The girl, who came here last Mon;

from the straight and narrow path.
All of the resorts in Cairo have been
searched by the police, but as yet no
trace of her can be found.
The girl, who is described as being
a very attractive blonde, fairly well
dressed but rather awkward and de
cidedly unaccustomed to city ways, ar
rived in Cairo Monday. She register

stated that she had come here TO meet

Yesterday at a meeting of the man

turing concern that will have a CAPT
tai stock of $4,000 and will erect and
operate a large plant here that will
employ the year around nearly hun
dred skilled operators.
The name or present location of
tho concern cannot be given out at
present, but it is almost certainty
that the plant win be located here in
the course of a few months.
1t is understood that Cairo is a
more desirable location for the con.
Germ, owing to the fact that 1t Is now
located in a northern state and is far
away from the raw material used, and
hat Cairo affords far better shipping
facilities.
1t is said that the capital stock is
to be increased and that a certain
amount will be taken by local men
Yesterday stock to the amount of sew
eral thousand dollars was subscribed
for and several other large blocks are
to be sold to Cairoites.
The concern will engage In the
manufacture of brand OF farming i'm

ARE WELL PLEASED
Committee Returns IRON Con.
ference With Officials
ILLINOIS CENTRAL PROPOSES TO
MAKE SEVERAL IMPROVE
MANIFESTATION WILL
NOT BE MOVED.

The committee composed Of Mayor
George Parsons. Messrs. John S. Ais
thorpe, Samuel Hastings, C. V. Neff
and Charles Feuchter Jr,, returned
yesterday from Chicago, where they
we're in conference Wednesday with
the officials of the Illinois Central re
garding the proposed plan of the rail-
road to run a switch track down Rail-
road street from Fourteenth street.
The members of the committee say
that they are sure that the trip will
be the result of incalculable good TO
the city.
Mr. Aisthorpe in speaking of the
"trip said: BY going TO Chicago, the
vice presidents and the general man
ager of the railroad heard from the
citizens direct Cairo's side of the
matter, instead of going in round
about way through superintendent
engineers, etc, a good feeling resulted
as was shown by the fact that Mr.
Harahan, the second vice president Of
the road, told us that the company
wanted to give Cairo a square deai
and that 1t intended to do so"
The committee was successful in Sc
curing a promise from the railroad
TO make many Improvements ant
learned just what could be expected
n the switch track matter, Over
which there has been so much contro
yersy since the plan was first pro
posed They brought back with then
a signed statement Of just what th'
road intended to do in the way OF i'm
provements, which is in effect Thu
same as was published in yesterday
Bulletin in a special dispatch from
| Chicago.
The railroad officials, however, re
fused to make any promises regard
ing their through trains coming int
the city.
I 1t has been known for few year
that the railroad was considering th
plan of erecting a new passenger sta
ton in the upper part Of the city, hu
t would seem from the fact that tn
officials told the Cairo committee tina
they had postponed other improve
ments here because they had bee
undecided as to the station. but the
IL had been practically settled an
