COMMITTEE WILL
DRAFT ROAD BILL
Propose InterCOunty Highway
System Fer Ohio.

Columbus, o., March 16.-As the
result of a meeting of representative
farmers and business men of the
state held here, committee was
appointed to draft bill to be intro
ducod in the legislature providing
for an appropriation of $4,000 with
which to make surveys and plans for
proposed intercounty system of
highways for Ohio.
The committee is composed OF
Messrs. w. A. Alsdorf, chairman, of
Johnstown; Walter Braun and
George w. Lattimer, Columbus; N.
N. Thornilly, Marietta; l.. T.. Hatch,
Dayton; d. T. Perry, Cleveland; Al.
len Patterson, Lima; ]. G. Barbour,
Canton; L. G. Spencer Niles; T. C.
Laylin, Norwalk; c. S. Kelly, Spring
field; G. w. Bloom, New Paris, and
d. S. Humphrey, Cleveland.
The plan is TO pave the way for a
system which will be continuous, and
touch all county seats and trade CEN
ters. These highways, in turn, would
connect with others of similar ma
ture, which are in course of construc.
or in contemplation by other states
The major portion of the money
with which the proposed intercounty
system of highways would be built
according to present plans, would be
contributed by the state. The coun
ties would be called on for small
proportion of the cost and the abut
ting properties, with certain possible
exceptions, for very small proper
ton.

San Antonio, March 1G.-With the
arrival of the Ninth cavalry and the
Fourth field artillery, both from Fort

ization Of the division army under
command Of General William II. Car.
ter which was ordered nine days

sudden contingency that may arise
south of the Rio Grande or to fulfill
the more sedate requirements OF

Before the last of the field artillery
battalion had been detralned, four
cars Of field piece projectiles from
the Frankfort arsenal in Philadelphia
pulled into the yards as part of the
general supply train. On the side OF
each of the ammunition cars was a
large white sign marked "emer-

approaching crisis in the northern

plentiful. Some indications Of what

One Of these officials said that he
had just been advised by the New
