| In making the connection with the
Rock Island road, upon reaching
Grundy Center the line Is carried a
round the eastern end Of Grundy Cen
ter, passing thru the Grundy Center
| fair grounds A line also runs into
Grundy Center on Sixth street to Main
and on Main east, coming to the same
point, where the junction Is secured
with the Rock Island.
General Manager Ferrin says that
the line secured is much better than
he supposed ever could be constructed.
1t will be q first class piece OF con-
struction in every way and the abb
sence Of grades will prove lasting
benefit. saving wear and tear Of roli-
ing stock, wear and tear on roadbed,
and give opportunities for faster time.
For the most part it will be neces-
sary to do but little grading. There
are six miles OF the line north Of Bea-
man where there will only be an aver
age Of from 1900 to 1900 cubic yards
Of excavation and fill per mile. In
reasonable construction the estimate Is
from 10000 to 10000 cubic yards per
mile. There Is one place Of 5000 feet
In this stretch Of six miles with only
fall Of three and onehalf inches.
There is stretch OF 1900 feet abso-
lutely level. not ono inch OF grade. The
one bridge needed VIII be to cross the
iowa river. a steel span $50 feet in
length.
When Mr.. Ferrin was In Cedar Falls
few days ago, he was met by com
mittee of business men at their own
request The Cedar Falls people want
the road extended from Grundy Cen
ter, and ask the terms. They say they
will comply with any reasonable de-
1aand, in order to get It. This would
mean a thru line Of interurban be-
tween Marshalltown and Waterloo, as
Cedar Falls and Waterloo are already
connected.
The Cedar Rapids-1owa City was
placed in operation Saturday. the first
cars run carrying passengers from
both cities to park. midway between
the two towns where big picnic was
held to celebrate the event. Work on
this road was begun last October.

Company, has practically been compile
ted, and from the plat that will be
made by Engineer j. j.. Tuthill. In
here to Grundy Center will be shown
to be an ideal one In every particular.
The maximum grade OF the line has
been found to be only LIS per cent, with
two tangents. or straight lines, OF
twelve and one-half and seven and
one-half miles. There will be but one
bridge necessary, that used for cross
ing the Iowa river, and the average
grade of the entire line will be only
half OF l per cent
The engineering corps returned to
the city Monday afternoon. having
finished up it's work there during the
forenoon. All that remains to be DONE
before the survey Is completed, is a
little work on the streets of this city.
Two days more Will probably see the
survey entirely completed. as far as
the field work is concerned. The work
OF making the plats and drawings viii!
then be commenced. Mr.. Tuthill will
be able to do part OF this work here,
but the most OF it will be completed
In New York. 1t will probably be two
of three weeks before the drawings will
be submitted to the directors for their
inspection.
The road, as stated before in these
columns, follows the half section lines
north out Of this city to Conrad, and
east to Beaman, then runs in north
easterly direction to Grundy Center.
The maximum grade Is only Is per

average grade will be half of l per

might be well to compare South Third

what level road the interurban is to
traverse. OF the thirty miles travelled
there is one tangent Of twelve and one
