INTERURbAL. ::
HAS CHANGED
PLAN Of ROUTE
IOWA cITY.OTTUMWA LINE CUTS
OUT kEoTA AND WELLMAN FOR
FAILURE TO MEET DEMANDS -
OTHER TOWNS WANT IN.

That Keota and Wellman will lose
out in the interurban as planned be-
tween Ottumwa and Iowa City is prac-
tically assured, says Frank Tanner, a
promoter Of the road from Iowa City.
Mr.. Tanner is in Ottumwa in quest OF
certain data that is wanted by r. Q.
Campbell who sails for London De-
cember II, for four weeks trip IN
the interest of the financial end Of the
road. While here Mr.. Tanner stated
that the change in the plans OF the
road from the original survey IS sure
to leave out Keota and Wellman as
well as slice Of the territory adjacent
thereto because of the failure to meet
the obligation made upon that locality
toward the building Of the road Ready
to seize the chance to come in on the
proposed route Of the line, are num-
Der of other places that will also give
the road the benefit of additional
population along its route.
Strikes Good Towns.
The new territory that will be GOV.
cred by the road number such cities
and towns as Harper, Kinross, South
English Sigourney, Hedrick, Highland
Center. Rutledge and the Amish settle
ment near Iowa City The latter has
raised $4,000 and promised 100000
more. The right-of-way is secured
from Iowa City almost to Kinross. The
work of building the road is felt to be
only matter Of time and no doubt
exists as to its construction. A letter
has been received by Mr.. Tanner from
R. C. Campbell who has been looking
after the financial work of the road
and the letter states that Mr.. Camp
bell will sail from New York for Lon
don, December II. He. expects to re-
main some four weeks in London, re-
turning about January Is. While IN
London he will take UP the company's
financial affairs with certain money In
