DAVENPORT WATER
POWER PROJECT
English Capitalists are Said to Be In
terested in the Proposition and
VIII Invest.

Davenport Times: That the Daven-
port water power project has advanc-
ed several notches nearer the reality
stage is the development of the past
few days. r. c. Campbell, a promin-
ent eastern broker, who has millions
of capital at his command for invest
ment in financial propositions that
look good to him and the interests
which he represents, has been in
Davenport for the last few days, look
ing over the local situation. Mr..
Campbell was highly elated with the
prospects indicated in the plans drawn
up for the Davenport Water Power
company, and through nothing def
mite has yet been done, he left this
city last night well pleased with the
outlook.
Though Mr.. Campbell did not care
to discuss his intentions publicly, he
was not adverse to talking over the
proposition with his intimate friends
in this city. It is claimed that he
proposes to send English engineers to
Davenport to look over the plans and
to back up the Judgment that he has
already formed of the proposition. If
these engineers, who are in the en-
pioy Of the moneyed interests which
he represents. are satisfied that the
water power project will be paying
proposition, 1t will then be but mat
ter of few hours when the money
will be forthcoming from England's
capital.
Mr.. Campbell during his stay here,
has qui ,t.y reviewed all the water
power plans with Engineer Charles
Francis. He was enthusiastic over
the prospect, and feels satisfied that
as soon as he thoroughly explains the
project to the English capitalists,
whom he represents, and the English
engineers place their o. X, on the
plans, the money win be forwarded at
once.
It is estimated that It will cost
about s2,0oo,0oo to place the Daven.
port water power plant in operation.
The present franchise secured from
the government expires on April 10 Of
next year and it Is accordingly nee
essary to take some definite action as
soon as possible. As the government
by recent legislation has indicated
that these franchises will not be
awarded In the future as easily as
they have been in the past. the pro-
moters Of the water power project are
anxious to get busy before their rights
expire. Mr.. Campbell's visit to Daven-
port is accordingly one that is looked
upon as decidedly important in finan-
cial circles. The capitalists whom he
represents have the money and they
are ready to invest 1t as soon as they
are assured that the proposition Is to
be profitable one. Mr.. Campbell, ac-
cording to statements which he made
to his friends, seems well satisfied
that it can't be otherwise.

GOTCH WILL HAVE
TO TRAIN HARD
is Little Soft From His summer's
Work and Needs Plenty Of
Conditioning.

When Frank Gotch started training
Monday afternoon for his coming
matches in Chicago, says dispatch
from that city, he discovered that he
did not have day to spare, as the
entire summers rest had put him in
worse condition than he had expected.
So he will have to work hard to be
in shape for the Raicevich match at
the coliseum November 9. as well as
for the minor bouts he has on at the
Empire theater tomorrow night and
at Riverview rink Monday night.
Gotch Is not much overweight, but
finds that even some hard work on
his Iowa farm during the summer did
not keep him in shape for a wrestling
bout. The champion found this out
m his first bout with Charley Cutler.
The latter, already In grand condi-
ton, mauled the champion around Sc
verely and only Gotchs supreme clev-
erness saved him from much rough
work at times.
Just few more days of this and
little running on the road to get my
wind In perfect shape will fit me for
a hard match" the big champion re-
marked yesterday at the Illinois Ath-
letic club gymnasium. "My kealth Is
perfect, but am not hard enough just
now to stand big strain such as
big man like Raicevich might put me
to. Plenty of gymnasium work and
the matches have taken on at the
Empire and at Riverview will fix me
UP fine"

ter over that way than in any other
direction from his down town ouar-
ters.

day. developed that the rumor was
without foundation.
Charges that the men had neglected
their duty in falling TO have property
transferred from the safe in the De-
tective Bureau TO the custody Of the
property clerk were preferred by Chief
Clerk Hesse. but Major Sylvester said
this morning that after a personal in
vestigation Of the matter he had oder
ed the charges dismissed.
Major sylvester and Mr.. Hesse both
denied emphatically that the charges
conveyed Tho slightest suggestion of any

Major sylvester said that he had not
learned whether the cases in connection
with which the property was being held

would simply be neglect of duty.
