According to a story published II

ed. This will include the Office at
Keokuk, which was to have been

is the Des Moines Registers story:
Adjutant General Guy Es1ogan Sat
urday issuedsorders to eleven recruit
ing officers stationed in thu principal
cities OF Iowa to report. at the mob
ilization camp at Des Moines. for dis
charge.
This action was taken on instruc-
tons issued by the war department.
1t is believed that the Washington
officials have abandoned the plan to
recruit the Iowa regiments to the
maximum war strength. It is prob
able that one recruiting officer Will
be stationed at Fort DEB MQfnes to

MAY ELECTRIFY
BRANCH LINE
Fort Madison Thinks That ottumwa
Line Of Burlington May be
Made Smokeiess.

A plan to electrify the Fort Madi.
son-Ottumwa branch is now being
considered by the Burlington railroad,
according to the Fort Madison Gem
City. Engineers of the Company are
now employed in checking up the
cost of the conversion OF the line and
it is very probable that the movement
will be adopted A survey of the
branch was made by electrical and
civil engineers some time ago with a
view Of determining the cost and ad.
vantages of converting the road.
According to adtices here the move
ment seems practically assured, The
operations Of the branch with steam
has never given what may be consid-
cred as entire satisfaction although
the line has been in constant opera
ton since it was built as narrow
guage back in the 70's.
The plan of electrifying the road
will, 1t is believed by the railroad
company, present many advantages to
the railroad company. The road will
always be open for the running of
steam propelled, trains, but the opera
lions will be confined as, far as spos-
sible to electricity. The use of cleo
trfcity will be form of economy to
the railroad company. it is declared.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-Carrying

both branches of congress by the

The largest previous army appro-
priation was s101 600 900 made last

vital parts of the BILL Senator LaF'ol-
lettes's fight to make it impossible
for boy OF 10 TO enlist in the army
or national guard from which he
might be drafted into the army with
out his parents consent, was stricken
out
Foreign pay will be allowed soldiers
and guardsmen only If they actually
cross the Mexican border. Senator
