Attacks war Department.

The present bridge company attack
ed the war department for its permits
sion to the power company to carry
cut its project and also attacked the
officials OF the water power company,
Mr.. Joy said.
The inter-city bridge Is not being
backed by the Water Power company
as many people think. The inter-city
bridge will be operated entirely by the
Inter-C City Bridge company. The Wat
er Power company built the piers, It
is true These piers were built at a
time when 1t seemed as II the per-
mission to throw a bridge across the
forebay would be granted and before
water was let into the forebay. It
was not granted last winter, and the
Water Power company abandoned its
idea OF a switch from the Iowa side.
It constructed a double track on the
dam, and made arrangements with
the Wabash to handle its power house
equipment through Hamilton and into
the house via the dam. II the bridge
is built now, it must be through the
efforts Of the people Of Keokuk and
Hamilton.
cummins Praised.
Mr.. Joy praised Senator Cummins
for his interest In the measure before
the committee. He said that he found
the senior senator was we'll informed
as to all phases Of the question and
that in his speech before the COM
mittee he showed himself conversant
with all angles of the matter. Sena-
tor Cummins has assisted the Inter
City Bridge company to great ex-
tent
Congressman Kennedy, also has
been of service to the company, Mr..
Joy declared. He said that Kennedy
has worked as hard as he could In
the house for the measure.
The status of the bill now lis that 1t
may be passed in the senate this
week. This will mean that 1t will not
rass the house until the next session.
Passing the senate a second time will
give the measure NUN greater
strength, it is believed
For Railroads Only.
The officials of the Intsr-City
Bridge company believe that the pres,
emit Keokuk and Hamilton bridge will
be sufficient for highway travel and
interurban use and the new bridge
will be used entirely for railroads.
Ait present fifteen trains. and fifteen
interurbans cross the old bridge be-
tween 700 a. m. and $40 p. m, the
busy hours of the day. If it We're MOI
! that the rule about not allowing 9TH
er traffic on the bridge ten minutes
before train time was violated, con-
| tlhtions would be unbearable at pres
emit. Mr.. Joy also emphasized the
| fact that the present bridge Will
stand in the way of other railroads
] entering Keokuk, as they will not
trust their equipment to the present
spans.
IF we have a new bridge here as
we hope to have said Mr.. Joy this
morning, I'VE will have to get 1t our
selves. The power company is moi
pushing the project, and we canno,
hope for it's cooperation unless per
mission to build is granted by con
gress very Soon"

G. r. Joy Returns From Hear
ing Before Sub Commit
tee Of Commerce Com
mittee of Senate.
MEANS MUCH TO KEOKUK
Officers Of Old Bridge Appear
Before Body in Effort to
Oppose Favorable
Action.

City Bridge company, has returned
from Washington where he repre-.
scented the bridge company, the Keo.
kuk Industrial Association, the city
OF Hamilton, which delegated the
power through its council, and the
Business Mems club of Hamilton, at
a meeting Of the subcommittee OF the
senate commerce committee on Friday
at Washington.
| The bridge bill was passed by the
senate at its short session last winter
but failed to pass the house. 1t was
introduced then by Senator Cullom
! OF Illinois. 1t was reintroduced at the
special session by Senator A. B
Cummins of Iowa and may be re
ported for passage to the senate
which closes this week.
Senator Cummins assures me that
he expects the bill will be passed.
Mr.. Joy stated this morning.
At the hearing before the sub-com.
mittee, G. R. JOY, Senator Albert B.
Cummins and Congressman c. A. Ken,
nedy spoke in favor Of the measure
Theodore Gilman, secretary-treasurer
Of the Keokuk and Hamilton Bridge
company, and John H. Cole appeared
against It.
The proposed inter-city bridge will
not be highway bridge. 1t will be
for railroad traffic only. This was
brought out at the hearings held prev.
fously as we'll as at the one last
week. The bill which is known as
s. F. 1913 distinctly states that 1t is
an act for a railroad bridge.
In the hearing last week. Gilman
told the committee that the present
IhrIdge over the river was completed
iii 1871 at cost OF $S50,0o0 A mil
i lion dollars worth OF stock was sold
for ss50,000 and a million dollars in
bonds given to the stockholders as q
bonus, the interest on the bonds being
guaranteed by four railroads. A. little
questioning brought out the fact that
three Of the roads went into the hands
LOT receivers, and that the bridge com
pany Is now owing back interest te
the amount Of s1.2oo,O0O, SO that the
liabilities of the Keokuk and Hamilton
Bridge Co. now amount to $4,000, 900
Need Of New Bridge.
The present bridge company tool
the stand, according to Mr.. Joy, tha
It was able to handle all Of the busi
ness offered 1t. Mr.. Joy suggested
that perhaps this was perfectly true
as probably the railroads did not wisl
to risk their equipment on an old ant
unsafe bridge, to any greater extern
than did the bridge company it

