the company several
hundred thousands of dollars will have
been expended. Material will be ship
ped by the manufacturers of the device
as rapidly as completed and large
force of men will be kept at work until
the plans Of the company have been
carried out.
New Line Is Surveyed.
Rock Island surveyors are locating a
railroad line between Trenton and
Kansas City, Mo, that will be twenty
five miles shorter than that now used.
From Jamesport the line goes to the
Wabash railroad and crosses at Car
low, going due south. The line crosses
the Hannibal & ST. Joseph at Hamil-
ton, the Santa Fe at Converse, and will
run almost parallel with the Milwau-
kee, using the latter's bridge at Kansas
City.

SECRET DEAL MAKES TROUBLE.
Eastern and Western immigration Bu-

A secret deal between the New York,

Mcdonald, the independent immigra-

the relations between the immigrant

The Western association claims that
the action of the New York, Ontario &

traffic.
The Eastern association does not adj
NIT this and has asked for confer
