laid down their arms before the arrival
OF the troops In order TO return to their
homes. At other places n majority OF
those disarmed prefer internment 10 being

The population generally has received
our troops in friendly manner, and in
some instances with ceremony Riots
such as occurred at Podgoritza ceased as

neer seeing the other before the two

over the right-of-way, but collapsed.
Fixing the Blame.
OXFORD, Neb., Jan. 24.-(Special rele-
gram. 1.-THE wreck of passenger train No
and an extra freight on the Burlington
this afternoon is regarded here as the
fault of the local freight crew.
They got orders at Mascot. but were
supposed to keep off all passenger trains
time. They. pulled out of Mascot on No
rs time and the collision occurred about
mile and half out OF Atlanta.
Recent Shakeup in Crews.
There has been quite a shake up in
train crews of late and 1t has caused
considerable confusion. The freight was
in charge of Conductor Brooks? formerly
on a passenger, and both brakemen were
former conductors set back.
The wreck will probably be cleared so
that traffic may be resumed about 10:0O
tonight.
This was the first day for a daily local
freight and It was manned by new
crew.

TO BUILD PLANT
FOR FILTRATION.
Experimental Station win
Have Daily Capacity Of
$4,000 Gallons

An experimental filtration plant
will be Operated by the water board
early In the summer In connection
with the pumping station. Plans are
now being made for the plant along
the lines suggested by X. w. Pratt.
the Ohio filtration plant expert. In
the construction Of the Clevsisnd a.
tratiou plant. Theodore A. Lei
sen. engineer employed by the DE
troit board. has made an exhaustive
study of filtration. and the board
will rely on his knowledge to pro
duce an experimental station that
will properly filter the water and
make Il safer for drinking purposes.
Commissioner Robert OAkman and
others have advocated the construc.
ton of a filtration plant in connec-
ton with the Detroit pumping sta
tion for the past several years. The
experimental plant will cost be-
tween $1,000 and $4,000. BY the end
Of the summer the board will know
just what kind OF q large filtration
plant will be needed to adequately
protect Detroit's water spply. The
cost of filtration plants depends
largely on the quality Of the water.
For instance, q filtration plant on
the banks OF the Mississippi would
cost probably two or three times
what . Detroit plant would. the wa
ter being much clearer and compar-
atively free from excessive contain
nation.
The experiment plant will have q
capacity OF $4,000 gallons a day.
People wishing filtered water for
household use can bring their buck
cts TO the filtration plant and cart
away all the pure water they want.

CLEANED from recent conversations

The Dutch believe Germany has

Nevertheless. the Dutch do not

wrought to her people by continu-

The Tollanders believe both

reached and will be ready FOR peace

Dutch leaders will be satisfied
with this solution. They believe a

other would be detrimental to Hol-

victor would insist on complete con.
