Successful Industrial Commissioners of
the Santa Fe Railroad Here
Preparing a Campaign for
That City.
HAS LOCATED HUNDREDS
His Department VIII Concentrate Its
Energies on Fort Madison for
the Next Few Years,
He Says.

That Fort Madison Is the most fas-
ored city hereabouts was indicated by
the conversation of Wesley Merritt,
industrial commissioner of the Santa
Fe railroad, before leaving Keokuk
for the other county seat last evening.
Mr.. Merritt spent the day here as the
guest of Chief Engineer Cooper who
escorted him over the water power
works. ia%s
An industrial commissioner for the
Santa Fe for fourteen years, Mr..
Merritt has located industries on that
line worth many millions of dollars,
and during the last year put S1S,000.
900 worth of factories on the lines of
his road. The total of his efforts for
his railroad equals enough factories
to consume all the power generated
in the greatest water power in the
world here.
He went from here to Fort Madison
to confer with the Fort Madison First
club executives and to begin a cam
paign to locate factories in that city.
Mr.. Merritt said here that his depart
anent will concentrate its energies on
Fort Madison for the next few years,
believing that it can accomplish more
in that. way in conjunction with the
big water power here and its cheap
power than in any other way. He said
he had never seen the dam works
here before this visit and that he was
tremendously impressed by them and
their certain effect on manufacturing
in the middle west.

TOWNS CUT OFF BY CADRON FLOOD MAIL IS BADLY DELAYED REPORTED THAT ABUTMENTS OF KING BRIDGE HAVE BEEN
 DESTROYED.

Flooded by both excessive headwat- CT and backwater from the Arkansas river, the Cadron creek in this county is overflowed to such an extent that it IS impossible to cross it on any of the roads running north from Conway, except in skiffs. No mail has been brought in the Quitman route or the Bee Branch route, the two princi- pal mail routes running north from the local postoffice, since last Satur- day, the roads and approaches to the bridges having become overflowed Sunday afternoon. A report today states that water is six feet deep on the levee road leading to the King bridge, and the Greenbrier road through the Cadron bottom is said to be flooded even deeper than the Woos- ter road.
 Mail service from Enola and Mt. Vernon is also cut off by overf1ows in the bottoms of Muddy Bayou and traffic has been interfered with in many other portions of the county by smaller streams becoming abnormally swollen.
 An unconfirmed report req ached here today that the abutments on the north side of the new King bridge has been swept away by the food These abutments were built of masonry only about two years ago, and if the re- port is correct the loss is serious one, and weeks will elapse before the stream can be crossed by wagons.
 w. D. Cole, Jr., stated this morn ing that he had carload of eggs en route to Conway in wagons which were waterbound on the other side of the Cadron, and he had no idea when they would reach here
