Rock Island Puts Retrenchment
Orders In Execution.

Des Moines, Aug. Co. CONSERVATION
was caused in Valley Junction today
by about one houndred Of the Rock
Island shop employees receiving sum
mary notice of an indefinite lay-off.
The shop authorities were unable to
give the men any explanation of the
order. stating that they were merely
carrying out orders from headquar-
tiers.
Many of the men laid off were old
employees, having homes of their own
in the city. The reduction Of the
force affects all departments, many
Of the men being high class mecnan-
les and drawing big wages
There is a variance as to the num-
Der of men laid off. Some of the
shop officials stated that less than
seventy-five We're laid OFF, but others
claimed the number exceeded 800
the order seems to be general
one, Affecting the entire system, the
Cedar Rapids shops being completely
closed, The local officers of the com,
pany stated that they had no knowl-
edge of the matter, but supposed that
it was a part of the retrenchment pol
icy in ALI lines.
They claim that there mas been a
constant reduction in the number OF
employees in all departments since

bureau for August /, just made pub.
lie, the corn crop of Iowa for 1904 will

900 bushels last year. That is the es-
innate placed on the crop by Director
Jonn r. Sage Kill rs
There are many things between
now and the harvest" said Mr.. Sage.

frost, for the crop is ten days late,

I believe it is a conservative estimate
to put the crop at 30O,OOo,00O bush.

TO CONCENTRATE AT MOLINE.
Rock island Shops at Valley junction
to Be Removed.

Des Moines, Aug. 8.-Within the
next six months the Rock Island will
complete the removal of the shops of
the Iowa division from Valley juno
ton to East Moline, Ill. This report
is given out on good authority in Des
Moines but officials of the road re-
fuse to confirm it beyond the state
ment that the policy of the road was
to make the Moline shops, on which
they have spent about $1,000,000 dur
ing the last two years, the principal
shops Of the eastern part of the sys.
tenn.
This will mean the removal of
about four or FIVE hundred men from
Valley Junction and will also be a Sc
we're blow to Des Moines, as the retail
merchants here have secured the bulk
of the trade Of this class. II. will re-
move the biggest factory in Valley
Junction and will be severe blow to
the prosperity of the town If it does
not kill it completely.
1t is not known yet whether the re-
moval of the shops viii mean any
change in the divisions. If it does it
will take about two hundred more
employees from there, men employed
in the operating department.
Valley Junction will not be the only
point affected by the change, the old
B., C. R. G. N. shops at Cedar Rapids
suffering like fate.
