DAWSON'S BRAIN HELD
SOLUTION OF PROBLEM
Compromise Reached by House Com
mittee on Naval Affairs Over
reorganization.

Washington, Feb. 1O.-The long
drawn out dispute in the house com
mittee on naval AFFAIRS over the SUBJ
ject of endorsing the plan OF Secretary
Meyer for the reorganization of the
navy is practically settled. it was
stated yesterday, and the committee
will take action next week which will
be in effect a tentative approval Of
the secretary's ideas. The secretary
will be given the opportunity TO dem
onstrate during the next year the
worth of his plans. Representative
Dawson of Iowa furnished the sugges-
ton by which the committee and the
secretary reached a common under
standing Under Mr.. Dawson's plans,
which it is expected the committee
will adopt, the appropriations for 1911
will be made under the old system.
but Secretary Meyer will be vested
with authority to distribute the -expen-
ditures as he may see fit. To guard
against a diversion of funds from
their proper channels, 1t will be re-
quired that the money be spent solely
for the purpose intended by cor gress.

HOPE TO OPEN LINE

Rock Island Southern officials Ex-

Promoters of the Rock Island South
ern have set Memorial day as the pros
pective date for the opening of cleo

city and Monmouth. 1t is hoped to be-
gin the work of ballasting the track
with gravel taken from the pit near
Milan the first of next month. Only q
few miles of track at the southern end
of the line are to be laid and a few
details needed to complete the bridges.
and then it will be possible to run
steam trains the full length of the
road. Some freight will probably be
hauled from the time the road is open
ed. in addition to the coal, which is
now being brought to this city, but
no attempt will be made to take care
of passenger traffic till the interurban
cars are placed in operation.

May Alter First Program.

Rumors have been flying about to
the effect that the Moline Plow com
pany had abandoned the old Gordon
tract. in the east part of Rock Island,
as q site for one or more of it's branch
factories. There is no official founda-
ton for these reports. 1t is true that
the company, as stated in The Argus
of last evening. proposes the erection
of two huge buildings adjoining it's
main plant in Moline contingent on
permit of the city council there to lay
an essential railroad switch track
along Third avenue. If this track is
allowed, as doubtless it viii. the COM
pany may alter its general plans for
the centering of it's manufacture as far
as possible in the vicinity of its main
plant. In that event the Monitor Drill
company factory. which is to be moved
here from Minneapolis next fall. may
occupy a part of the new buildings
proposed in Moline instead of the Cor
don tract. as first determined.
Is Speculation Purely.
But this is speculation purely. The
directors of the company have not
reached any decision in the matter
Certain it is the company does not in
tend to let the large tract of property
it has recently acquired in the east
part of Rock Island lie idle. If it does
not locate the Monitor Drill plant there
it will occupy it with some other equal
" important factory The Moline
Pillow company, in its request of the
Moline city council. is in very much
the same position as is the Rock ISL
and Pillow company with the local coun-
ell and the council there is
very apt to meet the require
ments in the same public spirit that
the Rock Island council is the request
of the Rock Island industry.

Is Good News Here.

The recommendation of the national

600, 900 appropriation for the .Missis-
sippi between St. Paul and St Louis
was good news to the United States
engineers office in this city, from
which the work on the upper Missis-
sippi is directed under Major C. S.
Richie.
Major Richie would liked to have had
$1,500,00O. but the allowance of $780,
600 additional over the usual annual
allotment will aid him considerably in
the execution of his plans. one feature
of which is the building of four more
steamers and three additional large
suction dredges 10 bring his plant to
the needed capacity and efficiency.
The three extra dredges will give each
of the eight river divisions a dredge,
and will thereby save the time here
tofore' consumed in transferring equip
ment from one division to another
With the enlarged plant Major Richie
would be in position to profitably ex-
pend annually 100000 in his terri
tory. the greater portion of the funds
to be devoted to the six-foot perma-
nent channel project from the head
waters to the mouth of the Missouri

At last the hens have come 20 the
rescue and we are now paying but
80 cents a dozen for strictly fresh
eggs. Two weeks ago the prices were
40 to so cents pr dozen. The hens.
though, are not the only ones TO be
thanked. The weather man must re-
ceive his due share also. For tho
past two weeks the weather has been
rather mild after the severe tenn
perature OF December and early jan
uary. The dealers say If we have
another week Of mild weather right
now, chances are that eggs will go
so low that we will be ashamed to
take them for the price. The whole
sale price at present is 26 cents and
if we should have this week of mild
weather the price would probably
drop to 90 cents.
The price OF dairy and creamery
butter has also dropped a few cents
a pound.

IN WAR ON WOLVES
Eugene Smith, Drury Hunter,
Delivers Four More
Scalps.
ARE OF TIMBER VARIETY
Pack Plays Havoc Among Live Stock
ON Farms in Vicinity of
Drury.

This winter has proved a banner
one for hunters in the lower end of
the county around Drury on account
OF the large number OF wolves which
have made their rendezvous there this
year. One man alone has claimed
STA In bounties for scalps and there
are several hunters who have. secured
snug sums from the treasury of the
county for like services.
Eugene Smith, q young hunter who
Is living in Drury township, is the
one who leads In number Of wolves
killed He brought IN four more scalps
today and received a check for $40
which raised his earnings from this
source to STA since September. He
has killed in all % old wolves and II
young ones. A majority of these were
timber wolves, variety seldom seen
In this vicinity before this year. It
seems that a whole pack Of them came
from somewhere, presumably from the
north, where forest fires drove them
out, and decided to make their home
here during the winter months.
Do Much Damage.
This pack OF wolves has done no
small amount OF damage during the
season and the farmers who own sheep
and goats have suffered greatly from
their depredations. One farmer lost
20 sheep and goats in one night and
numerous smaller raids have been
made.
One of the four wolves which Smith
claimed bounties on today was a big
one, the equal of which has seldom
If ever been seen around here. Smith
says he thinks it was at least 10 years
old, and that 1t must have had any
number of encounters with man from
the marks and scare on fits hide.
