BUILT $50 MILE ROAD IN HOUR
 Ten Thousand Iowa Farmers Turn
 Out with Teams for Job

The greatest piece of road building the world ever witnessed was pulled of i'll Iowa last week. when. i'll the short space Of one single hour, line of road 3s0 miles in length and stretch ing entirely across the state of Iowa was put ill the most perfect condition of any road west of the Mississippi river, says a Council Bluffs (IoWa.) j letter to the Pittsburg Gazette-Times Weeks and months were spent ill preparation for the work. but not d pick nor shovel Was used until the designated second ticked of Then. as if by magic, Ia. .o0o workmen swarm ed out unto the roadway and when they ceased work sixty minates later Iowa had one of the finest l0ng.dis- tance roads in the entire West
 And not the least interesting thing in connection with the tremendous piece Of work is the fact that not a man of the entire 10000 engaged on the work received one cent of wages Good will and patriotism alone is re- Sponsihle for the splendid showing
 Last winter the Iowa roads became so tearfQlly bad that traffic was practi cally killed and farmers were compel led simply To remain in their homes Finally the matter became | political question and both parties got behind the movement Governor Carroll call ed good roads meeting al DeS Moines early last March and out of the meeting Was enyoyed the plan of d "river-to-riyer road. stretching from Council Bluffs on thc Missouri river. 10 Davenport on the Mississippi d dis fan.p If mi Q sf rqllrlf 4tsrFs.. tIs state from east 10 west

 Instead of appointing new commit tees to handle the work. the regular Republican and Democratic commit tees in each county through which the road Wo4ld pass were appealed 10 The chairmen of the committees of each party were asked 10 get in the game and work for the road Every body agreed to do so and soon I rival ry Was created between Republican and Democrats, each to see which party would have the most wOrkmen son the lob when the time for work arrived.

 In the weeks preceding the work all bridges and cuiyerls along the road were repaired and put in first class or der. that no delay might come to the road builders when once the latter started working

BRITISH CONSOLS
FALL TO 70 ga
firmneSS of Money Market Makes
Positive Force on Side of
Depression
INTERIOR DEMAND EXPANDS
Stiffening of Call Rate Regarded
as Preliminary to Higher
Rates Next Week
Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-The waning
influence of some of the factors which
have been relied on to left and hold
the prices of stocks became evident in
today's market. The growing firmness
of the money market made a more
positive force on the side of depression.
The technical position was in favor
of the party of reaction as a result
of the accumulation of holdings in the
course OF the advance with no other
purpose than to resell at a profit. Such
selling was heavy at times, but closing
prices were above the lowest. The in
terror demand for currency has eX-
banded again Unexpectedly this week
This meets the necessity for prepara-
tons for November l settlements,
which include the maturity of large OBJ
legations in London.
The stiffening Of the call money rate
yesterday and today is looked upon as
a mere preliminary to higher rates next
week. 1t is suspected that the rise in
the discount rate in London is having
the effect of inducing transfer of Cana
dian bank balances, which are large in
New York, to the London market.
The fall in British consols to rs ga
marked so rapid a decline in that Sc
curity as to demoralize investment is
sues.
Bonds were steady; sales, par value.
$2,574,000. United states bonds, were
unchanged on call.

vantage Of the carelessness of the jail
ers at the new county Jail in leaving
a trap door to the roof unlocked James
