that they might confer and that
the former could continue an in
spection of the re-ballasting along

with conditions as he found them
on the Missouri division, over
which MI. Cannon exercises SUI
p~ervision. The work is going on
much more rapidly than most folk,

the end of the heated season and
it is being pushed to the very linn

be graveled and ballasted before
fall. Superintendent Cannon is
getting out forty cars OF gravel a
day now. He will be getting out
sixty cars before the end of the
week and by June Goth will be
transporting ninety cars daily. He
says there is no reason for any
man or team between st. Louis

ploying every man he can find who
will work. Mr.. Cannon is starting
another clam she'll at Irondale and
he has more than $50 men at work
east and south of Bismarck, be-
tween that point and Belmont. He
wants many more, just as many
as he can fnd.-Popldr Bluff Repub-
