HERE TO EXPLAIN
THE new SYSTEM
Rock Islands Telegraph Superintend-
ent Gives Demonstration Of Teie-
phone Dispatching.

]. G. Jennings. superintendent of
the telegraph service of the Rock Is
land, is in the city from Chicago today,
and this afternoon at O'Clock held a
meeting at the Office of the division
superintendent, for the purpose of DEM
onstrating the new operating system
of the roadin use on the Illinois divis-
ion. The company now employees the
long distance telephone for train dis
patching on the Illinois division, and
this system is to be extended to other
lines. Mr.. Jennings is here to give
practical lesson to the company's en-
ployes and others interested in the
subject. Many of the leading railways
of the country are abandoning the tel
egraph and adopting the telephone for
train dispatching, and the results OBJ
tanned are said to be highly satisfac-
tory.

WILL EXAMINE
THE BALLOTS
Council This Evening Will Consider
Filter Plant Project in a
Formal Manner.
SOME VOTES ARE CAST
Expression, However, is Not General
Resolution Adopted in Committee
to Be Reported.

The city council this evening is to
examine the results of the straw vote
on the filter project. The city clerk
today received some votes, and others
have been turned in at the newspaper
Offices, but the expression is not gen.
eral. due to the fact that there is no
great difference of opinion in the mat
ter, and that the ballot proposition was
not discussed for a sufficient length OF
time.
Council FavOrs Plan.
The council will act formally on the
resolutions adopted at the committee
of the whole meeting last Thursday.
The aldermen at that time were all in
favor of the filter project, although
Aldermen Smith and McNealy quail
fed their votes by stating that they
would favor the plan unless general
opposition was shown by the straw
ballot.
The other matters taken up in the
committee meeting will be formally re.
ported to the council session.
