Offers Ideal Location
TRUST CLOSED FORMER PLANT
Great Fire at Cedar Rapids Neccssi

Which Has Been Operated Since
Then and Cedar Rapids Disadvan-

Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republtcan:l
Iowa City, March 1.-THE rumos
that the mammoth cereal mills which
burned in Cedar Rapids on the night
of March 9TH, will never be rebuilt in
that locality, has created u furore OF
excitement in the little city Of Coral
vile, one mile east of Iowa City, where
the American Cereal Company, already
owns one cereal mill, which has been
closed for the past fifteen years. 1t is
urged that Coralville offers an ideal
location for the building of plant such
as the great trust requires, and that
there are many reasons why the entire
plant could be moved to that locality
with advantage.
When the American cereal trust was
formed in 1892. the Pearl mills had been
operating at Coralville for over hyteen
years. In the general consolidation
the Pearl mills went into the trust and
We're eventually closed. The trust had
found that it was more economical to
operate the single mill in Cedar Rap
ids, where the entire demand could be
supplied. But it is now stated that
for several years past The trust has
found that the ground at their disposal
in the Parlor City has no. heen suffi-
cient to contain all of the proposed
additions. They had already Quilt UP
to the limit OF their holdings and were
hemmed in on every side by business
houses and high priced lots.
;s,s {eye
ed that the size will be largely lncreas-
ed, more ground will be required than
the original holdings in Cedar Rapids
amount to. This difficulty is overcome
by the comparative cheapness of land
in Coralville. Ample room could be Sc
cured for extension of the plant in ev-
cry direction. And an ideal commune
ity COLD be built up on the plan Of the
great Pullman works in Pullman, South
Chicago.
Coralville has other advantages over
the old situation, with none Of the dis
advantages. Ample ralrond facilities
are provided for by the Rock Island,
| the main line Of which runs a half mile
south Of the city, and spur of which
already runs thru the place. The Ce-
dar Rapids and Iowa City Electric road
also runs thru Coralville, giving an
outlet to Cedar Rapids and the railroad
Ieonverging there. Rate discrimination
| would therefore be a question of no
danger and ample facilities would be
secured for moving both the raw mas
terial shipped to the mill and the fin1
| ished product.

Charcoal effectualy clears and i'm

It absorbs the injurious gases which
