10 make certain other improvements
and extensions, and for this purpose it
was desired to lay an additional track
along one of the down Town streets.
And the aldermen refused the desired
permission.
AS result the company explained
to Rock Island what was wanted, and
arrangements were easily made to
establish the plant here, the adj
ditional track on Moline avenue
being readily given. Rock Island
has always been inclined to look with
favor on any institution which pro
poses to advance the city commercially
and industrially, and the addition OF
the car shops was welcomed.
1t is hard to estimate what value
the shops are TO the city, and what
Davenport has lost, but it is certain
that through these shops the company
has in a very quiet way spent approx

has done all Of its repair work, giving
