Believed That Eastern Company VIII
Soon Take Over the keokuk
Public Utilities and I'm
prove the Same.
LENGTHEN FRANCHISES
An Eight Year Extension VIII be
Asked for and Should be Readily
Granted as II Means Much
to the City.

While nothing official has been Civ
en- out by those in authority 1t Is the
general impression and the belief
that the Stone & Webster interests
will soon take over the keokuk public
utilities, provided the city OF keokuk
will extend the present existing fran
c1ises to twenty-five years, which
would be an extension of eight years,
the present rights Of the keokuk util-
tiles running seventeen years. J. A.
TraWick, representing Stone G. Web
stcr, arrived In the city today and he
will, it is stated, have charge of the
local electrical interests. 1t is the in
tention to present to the people as
soon as possible the franchise proposi-
ton, and there Is no doubt but what
the voters will readily support 1t as
the change cannot help but be bene-
fetal to keokuk. The Stone & Web
ster people will discuss the question
of franchise with the city officials and
it is believed that It can be sub
mitted to the voters In a short time.
! Officers of Stone G. Webster have
gone over the local public utilities and
| It is understood a proposition has
been made and that an agreement has
been reached, pending the approval by
the people Of keokuk to the plan Of
extending the franchise.
Stone & Webster are reliable and
large holders Of public utilities and
it will be big boost to Keokuk II
they take over the present utilities
as It will mean an Improvement and
betterment all along the line and the
start of interurban building that will
mean the biggest advancement .th';
city has sustained In Its history.

Daily Grain Letter.

CHICAGO, April 24.-Sentiment
changed last week. The situation in
all grains assuming a new phase The
press has mainly revised its opinions
and believes bulls have even chance.
There are signs that all the advantage
sought by bears is the pleasure OF
covering advantageously. Local corn
supplies will probably be reduced to-
three or four millions in next three
or four weeks. Country is not selling.
Claims are made that middle west
selling wheat. Such sales are neces-
sary.
Visible reports on wheat, corn and
oats today should all be friendly. Last
year the after planting run of corn did
not set in until May 23rd. There ap-
pears little chance of large corn re-
ceipts until after May goth.
The United States May wheat report
will hardly contain a bear surprise.
Conditions will hardly be above S5
or Sc. Provisions are in the grip of
May adjustments.
Hog receipts west are 80 per cent
above last year. Last year after April
% oats receipts were quite liberal.
