|. c. to Change Work Hours.

Waterloo, July 2.-Notice was re-
ceived by Master Mechanic Bell this
morning that commencing July / the
shopmen employed here by the Illinois
Central would work nine hours. The
new rule goes into effect Thursday
morning, and after working eight hours
for many months tie men all welcome
the change. The car repairers have
been working ten hours a day for some
time On account of scarcity of help
and the great number of damaged
cars that have accumulated here. The
time of the repairers will not be af-
fected, but they will continue to labor
ten hours day as heretofore.

COMPLIANCE OF LAW.
Great Western Serves Notice lntoxI-
eating Liquors VIII Not Be Serv-
ed on Trains After July 4

FIT Dodge, July 1.-The Great West
ern officials are In receipt of a com
munication from General Passenger
Agent ]. P. Elmer, which reads that In
compliance of the law of Iowa passed
at the last session Of the state legis-
lature, which becomes effective July /,
intoxicating liquors on railroad trains
running wholly within the state, must
neither be sold nor carried but the
law makes the distinction that on
through trains that pass through Iowa
liquor may be carried but it shall not
be served while the train is in the
state Of Iowa.
The above law may be stated as
distinct victory for the prohibitionists
of the state as heretofore liquor has
been sold on all buffet cars. The
law passed by the last legislature Is
specific and clearly states that the
sale Of liquors on railroad trains with
in the state must cease after July /.

SURVEYING FOR COAL ROAD.

Ogden, July 2.-Recently the report
became current that the Fort Dodge,
Des Moines & Southern Interurban
railway company had purchased the
coal mines north of Ogden and would
soon take possession. The report has
not been confirmed, but it is generally
believed to be true. Along with this
report came the one that the interur-
ban people would run spur of their
line down to the coal fields. This now
seems to be the case, for the COM
pany has placed a gang of civil engin-
GERS in the field and they are working
from Fraser down to Ogden. The line
will be constructed without delay, so
that the company can get into direct
communication by rail with the new
possessions.
