Des Moines Rive, to Montrcse

The chart carried by Engineer Jud.
son, is quite minute in detail for one
of its kind, showing every point to be
considered in reconstruction of the
road bed between the Des Moines
river and Montrose. That the engi-
neers are taking much time in maxi
ing their plans is due to the fact, that
after location is decided on, it is
proposed to make that final. It has
been made clear, that should the
tracks be left on the levee and con.
tinue north. the bluff must be used
for the location of them, although this
would mean much expense each year,
In keeping up the right of way, on ac-
count of the bluffs and other natural
conditions which follow it.

Back Into the Station.

The blue prints of Engineer Judson
show that the plans make for an eight
foot elevation above the tracks now in
front Of the union depot. The present
grade would not be regained if that
plan was used, until about the foot
of Timea street was reached. Then
the trains coming from the north
would be backed into the station.
Whether an elevated structure would
have to be used the engineers were I'm.

stated that If salaries were due and
were not paid, it gave cause of action

them, but the bond paying fund was

Trying to locate a main line. That
is what Engineer H. D. Judson and
his assistant surveying engineers are
doing at the present time without any
marked success. The problem is a
puzzling one, as there are four or five
ways to solve it, and just which one
will cost the least money to the G..
B. & @. railroad company, is the one
which will be taken.
This morning, to Gate City repre-
sentative the plans and blue
prints of the proposed main line from
this city to Montrose, after the tracks
have been changed, were shown, by
Engineer Judson. The chart unfold
ed shows probably one of the best
plans for the laying of the tracks be
tween Keokuk and Montrose Whether
they will be used or not, remains With
the head engineers of the railroad
company. At present the engineers
in the city are trying to locate
main line.
To Eliminate Curve.
Engineer Judson stated today, that
in laying the tracks north of the city,
the curve which it was first antici-
pated, would be the best way to bring
the trains into the union depot, will
be avoided as much as possible, and
If so, will be left out altogether. The
small stock unloading pen of the @
near the lower ice house Of the Missi-
ssippi Coal and Ice Company, and
about a hundred yards below the end
of the first lock, is to be the center
of the road bed after the tracks have
been relaid.
The plans show that the tracks will
be laid on the side of the bluff but
will not be forty feet above the pres
ent ones as was first planned to
make them, twenty-five feet, being
nearer the raised level than forty.

OBJECTION TO TRANSFER
OF LICENSE SUSTAINED,
Louis Papera Wins in Contention
Against Brewing Company.

In the case of Louis Papera, a sa-
loonkeeper at rs Sixth avenue, against
the Essex County Brewing Company,
the latter being ordered to show cause
before vice-Chaneellor Stevens today
why 1t should not be restrained from
transferring a license to Peter Cal
cogue, across the street, the vice-chan-
cellor ordered that the brewing com
pany should not transfer the license,
and that the Board of Excise must not
grant the transfer.
Judge Charles r. Herr, attorney for
the brewing company, brought out the
fact that the legal fight was between
the Fiegenspan Brewing Company and
the Essex County Brewing Company.
He said Papera gave his company a
power of attorney to do what 1t pleased
with the license for the saloon when
the company advanced to him $500 to
pay for the license. After paying s34i
Papera refused to pay any more, and
the company exercised its power of at

Excise for a transfer of the license to
Peter Calcogue. Then Papera, who had
begun to take beer from the Fiegen
span Brewing Company, offered to pay
the balance due, and the Essex County
Brewing Company refused to accept it.
Judge Herr said Papera's license ex-
pires August 8.
