Retailers Take Determined
Stand Against Property Own
ers Threatening Suits
MORE AFTER DROP FORGE
Prospect of More Suits Against Drop
Forge Factory Arouses Association
to Pitch of BattIe-Wiil Not En-
courage Purchase of Any More Prop
erty-Attempt to Find Way Out.

The MarshalloWn Retail Mer-
chants association, at IA meeting this
morning, reiterated in stronger terms
its determination to stand behind the
Marshalltown Drop Forge Company
and against property owners of the
vicinity of the factory who are clam
oring for relief because of the alleged
damages resulting from the Vibrations
caused by the immense hammers oper-
ated in the factory.
Nir,e property owners within a block
of the factory have, during the past
few days, consulted lawyers. with a
view of bringing suits for damages
1t was the knowledge of this fact that
the association this morning expressed
again its determination TO open its
pocketbook and dig deep, if necessary,
ito protect the interests of one Of the
city industries.
The association favored and pro-
posed the purchase of the Whealen
property, immediately adjoining the
works on the south, but 1t does not
favor the purchase of any more from
those who may claim damages be-
cause of the factory's being near their
homes. Purchases to stave off suits,
insofar as the association is concerned,
have come to an end.
While the association recognizes, and
appreciates that doubtless property
owners Of the vicinity have suffered
damages of a greater or lesser extent,
and that they have property rights
that must be respected still 1t
does not propose to sit idly BY
and see people of that part of
town harrass the company with litiga-
ton. If they do, the association will
sta1ld by the factory to the limit.
This, in brief, was the determination
expressed and reached this morning.
The association desires very much
that litigation against the company
not be begun, and it proposes to- use
every effort to do away with the chief
cause from which the damages
claimed have resulted. With that end
in view the association today started
an investigation to determine what
kind of suitable and deep founda-
ton, of concrete or other material,
can be placed under the hammer. so
that the vibrations from it may be
absorbed and not communicated to
buildings in the neighborhood. Such
plan, it is believed, is entirely feas-
ible, and can be successfully carried
out. Other drop forge works are to be
asked for information relative to this
particular point of construction.

In one of the most notable games of
the season, marked by brilliant pitch

yesterday won from Keokuk by to l
in fourteen innings. Jacksonville lost,
as did also Oskaloosa, and by winning,
Kennedys team pulled away from Os-
kaloosa and is tied with Jacksonville
for third place, with percentage OF

and the leaders margin over Burling-
ton and the other teams below was
further reduced.
For thirteen innings of fast, clean
play Marshalltown and Keokuk went
grabbed the one run needed, and held
keokuk, in the same inning, without a
score. Brilliant fielding and steady,
effective pitching on both sides added
inning to inning without a score. In
fielding the winners played the better
game, the only mistake chargeable be-
ing by Slapnicka. who, however, had
ten assists and two putouts to his
credit.
Both Slapnicka, who was in the box
for Kennedy, and Rodebaugh, who
worked for Keokuk, pitched most ex-
cellent games, and from the results of
celene games, and from the results
the efforts of each was on par. Both