&. w. runs its regular equipment t
Hamilton and then uses light engin
to bring the cars across the bridge
l: was claimed by the bridge compan
that the Wabash has no bette
bridge over the Illinois river.
This statement Mr.. Joy puncture
when he suggested that the Wabasl
had shown disposition to improv
its line to Keokuk just as soon as
bridge sufficient to warrant the intro
duction Of such improvements coul
he secured.

Hen is Not Responsible.

WASHINGTON, Nov. PA call to
ali citizens to operate with him in his
attack on the cold storage trust
which he holds responsible for the pres.
ent extortionate IAees in eggs, butter
and meats, was issued today by Rep
lresentative Mcclellan, Of Tennessee.
II am convinced that the hen is not
to blame for the shortage of eggs" he
declared. Il am in possession of
facts which to my mind are sufficient
to form foundation for any steps
that the department of justice may
take in prosecuting those responsible
tor the present condition of affairs. .
when few men form a corner on
food necessities, robbing the public
without regard to conditions which
arise and disregard suffering which
may arise, 1t is inexcusable. / have
been told by leaders of the house that
| 1t is impossible to get congress to
take any steps against the food trust
until the regular convention in De-
cember. will then press my resolu-
ton.
| McKellar's remedy to prevent a
corner, is law which will prevent
holding food products in cold storage
for longer period than ninety days.

WELL-KNOWN MISSOULA WOMAN
PASSES PEACEFULLY TO
HER REWARD.

A message bearing the sad news Of
the death of Mrs. f. c. Reitz at Roch-
ester, Mimi, was received here. yester-
day, death having occurred at 1880
past WI months. Her condition be-
came so critical during latter part
of December that it was decided to
take her to Rochester for treatment
and perhaps an operation. She left
Missoula with her husband n
daughter on Christmas day but failed
to secure relief there and little hope
of her recovery had been entertained
by the relatives. At the bedside,
when death came were the husband
and daughter Edith, her father n
two sisters Mrs. Hurley and Mary
Page. Two sisters of Mr.. Reitz were
also present. The message stated
that death came peacefully and hat

son, Zaner Reitz, who remained at
home here. Definite word concern
ing h funeral arrangements was not
received last night.
"o' = |"'' .
She was born near Boone, Iowa, and
taught school there a lumber of years
before coming west. She vas a grad
uate of Highland Park college, Des
Mfoines, Iowa, and came to Montana
first as a teacher, when Mr.. Reitz
opened a business college in Ana
conda in 1892. In the fail of that
year, h married Mr.. Reitz, the
ceremony taking place at her old home
in Iowa, and then came to Missoula,
where. Mr.. Reitz opened the Garden
City Commercial college in 1898.
Since that time she had lived in Mis-
soula continuously and had a host Of
friends, who will mourn her loss. In
addition to the relatives mentioned,
Mrs. Reitz leaves a brother, Guy
Thompson. a merchant at Whitefish,
Mont.
The nature of Mrs. tReitz's illness
had not been entirely diagnosed at
the time of her death and she had not
submitted to an operation.

The annual January clearance sale

said j. B. Armstrong of the firm last
evening. 'our sale has opened up
much better thar we expected. We
have had all we could do to care for
our customers, today and a glance at

the cheering fact that we sold more
goods today than on the opening day
of n sale we nave ever had. Things
look promising for a most successful
sale"
The entire stock of the b. & A.
store has been especially arranged for
his sale and it is in such shape that
everything is in sight and a selection
can be quickly and i%ntelligently made.
