nois. millionaire owner OF sixty differ
ent public utilities plants thruout the

city Wednesday afternoon looking over
the Jones & Hoyey plant and the city.
MI Mckinley was accompanied 70 the
city by Mr.. H. E. Chubbuck, Of Peoria,
general manager OF all the Mckinley
interests.
Has No Deal On.
Mr. Mckinley said that he had no
deal on in MarshalItown. but that three
or four years ago he had been here to
look over the plant 70 see If he could
use il, and decided finally that he dldn, :
want IL. Because it was convenient for
him 10 stop here, while on his way 10
Washington from Topeka, Kan. he
telegraphed Jones < Hovey that he
would be here Wednesday afternoon.
Messrs. Jones & Hovey were al the
depot to meet Mr.. Mckinley. who, with
Mr.. Chubbuch, got off OF a front sleep
er and went directly 70 the lunch room.
Neither Jones nor Hovey knew the con-
gresham, and after following one man
up street. thinking he might be Mchin-
an illustrious name Il was then de-
cided that Mckinley had not arrived.
Later Mr.. Mckinley showed up at the

s, Hovey die not let the T.-R. in on the
fact that their man mad appeared.

publican. after asserting that he did
not have a deal on here. that he did not
want to interfere with the city if il
was conducting negotiations. as he had
been Informed after reaching here.
The world IS big" said Mr.. Mckinley.
But there is one thing do want TO
say" said Mr.. Mckinley, and that is
that no one ought to even figure on
buying this plant without putting in
$4,000 in Improvements in one, TWO
and three years. Jones & Hovey have
put in some needed Improvements, and
1 would judge thai they have probably
cost somewhere around $4,000. The
machinery they have put in is good.
bur this town as near as I can judge,
and I believe il is cracking good
town, could easily stand for $50, 600
more Improvements 70 the plant to
make it what it should be"
